Look at XC moderated thread for example, and you will consider what's actually WTF Closed source & censored discussion

If you can here - study a source and contribute a commit!

Haha, nice post.

I couldnt say it better.

Heres a quote from Gavin Andresen (Bitcoin) which fits perfectly:
“Do not treat the core development team as if we were a commercial company that sold you a software library. That is not how open source works; if you are making a profit using the software, you are expected to help develop, debug, test, and review it.”

PS: We have around 4-5k+ (!) changes on all our branches combined the last weeks.

Check Neos latest Pull request here: https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero/pull/58 "+4,490 additions −1,189 deletions + Files changed 52"

Hes prolly one of those Bytecoin fake accounts, so just ingnore.

Yes, I'm wondering how these people make it to the end of the bed in the morning. Every day I must demand field-leveling advancements that encompass redefining reality itself.

To settle for anything less means that the developers are completely incompetent and lazy. We should clearly all get torches and start a witch hunt.

Seriously, if you're planning on developing this coin you'd best make sure you hand me a million bitcoins first because I took all the risk here by mining and investing in your open-source coin. Then you can ask me for permission to develop this open-source software, because I felt forced to giving you my infinitely valuable attention.

Only after all of my demands have been met will I even consider allowing you to grace my pristine presence in this thread all my like-minded peers, and I'll also think about allowing you to compile binaries for us to use in which I will continue to acquire infinite money and bitches.

If people aren't constantly forced to, at least once every single day, stop dead in their tracks and re-consider their place in the universe thanks to the incredible achievements of such beautiful minds as the Monero development team well I just don't know what I'd do.

Everything they do is horrible, it sucks, I hate it, the world hates it, clearly we should just complain to them until everything gets better....

...is what I would say if I were some kind of pompous assbag.

They're doing this the right way. In real life, people that work for corporations take their time and apply fixes, they don't rush through things and give half arsed "solutions"

Would you rather have half arsed work that cause major problems down the road? Or rather have well done, professional solutions applied for today and with the future in mind?

You are more than welcome to contribute your coding skills. Otherwise, STFU and/or GTFO. Moron!  /sorry, but so sick of morons here lol. :\

Wow, so lame! I am pretty much thinking at this point that the "dev team" is not capable of progressing much on this. Four weeks and still analyzing the white paper?! WTF.

No major progress in the last two weeks? This is sick.

I now tried a few times on the irc channel, but nothing happened so far:

can you please send me my remaining balance for addr.

thanks..

When do you plan to release Monero binaries with rpcwallet? Approx.?


Please make instructions to migrate from 32-bit to 64-bit Monero sticky at 1st page of the thread - just for newbies. I had migrated and feel fine with Monero's 64-bit executables stability under Windows!

Monero Missives

July 6th, 2014

Hello, and welcome to our fifth Monero Missive!

Major Updates

1. fluffypony had a great time discussing Monero at the Bitcoin Supernode Conference in Estonia. Many thanks to rpietila for hosting him and all attendees.

2. Work on the academic peer review of the CryptoNote whitepaper is slowly starting to move away from an academic platform and on to the code itself, to determine whether the reference implementation correctly implements the whitepaper. Before that happens, though, a summary of the initial findings will be published. We are expecting this to be completed this coming week.

3. Transaction auto-splitting is now in the main codebase. To explain our methodology: the main github repo will always be "active development", and may contain code that will be reverted or is not fully tested. For those that are brave and want to test and contribute to development, it is the ideal starting point. However, on an ongoing basis we are going to create tagged releases, whereby when a group of new features have been fully tested, a new release can be tagged, and binaries can be put out (along with the code on the github tag, of course). Expect this change to start taking effect within the next 4 weeks.

4. We'd like to apologise for not finalise the GUI bounty - everyone has been a little scattered this week. We will resolve this in its entirety within the next 48 hours!

Dev Diary

Core: daemonizing changes are ready for testing: https://github.com/mikezackles/bitmonero/tree/daemonize

Core: rpcwallet is ready for testing: https://github.com/tewinget/bitmonero/tree/rpcwallet


This Missive is a little light on major updates (well, we can't have something major every week;) primarily because there has been lots of plotting and planning this week. As always: you can keep up to date with the nitty-gritty on IRC in #monero-dev on Freenode if you're interested.

Until next week!

Extreme Pool

Extreme Pool has updated its Monero pool to the latest code!  Enjoy

http://mro.extremepool.org
http://www.extremepool.org

I seriously doubt that. I think it's already priced in. People are not so dumb to value the currency completely differently if there is "official" on the name of the GUI or not.
To me it's like mintpal, everybody was like "it will skyrocket", but in fact this was completely integrated in the price already.

I've looked at XC for a while....it simply uses coinjoin and calls that "anonymity". And that is considered laughable..Read Gmaxwell's posts, he  is the creator of coinjoin, and has said himself that it is not anonymous, even the slightest bit of taint when mixing and it would be possible to discover who sent what and where.

All coinjoin does is mix transactions around, that's it, it shouldn't be considered anonymity.

You need to look at this other thread instead:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/xcxcurrency-decentralised-trustless-privacy-platform-encrypted-xchat-pos-630547

I'm hopeful that the senior members here would kindly deliver one of their interesting analysis, addressing the potential threat from XC. I'm not knowledgeable enough on the privacy implementations to discern an advantage here or there. The major downside with XC, for me, is that a) I don't hold any, and b) it's already turned PoS only.
  
Cheers,
~Myagui

you got a pm

That thread is locked...lmao

The real xc thread is moderated.

Reason is because Monero doesnt have an official GUI yet. There are GUI wallets you can use, but they're not the "official"  monero gui wallet.

Guys, does anybody know why XC is rising on Poloniex (not price only, but volume too), second day already? I look at their thread, and see last post Jun 29.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=600706.6100

WTF not Monero?

I actually think, but this is restricted to miners software only, not the main Monero executables, there is ENOUGH info for smart person to start mining. If you are not familiar with mining, may be it is not for you?

For example, as for me, I had more profit from exchange trading than mining.

First, ensure you have 64-bit windows, it is now necessary for Monero. Here I re-post instructions to migrate to 64-bit Monero:

*WINDOWS USERS* (I think Linux users may do very very the same)

In case of any technical problem you have encountered with Monero:

0. Assume your 32-bit wallet file name is "wallet.bin" (adjust this instruction for other name accordingly)
1. Backup your wallet.bin.* files.
2. Delete ALL Monero files from your computer.
3. Download 64-bit Monero zip & blockchain.bin from 1st sticky page of this thread.
4. Unzip & place all the files downloaded above to the directory: "C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\bitmonero\".
5. From the backup made at step 1, place wallet.bin.* files !!! EXCEPT wallet.bin itself !!! into directory at step 4.
6. Start bitmonerod.exe and wait for it to sync with the net.
7. Start simplewallet by the commad prompt: "simplewallet --wallet-file wallet.bin" (!!! name of the file that must NOT exist in directory at step 4 !!!).
8. When you want to stop any monero executables - ALWAYS type "exit" & be patient.

simplewallet re-creates correct version of wallet.bin for you.

Since you migrate to 64-bit Monero by CORRECT WAY mentioned above - you will never have any problem except being patient due to Monero is currently somewhat slow.


Second, as for me, I've downloaded binaries of Tsiv miner itself from:

http://cryptomining-blog.com/2897-new-ccminer-fork-with-cryptonight-support-now-available/

(being too lazy to compile from source or to be paranoidal from trojans)

- you simply extracts archive into any dir, than edit file XMR-START.bat, replacing pool address & your XMR wallet address, and run the .bat!

Note, stable work is guaranteed for latest Nvidia GPUs only, I prefer 750 Ti. Note also, it is not recommended to simultaneously work as user on a comp you mine for.
