I agree and have posted about this for a long time. If it’s not overzealous mods, it’s all of the censoring by the bots created by either the mods or Reddit itself. I cannot understand why the entire r/monero community doesn’t migrate over here and dispense with Reddit, a company that is paid by Google for all of the great posts we make over there for free, and then Google uses all of our answers to train Gemini.
If anyone having this same problem finds their way here, this is the script to upgrade to Haveno Retoswap v. 1.1.0. Run it in regular Terminal, not Root Terminal right next to amnesia@amnesia:~$
It takes about 10 min to install and the Terminal looks like it’s frozen during the install but it’s not. Here’s the script:
curl -fsSLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/XMRZombie/haveno/refs/heads/tails/scripts/install_tails/haveno-install.sh && bash haveno-install.sh https://github.com/retoaccess1/haveno-reto/releases/download/1.1.0/haveno-v1.1.0-linux-x86_64-installer.deb DAA24D878B8D36C90120A897CA02DAC12DAE2D0F
OK, accepted.
An attempt at solving the problem on one’s own is often of great value, a great way to learn, even if it’s unsuccessful
I agree, and perhaps I didn’t emphasize it enough, but I tried every script I could think of before coming here.
Imho (quite) a few users ditched monero.town when they had started blocking Tor.
Yeah, and the blocks of Tor and VPN by Reddit are even worse. I HATE Reddit with a passion (censorship, bots, using our posts to train their AI and sell it to Google and now CQS which punishes you even for connecting in a non-AML/KYC way ) and wish the entire community would just migrate here or somewhere else. Too bad the Tor DDOS issue here can’t be solved.
I didn’t know there was a v1.1.0 released. Thanks, I’ll check it out. At least someone around here is helpful.
I don’t believe I’m one of them, but if you comment was referring to me, I don’t appreciate it any more than monerobull’s comment telling Tails users to fuck off.
I come here looking for help with the script and this is your response? Maybe this is why no one ever posts here. Newsflash you arrogant ass: there are lots of Tails users having trouble with v.1.0.19 right now because the github file has changed from deb.zip to an installer file. Changing out the version number in the sudo command has worked for me up until now but no longer. I’ve I’ve been using Tails for 8 years, do not like Qubes, and your disrespectful assumptions about me being some kind of schizo moron who needs to be spoonfed aren’t appreciated. If you think it’s strange to want to use Retoswap on Tails, you obviously know nothing about true Opsec. Nevermind, sorry I asked for help. Until now I thought you were a helpful and useful member of the Monero community. I’ll just switch to openmonero.co and XMRglobal. And I’ll say it again. If you want adoption of Retoswap by more than just a few, Retoswap shouldn’t make it mandatory to upgrade in order to trade until all of us in the privacy community are covered.
Yeah, I’m surprised that monerobull hasn’t chimed in on this yet with the way he supports it so much. Retoswap shouldn’t make it mandatory to upgrade in order to trade until all bases are covered, i.e. Tails users.
monerobull, can you help me with figuring out what’s wrong with the script I’ve posted above so that I can download v1.0.19 onto Tails?
I’m having trouble installing v1.0.19 on Tails. This is the command I’m using. Can anyone figure out what I’m doing wrong? It keeps saying “Failed to download Haveno binary”.
amnesia@amnesia:~$ curl -x socks5h://127.0.0.1:9050 -fsSLO https://github.com/haveno-dex/haveno/raw/master/scripts/install_tails/haveno-install.sh && bash haveno-install.sh https://github.com/retoaccess1/haveno-reto/releases/download/v1.0.19/haveno-v1.0.19-linux-x86_64-installer.deb DAA24D878B8D36C90120A897CA02DAC12DAE2D0F
Maybe I don’t understand fully, but if I sell a voucher for 1 XMR on Amazon, Amazon will know that I sold it with my real identity, right? Or are you saying to try to sell it with a fake Amazon account?
Because you can’t use those 3 sites to on-ramp, only to swap.
Ok, thanks for the info.

AVOID crypton.sh They scammed me.
Another alternative is to use XMR to rent a phone number for receipt of a one time SMS verification code at a cost of $3-5. In the past, Google would not ask for a SMS verification code again after the creation of an account, but if you are worried that they might, you can also rent a phone number long term.
How does this work? Does the Google account you purchase come preverified (so no SMS phone # verification is required) and with a predetermined username and password?
How about fluffypony 2.0?
The article seems to tout the greatness of BCH’s 32MB block size compared to BTC’s 1MB block size and implies that because of the 32MB block size, BCH is more agile and adaptable with respect to many crypto related issues, including quantum computing threats.
Fuck this thread.
If you don’t have anything useful to contribute here (which you never do), then get the fuck off my thread.
Any move from Reddit to ANYWHERE is a good move, be it here, nostr, monstr or whatever. I hate Reddit with a passion, and wish the whole r/monero sub would move to nostr if as you are saying, lemmy instances can just vanish. Would a nostr community be more accessible by Tor than monero.town is? Also, just to clarify and without trying to ruin anyone’s privacy, are admin and monerobull here one and the same?
