ohh Sh#$# i have 24 phisical cores an runing only a simpleminer instance

As long as it doesn't get vandalized, sure. 

Each thread/core works on its own. For example, it is fine to use multiple instances of simpleminer (a single threaded application), up to one for each hardware thread.

Bumping this cause I had (have) the same problem. I'm absolutely positive I did not set a password for my wallet but it will not reopen. I mentioned it earlier in this thread but there was no reply, but now I'm thinking maybe I'm not alone. Really not sure what's happening and it's not a big deal for me personally since I didn't have many coins in my wallet, but still it is pretty frustrating.

XMR is the future.

Does each core from one CPU collaborate together on hashing or each core work on their own for solo mining?

I don't know. We need a volunteer to maintain a mining hardware comparison, but I don't think anyone has stepped up to do it yet.

I forgot to mention also the optimized miners. Both NoodleDoodle and Wolf have been working actively on optimizing the miner. This is extremely important because without them doing that, then someone else will optimize and most likely keep it for themselves.

They're best reached in IRC (#monero, #monero-dev, #monero-otc) from what I can tell, so maybe consider asking them if they want help? The more people testing these optimizations on different hardware will surely help them out greatly. Also, make sure to thank them both. Without Noodle, we'd be mining 14x slower than we are today.

Thank you for the tip. not really sure what i'm doing, pointed 7 cpus to extremepool.org using that easyminer program. all Fx-6300 cpus.. they arent beasts by any measure of the imagination but it's better than nothing. extremepool says my hash rate is 19.27 H/s is that any good?

Good approach. CPU coins and GPU coins can be very complimentary.

When doing this it is usually best to reduce the priority on your CPU coin BTW (using nice or the Windows equivalent) and/or reduce threads by one or two.

Been mining for over a day...how long does it usually take to find a block these days?

first of all didnt the bytecoin developers borrow from cryptonote developers?

Right now the biggest things being worked on have a bounty on them.

If you're looking for what's next in the works, well those need to be completed.

Bitkoot has put out a functional GUI wallet, but it's not yet cross platform. If you run on windows, he needs feedback from end users trying that out. This has the possibility to be ported so that it can be cross platform, so please put your feedback in that thread. It's linked in the OP. Others have been working on different wallets, some might have posted them. These people really need feedback otherwise they're operating in the dark. The feedback can best come from any of us, as we're the ones using it. So, if you'd be kind enough please try it out and make a note of anything that you think doesn't work out great or can be done better and then post it

The same goes for all of the pools, they're only a few days released. Zone117x is an extremely competent developer, and the pool operators are running the software. It still needs tested heavily for your use. That's where any end user comes in. Feel free to make constructive comments on that thread, also listed in the OP. I know Archit also had a pool implementation, so maybe if anyone feels up to it could contact him and set up a pool if he's ready? Same goes for anyone else here just looking to mine. Please share your thoughts with constructive comments in that thread.

Those are two major hurdles that we can all help tackle as far as the technical end goes.

If you're looking to help with marketing, I think davidlatapie can set you up with something to do. If not, give him ideas. Feel free to send him a pm and maybe you both can come up with awesome ways to get us into markets. Also, there's a logo contest on 99 designs. Feel free to make a logo and submit it!

I posted this yesterday and I will post it again. I see both DRK and MRO overtaking other alts in not too distant future. It may be a bad data sample today, but LTC didn't rebound as well as it should have based on BTC spike. Perhaps the market it raising some questions. I am also beginning to question whether the scrypt ASIC manufacturers will be able to give it an artificial boost in time, although it certainly cannot be written off.

if we agree that no one knows how the mind works then we do not know how the mind works.

Just started mining this, liking it so far, my rigs gpus have been mining for a longtime and now my cpus can get in on the action. Not a single wasted computing cycle, because ain't nobody got time for that.

Why do we have to do this with EVERY SINGLE NEW COIN that hits an exchange successfully? If you don't like the coin, just go away and find one that you do like, if you do like the coin, welcome! 

MRO took CryptoNote from the bottom of the ocean up to the surface, and like others have said, with no logo or a real GUI wallet. Wait till all the rest is sorted out and it really can go to da moon.

I'm generally on the anonymous train and I also have some vertcoins (that rocket will never take off it seems - might as well sell them if I lose patience).

I don't marry my coins because every single one of them has weaknesses. DRK V1 will need improvement, Bytecoin is 80% premine so it's doomed, Anoncoin is going nowhere with zerocoin, Zerocoin itself seems too uncertain and too government-funded, Libertycoin saying it wants to implement a basic darksend as libertysend in a week or so seems absurd and desperate (a week? wtf), Monero and other Bytecoin clones are just clones.

The only two that seem fixable, regarding their weaknesses, are DRK in V2 with all-around-anonymity and Bytecoin but not in its current state (due to the 80% premine), rather a second incarnation with technical upgrades which obsolete the current cryptonote model. Or that's my estimation anyway. If I knew the future I'd be a trillionaire

What I know for sure is that the anonymous market will be too large to ignore and that's why there is all this "competition" and rivalry. I've been saying it ever since it had something like 2-3mn market cap and now it's over 40 or 50mn. The main bet is that Bitcoin will not really adopt private features due to wanting to be transparent for regulators, or if it does, these features will not be at the level of the anonymous competitors who will conduct these transactions.
