Trying to sync the 0.9.6 aeond for the first time, the daemon keeps getting killed for some reason...any ideas?

Then I start it up again and I have to start syncing the blockchain from 0.

I'm also running bitmonerod on this machine, so maybe its too much for it to handle at the same time?

Code:
2015-Dec-03 23:40:32.289786 [P2P2]CHECKPOINT PASSED FOR HEIGHT 540000 <94e19cf9d5a16ae90f67c321f8376b87da21d6d6c2cb0957b9ab558dca66c1dc>
Killed

edit: After starting over, the daemon gets killed at the same point, just after the checkpoint for 540000.

All good Smooth. I had a lot of Aeon trapped on Poloniex and you were very helpful assisting me transfer them. And 100% trustworthy, so I donated a small amount. Keep up the good work

Although my interests are primarily in the area of blockchain technology and experimental improvements to the cryptonote protocol, I invite others to join the project and work on other items such as a GUI wallet (though we can likely adapt existing GUI wallets from other cyptonote coins), mobile wallets, marketing, etc.

I have created a new donation address for the project. The amount of donations received will have some influence on the pace of work, largely because it allows me to gauge the interest of the community in a credible way, and I'm less interested in working on something that no one cares about.

How is this all going? I did make a donation previously and am happy to donate more if appropriate. Where are we at?

Thanks Smiley

I've posted updates on the donation balance regularly, including noting specific donations when I noticed them. If I missed yours, I apologize for that. Of course, I can't tell where the donations are coming from, only the timing and amount. In addition we get periodic mined blocks both from the seed node servers which are solo mining and from people using the --donate option to solo mine for the project (which also helps decentralize the network -- which by the way is critically important at the moment).

Current donation balance:

balance: 458368.890250628707, unlocked balance: 458368.890250628707

Didn't the original Developer use AEON as an acronym ?
I think the "E" stood for "electronic"but I can't recall what the others stood for

The acronym always seemed a bit contrived to me, more likely a backronym, but I don't really know.

LOL just noticed it ;-)

Omni?

Omni is a Latin prefix meaning "all" or "every". Omni may also refer to:

Avatars are overrated.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eon

So an eon is a period of time. Does the "a or an" vowel rule apply to proper nouns?

Somehow I think that a-eon or a_eon could be a pretty cool crypto name and reference some neat science stuff with a minimal branding overhaul ...but all of this is irrelevant. Code is what matters.

In conclusion, banana and Volkswagens.

just my opinion, but I dont like "litenote". name it that and its just another coin trying to ride the coat tails of litecoin.
I got interested in AEON because i felt Smooth and AP want to take this coin down a new path and build something special.

Literally the future money of Elysium. Wink   
 
You don't think the 1% will use dirty 'ol Monero do you? 
 
Just kidding, but seriously - a me too Litecoin approach is no good.  A currency needs an independent technical and social reason to exist and "me too" is not a valid social reason. 
 
This is why I say Aeon is a crypto luxury object.  We aren't worried about scalping 20% or pumps or mass merchant adoption.  We are worried about owning something truly exclusive - a slice of future Cryptonote development and the honest-to-goodness most advanced money on the planet.

Your opinion is appreciated, and yes we are building something special.

Is it a given that the name will definitely be Aeon? Because, if memory does not fail, smooth said there *could* be a rename/rebrand later on.

Yes, someone suggested Litenote, as a homologue of Litecoin.

No it isn't necessarily "set in stone" but no rename is planned right now.

i think "eon" is a long period of time.

They are alternate spellings. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeon


my bad. shoulda done my research.

More research: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeon_(Gnosticism) and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aion_(deity)

Perhaps we should run with the Roman or Gnostic theme. Still a bit esoteric, but less geeky than units of time.

IMHO time and money goes well together. anyone remember "time is money"?
it may even fit better than "energy is money" because for people usually time is more important.

Gnosticism: i dislike the linkage to any kind of god or religion
deity: has some kind of time reference but still seems to be linked to religion (and the spelling is wrong)
