  1. <dEBRUYNE> Devs: Are there plans to address this matter? -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=583449.msg11458701#msg11458701 (read the quotes as well)
  2. <moneromooo> Not a dev, but.. yes.
  3. <dEBRUYNE> Doesn´t matter moneromooo, you´re a significant contributor as well! Anyway, thanks for clarifying
  4. <moneromooo> Annoyingly, I cannot remember where I learned this from.
  5. <fluffypony> that's covered in MRL4, afaik
  6. <fluffypony> we're basically just going to have a decimal cut off below the dust limit
  7. <fluffypony> so mainchain won't really be well suited to micro-micro-payments :-P
  8. <fluffypony> (also the dust limit will be lowered so as to provide enough flexibility in this)
  9. <dEBRUYNE> with 2 decimals Monero has to be worth quite a lot :P
  10. <fluffypony> dEBRUYNE: dust limit will be disconnected from the fee
  11. <fluffypony> so essentially you'll be able to send 0.0001 XMR, if you're willing to pay the 0.01 XMR fee
  12. <dEBRUYNE> I see, thanks for clarifying! Can I post this on bitcointalk?
  13. <dEBRUYNE> I am sure some other people are curious as how this is going to be addressed
  14. <palexander> fluffypony, does that require hardfork?
  15. <fluffypony> well this is what has generally been discussed, but sure, you can also point to MRL4 as a reference point
  16. <fluffypony> palexander: yes
  17. <dEBRUYNE> fluffypony: So we first need a hardfork to address this and then one after to address the minimum mixin 3 right
  18. <dEBRUYNE> ?
  19. <fluffypony> why not do both in the same fork?
  20. <moneromooo> And switch to the sqrt mixin scheme along with it ^_^
  21. <palexander> Whats the cost for sqrt mixin vs. regular mixin?
  22. <palexander> By cost, I mean does it increase transaction size, etc.
  23. <moneromooo> From what I understand, it's a way to store ring signatures with space requirements in O(sqrt(N)), rather than O(N). I think it was sqrt. log would be too good to be true.
  24. <moneromooo> I don't know about the constants involved.
  25. <moneromooo> There was a post by... hmm... Adam Back ? About it.
  26. <palexander> ahh, yes. I read that post.
  27. <moneromooo> Oh, wait, no, this one was about a linear reduction.
  28. <palexander> In fact, I was going to ask about that here in a few minutes.
  29. <moneromooo> A paper by a Japanese cryptographer. Can't recall the name.
  30. <palexander> Yeah, adam back's post was about reducing the transaction size
  31. <dEBRUYNE> fluffypony: Articmine said the matter I stated should be addressed first in order to implement mixin 3 properly, hence my statement :p
  32. <dEBRUYNE> I am not technically capable to verify it myself
  33. <palexander> Funny how this whole cryptocurrency think has really brought mathematicians out of the woodwork. :-)
  34. <palexander> think=thing
  35. <dEBRUYNE> moneromooo: I think this is what you were referring to -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=972541.msg10842017#msg10842017
  36. <moneromooo> trim_white_peerlist trims the grey peerlist; trim_grey_peerlist trims the white. I wonder if t's just some WTF or if I'm missing something subtle...
  37. <palexander> dEBRUYNE, thanks for posting that. I was looking for that post the other day.
  38. <fluffypony> dEBRUYNE: he's misunderstanding the MRL4 changes
  39. <fluffypony> after we implement MRL4 *there will be no more unmixable outputs*
  40. <dEBRUYNE> I see, will make a small summary for bitcointalk of this conversation
  41. <moneromooo> No more unmixable outputs created ? IIRC previous can still be spent at mixin 0 ?
  42. <moneromooo> previous dust
  43. <fluffypony> moneromooo: that's inputs
  44. <moneromooo> Oh OK.
  45. <fluffypony> the outputs of a dust clearance transaction *must still be mixable*
