Do you want your dentist to know how much money you have so he could charge you more eventually? Do you want a concurrent business to know your balances and where you are spending your money (if your suppliers or contractors are also using 0)? Do you want someone to blackmail you knowing the exact balance of your wallet?

Edit: Privacy is a proper term instead of anonymity.

This is not the case with XMR. This is the case with Bitcoin and clones mixing services. XMR is mixing directly with past transactions from the blockchain.

I think I've heard that using mixin can lead to longer times for transactions, because you need to wait for other transactions with the same amounts to come into the mempool before it gets picked up in a block.

Also, why don't use 0? I use 0 all the time. I don't really care about anonymity, so why use more than 0?

there are SO many of these libboost libraries. which one do you have installed specifically if you dont mind me asking?

when i search apt-cache for libboost-system i get the following


none of these are libboost_system.so.1.55.0

seems like your libboost installation is fucked up. Maybe try to reinstall?

When i try to run bitmonrod on linux i get


Anyone else experienced this? any idea what to do?

Hey everyone!

I would like to remind you about my 40 XMR bounty for creating a useful, beautiful and with screenshot annotated tutorial
on how to setup Monero for new users (download client, blockchain, create first wallet, sync, send money, ...) on Windows 7/8.

Only 2 days left to qualify. Register your username and post your tutorial on the new Monero Talk Forum.

The higher mixin_count won't make your transaction slower, but it'll make it bigger (regarding to size in bites, not the amount sent). Generally bigger transaction -> higher fee (only if you pass the current transaction size limit because of dust from pools and then you need to send it with 2 or more smaller transactions). Don't use 0 - use at least 1. I'm using 5 most of the times.

xmr.farm fast and reliable monero pool !  

XMR Recent price instability  

the mixin is kind of the degree of anonymity, so unless you really want to be anonymous, just use mixin count=0; this will also make your transaction faster I think, the higher the mixin the longer the transaction might take.

Thank you
I don't undestand the mixin count what number i have to type? 0 or 5? I want to send XMR to Poloniex

Let's keep the discussion factual.  First of all, both teams are making real progress where it counts:

Boolberry has contributed numerous code-level fixes to the inherited code from Bytecoin that have been later incorporated by the XMR team.

XMR has contributed numerous code-level fixes to that same code that have been / will probably be incorporated by Boolberry.

Boolberry has a working, cross-platform GUI.  XMR will soon as well, with several candidates being worked on.

Boolberry's "non-shit" changes, in your parlance, center primarily around mechanisms to keep the blockchain smaller over time by allowing some of the ring signature information in old transactions to be pruned after a period of time, and improvements to the mixing function to provide stronger assurances of anonymity.

Monero has triggered an explosion of awareness of both XMR and the cryptonote family more generally by providing the first available non-80%-premined implementation of the bytecoin codebase.

"Trash-talking" either BBR or XMR is, at this point, counterproductive:  It's very clear from their market behavior that people buying these coins are viewing them together as the leading options from a very interesting new family of coins.  They're not dumping XMR to buy BBR, or the opposite -- they're selling BTC (or, hopefully, some actual "shit coin" - grin) and buying either or both of them.

There's a lot more to be gained in cryptonote progress by pushing forward both the underlying CryptoNote technology and seeing if the differing feature sets of XMR and BBR help lead to further technological progress than by sniping from sockpuppet accounts.

That has to do with the pool aswell as if the admin has updated. Monerpool.com for me has 2 orphans in the last 150 blocks (1,3% orphans) .
Bad share variance depends on server location , vardiff , your internet connection and 100 different other parameters.
How big is your sample size ? 1-2-7-30 days ?

^The command is:
is the number of transactions yours is indistinguishable from (from 0 to maximum available)
[payment_id] is needed when you send to the exchanges and you get it from the particular exchange. It's not needed when you send to your wallet or someone else (except if he want to identify if this payment is from you and he'll then give you 64 characters payment ID.
Do not add '<', '>', '[' or ']' in the command.
Example (a valid transfer command, which will send 1 XMR to me with a PaimentID 'bzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzz4'):

Code:

transfer 5 4AyRmUcxzefB5quumzK3HNE4zmCiGc8vhG6fE1oJpGVyVZF7fvDgSpt3MzgLfQ6Q1719xQhmfkM9Z2uNXgDMqYhjJVmc6KX 1 bzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzz4

What is the command to send monero?

No. We restarted the website API after doing some changes.
It's just the website, not the server. The connections aren't interrupted.

BTW we are at Pool Efficiency: 114%. Which mean that we find 14% more blocks than average pool or solominers. If we get such a good result, some are doing really bad.

The following is quoted from ducknotes thread, since I am not mining other coin except xmr, I hope someone do mine all three coins to confirm the comparison below or make comment on that:


For those who can`t see differences from other cryptonote coins - look at source code, check % of orphans in the network, check % of "bad shares" on pools, you will see that duckNote is a winner. Like

24 hours of mining with the same mining software and hardware gives:
4% of bad shares on Monero
2% of bad shares on Bytecoin
0.5% of bad shares on duckNote.

Orphans in above networks 6/2/1.

Man, don't just give up on this. You've gotta believe in the CryptoNote, not in Monero. A coin is transient, they will probably come and go in hundreds and what really matters is the groundbreaking technology underneath Bytecoin, Quazar, Fantom, XMR, etc. that will live on no matter what happens with all these currencies. Do you get it?

Well, it's not really so simple and a few eloquent spatterings which ignore the differences between Bitcoin and CryptoNote.  Nope, that really doesn't do justice to a discussion on how a 51% attack may actually be affected by improved features of CryptoNight.  The discussion really should delve into the whitepaper (and other sources) deeper: https://cryptonote.org/whitepaper.pdf

Really consider the outcome of the random oracle.  What does it mean when the argument for forgery in Bitcoin is overcome by a forgery resistant algorithm?  It means that there is much more to consider here and the argument for 51% jeopardy associated with CryptoNote is nowhere near settled.  What good is a forgery when the forger(s) themself/selves can't make out what exactly was forged?  I think that's the whole point of CryptoNote and a huge reason why it's so important.  It's a tangled mess that can't be undone and this is the beauty of this algorithm: it saves ourselves from ourselves.  It's also designed to be more forkable with lesser consequence.

What the whitepaper fails to do is really get into the cruches of such an algorithm.  It's hugely complicated and you can see the overhead immediately if you have ever used the wallet or began to download the blockchain.  However, I agree with the white paper's summation that more than one coin may serve viable purposes and can coexist based on their own merits.
