I used web-wallet. It works fine.

Use the cli and dump it as long as it's above 100sat dude. RUN!

Wallet stuck on 362027, but for a short time jumps to 362276.
All options are not available in "wallet actions", probably they are not available if the wallet is not synchronized. But i delete all files in DB and reloaded it from zero, it did not help.
I think this is a dead end. Can you recommend another GUI Wallet for Ryo?

When you restart the wallet - does it catch up and than is stuck at some height, or it is always at 362027 no matter how many times you restart wallet/pc?
+also have you tried to press in "wallet actions" -> "rescan wallet" (rescan full blockchain)

Hi, RyoCurrency.
I try remote daemon only, local daemon only and  local+remote daemon. Result is same, wallet not finishing sync.
Synchronization now stops at block 362027.
 

Hi, snurfel.
Have you tried remote-only mode in settings? Does it finish syncing?

Atom Ryo Wallet 1.4.0-0.5.0.1 is not fully synchronized. Stoping at block 362276.

Hello RYO-FANS!

Dumpy-dump?! 

Are you planning to add hiding IP addresses of nodes?
For example, using TOR and obfuscation?

[Reminder] If you haven't yet updated your wallets (cli or GUI) to version 0.5.0.1 Fermi Paradox - it is the time to do it.
In less than 24h Ryo network will have an update.

Ryo Wallet 1.4.0-0.5.0.1 (Daemon update for upcoming fork)
Current release: Atom v1.4.0
Daemon version: 'Fermi Paradox' 0.5.0.1
Ryo Wallet Atom 1.4.0 updates Ryo Wallet with the latest daemon in preparation for the hardfork.
Ryo Wallet 1.4.0-0.5.0.1

GPU mining, asic/fpga resistance, pprivacy be default and 12-month emission curve etc

1/10 score troll attempt xD

I think all these are already available in bitcoin. This is not something new. You can't have success unless you bring something new like addressing problems already faced by blockchain/cryptocurrency.

[UPDATE][M] Ryo Currency 0.5.0.0 "Fermi Paradox"

Meet Ryo Currency 0.5.0.0 update - Fermi Paradox. In this update we will discuss 3 updates and do one announcement in the source code, 2 of them will be the first among any Cryptonote projects:

• Wallet Scan speedup thanks to ECC and multi-threading library.
  Increased wallet scan speed when processing blockchain. New Elliptic Curve Cryptography library combined with implemented multi-threading that ustilises user's CPU results in reduced block verification up to 5x times compared with previous modes.
• Plateau emission curve.
  Ryo's block reward changes every 6-months following a "Plateau Curve" distribution model. The modification of emission curve was initiated and debated with Ryo community. The following fork will finalise and implement that change.
  Notice: the difference between previous and this model will take effect at block height 394470.
  Read more about Ryo plateau emission curve
• Various code edits, refactoring and minor fixes.
  There are multiple code fixes and edits that could be considered minor when looked in particular, but when looked in general - result in more than 35.000 lines of code being changed making core code more clean, optimised and bugfixed.
  Check Ryo Github repository

Research and studies of Ryo Dev team showed that current ring signature technology as it is - is obsolete and has too many flaws to be considered as a means for reaching the goal of the second level of of privacy. Therefore we will be replacing ring signatures with second generation ZK-proofs technology in observable future and temporarily downgrade privacy level to 1.

In general, you can consider privacy levels like that:

• level 0 - everyone can look into your wallet and know your transactions (BTC level)
• level 1 - nobody can see inside of your wallet, but each note has a serial number (yes, this is real life money level and in CN coins is implemented using stealth addresses)
• level 2 - notes you have don't have a serial number to a guy that gave you one, and no-one can't know if you spent it later (In CN coins it is implemented using ring signatures - which are the failing ones)

What we are saying is over the past year or two, researches stripped ring signatures of their privacy properties so much, that we think it is no longer fair to say that we (or Monero, which is even worse since it has even smaller ring size compared to Ryo) or any other CN project that uses it - meet the level 2 of privacy.

So, summarising in non-tech words what does it mean - when you are doing a transaction and want to imagine how it looks like in system:

• bitcoin - "I spent output 10, worth 1 BTC and output 22, worth 0.5 BTC"
• ring signature (current CN coins) - "I spent output 10, 14, 18 or 20, and output 16, 18, 19, or 22"
• zk-proof - "I spent something."

Fork is scheduled on block 362000: you can check fork countdown on Ryo Currency website
Please update your wallets before this block, or your previous wallet will stop synchronising after the block 362000:

• Ryo Wallet Atom: download latest Atom installer when annouced update to version 1.5.0, start it and perform reinstall.
• Ryo cli binaries: download or compile from source updated binaries from Github version 0.5.0.0 and unzip it, and place your wallet key files in new folder.
• Pool owners and exchanges are notified about updating their nodes to the latest version before the fork.

Questions you might have regarding the fork:
- What will happen with mining algorithm - will it change or what does "fork" mean - coin is split on 2?
No, "fork" basically means major code update that is being activated on a specified block height. There will be no mining algorithm change or chainsplit.

- Ryo roadmap indicates that you had in plans reaching 100x ring sizes. In light of future introduction of ZK-proofs does it mean that this is not aplicable?
Yes, we eventually will be replacing ring signature technology on ZK-proofs, which is more fundamental change than trying to "beat dead horse" with ring signatures.

- What about atomic swaps? Ryo roadmap indicates it being planned, is it still possible with introducing ZK-proofs?
Yes it is! And we aim to implement this feature after all necessary updates in core code. It is important to have everything implemented and tested before adding that feature.

- What is a ZK-proof?
ZK stands for zero-knowledge. In cryptography, a zero-knowledge proof is a method by which one party (the prover) can prove to another party (the verifier) that they know a value x, without conveying any information apart from the fact that they know the value xYou can read more about zero-knowledge proof (with real life examples) here.

- Will blockchain grow faster (what about tx size) when moving to ZK-proofs?
Overall, transactions and blocks using ZK-proofs will be even smaller in size than pre-fork ring signatures with bulletproofs! Plus it enables transactions to be aggregated together - this is obviously a major scalability gain for Ryo Currency.

- I heard or as far I understand that ZK-proofs are somewhat less private? Does it mean that you are not privacy-oriented project anymore?
No, in short - we decided to do this change to second gen. ZK-proofs, because ring signatures as is are too weak on providing enough for us default level of privacy and overall are considered now as an obsolete technology. So we don't want to say that we have a privacy level of 2, when research shows that it is not.

- Ok, after 0.5.0.0 fork - will we be using uniform payment ID-s to do transactions on exchanges?
Yes. There are no changes regarding usage of payment ID-s and integrated addresses. We will be still using ring signatures, but also are announcing our goal on moving to ZK-proofs.

- What else is there in plans/ideas you have in development of Ryo?
Besides all plans and development ongoing with Ryo (wallets, infrastructure, core code and researches) we also developed and improve Mining platform RagerX. It is a all-in-one mining platform that unites a miner, pplns pool, OS, GUI flasher utillity, pool frontend and has advanced social features as well as 2 level affiliate program. In observable future we will add Cryptonight-GPU mining possibillity.We are implementing RagerX so people can mine CPU coins and Ryo simultaneously. Which means more eyes on Ryo, especially from fresh members.

- Are the ring signature issues that have been discovered are applicable to other ring signature based coins like Monero?
Yes.

thanks for your article!
One edit: Cryptonote-GPU should be replaced on Cryptonight-GPU to be correct

 Please note mc stands for mining coin symbol, c stand for payout coin symbol
 
 Autoexchange to BTC, LTC, DASH, BCH, DOGE or any other currency we mine
 Happy mining,
  cheers pinpin

As many have noticed, RagerX currently supports CPU-only mining (Monero pool). Our development team works not only on growing tall by making CPU mining optimisations, bugfixes and tests, but also wide (adding more supported devices and algorithms).

It is not a secret that adding GPU mining in addition to CPU mining would be a major step forward and new era for the platform, and work in that direction is also being done.

Our developmment has come to a point that we are happy to announce tentative release date of first GPU coins that are planning to be added to RagerX platform - it will happen around in the end of February 2020.


On the first stage there are 3 more mining possibillities that are planned for being added:

• Ryo Currency (Cryptonight-GPU algorithm)
• Epic Cash (ProgPow GPU algorithm)
• Epic Cash (RandomX CPU algorithm)

Adding to already existing Monero pool, we are coming to these 2 mining "combos" for users being available after the release:

• Epic Cash (ProgPow GPU) + Epic Cash (RandomX CPU)
• Monero (RandomX CPU) + Ryo Currency (Cryptonight-GPU)

5 winners will be chosen on live stream with SavageMine on Friday 9:30 PM EST and will get 1000 Ryo each.

Happy New Year dear RYO community!
My wish for all of us: stop wishing - start doing! Good things are going to happen!
A new year, a fresh start and infinite possibilities. Hope we all will have a wonderful year ahead!

AMD RX 5500XT tested on Cryptonight-GPU
Quite nice efficiency gain, while staying at RX580-8 speed!
