Monero Talk
Monero Talk broadcasts weekly conversations on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/c/monerotalk) with topical guests to understand what the Monero cryptocurrency is today and what it hopes to become.
We strive to give birth to new Monero users by simply reporting on the facts in our search to answer the question--Is Monero the truest cryptocurrency of them all? In staying true to the Monero ethos, we aim to always be skeptical. While we are Monero Talk by name, and Monero devotees at heart, the intention of the show is to ultimately discover and support the one blockchain that is most aligned with the original cypherpunk and crypto-anarchist ideals that cryptocurrency was born from. And the one that is most likely to succeed at becoming true digital cash. So far, we believe Monero is the one.
Guests include:
The developers and researchers working on the open source core protocol and the cryptography behind it;
The people building the projects and infrastructure supporting the protocol;
Privacy advocates and people building privacy enhancing technologies;
Analysts and investors speculating on Monero's growth;
Journalists and pundits weighing in on Monero's place in the crypto-sphere; and
Respected (sometimes controversial) contributors and community members.
If you enjoyed the show & would like to support us, a donation of any size would be greatly appreciated and would mean so much!

Jtgrassie on "Perfectly hiding and computationally binding" NOT being a Monero weakness
TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: Jethro Grassie, a Monero developer and respected community member, explains his recent posts dispelling the FUD (often spread by well known Bitcoin Core developers) regarding Monero's "perfectly hiding and computationally binding" nature. What has been described as a flaw, is actual a sound architecture choice that comes with more Pros than Cons. Bottom line: Monero is susceptible to undetected inflation just as much as Bitcoin is susceptible to private keys being decoded from public keys.

Breaking Monero Episode 13: Blockchain Explorer OpSec
This is a quick reminder to pay attention to the information you give block explorers. Connecting to them over Tor may not be enough for some threat models. They may not be malicious, but you are giving them the opportunity to collect information about you. Run your own full node instead, and consider running your own block explorer.
