2600 and counting now. These are not even paid votes since there is not yet an adress published.

Yeah but you can buy Cryptsy Points with BTC and vote with them. Most of them are still paid votes.

Didn't knew that! But this is happening with most coins anyway.

Monero has almost 1000 votes on https://www.cryptsy.com/coinvotes/Smiley

It's 1059 now. I voted when it had only 3 votes. Smiley Didn't surprise me though.

I have put him and this whole history on the ignore, there is no point in waste time on that anymore.

The same as here, but without the trolls.
This is a new thread, moderated with the monero-extended account so that there will always be one or more moderators here.

If you wish to apply for moderatorship, PM me. Round-the-clock moderation is always welcome.

We had some hiccups with moderation at the beginning but it should revert back to normal. Give it a try. I personally will privilege posting on the moderated thread instead of here.

I enjoy your posts so I'll give the moderated thread one more try. but If I see one more of my posts deleted that is it. Just because you don't like a post you can't delete it if it's not a troll or fud.
Just for information: I am not the moderator of the moderator thread (I don't have time for this anymore). Anon136 is and we are presently and publicly discussing the exact rules of moderation.

Now, a summary of what is being discussed on the moderated thread (to encourage you to post there and not here):

- How to help with translation, in any language: https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/monero-client-net/
- The price obsession
- An anti-Monero Twitter campaign

quick question about merged mining:

If i mine monero and merge mine with fcn or mcn, am i losing out on potential monero?

Thanks  Grin

As i understand for merged mining there are not so optimized miners as are for mining Monero. What you get beside Monero is worth so little, that cant cover that difference.

So i would be better off just mining monero?

I have 8 cores and 4 nvidea 750 ti's, would my best bet be to run 3 cores on monero and run the 4 cards on darkcoin? or can i get away with adding more cores without taking away from the gpu processing??
This whole conversation would be better off either on the Moderated Monero General Discussion Thread or better yet on the Monero Mining (unmoderated) thread.

Will somebody clarify the mining exploit found. What % what miners disadvantaged and what pools were involved?

Good questions. You will have to ask the pools, as they are independent of the Monero project and I don't know. I just happened to overhear on #monero-pools.



There was a double share exploit. You could essentially send the same share, without the pool noticing it, which could boost your hashrate around 15% up (this exploit was used with the private miners from pools like monero.rs)

How it works/worked:
The pool normally detects if you send the same share, so you had to alter it. A share is 8 chars long (64bit) and based on this the share gets tested, if it is a legit share, but when checking for duplicate shares this doesn't get considered, so I could submit a share 123456789, which is different, but still legit, when 12345678 legit is. This got fixed, by adding this as condition to the dupshare test

i remember reading somewhere back in june around the mintpal pump that cryptsy thought there was some vulnerability with monero and CN coins. can't remember where i found this but it is perhaps buried within this thread

I remember that, too. But even Poloniex handled all problems, I suppose it's only about Cryptsy's lack of interest to CN coins. Not that they can't deal with vulnerabilities. Anyway, better late than never.

I don't know why they are too late to the game but it's good for them to add XMR finally.

i remember reading somewhere back in june around the mintpal pump that cryptsy thought there was some vulnerability with monero and CN coins. so now they must find the coin to be suitable, or they just had a good buying opportunity. can't remember where i found this but it is perhaps buried within this thread

XMR added to Cryptsy voting list. Let's vote on Cryptsy! They should add it asap.

I'm confident the entire reason BCX wants to "bet" is to pay for the hash power required to attack the coin. The reason he hasn't (seemingly) tried is probably because he doesn't want to expense it.

So no, Risto's refusal of the bet would have little to do with his confidence in Monero and everything to do with him not wanting to directly fund its attack.

Couldn't he fund the attack with the mined (&dumped) XMRs that he is mining or does the TW attack require him to waste the mining power?

If it can be hacked, cheated, or manipulated it must be done. Don't know what, if anything BCX was trying to point out. But this is the burden that comes along with new frontiers. If ya can't hold, best get off the ride now.  Grin

http://monerochain.info/charts/difficulty would have shown, but coincidentaly ... offline. Any newer service charting total network Hashrate?
Basically watch the drop in Hashrate once the pools applied the patch. Easy. Is 20957 khs now and was same order of magnitude days ago.
