+# Introduction
+
+Hi, everyone!
+
+[v1docq47](https://t.me/v1docq47) is here!
+
+This is our next CCS proposal for the new period for voiceover of [Monerotopia 2023](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcJiaPmldhQ&list=PLfJ_JjSwYaa810CWboNcPX7cY-JYEWo-4) and [Konferenco 2023](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsSYUeVwrHBm1m7IaU3JiDVb5EC7cn0KG) videos into Russian, creating other content for [Monero Russian Community Youtube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@MoneroRussianCommunity) and supporting [Russian Monero website XMR.RU](https://xmr.ru/).
+
+# Who I Am?
+
+[Since 2017](https://github.com/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%3Av1docq47+archived%3Afalse+is%3Aclosed+sort%3Acreated-asc) we've been working on translations, transcriptions, voiceover videos and writing various articles and manuals about Monero in Russian.
+
+We also create news [weekly](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixUamqRd3nc&list=PLQyX7h187qnQWtCN6brBXsB9QLEuaJWQO) and [quarterly](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhWi3a3gZXw&list=PLQyX7h187qnTrEQo1n1_-lxR5tk0qlRKo) / [informational](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOsHxWG5jNs&list=PLQyX7h187qnTqq4_-EAnp4HZk9eJpMvZK) / [tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bug2_NvHeNs&list=PLQyX7h187qnTGFHdrdZL7VRxQINEQZ2xJ) videos.
+
+Besides we are publishing text translations of all the Monero speeches both in Russian and English in a separate repository (similar to previous events like [Monero Konferenco 2022](https://github.com/v1docq47/monerokon-2022-transcriptions), [Critical Decentralisation Cluster (36c3)](https://github.com/v1docq47/monero-cdc-36c3-transcriptions), [Monerotopia 2022](https://github.com/v1docq47/monerotopia-2022-transcriptions)) so that everyone could not only watch, but also read the text versions of the speeches.
+
+That is, we are doing localization of Monero project on Russian.

+# Offline Signing Library for XmrSigner Production
+
+## About
+
+This proposal aims to create a minimal library for offline signing on
+air-gapped devices, and make XmrSigner production ready to actual use secure, focusing on essential features:
+
+- Seed phrase generation (including polyseed)
+- Address and key generation
+- Account and sub-address management
+- Address verification
+- Output importing and Key Image exporting (raw and encrypted)*
+- Unsigned transaction handling (description, sanity checks, signing)
+- Block height and date estimation
+
+The library will be implemented in C++ with a C ABI, allowing use in
+multiple languages. It will be based on the current Monero source but
+without relying on wallet2, aiming for minimal external dependencies,
+not inventing the wheel again, nor rolling own crypto.
+
+Key objectives:
+- Comprehensive documentation (OTS library, OTS Python library, buildroot packages desired integrated into monero docs for a easy and quick start to build something)
+- Quick start guide for offline and hardware wallet developers
+- Documentation of challenges in stripping down and cross-compiling
+- Buildroot package for easy target system integration
+- Python module for library usage
+- Test code
+- Modification of XmrSigner to use this new library
+
+## Who
+
+Thor (vThor/DiosDelRayo), completed the [XmrSigner (MoneroSigner Resurrection) proposal](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/%20MoneroSignerResurrection.html).
+
+## Why
+
+[XmrSigner](https://github.com/XmrSigner/xmrsigner), while functional, is currently more of a proof of concept than a
+production-ready tool. This library addresses several key issues:
+
+1. Performance: The current implementation using wallet RPC is slow,
+especially on resource-constrained devices.
+2. Security: Minimizing dependencies and code base improves auditability
+and reduces attack surface.
+3. Flexibility: A dedicated library allows for easier integration into
+various offline signing solutions.
+4. Resource efficiency: Stripping down to essential features enables use on
+lower-power devices.
+
+By creating this library, we will:
+- Bring XmrSigner to production readiness
+- Provide a foundation for future hardware wallet development
+- Explore the viability of using even more resource-constrained devices (e.g., MCUs) for offline signing
+- Build the basis for a lib which could also serve for quick payment way (seems there exists something like it called pocket change, was not aware of before) even if the customer is offline. Talked about that in [#monero-community](https://libera.monerologs.net/monero-community/20241018#c446995)
+
+A proof of concept has been developed to validate this approach:
+[c_abi_for_cpp_code_PoC](https://github.com/DiosDelRayo/c_abi_for_cpp_code_PoC)
+
+This library will significantly improve XmrSigner's performance, security,
+and usability while opening doors for more diverse Monero hardware wallet
+solutions in the future.
+
+## Milestones and Timeline
+# Offline Signing Library for XmrSigner Production
+
+## Milestones and Timeline
+
+### 1. Setting up documentation site (4 hours)
+
+All OTS library related will go into a fork of docs.get-monero.org and should take me no more than a blink of an eye to get going.
+For the XmrSigner related part I will setup the same mkdocs via github pages.
+This is apart from the Doxygen and Sphinx documentation, which I need to see how to make it best available on the way.

+packages which get cross compiled for the target platform. Here the dependencies
+to build the OTS library from the monero sources need to be fulfilled.
+
+<details>
+<summery>Show more...</summary>
+A very critical part to use the library on the pi zero (or other target device - maybe modifications will be needed here fore).
+I build for XmrSigner before buildroot packages, but struggled to get monero-wallet-rpc as binary running on
+the pi via Buildroot (how I was building on the Pi itself and there are so many dependencies that finally I pulled
+the plug on that version, becauseit was clear that monero-wallet-rpc was only a temporary solution to finish the CCS

+How I did that already outside of the last CSS, I need only to make some modifications,

+time for Milestone 9 because I really like to improve there. But 30 hours can vanish quick debugging
+issues there because it took like 30min to build on a 4c ore i7 with 16GB (lack at the moment something more powerful)
+and then flashing to microSD and test. But how from the buildroot image was forked from SeedSignerOS which stripped handy
+everything unnecessary away - good for security and speed - but terrible to debug.

+Getting all the XmrSigner stuff on one place together and the OTS library stuff on docs.get-monero.org, or
+at least in close reach.
+<details>
+<summery>Show more...</summary>
+Through the excessive amount of time the last CCS took the rebranding to XmrSigner and
+putting documentation and linking nice together suffered a bit. So here everything will
+get separated what is actual XmrSigner and what is needed to build a different Offline Signer
+from the OTS library and BCUR. So that XmrSigner is XmrSigner, and the building blocks a close to get-monrero.org
+as possible. All development resources should be on monero docs after the PR got merged, so there is a quickstart
+and all documents to create an offline signer pretty quick.

+### 9. (Optional/Stretch) Clean-up and Optimization (82 hours)
+
+Here is where my heart is, but after carefully calculating through the time, and catching myself,
+arguing on almost each point it could be done faster, and almost halving most points... I still with 138h more
+then the original 240 hours estimated. And instead of doubling or triple the time to have more air for unforeseen
+challenges I'm now even tighter, so that I probably will end up again working a lot of hours for free to get all done.
+But I still hope to safe enough time to get this milestone done, too.

+
+### 10. (Stretch) Xmr Signer Pure (Rewrite in C++) (98 hours)
+
+If I have the mega flow, I will continue here to move substitute the Python code
+to C++. Why C++ and not Go or not Rust? First I'm still learning daily in C++, but
+the more important reason, I think there is a benefit in thinking on a bare metal
+XmrSigner NG in future. [circle](https://github.com/rsta2/circle) and [libcamera](https://github.com/rsta2/libcamera)
+would make it possible to run XmrSigner on bare metal what is a C++ environment...
+So done this here well, most of the work would be already done for the next step.

+- I would kindly request a 20 xmr upfront on start from the first month.
+- Total compensation: 196 XMR
+
+Hours worked beyond in the running month shall roll over to the next month. If I can work some time out I will work
+on the optional/strech goals. If time is missing to get milestone 1-8 done in the calculated hours, I will work hours for free to get it done - I always do.
+
+I will commit every day my work, on starting each repository I will advertise them here in a comment an push my commits every day.
+And I will create a repository/blog or something as a daily logbook to document the work done and the daily progress.

+<details><summary>I set up a [website](https://diosdelrayo.github.io) which syncronizes my actual pomodoro sessions, and the last 48 hours the work done</summary> on which tasks and how many sessions, even each unit time, so it is more transparent. On the way I plan to render also all tasks with the total time and a calendar. But the raw data is available in the issues of the [github repository](https://github.com/DiosDelRayo/DiosDelRayo.github.io) of the site. The time worked on each task can be calculated by the label and unlabeling of `WIP` label is start to work and unlabel end of work on it.

+### Summary
+
+We propose supporting the development of the new Monero SDK for Android that the [Molly.im](https://molly.im) team is actively working on.
+
+The goal of this SDK is to provide a solution for developers to integrate Monero into their apps by offering an Android wallet library and a sample app. The library will include advanced features such as support for multiple wallets, sandboxed C++ code, client-side load balancing and asynchronous API. It will be compatible with Android Studio and fully optimized for size and performance. The demo app will feature the capabilities of the library, using the best practices and tools.
+
+The development of this SDK aims to resolve issues found in existing libraries during the integration of Monero into Molly. If you would like to know the rationale behind this SDK, and learn about the Molly project and background, we recommend checking out our CCS titled "Decentralizing Molly.im to support Monero payments" and the latest follow-up at the following links: [CCS proposal](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/vd-molly-payments-stage1.html) and [update post](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/252#note_20900).
+
+### SDK Overview
+
+The Monero SDK consists of two components:
+
+1. **Android Library**: A specialized library that allows developers to interact with the Monero network and perform wallet operations. This library is written in Kotlin and offers a reliable asynchronous API.
+
+2. **Sample Wallet App**: An example app written in Kotlin that showcases the usage of the library for wallet app development. It serves as an integration guide for developers and facilitates the testing of new functionalities.
+
+### Android Library
+
+The Android library is the core component of the SDK. Internally it wraps and extends the wallet2 low-level API.
+
+Key features and design decisions of the Android library include:
+
+- **Kotlin Language**: The library is implemented in Kotlin, which is the preferred language for Android development. Kotlin's interoperability with Java ensures compatibility with existing apps.
+
+- **Asynchronous API**: It leverages Kotlin's Coroutines support for asynchronous programming, providing a reliable and non-blocking API that seamlessly integrates with Android's event-driven development model.
+
+- **Sandboxed Execution**: All non-memory-safe code (C++) runs within an isolated process with zero privileges and restricted access to the host app or system resources. Even if a remote execution exploit affects Monero, it becomes extremely difficult for an attacker to elevate privileges to the system or host app.
+
+- **Modular Architecture**: The library is built as an Android service, using Android's AIDL interprocess communication (IPC) to connect the Kotlin layer with the sandboxed native code. This client-server architecture decouples the internal wallet2 implementation from the public API of the SDK, facilitating future swapping of the wallet2 module without major changes to the API. This enables smoother migration to Seraphis for developers using our SDK.
+
+- **Storage Abstraction**: The library provides a storage abstraction layer, simplifying wallet persistence for developers. It allows the SDK to be agnostic about the underlying storage mechanism (files, database, cloud, etc.). This flexibility enables developers to improve data-at-rest encryption without modifying the SDK code.
+
+- **Network Client Injection**: Instead of relying on the networking code of wallet2, the SDK allows the app to provide its own HTTP client. This gives the app the freedom to support any transport protocol, such as Tor, transparently to the SDK.
+
+- **Custom Logging**: The library includes a logging adapter that developers can customize. It enables the host app to determine log storage and location, providing a way to encrypt or remove sensitive information from the logs if needed.
+
+- **Client-side Load Balancing**: The library enables the host app to dynamically select the optimal remote node for RPC calls, ensuring efficient synchronization with the Monero blockchain. This can significantly reduce synchronization time by choosing the fastest node.
+
+- **Android Studio Compatibility**: The SDK is fully compatible with Android Studio, supporting native debugging, code navigation, and linter capabilities, for both the SDK library and the Monero codebase.
+
+- **Optimized Build System**: The  library has optimized CMake files that vendor all dependencies of wallet2, and applies Link-time optimizations (LTO) to remove all C++ code that is never called by the SDK. The result is a reproducible and lightweight library size of only 6 MB per arch, that can be built directly from Gradle.
+
+### Sample Wallet App
+
+The sample app is a fully functional multi-wallet app that serves as a reference for developers on integrating Monero into their apps. It is also a way to test if the library works well in a real-world application. Key features of the sample wallet app include:
+
+- **Clean Architecture**: The sample app uses the latest Android libraries and follows the [official architecture guidance](https://developer.android.com/topic/architecture#recommended-app-arch).
+
+- **Kotlin and Jetpack Compose**: The sample app is entirely written in Kotlin and uses Jetpack Compose for the UI, as well as many architecture components like Room, Lifecycle, and Navigation.
+
+### Use Cases
+
+The SDK is primarily designed to support two use cases: (i) local synchronized mobile wallets and (ii) Monero payments, with a focus on security, simplicity and performance. Although we are centered on these specific use cases, it would be beneficial to consider other potential applications where the SDK could be used in the future.
+
+In the first stable release, it is planned to provide the following functionality:
+
+1. Wallet Management
+   1. Create and restore wallet from mnemonic seed (25-words standard) or secret key
+   2. Export wallet seed and secret key
+   3. Save and load wallet from the storage defined by the app
+2. Account Generation and Subaddresses
+   1. Derive account subaddresses and track their usage
+   2. Parse base58 public addresses
+3. Balance Inquiry
+   1. Query locked/unlocked balance at a specific time
+   2. Retrieve transaction history
+   3. Listen to balance and transaction (ledger) updates
+4. Transaction Handling
+   1. Construct, sign, and broadcast single and multi-recipient TXs 
+   2. Handle network fee automatically
+   3. Create and verify payment proofs
+5. Blockchain Synchronization
+   1. Resume scanning or restart it from a specific height
+   2. Load balance RPC calls and failover to multiple remote nodes
+   3. Monitor remote node status and response time
+
+The following features would be left out of the first release: fine-grained coin control, hardware wallets, manual transaction input, message signing, and multisig. There is no roadmap or timeline yet for when these additional features will be included in future releases.
+
+### Code Example
+
+This snippet of code is a basic example to show how to use the API: [wallet-sdk-android-example.kt](https://gist.github.com/valldrac/54ff6842e4cc6d624ab893f4e839b2ae)
+
+### Limitations and Known Issues
+
+The biggest issue we have come across is how wallet2 trusts the remote nodes for blockchain synchronization. While it is widely known that malicious nodes can manipulate the returned blocks to deceive clients, the current lack of validation in wallet2 makes it too easy to exploit. Unfortunately, wallet2 fails to verify if the returned blocks line up with the previous blocks in the chain. This vulnerability has already been described in a security advisory ([link](https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/134jbdt/security_advisory_new_attack_from_malicious/)).
+
+To mitigate this problem, we suggest adding basic integrity checks into wallet2, but without validating PoW. These checks will help wallet2 to early detect the attack when connecting to an honest node.
+
+Our plan is to address this issue for the initial release of the SDK, as well as upstream the fixes to wallet2.
+
+### Comparative Analysis
+
+The main difference, in addition to the aspects mentioned in the design section, is that the existing libraries are essentially "library wrappers". They consist of a thin layer of code that translates the wallet2 API into a compatible interface for Java while maintaining the same (and intricate) semantics. However, in our SDK we have tried to develop a simplified yet flexible API explicitly designed for Android that prevents common pitfalls associated with wallet2.
+
+It is important to note that we have not conducted a comprehensive comparative analysis yet between our SDK and existing Java libraries like Monerujo's [xmrwallet](https://github.com/m2049r/xmrwallet) or woodser's [monero-java](https://github.com/monero-ecosystem/monero-java).
+
+### Progress Report
+
+The development progress of the library API at a high-level is as follows:
+
+- Wallet Management: 90% complete.
+- Account Generation and Subaddresses: 20% complete.
+- Balance Inquiry: 70% complete.
+- Transaction Handling: 0% complete.
+- Blockchain Synchronization: 80% complete.
+
+We have made significant progress in the demo wallet app as well, implementing key features such as multiple wallet creation, customizable settings, balance checking, and individual remote node configuration for each wallet. The demo includes a basic syncing service that automatically refreshes and saves the wallets. It also supports syncing over SOCKS proxies.
+
+Based on the progress made so far, we have spent a total of 625 hours on development. Out of these, 550 hours until the end of April, and 75 hours from May until now.
+
+The SDK, that includes the library and the demo, is available on GitHub: https://github.com/mollyim/monero-wallet-sdk
+
+### Proposal & Milestones
+
+By funding this project we aim to accelerate the adoption of Monero in the Android ecosystem, providing a reliable and flexible solution for developers to integrate Monero into their apps. This funding will also drive the integration of Monero into Molly.im.
+
+The proposed milestones for this project are as follows:
+
+1. Development
+
+   - Complete the development of the library for the planned use cases.
+   - Complete the implementation of the remaining features for the demo wallet app.
+
+2. Security Enhancements
+
+   - Implement and validate basic integrity checks in wallet2 to mitigate the risk of malicious nodes.
+   - Upstream the improvements to the core library.
+
+3. Continuous Integration & Testing:
+
+   - Set up CI pipeline to automate builds, testing, and release processes.
+   - Maintain a minimum unit test coverage of 70% for the library (excluding 3rd party and generated code).
+
+4. Release Management
+
+   - Iterate on the SDK based on community feedback, fixing issues, and reviewing pull-requests on GitHub.
+   - Coordinate new releases, including versioning and release notes.
+
+5. Documentation
+
+   - Create a clear README that provides an overview of the project and build instructions.
+   - Generate the API reference documentation.
+   - Include code snippets and recipes to demonstrate how to solve common problems with the SDK.
+   - Create a component diagram that illustrates the architecture and key components.
+   - Comment the code of the wallet app to serve as an integration guide, explaining the implementation details.
+   - Regularly update the documentation.
+
+6. Community Engagement
+
+   - Engage actively with the community on Matrix to understand their needs and include their suggestions into future updates.
+
+7. Seraphis Migration Planning
+
+   - Join the Seraphis Working Group to provide feedback, share design ideas, and review migrations plans for a smooth transition to Seraphis.
+
+### Funding
+
+We are requesting a total of $36,000 in funding to support this project, allocated in these milestones:
+
+1. Development: $22,000
+2. Security Enhancements: $3,000
+3. Continuous Integration & Testing: $6,200
+
+For the remaining milestones (4 to 7) we propose to allocate $4,800 for 6 months of maintenance, with payouts of $2,400 every 3 months.
+
+Based on current rate of 1 XMR = $140 (as of June 10th 2023) with a 15% volatility buffer, the equivalent amount of $36,000 would be approximately 295 XMR.
+
+### Expiration
+
+If no milestones have been claimed within 9 months from the start of the project (since moved to work-in-progress) or latest payout, the CCS for the project shall be considered expired. In case of expiration, the remaining unclaimed funds will be donated to other CCS proposals.

+
+## What
+Work primarily on the `monerod`, `wallet`, and `monero-lws`. Some of the work to be attempted or investigated:
+  - Complete p2p Noise encryption (already in-progress)
+  - Get new serialization routine merged (work on piecemeal PRs for reviewers sake)
+  - Complete work necessary to merge [DANE/TLSA in wallet2/epee](https://github.com/vtnerd/monero/tree/improve/dane_tlsa).
+  - Adding trust-on-first-use support to wallet2
+  - Add msgpack support to monerod-ZMQ (requires merging of new serialization system)
+  - `monero-lws` work:
+    - Optional full chain verification for malicious daemon attack
+    - Subaddresses
+    - A accept-all-new-accounts mode similar to MyMonero behavior (instead of manually callback)
+    - Webhook for new account creation (prevents polling for new accounts)
+    - ZMQ pub support for incoming transactions and blocks (notifies of _any_ new transaction or block)
+    - Create Github Actions that run unit-tests and provide binaries
+    - Provide official LWS docker-image
+    - Provide official snap/flatpak/appimge (tbd one or all of those)
+    - Provide pre-built binaries
+    - (Unlikely) - reproducible builds so community members can verify+sign the binary hashes

+More than 3 months listed there, priorities may change as community requests or issues arise.
+
+## Who
+
+Lee Clagett (vtnerd). I've had [three](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/vtnerd-tor-tx-broadcasting.html) [CCS](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/vtnerd-2020-q4.html) [proposals](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/vtnerd-2021-q1.html). The [full list of my monero PRs since last CCS](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%3Avtnerd+created%3A%3E2021-02-17). I've also written a [msgpack implementation](https://github.com/vtnerd/monero-lws/pull/63) for the new serialization system (in Monero-LWS), an [admin REST](https://github.com/vtnerd/monero-lws/pull/62) api to Monero-LWS, as well as [webhooks for incoming transactions](https://github.com/vtnerd/monero-lws/pull/66) (including a [zero-confirmation](https://github.com/vtnerd/monero-lws/pull/72) for webhooks) (instead of the previously proposed ZMQ-PUB). [Unit tests](https://github.com/vtnerd/monero-lws/pull/53) were also finally added to Monero-LWS.
+
+## Proposal
+
+Work on the various tasks outlined above for 40 hours/week over the next 3 months after potential funding. I already use time-tracking software for work; if the hours dip in a given month unexpectedly, the update/milestone will be at the completion of the hours listed above.
+
+The funds were calculated with 55 USD/hour with ~158.13 USD/XMR which is the 14-day exponential moving average on Kraken through 2023/07/02.

+
+## What
+Work primarily on the `monerod`, `wallet`, and `monero-lws`. Some of the work to be attempted or investigated:
+  - Code reviews of monero core PRs
+  - Optimization work in monero core (work with the new stressnet team)
+  - Add socks5 support to wallet and monerod (which adds IPv6 support to proxies)
+  - Add support for [torspec/control-spec](https://github.com/torproject/torspec/blob/main/control-spec.txt). This is similar to the SAM proposal for I2P
+  - Get new serialization routine merged (continue work on piecemeal PRs for reviewers sake)
+  - Complete work necessary to merge [DANE/TLSA in wallet2/epee](https://github.com/vtnerd/monero/tree/improve/dane_tlsa).
+  - Adding trust-on-first-use support to wallet2
+  - Add msgpack support to monerod-ZMQ (requires merging of new serialization system)
+  - `monero-lws` work:
+    - Complete LWS frontend (using `wallet_api.h` as interface) so that wallets can begin using LWS API easily. This is separate from woodser et al working on LWS API within `wallet2` which may be deprecated.
+    - Perform apache-benchmark test on REST api to determine effects of blocking ZMQ calls
+    - Cache some ZMQ calls performed during REST api responses to reduce burden on `monerod` and improve REST throughput
+    - Add concurrency to REST API responses - remove blocking ZMQ calls which starve valuable REST thread resources
+      - A switchover to boost asio/beast/azmq from epee/zmq to handle async http responses will be needed
+      - `get_random_outs` endpoint has blocking ZMQ calls that cannot be cached, thus the potential need for async-zmq
+    - Add a "scale" factor to remote scanning load balancing - send more accounts to systems with faster single thread performance 
+    - Add 64-bit ed25519 code for faster arm64 scanning
+    - Provide official LWS docker-image
+    - Provide pre-built binaries
+    - (Unlikely) - reproducible builds so community members can verify+sign the binary hashes
+
+There is intentionally more work than time allows - to ensure there is always something to work on in the proposal.
+
+## Who
+
+Lee Clagett (vtnerd). I've had [four](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/vtnerd-tor-tx-broadcasting.html) [CCS](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/vtnerd-2020-q4.html) [proposals](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/vtnerd-2021-q1.html) ([last one](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/vtnerd-2023-q3.html)), and [one Magic Grant](https://monerofund.org/projects/Q1Q2_2024_dev_vtnerd).
+
+Some of my biggest features in monero core repo are [Dandelion++](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/6314), [adding supercop ASM speedups to wallet code](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/6337), [ZeroMQ Pub Support for new blocks and transactions](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/6418), and [SSL support to p2p](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/8996).
+
+I've also made a functional LWS wallet scanner under CCS/Magic - which now has a MyMonero compatible REST API, admin REST API, LMDB storage, subaddress support, webhook/zmq/rmq publishing (new receives, spends, and accounts), multi-machine scanning with (primitive) load-balancing, and an untrusted daemon mode that verifies PoW is valid (whereas normal wallets trust `monerod` responses entirely).
+
+## Proposal
+
+Work on the various tasks outlined above for 40 hours/week over the next 3 months after potential funding. I already use time-tracking software for work; if the hours dip in a given month unexpectedly, the update/milestone will be at the completion of the hours listed above.
+
+The funds were calculated with 65 USD/hour with ~157.41 USD/XMR which is the 9-day exponential moving average on Kraken through 2024/07/11. The rate is up a bit: (1) inflation, (2) volatility protection, and (3) closer in hourly compensation to 2 other contributors.

+
+What?
+
+XMRChat is website that provides content creators with a service, allowing them a way to receive messages and tips in Monero. We launched https://xmrchat.com/ on 8/4/2024, using it for the first time in MoneroTopia episode 177, where Doug interviewed Saeed, going over the project and what the site is capable of. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1sy8ICsgBQ. We are looking to raise a total amount of 114 XMR at this time, split in 4 milestones as seen above.
+
+Website: https://xmrchat.com/
+X Account: https://x.com/xmr_chat
+Code: https://github.com/sa8ab/xmrchat
+
+How we got started?
+
+In early 2024, FiatDemise was watching a streamer, one that accepts tips from viewers and reads their messages as part of their show. They accept fiat using YouTube Superchats, Rumble Rants, and Streamlabs. They publicly stated they’d like to accept crypto too. FiatDemise started a conversation with their staff to try to get them to use Luke Smith’s Shadowchat. FiatDemise volunteered to pay for a company to install and configure it too. After some promising back and forth, FiatDemise got a response saying the team’s web dev / admin was too busy with current projects and they didn’t want to devote any time towards installing or managing Shadowchat. FiatDemise learned that the market wanted a very simple solution that doesn’t require any installation, hosting, or technical knowledge.
+
+At the time, FiatDemise was volunteering as a tester for xmrbazaar and raised the idea of a simple, hosted superchat solution in that Matrix group. Doug supported it right away, and we began working on requirements and giving shape to the vision with a Balsamiq wireframe. We worked with one developer to create a rough proof of concept. Then we found Saeed, a talented developer who could take the project to the next level. We saw the limitation of RPC, only being able to monitor incoming tips for one wallet, which wouldn’t work with the goal of hosting a solution for many content creators. After research, trial and error, and consultations with VTNerd and Radanne, we got LWS to work. After several more updates, the MVP was launched.

 # What
 [xmrSale](https://github.com/xmrsale/xmrSale) is a lightweight Monero payment processor that connects to your own Monero node, striving to be modular and lightweight. xmrSale has an accessible API written in python that talks to your own Monero node, uses RPC to generate new addresses, and monitors payment success with your own copy of the Monero blockchain.
