smooth has deep knowledge of the cryptonote protocol better than the current bytecoin devs as far as I can see, he always answer technical question and his work on AEON so far is very good, everyone can see that, Monero has many contributors, I don't give 2 piconero what insults trolls come up with and its not working, just read the ammount of new people posting here, but fighting trolls is useless so please ignore them as they have an agenda.

It almost died but for whatever reason this little coin had and has a really strong community behind it. They kept it going, reached out to ask me for help when the seed nodes stopped working, kept after me to take it over, and have been donating generously to support future development. This likely honey badger of a cryptonote clone fought hard and has now earned a life of its own. It's no longer just a clone with several unique features and more to come.

See OP. It is traded on Bittrex and there is an organized OTC thread (though the later doesn't get much activity any more).

Is this a fork of bytecoin? What exchanges trust this?

This coin still alive after more then a year must be legit...

Looks like very promising coin. I am now trying to download blockchain on my notebook (Win 7 64) and preparing to start it on my VPS with Ubuntu 14.04.

Yes I agree. Leave MonerMooo with a nice chunk, he's a good supporter of the project, but not such a nice chunk!

Good reminder to try out the new --donate feature from the github master. Has anyone tried it? Any reports.

And it is now rising again, and close to 50%.
Some may want to consider solo mining, or pool mining on http://52.8.47.33:8080/  - not all of you though .

Great coin great dev great plans the rise will be great too

When you mean soon how soon for gui

I second that. Bought an nice amount of coin because everything is going for it. I'll be glad to mine once this function is on the GUI.

Thank you!

Looks good going here, keeping my eye on here on future developments. Keep up the good work Aeon Team 

New feature -- donation mining

Introduction

I've commited a new feature to github master: easy donation mining.

By adding the flag --donate to your daemon, you can automatically solo mine on behalf of the donation address. If you are using scripts to start your daemon, please add this flag.

This helps support the project directly with the mined coins going to the donation fund (and helps support the coin value by reducing the number of coins being mined and dumped) but more importantly helps support and decentralize the mining network for the coin. A huge problem with most small coin projects is that their mining networks are not only weak but also very concentrated. In our case, roughly 1/3 of the hash power is on MoneroMooo's pool, and at times that has been >50%.

In my opinion, a stronger and more robust coin network supported by software features and active support for the mining network by the user base will contribute directly to increased coin value, which in turn will encourage more mining, and attract more users. The result can be a virtuous circle where the coin becomes both more valuable and more secure!

tldr: add --donate when starting your daemon to support the project and the network

Additional details

By default, the --donate option uses only a single thread, which given our lightweight hashing algorithm, should have minimal impact on performance, heat, or power use on most current computers, since it will use only one core (or even just part of a core) and in most cases only a small portion of your cache. I'm interested in reports about how this works out on your hardware. When reporting your observations, be sure to specify the exact CPU model, amount of RAM, etc.

The usual --mining-threads option (followed by the number of threads to use) can be added if you do not mind a larger impact on your computer (performance, power use, etc.) and/or want to increase your support for the project and the network. In this case you can use the show_hr commend to optimize the number of threads vs. hash rate. Your cache size in megabytes or a slightly smaller number is a good start (e.g. 3 MB cache, try 2-3 threads).

Alternately, you can use the --start-mining option (followed by your own address) to mine to solo mine to your own wallet instead of donating. I still strongly encourage everyone to do this if you don't want to donate your resources. I'm more interested in supporting the network than I am in donations. As with all solo mining, you should not expect to receive (or donate) coins on a regular basis. Instead, view it as more of a lottery/raffle/drawing where you are occasionally rewarded for supporting the network.

In the future I plan to expand this feature into something more like Monero's upcoming smart mining, where it adjusts to computer usage, power source, etc. and automatically mines to your own wallet by default if you don't opt-in to donations. The upcoming GUI will support some of these enhancements. Feedback and suggestions welcome.

Please test, and just as importantly, please support the network!

47 000 aeon ?

Welcome!

bought some aeon, lets see where this goes, hopefully to the moon and beyond

ok. i'm glad if I help something

Thank you that is somewhat helpful. I will look at the memory maps more closely myself. I wouldn't expect the stacks to be fully mapped but maybe I'm incorrect. Anyway, I'm continuing to investigate.

Coming soon. You could probably get some of the third party Monero wallets to work, since the APIs are similar or identical.

is a gui wallet for this coin? something with a regular interface
