Monero has some of the least volatility of all the coins. I'm not really sure how that happens, maybe because it's not on major exchanges so not subject to speculation, aside from having an actual use case.

My blockchain is 5 years behind and my friend is bringing over an up to date chain. Can I just rsync lmdb and it adds the new blocks or is it better to just paste the new chain in place of the old one? I don't think the up to date one is pruned but if it is will that cause problems if I try to rsync it?

On Linux. Thanks.

Wow, good points, thank you. The connectivity checks look like a PIA but in this case (not being a person of interest) it seems reasonable to just keep the phone on LOS.

Hey thanks for the info. Are you saying that just standard LineageOS without gapps or MicroG will be unable to have a functioning OsmAnd (for example)? I remember a few years ago you had to install Mozilla location services seperately from F-Droid to get OsmAnd to work without Google stuff, but I've personally been out of the loop for a while.

 

I have to update a phone that currently has LOS, and degoogle it at the same time. If I just upgrade to the latest version (by flashing) and not install mind the gapps, is it basically a degoogled phone? It seems that installing /e/ over the current LOS would require me to flash stock rom first, which takes more time. The current LOS version on the phone was just 1 or 2 iterations below the latest version, 20 or 21 I don't remember.

TIA
