How are Bulletproofs similar / different from Bulletproofs++?
I hear references to Bulletproofs++ in Monero, however I have not seen any clear explanation of how they improve upon "standard" Bulletproofs. Can someone provide a simple explanation of the differences especially with regards to transaction size?

How long would it take to get the monero blockchain size to over 100 GB and 200 GB at today's usage rate?
Currently the monero blockchain is about 70 GB as of 2019 May 14. Assuming monero usage rates stay the same, how long would it take to hit 100 GB and 200 GB blockchain size?
Also I read that if monero usage increases the blocks are smaller? I'm just…

Monerod and wallet fully synced, not recognizing transactions made before the fork as valid
Both wallet and CLI are showing the incorrect balance after many full blockchain rescans, trying with the CLI, same result, rescan from genesis block and arbitrary block numbers, same result.
Full balance was there before the fork, and after the…

Use range proofs to make fees proportional to amounts in transactions
For what I could understand, reading a bit about the use of Bulletproof in Monero, it is used to prove that the amounts in the transaction are between 0 and 2^N-1, where N is the number of bits, currently 64, but could be any other number.
I was…

Why are there 4 types of range proofs in the Monero code base?
In the code, there is this:
enum RangeProofType { RangeProofBorromean, RangeProofBulletproof, RangeProofMultiOutputBulletproof, RangeProofPaddedBulletproof };
[source]
I believe:
RangeProofBorromean is to prove a value is within a range, using…

What is the difference between RCTTypeBulletproof and RCTTypeBulletProof2?
There seems to be two types of bulletproof transactions in monero, was there maybe a bug in the first one?

How do bulletproofs work?
There are lots of questions on this SE about how RingCT works, but not on Bulletproof. I would like to know the algorithm (Proof of correctness not necessary, since I can work that out), but the whitepaper uses notation that I fail to understand.…

Monero fees are .0000456 after bulletproofs. Will it get smaller as more transactions go into a block?
Previously before bulletproofs. Fees were .002 on the low setting. Now they are .0000456 xmr. Will fees be even lower as more transactions go into a block? And if there are less transactions, fees would actually go up?
