A gui, mac bineries. And accessible windows bineries. The link at the begging does not work.

GUI and Mac binaries are both being worked on. Someone has already replied about the Windows binaries.

It is very early in this history of this coin.



I know taco is working on GUI but did anyone confirm they were working on Mac?

My comment was not that I feel left out. Rather, I am impressed with the background of cryptonight. I have very limited ability to understand the technology. I very much feel that much of what is written on these forums are beyond me. However the philosophy great.  Some thing that appeals to me. I also feel that there is a great opportunity here that has been missed. You and thankful could have collaborated and brought bytecoin 2.0. A coin that builds onThe previous version. A gui, mac bineries. And accessible windows bineries. The link at the begging does not work.

Those are my thoughts.these, just criticisms and from me who has nothing to Contribute really. I am just impressed with all of this, crypto currency technogy. I can barely understand it.



The forum messed up the link because of its # character. Copy-paste the whole thing and it does work: https://mega.co.nz/#!dIMVWYTI!kHTvcON_liMT-14--iLM6VMK_zv0dYe5mbBxVT8_Cv4

This coin is a work-in-progress. I would've waited for a GUI before release but at this point I think it's proven its legitimacy by fixing a blockchain-killing bug.

another link to the windows binaries is here: https://anonfiles.com/file/557536bff04c9dbb85d290233850873b

difficulty is almost at 100k

I am new to cryptocurrencies. Some of you are so familiar with the process that complicated steps are deemed simple to you. With that said I was able to download and mine bytecoin bcn. As of today I can not download bitmonero for windows. This I believe is  rush job attempting to be first to market and increase profit margin on very early knowledgeable adapters.

That may be true on many coins but this one has a very slow mining schedule, pretty close to bitcoin (years). Nobody is gobbling up all the coins early. No instamine here. Anyone involved in the first few years is an "early adopter."

There was no attempt to move forward cryptonote vision. No attempt to improve on the delivery or execution of bytecoin bcn.  If I can download and mine bcn and cant do the same for bitmonero, this I think implies poor execution. I use myself as a basis because I did not even know what a cmd line was until 3 weeks ago.


you can also follow these simple instructions:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bcn-bytecoin-not-a-bitcoin-fork-how-to-544715

even if you start mining three days after launch you're still in a pretty good place.

Current difficulty is 93367, until we hit 250k or so you should still be able to solo with a good CPU

Open up NotePad, copy-paste the following, and save it as run.bat (make sure the actual file type is .bat and not .txt). Put it in the same folder as the bitmonero executable files, double-click it, and it'll take care of everything. Then you let the blockchain sync and type "save" in the bitmonerd terminal when it's done. Type "start_mining X" in the simplewallet terminal where X is the number of CPU threads (replace with whatever number of threads you want, usually number of cores x2 if only CPU mining or one less if simultaneously GPU mining something else).

But what you're missing is that there are people here, including the developer, willing to help you on a daily basis. Perfect example is that there is an IRC channel designed to help you along with this thread so that you can be helped to solve your problems.

I'm willing to help as well, as I've had no issues and am using windows 7. If that sounds like your situation then I think I can be of help.

Do you need a link to the download file, or are you having problems with installation?

There was no 'immediate' need to move forward with CN vision. They are looking for people to fork the coin, thus it was forked. What do you think needs changed? If you have ideas then please share them, because the main way to move the 'vision' forward is in a dynamic environment . . not a static one for weeks.

Already, there was a change in the original source that was used because it acted the wrong way. This seems like the perfect example of how the 'vision' moves forward. The attempt is in the fact that every day you come back and more people are interested, and that it's still here and getting better. Not that someone figured out everything before you ever entered the picture. You can be a part of this so if you have ideas share them.

Hi,

I started the daemon up and it seems done catching up with the block chain. Starting simplewallet.exe I encounter a problem:

Code:
2014-Apr-20 05:09:50.458935 bitmonero wallet v0.8.5.294(0.1-g147aac7)
2014-Apr-20 05:09:52.226036 ERROR ..\..\src\wallet\wallet2.cpp:430 e || !exists. THROW EXCEPTION: error::file_not_found
2014-Apr-20 05:09:52.226036 ..\..\src\wallet\wallet2.cpp:430:struct tools::error::file_error_base<1>: file not found "mein_wallet.bin.keys"
2014-Apr-20 05:09:52.226036 Error: failed to load wallet: file not found "mein_wallet.bin.keys"
2014-Apr-20 05:09:52.229036 ERROR ..\..\src\simplewallet\simplewallet.cpp:254 could not open account
2014-Apr-20 05:09:52.229036 ERROR ..\..\src\simplewallet\simplewallet.cpp:909 Failed to initialize wallet

I use the following parameter with my simplewallet.exe-short cut: simplewallet --wallet-file=mein_wallet.bin
What am I doing wrong?
How can I start mining?

Thx

You're missing "mein_wallet.bin.keys". Did you generate a wallet? The command will be:

simplewallet --generate-new-wallet=mein_wallet.bin --pass=123

The password can be anything you want (123 here as an example).

ty that helped alot Smiley

I'm looking at the source code for bytecoin now, it looks like it has everything it needs to do getblocktemplate as in bitcoin using the RPC server that bytecoind spins at 127.0.0.1:18081.  Going to look over eloipool now

I have 13,381.55 bytecoins. Anyone wants to trade for bitmonero?


also where do i get a list of commands? I want for example to get address and send coins...

P.S. As far as i can tell right now this is the only cpu coin that exists? Maybe riecoin too but not for long.

I will add bitmonero and the cryptonote info to the site.
Thank you. I guess you did not have time to do it yet, I see nothing on the website.

Yes, I'll be buying those. I just did it to be first (sorry, David).
Don't be sorry Smiley First, it is the game and second and most importantly, my goal was less to get BMR than to initiate the trading. See me as lazlo buying pizzas in 2010: not doing it for pizzas, but doing it for the crypto Smiley

Bitmonero cheatsheet

Code:
./bitmonerod     (start_mining, stop_mining, exit, save)
./simplewallet         (start_mining, stop_mining, exit, refresh)

./simplewallet --generate-new-wallet=bitmonero_wallet.bin
./simplewallet --wallet-file=bitmonero_wallet.bin

./simpleminer (don't know why to use it, since simplewallet is enough for mining on max threads)
connectivity_tool (don't know why to use it for)

./simpleminer and connectivity_tool, I don't see the use of them
