Okay let's consider this an official proposal then, open for comments:

Quote
Once the base reward declines below 0.3/minute, then reward will switch to inflationary at a target rate of 0.8888888....%/year (actual rate may deviate slightly in practice due to variations in block rate, block reward penalty, rounding, etc.)

I suppose this is a bit of a late vote, but still wanted to express an opinion on this one for the record.
Looks like Moo had a very special find there, I'm all-in for the 8/9 inflation rate!  Smiley

Has this concept been shelved for Aeon?

No

WTF is that link?  It has nothing to do with a coins proposal.  It be spam.

Edit:  seems the link was fixed.

Cross-posting from AEON Speculation

Lets all agree that this is a great logo and adopt it now.

Can we table the slogan debate until later (since that is the only thing that remains contentious)?

Good plan.

AEON BRANDING PACK Version 12.5

Hereby releasing into the public domain all source material that pertains to AEON 12.1 iterations with corresponding text components but absent taglines.

I've set up a Dropbox and uploaded everything there, including multiple PNG formats for the principle social media formats as well as the source vector SVG files:-

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/a4b8hxwgtn6dpfa/AAArW3dZODKyxdQ0SEn0sXYna?dl=0

You'll find everything you need there.

The color palette and typeset is as follows:-

COLOR 1: #5fbcd3ff
COLOR 2: #2c89a0ff
COLOR 3: #164450ff
COLOR 4: #333333ff
COLOR 5: #ffffffff

TYPESET: Ebrima (Bold)

aeoncurrency... I recommend using the 400x400 logo for Twitter:-



For everything else including websites, Reddit, splash screens etc.... you'll find it all in the DropBox.

Use it, spread it, do whatever you want with it.

Good luck! Kiss

bittrex has very low volume, aside from the recent ETH pump. I wonder if they are even profitable at this point? which is why we need to be trading on other exchanges as soon as possible. 
maybe we can try also https://hitbtc.com/ like another exchange

To be honest, all cryptonotes needs a free software like minergate's one.

I think you have a point. What is it specifically about the minergate software that you think is most valuable?


One thing that caught my attention regarding minergate is their Javascript miner that can be integrated in any website. It has the potential of helping with the decentralization of mining and help support the free services we use online (instead of the Ad'geddom we have now).

awaiting for wolf's binaries, i copied his recent work (from xmr miner) into my repo https://github.com/Arux-BTT/wolf-aeon-miner (branch: substantial_performance_increase)
Code:
git clone https://github.com/Arux-BTT/wolf-aeon-miner your_local_folder
cd your_local_folder
git branch substantial_performance_increase
make

hashing at ~1080h/s (vs ~800 before).  feel free to use it, windows64 build available at https://github.com/Arux-BTT/wolf-aeon-miner/releases

Thanks Arux. My little Pitcairn HD7850 went from 420 to 630h/s.
Unfortunately, it still cuts 100h/s out of 850h/s from my 8core FX processor because of high CPU usage.
Its a great improvement anyway.


Tell him to pull again, CPU usage issue should be fixed.
And of course, the first thanks goes to you, legendary Wolf0   Smiley

lol, thanks. I'll probably make a binary signed by me with the CPU usage issue fixed as well later.
Oh yes! That was a success.
It really has 0% CPU usage.
Now I have about 680h/s with my little Pitcairn HD7850 and 860h/s with my 8core FX processor @4GHz.

To disclose, I'm not using Minergate. I was briefly, but it doesn't support gpu mining for Aeon (only exception among all supported currencies), so I switch to good old ccminer and arux pool.

It does. Just tested it with a 750ti.


Thanks. I thought cryptonight-light algo is not supported at all. It seems like just some gpus (like mine GTX 970) is not supported. At least that's what I see in latest Minergate version (5.07).



The 970 works just fine also but like I said, I don't use that MinerGate software.

Straight miner with the command line.

To add: Minergate also don't ask user to create wallet.
You just register in usual way and wallets for every supported currency created and handled automatically.
I know there is downsides to online wallets, but the fact that you can use one username and password
for every wallet and miner is imo big plus for newbies.

As it was mentioned minergate is very easy, support gpu and cpu mining, slightly configurable (you can choose number of cpu cores), and I wish something like that to be built-in Monero/Aeon for smart mining.

I never knew about a button to push on the pool. Never used it.

I use a command line to mine Aeon, hence why I was looking for the stratum and port. I found it and did what I needed to do but back to what I was mining before. Maybe I'll jump back into this in about a week or so but for now have other things going.

Regarding the recent comments about an "easy to use" miner and/or wallet interface I have heard the same comments from others in my circles here at home.
Is it possible to set a bounty for this type of miner (an auto detect miner with GUI) especially since the AMD miner is working good as well??
Perhaps it could be then linked to a GUI wallet that is stored locally? Another option could be to sync local wallet to an off-site blockchain, so as to avoid the RAM implications for newer users? Or simply host an online wallet, seems as though the option does not bother many users.
I am not able to technically do these things, but I could host any needed server space to help. Smiley

Should one be worried about installing Minergate - and run the risk of some nefarious code being hidden in there that siphon private-keys etc.?

I'd be.
I have some peace in mind after stopping using wallets under windows.
There is clean separate Ubuntu for that (not VM).
So I'm not particularly worry of Minergate and other software.

It's been a while since I've looked at minergate, but from what I remember, it requires zero brain power. (1) Run the program, (2) click the big green button that says "Start Mining," (3) watch money accumulate. I have a couple crypto-newb friends who mine for fun, and they both use minergate for it's ease and simplicity.

EDIT: and as stated above, people often don't like the cmd line. Even if they're not afraid of it, copying commands from a readme is not as dead simple as clicking a button.

1. You decide when you paid off. Yours is the decision of what is dust and what it is not.
2. Payment ID. Some people mine straight into an exchange. I did it once, since I had no windows binaries.
3. No command line interface. Some (most) people afraid of it. I was afraid of it too 2 years before, when I first start to mine Monero, so I choose Minergate then. I'm just fine now, in fact I don't trust anything else than the command line interface, but... you know  Wink

Anyone mining at Miner Gate?

Can't find any connection info for pool now.

Certainly some people are using minergate but please use one of the pools in the OP if you can to spread out the hash rate.


Found what I was looking for. But I really have my reason for wanting it. Maybe like someone posted above since I am a noob and need that pool since it is easier for me.

@ Arux Thanks for your pool and info. Might try it out one day but I really needed MinerGate to test something out and did not want to try any pools straight to the wallet (for now).

I had my reason's for wanting it and found it and found out what I needed to find out.

Now I guess this noob will go back to what I was doing before my curiosity

and don't be afraid to mine on small pool (or solomine), on a long period, your reward will be the same. (Paid less often but bigger amount)

this is the stats of my pool:

at the end, the average luck is still going close to 100%
i don't know minergate stats but it sould be similar.

for now, http://98.238.231.31:9000/#pool_blocks seems unlucky but it won't last. i put 1kh/s on it because of several reasons: spread the hash (my pool can survive a drop of 1khs),  no loss of efficiency on long period (after a unlucky series, there is a lucky one) and help to maintain several pool active.
True that...
But for a newbie, minrgate is the logical choice.
You got your 0.1 AEONs regularly  Cheesy
I mine at your pool and I get the same, or more, but in much longer intervals.
Say... there was a day mining without a block, and then a day with 5 or 7 blocks.
I knew the ropes, but a newcomer will be disappointed.
To be honest, all cryptonotes needs a free software like minergate's one.
