I'm not sure exactly what you're asking. AWS is a VPS service, so you don't need any physical resources in that sense, Amazon runs the computer for you. If you're running a micro instance, then decide you need more CPU or RAM or whatever, then you can make an image of that instance, then start a more powerful instance using that image. RAM or CPU cores are not dynamically scalable on a running instance tho, afaik.

Where would that cost $50/year?

It's pretty easy to be able to get AWS credits for about ten cents on the dollar in the digital goods section of this forum. I'm currently running the tipbot aeonbux on a micro instance, and I've just used a bunch of swap and commented out the auto saving in the daemon, been running fine for several months. I think that would suffice for a remote node, in which case i think the monthly cost is $10-15, but you only actually pay 10% of that.

Hi jwinterm,

If someone runs a t2 micro instance, do they need any physical resources (besides $) - or can all the RAM and CPU power be rented on demand as needed through AWS?

Thanks!

Can someone please launch a MyAeon webwallet so I don't have to download the whole friggin blockchain? Hint hint Smooth hint hint. I've given up on the multicurrency wallets ever adopting Aeon. Don't know why but none of them have integrated Aeon. I haven't found a pool that allows mining Aeon direct to an exchange. So where does that leave me? Sadly, mining Aeon on Minergate's pool with Linux is my best option at this time and that kind of sux because I don't really trust Minergate.  Angry

Coinomi has a pretty good basic Android wallet that works very fast. It takes 2 weeks to integrate, and costs ~2500 upfront for 2 yrs hosting/implement. AEON would be the 1st Cryptonote in the wallet.. so not sure if they can do in 2 weeks...

https://coinomi.com/#supported-coins

Maybe we should think about crowdfunding this? What do you folks think?

I think it would be better to just have someone run a public node that people could use to sync wallets without running the daemon. That would cost ~$50/year I think. Also, thanks jaystone777 Cheesy

Does anyone know how to recover the simplewallet from the mnemonic phrase? I've read a few vague explanations of how its done but none of them were specific enough. Someone said open simplewallet with --restore-deterministic-wallet. How? I've tried everything I can think of and none of it takes me to a screen that asks for the mnemonic phrase. I'm stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The system in question is running Ubuntu. Also, where is the blockchain.bin file stored on a Linux OS? I'd like to jump-start it with a bootstrap but I can't find where it stores the blockchain.bin file. Remember, this is Linux not Windows. Thanks in advance for any help.

Go to the folder where simplewallet is and type:
Code:
./simplewallet --restore-deterministic-wallet
Then follow the instructions.

Blockchain is stored in your home directory in .aeon folder by default (folders starting with . are hidden folders, in case you weren't aware).

Thank you so much. You just made this so much easier. You're a cryptogod among mere mortals.

Aeternity still plans to base itself around our AE concept, potentially also using AEON as the ticker.

http://www.banklesstimes.com/2017/01/09/malahovs-aeternity-blockchain-venture-puts-down-roots-in-liechtenstein/

How do we deal with this?

1. Ignore
2. Resist/Destroy
3. Other

their favored ticker is AET atm
https://twitter.com/aetrnty/status/817138358392651778

Correct. No need to worry. aeternity will NOT compete for 'AEON' as a ticker symbol.

i agree, some sort of myetherwallet analog would be fine, being less technical than simplewallet (and decentralized).

from this response I understand that AEON is not concerned by RingCT, said by certains to be a potential source of  problems for XMR..

We'll see how it works out. AEON's approach is somewhat different anyway.

Will the recent developments in XMR be transferred to aeon, like the GUI and RCT update? Is there a roadmap for 2017?

RCT is evil, we don't need it...

Why? Because transactions can be larger? I don't think this is a big issue for Monero, but less of an issue for Aeon where mixin 0 txs are still allowed, as it makes things pruneable, right?

Why not use transaction prefix only to calculate transaction ID hash like BBR, just do away with old ring signatures (when becomes a bloat problem)?

That can be done anyway for storage purposes, the same way Bitcoin does pruning, and is already implemented in AEON. The BBR approach has minimal benefit. You can sync faster but with a lower level of security (trusting other nodes instead of verifying everything yourself).

Right. Also, the AEON approach of allowing limited use of 0 mix and non-RingCT transactions would allow things like pool payouts where both tracing and hiding amounts is largely pointless (the blocks mined by the pool is generally public anyway, as are the payout transactions) to be done with lower cost. Or at least, they would bid for access to the quota of 0-mix transactions. My guess is that those slots would be most valuable to pools for cheap payouts, but I don't know. The market will sort it out.

I don't see RingCT or required mixing being a problem here at all. People who don't need it can opt out, as long as is kept under control and doesn't compromise the privacy of the chain as a whole. (I also agree it isn't likely to be a real problem for Monero either, but we will see. If usage explodes and blocks become too large that could be a concern, possibly.)

Monero RingCT transactions gave first results Smiley

DwarfPool.com stopped auto payouts - "Due to increased transaction fee after HF, payouts temporarily paused until we adapt the payout-system to the new monero-rules" Smiley

After missing the XMR but making good profit from BTC's recent pump I am going to make enetry in Aeon at level of price. I think XMR has done whatever it had to do now Aeon will be accumulated and pumped next. In spite of people claiming XMR will increase I do do agree anymore on that. Aeon is looking good at current price to me.
