I've been building a Monero escrow service for the past month and it's ready for broader testing. Posting here for feedback and to let people know it exists. What it is XMREscrow is operator-mediated escrow using Monero subaddresses. You create an escrow, send XMR to a dedicated deposit address, the operator holds it until the buyer confirms delivery, then releases to the seller. The operator mediates disputes by force-releasing or refunding. This is not multisig. It is a trust-the-operator model. I'm being upfront about that because it matters for how you use it. For high-value deals, verify the operator identity via PGP before transacting. For lower-value deals the friction of multisig probably isn't worth it — that's the use case this is designed for." ### Post #8 by @WithTheCoke > **Author:** With The Coke ([@WithTheCoke](https://x.com/WithTheCoke)) > **Metrics:** 26 likes · 9 retweets · 2 comments · 949 views > **Posted:** 2026-07-05T17:07:10+00:00 > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/WithTheCoke/status/2073815967441035419](https://x.com/WithTheCoke/status/2073815967441035419) > > "Hey, @THORChain & @RujiraNetwork weekly recap is up!

Talk about community and price is not wanted, but some discussion about it maybe allowed if it relates well. Be as respectful and nice as possible. This discussion has potential to be more emotionally charged as it may bring up issues that are extremely upsetting: many people are not only financially but emotionally invested in the ideas and tools around Monero." ### Post #10 by @Danxia_Capital > **Author:** Danxia Capital ([@Danxia_Capital](https://x.com/Danxia_Capital)) > **Metrics:** 22 likes · 11 retweets · 3 comments · 641 views > **Posted:** 2026-07-05T16:53:10+00:00 > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/Danxia_Capital/status/2073812442174693652](https://x.com/Danxia_Capital/status/2073812442174693652) > **Visual Note:** A Thorchain Podcast promotional image featuring the Thorchain logo and text 'Chad Barraford Returns With a Packed Update', with a 'THORSday Podcast' label in the corner. > > "This week on the @THORChain Podcast, @patriotsounds was joined by @CBarraford and Randy for a packed technical and BD update.
