Botnets again?

I don't know if this will help, but sometimes my executables end up in a /bin directory.

are your wallet files backed up on a USB key? And you should be able to rebuild your wallet based on the mnemonic seed, right? Even for your original wallet.

I have them backed up on a USB key, but I've tried 2 different Linux systems and hardware and neither of them can be opened it seems.
I'm going to try Windows next as it's the only thing I can think of.

There is no Slack group for Monero. Maybe you confused with the Slack group for HyperStake, which is completely unrelated to Monero.

But not extremely explicit/accurate in it's meaning.

That was pretty economical, you have to admit.  

Prophylacticated barriers prevent communicable diseases.

Translated from verbose pompousity:

Condoms are your friend.

I get that a lot.  I think of it as using the best words to most accurately convey a thought, sometimes at the expense of easy reading.  Some people prefer 8-bit though.  Capture the essentials economically:


Fastidious connectors are good though.  They are less likely to spread diseases.

Aminorex is a sucker for pompous verbosity. Just read his comments through that filter. There's some decent information to be gleaned. Maybe not this, though. You should be extra-wary whenever devs or CEOs start talking magnanimously about shit that *might* be released in a year from now.  I generally assign such projects a probability of 0 of ever coming to fruition.

Is it possible to join the Slack group?

I'm glad you used the word potential.

Casheer platform launch October 2015


At least they have a "Passionate community builder and fastidious connector" on their team

so, at least the daemon is excited!

and im assuming this is still the old database because it was gobbling up 33% RAM on my 16 gig system.

But I was able to run simplewallet, and it gave me the new mnemonic, and found my old coinage.

Noob-approved method to get monero updates (im the noob):
(i'm assuming here Ubuntu, with the ability to have multiple windows of terminal, and that you know that ./ will execute a file, and using a GUI to drag .n drop files, because I'm a noob, and you could be one too, and thats OK, because linux)

1. exit wallet, daemon
2. rename bitmonero folder to bitmonero_old_date (for archive purposes)
3. goto http://www.monero.cc/getting-started/index.html , and copy the second linux command thing listed under Source (item #2 on the list), paste into terminal
4. Watch the magic of compiling. Choose NO for download blockchain (you should already have it)
5. When finished, fire up the daemon, which can be found (with other executables) in bitmonero/build/release/bin
6. Watch the magic of p2p blockchains
7. goto the bitmonero_old_date folder, locate all of your wallet files (.bin, .bin.address.keys, .bin.keys) - copy these files to bitmonero/build/release/bin
8. goto bitmonero/build/release/bin and run simplewallet with your old wallet file
9. write down mnemonic in as legible handwriting as possible
10. send me some monero : 46aRPgXEgqf23G2VU5fy4oeKBGpU6uXSv57CkXKrz4EbDwDeh573QQhZYeyjriWAMUhNoBHMUwkGV2A 2ppWwAx4JT9HNJ9h


(edited twice - once for type, once for more details on daemon version)

For your info:

Cool, all the more reason to utilize Slur or whatnot, so that a journalist doesn't know the identity of a source.

link doesn't work for me?

This has potential:  http://test.casheer.net/mission/

NSA probably dipped into the dossiers of judges who would not comply and showed them what they had on them.

WTF does this mean?
Sounds like he's saying they were coerced.

IN the USA, under law, journalists are no longer allowed to keep sources confidential. http://rt.com/usa/nyt-risen-leak-espionage-336/

Nothing really new, other than the medium/method of exchange for the info/currency.

You do realize that journalists write articles every single day where they relay information from individuals "closely involved in the project" etc., correct?
In some cases the identity of the source of the info is actually unknown to the journalist.

Chuckled a little.

OK, it was a lot
