Yea i remember the period when localmonero was shutting down and haveno was being touted as the alternative. Haveno reto became the only functioning instance, i tried 1 other but it was empty. Thus by network effect /early adoption reto got a monopoly. Even though the ideal case - many haveno networks competing - is not true i think that we arent in a great position.

All that said, coders dont work for free and a decentralised xmr fiat exch is a big ask to be funded by piecemeal donation or tiny fee acumulation. So retos what weve got for now but its rebrand is bad pr.

Ps. We use tradeogre without knowing the dox or codebase. . .

Heres the thesis

Our categorization is based on two key dimensions, resultingin a 2× 2 matrix that classifies stablecoins into four types. The first dimension pertains to thesourceof collateral,i.e., whether it comes from an exogenous source (such as fiat money and goldreserves) or an endogenous source (such as crypto assets like sUSD and TerraUSD). The second dimension pertains to the managementof collateral,i.e., whether a central entity or mechanism manages pooled collateral and decides when to expand or contract supply, or whether individualsmanage their collateral “decentrally” (i.e., in a decentralized way) and mint and burn stablecoins to adjust supply.

Interesting analysis. Conclusion. . . More regulation required!

Well my opinion is that stablecoins will be the form of money in the not too distant future. And are the eponymous cbdc. See my article: https://blakelovewell.com/stablecoins-the-future-of-money/

Also witness the attempted rehabilitation of tether under trump 2.0: https://www.calcalistech.com/ctechnews/article/uqakmywx7

check out my latest article on BRICS Pay and their proposed crytpocurrency: 'the unit'

russia is full tilt heading towards a cbdc system,

but building a parallel financial infrastructure, along with the rest of BRICS, outside of USA/Western control


regarding Haveno - it's early days. localmonero was big here in the UK but got scared off with the latest tranche of anti-crypto legislation

haveno isn't big at all, usually I see <10 nodes running at any one time. But if it's the only option then it will catch on. necessity is the mother of invention!

Just to keep the system battle hardened I am considering creating a whole mess of long-duration unlock-time transactions

Then opening an XMR faucet to distribute those limited edition tx to worthy hodlers before FCMP++

+_+

link is dead : "No longer available"

found more info on the git : https://github.com/KewbitXMR/haveno-app

looks promising but very beta - haveno app is on testnet

for the up to date haveno program visit : https://haveno-reto.com/#downloads

just downloaded v1.0.11

wallet sync takes about 15min on regular pc. still fewer than 10 peers live, but many more trades than a couple of months ago.
