CBDC Threat Report Video – Live Free Academy (livefree.academy)
 

John Bush may not have gotten the memo that Bitcoin is not worth our time, but I think he's onto Monero and most certainly has kept up with what the US government is doing with crypto. Definitely worth a listen.

The Year in Crypto: War on Digital Privacy - Decrypt (decrypt.co)
 

Good article talking about privacy crypto. Basically, I look at this as positive when anyone discusses privacy in a public forum, since most have completely conceded their rights to privacy in today's society.

Funny, flatpak works on MX, but it kills performance. I launch any flatpak program and it's literally up to five minutes to launch. After re-imaging and using AppImages instead, it's blazing fast. There must be something about the way MX implements flatpaks that screws the pooch.

I've bounced around alot, have numerous distributions on my Proxmox Hypervisor, but my favorite daily driver, for a really old computer, is ( MX Linux ) I've twice tried other distros to see if I could improve upon the stability and performance, as well as the very convenient availability of a feature rich KDE Desktop environment, and I came back to MX twice now. When I get a new fast computer, I'll switch to Qubes OS, for it's built-in hypervisor and security/privacy and isolation features, but until then, I'll stick with MX.

IMHO, there are excellent reasons why MX ranks highest. I think it's original roots in AntiX with the elimination of systemd has afforded it a substantial advantage over stock-standard Debian, my last daily driver which always had performance issues. With MX, on same hardware, system lock ups are far less frequent when the system is overtaxed.

How to mine Monero from CLI wallet using remote host on my local network (monero.town)
 

I have a Proxmox server on my LAN on my home network.

I have one LXC container running Debian 12 and the Monero CLI tools provided at the following URL: (https://downloads.getmonero.org/cli/linux64). All LXC containers referenced herein will be running Debian 12.

On that first container, I run 'monerod' in a screen session, so I can detach and leave it running 24/7. If there is a better way to do this, like having it autostart upon reboot, I would like to learn how to do that, but I will still want to see the live log somehow, maybe using tails on a logfile or something, but I don't know where that logfile is located or how best to view the live status of the daemon.

Also on that first container, I'd like to run the cli wallet and mine Monero on that machine, which I'm not familiar with how to do that using the CLI wallet.

Next, I wanted to create another LXC container that is only running the CLI wallet, but connects to the node running on the first machine. If this is possible and works, I'd do a few more until I max out on CPU and RAM utilization of my Proxmox host.

Lastly, I'd also like to have the blockchain only stored on that one LXC host, so my existing blockchains on my other PC's where I'm running the GUI can be eliminated, if that makes any sense, and have those GUI wallets point to my node running on the first LXC container running the 'monerod' daemon 24/7.

In summary, what I need help with is the following:

  1. How to have 'monerod' autostart on the first LXC container (ip addr: 192.168.10.210)
  2. How to view live view of the monerod daemon doing it's thing
  3. How to mine Monero from the wallet cli on first LXC container
  4. How to mine Monero from the wallet cli on second LXC container (ip addr: 192.168.10.211) that uses a remote node, specified as the first container referenced in step 1 above.
  5. How to configure GUI to mine using the LXC container running the node daemon as a remote node

I'd appreciate any links with instructions that might help me do all or part of what I'm trying to accomplish using the home server. If suggestions prove out on my network, I'm happy to fully document the entire setup, including the steps to configure Proxmox for the community to do the same thing.
