Add msgpack support to monerod-ZMQ (requires merging of new serialization system)
monero-lws work:
Determine a “push” interface for LWS clients (instead of existing poll interface)
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.
Add a new utility (to LWS-frontend) that accepts a spend key to report balance+spent transactions of wallet (requested via Github Issues). This will help verify accuracy of LWS endpoints
Update LWS spec and implementation to support new "carrot" features (view-balance key, etc)
Update LWS backend to work with fcmp++ experimental branch
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.
I've also made a functional LWS wallet scanner under CCS/Magic - which now has a MyMonero compatible REST API (now fully non-blocking to support more responses per thread), 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 ~232.20 USD/XMR which is the 14-day exponential moving average on Kraken through 2025/02/21.
