Working Raspberry pi wallet? I only see a 64bit linux wallet no pi build.

no RPi wallet right now as the RPi doesn't have enough RAM to run the current wallet efficiently
1gb isn't enough? Well odroid is a pi style board runs archlinux has 2gb ram, an arm wallet should be developed.

If you'd like to donate an odroid C2 (or the funds towards me buying one), then I'd be happy to add it to the list of things that need to get done Smiley

It's not like we can control who or how much coins people own.  So it's not like we.can control the market cap. Maybe I don't understand but seems uncontrollable. I think there are a few large investors that probably don't care about that so much, but it makes the market cap higher? I can't afford to pay for it at the moment, or I would. Nothing wrong with that either.

It does not really work like that, basically marketcap is just total ammount of coins x the avarage trading price. But because there are most likely allot of lost coins, just like most other altcoins and even bitcoin the real amount of coins that could possibly be traded is lower then the ammount of coins in existence.

well that is an indicator, most wise investors pickup on.  

I didn't realize there was a single bitcointalk account that speaks for "most wise investors".  Cool.   Cheesy

3 block explorers total that I am aware of.  One may lose SOME functionality.  Or someone will pay a bit to bring it back online instantly at any point in time.

 Idk what it indicates. We are penny pinchers? If it's so important to you then go ahead and pay. What does market cap supposed to do with it?

great source;
long story short for UNO is that we watch coin movement (small coin count so comes with the territory)
we knew the cryptsy hotwallet and cold wallet;
there is a bench order freezing the funds; they later move to bittrex account, we moved fast and it looks like Bittrex has 'secured' the funds; Vern is out $50k that he planned to dump.  no word on the legal smegal side, yet.

re: BE (block explorer) / "Who has the authority to say that $1M needs this or that?"  I do.  And anyone does.  It is not authority it is common sense.  If I see a coin community with $50k cap able to maintain presents on the better BE providers via crowd funding but a $1M cap coin can't ... well that is an indicator, most wise investors pickup on.

What is the CPU on your computer with the wallet?

For me, bootstrap is synced in a matter of hours.

bootstrap doesn't help at all, it's the same speed from disk as from network

Just to clarify, this is not a true statement although I understand why you may feel this way.

oooph,
folks, mint wallet sync speed is among the lowest i've ever seen, worse than hbn.
so large thread, so much work, and yet so slow sync, i don't get this.
well to be honest i know a little slower sync, it's lftc, but ... ridiculous to compare.
maybe i don't know some trick to speed it up huh ?
thx for any advice

P.S. i mean speed, blocks per min (not total time to sync, bootstraps and such)

If your worried about slow sync speed you should use the bootstrap to speed things up a bit.  Overall sync times should be improved somewhat with the 2.1 release but we have not set any specific dates for that release.  Your mint wallet should come online about once a month to download the blockchain and ease overall download maintenance times but is not required.  Mint has 30 second block times so I'm not sure I understand your additional comments about speeding it up in comparison to other wallets.

I think exchanges need to make their security such that even someone within the company cannot access your funds. Time and time again it proves third parties cannot.be trusted if anyone has access to coins other than the owner, eventually coins get swiped.

[1]
just an FYI ... UNO community has always kept an eye on exchange held coins ... and we knew which wallet was the Cryptsy wallet ... long story short ... someone sent all those coins to bittrex to be sold ... and because bittrex was informed by team UNO that this happened (and there is a legal court order to not move the funds) ... it looks like the UNO is now in safe hands ... cool story no?  Sad to say it looks like BigVern is dumping all coins in his control and unless you can track and trace him.

rise up and fund the BE ... you are not a legitimate $1M coin club without a fairglu blockchain Wink


1.  It's a shame he has control of the coins at all. Too much power for one individual to have. That's my point: I'd rather see the coins be lost forever than swiped by some top person in an exchange.

2. We have been funding the BE (block explorer), for probably close to a year or so since it was available. I'm sure we'll get it funded up again too. But to say things like you aren't legitimate is rather prejudice. Who has the authority to say that $1M needs this or that? The problem with that, especially for Mintcoin, I think, is that a large % of Mintcoins were lost over the years due to multiple exchange failures, (similar to Cryptsy). I think with MINT, the calculated marketcap may look higher than the real market capitalization because of that. Idk for sure but just something to think about. I know a lot of mintcoins are out of circulation. Actual coins in circulation is probably like 70% of total. Something to consider I guess.

I'm not sure I was using any sarcasm.  I am saying that updates have been coming directly from the devs in the form of actual software with release notes, official bootstrap, etc.  The devs have been quite clear that they are moving towards a 2.1 release and activity shows that on Git.  Everyone working on mintcoin is a volunteer with other jobs and projects.  I would prefer the devs focus on coding and doing the work that only their expertise can provide rather then PR, CS, and general admin work.  Perhaps I can help you?  Is there specific info your looking for?  It's quite clear that there has been plenty of communication and software releases within the last 6 months.

But yes...we all miss cryptomommy.  SIGH.  Maybe you can help provide some of the updates that she can no longer do?  What type of info is needed in your opinion?  Are you interested in helping with mint?  Have you seen the history thread?  Just trying to help kind sir.  Smiley

ah, thanks for the link, its quite awesome! I was looking for something along the link i posted (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.14460950) which updates on progress even if there is no release. Not everyone is familiar with github and how to understand the activity going on there. It is a whole new jargon/language to learn. Probably the problem is that this is a very generic/large refresh of the code and there is no specific thing to let people know about. It will come out and everyone will feel the difference in performance but not so much in UI. To provide updates one needs to at least read the dev disscussions, i do that with DCR & BTC core(i mean read dev chats, not the updates Tongue) but i have only so much time. All big coins have some kind of updates that let people know what devs are thinking & discussing. If someone can do that it would be amazing.

Hey devs, how is the progress on the wallet? Its almost 6 months i think since you started the codebase update. It would be cool if you can give us a report every few weeks. We know you are working hard but if we can see what is being done even if its a bit technical then it would give us some indication how things are going & how far are we from the big release. Thanks for all your work Smiley

EDIT: Something like this will inspire some confidence.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.14460950

Keep in mind that there have been actual working wallet releases since work was started on the 2.1 codebase.  These releases added new features which are fully documented by the devs and push towards the 2.1 release.  You can see an example of this for wallet version 2.0.2 released on 3/2, about a month ago.  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.14070605

After the 2.0.2 release, an official bootstrap was released on 3/12 and updated on 4/5.  See the history thread...
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.13798259

Additionally, you can see the devs work on Git with their individual accounts that merge into the main account.  Fuzzbawls release notes for 2.0.2 gives you specific documentation of code changes with direct individual links on Git for each change.

Would additional updates be cool?  Totally.  Should those additional updates come at the expense of writing actual code?

I'm not suggesting your point is invalid.  I'm just asking you to consider the other side of the coin.  Distracting the devs with requests for updates could be counter productive.  I would personally love to offer more updates in relation to coding the 2.1 wallet but general bug fixes and code modernization isn't always that exciting or easily consumable.  If it was then wouldn't you have your eyes glued to Git like your favorite T.V. show?   Wink

[EDIT]  Actually, a 24/7 reality show about development of a coin WOULD be pretty amazing.  24 hour market with a 24 hour show to match.  Cheesy
Thanks for replying. You don't need to defend & use sarcasm Grin I understand that devs are busy & i believe them completely but it would be much better if progress is visible to wider community and hodlers of the coin. I am sure a bi-weekly report is possible if that gives everyone a sense of direction and movement. Updates are not a time waste IMO but are rather important for how a coin is perceived. Development has to be balanced with communication. Makes sense?
PS: 1 update in 6 months is a bit unbalanced i think. Maybe i got too used to amazing updates by CryptoMommy Cheesy

What type of data is being retained by the UNO community in relation to exchanges?  Is the compiled info made public or only held by specific users?  Can you point to the legal court order?  Thanks.  Smiley
