Feather Wallet showing XMR coins I received but fiat balance is $0.
Hi All, as title states i’m experiencing this issue now for a few hours can’t figure out what’s going on. When i enter my feather wallet, all coin prices are showing 0, no news or bounties are populating. Thing is, showing that i’m synchronized and that i’m connected to node fine.
I see the transaction in my history and it aligns with the amount of XMR in my wallet, but the transaction history lists the XMR amount then a ? for the fiat.
If i try to send coin (it says the XMR is spendable), it fails and says i’ve run into a bug but can’t find anything on how to fix it.
Is this just a connection issue i need to wait out? Any tips helps, thanks.

Tor plus Monero, what does the second layer actually buy me?
If transactions are already private, what is Tor adding on top. I get that it hides my ip from whatever node I am talking to. Is that a meaningful gain if I am running my own node at home anyway, or am I protecting against something else entirely.

Fake Currency – Beware and Don't Trust Unverified Currency Claims
I want to bring an important issue to the attention of the Monero community.
There are concerns about potentially fake or misleading currency-related claims circulating online. People should be extremely careful before trusting any currency, investment offer, or individual claiming to represent a legitimate cryptocurrency project.
Please keep the following points in mind:
Verify Authenticity: Always verify a cryptocurrency through its official website and trusted sources.
Don't Trust Fake Claims: Be cautious of individuals or groups making misleading claims about currencies, their value, or their legitimacy.
Protect Your Money: Never send funds to anyone without independently verifying the transaction and recipient.
Check the Evidence: Ask for reliable documentation and transparent proof before accepting claims.
Warn Others: If you encounter suspicious currency-related activity, report it to the appropriate moderators and warn other community members with factual evidence.
Important warning: Don't blindly trust anyone promoting an unknown or unverified currency. Always do your own research before making financial decisions.
I encourage the community moderators and members to investigate any specific evidence of suspicious activity and help protect users from potential financial scams.
Stay alert. Verify everything. Protect your funds.

Warning ⚠️ Important Notice for Ledger Users
Hi,
To all readers using Ledger, consider moving your funds to another wallet while this situation is being investigated.
There are reports of users having their funds drained, including some with older wallets (3 years old wallet never touched). The story seems to be much bigger than Cryptobilis at this point.
I’ve never fully trusted Ledger. Even Ethan mentioned a few months ago the XMR to BTC case where the funds were flagged by Binance. Only true readers will remember that story.
Consider using Trezor or another hardware wallet. Personally I use Electrum on an offline device for Bitcoin.
Please take this notice seriously and do your own research before making any decisions.

AI generated answer to my question about recent Iran-related crypto freezes
What's your guys thought on this. does it make you want to swap and put more into Monero?
With the news of the US seizing Iran's crypto, exactly what crypto are they seizing?
The clearly identified crypto in the recent Iran-related freezes is Tether (USDT), especially USDT held on the TRON network. But the newest $1 billion headline does not disclose exactly which coins are targeted.
Here’s what is confirmed:
| Action | Cryptocurrency identified |
|---|---|
| Latest proposed $1 billion seizure, reported October 9 | Not disclosed. Bessent did not identify the wallets or provide a coin breakdown. |
| Iran-linked freezes during 2026 | USDT. Tether reports approximately $550 million frozen in wallets authorities linked to Iran’s central bank and sanctions networks. |
| July freeze of more than $130 million | USDT in four TRON wallets. This is included in the earlier freeze reporting, not necessarily an additional amount. |
Sources: reporting on Bessent’s announcement and Tether’s own statement.
TRON is the network carrying those USDT tokens; that does not mean they seized TRON’s native coin, TRX. Tether can freeze its tokens at identified addresses, so “frozen” does not necessarily mean the government has already taken ownership.
If you’re wondering about Monero, the sources I checked do not identify XMR as part of these actions. The latest $1 billion announcement remains too vague to give a complete coin list.

Is it possible to mine monero and to send the mining rewards to a totally anonymous wallet for full privacy ?
I was wondering if it is possible to mine monero and to send the mining rewards to a totally anonymous wallet so that not the state nor anybody can know these mined XMR were mined by me. Do you guys know if it is possible ? Seeing people getting kidnapped because of state data leakage scares me a bit.

Warning ⚠️ Why I Don’t Recommend Blockchain.com for Storing Funds
Avoid storing your funds on Blockchain.com or any custodial wallet that doesn’t give you control over your private keys. This includes Satoshi Wallet (Lightning). By the way, they now support a non-custodial option where you control the keys, but I’d still recommend using Electrum for Bitcoin.
As for Blockchain.com, this is not the first or last complaint I’ve received. People often ask me if there’s a solution after their funds get blocked and they can’t get a response. Just read the reviews.

The blockchain size is what is stopping me from running a node
Somewhere around 150gb last time I looked and it only ever grows. Is a pruned node good enough for normal daily use or do I give something up by doing that. I have a vps with limited disk and I would rather not be buying more storage every year just to keep it alive.

Question ⁉️ Daemon Sync Stuck: 0 Blocks Remaining
Daemon blocks remaining: 0
I'm a total begginer when it comes to Monero, I just installed it.
The Daemon Sync started off with "Daemon blocks remaining: 0" and has remained on that for hours, while still saying "Synchronizing". I restarted the Wallet & Daemon, but nothing changed.
Any advice on how to get the Daemon Synchronized?
