What is PayBee and how is it related to Monero?
PayBee is a BitPay like payment processor. It will use Monero and Bitcoin as "default" currencies as far as I know.

Fluffypony explanation of "what is Paybee" is as follows:
It's a payment gateway I've been developing along with a few partners. We had to deal with a few false starts and issues along the way, but it's (finally) getting close-ish to release.

That is really awesome. I like it that it supports both Bitcoin and Monero, so the vendor does not need to implement different payment processors for each (relevant) currency.

Nowadays it is a mess with all the payment methods: paypal, credit card, wire, apple pay, amazon points and I don't know what. They all require their own portal. Things like this make me realize (again) how important of a role digital currencies are going to play on the internet.

A publication in the famous french newspaper website "Le Monde" about monero (and a rather good and well informed article) :

Hi,
I am quite a new user here, recently i started pool.monero.org on subleased domain. I hope i will buy monero.org domain. My goal is to move pool.monero.org to monero.org and i want to make the biggest open source monero pool there and to donate part of pool fee to Monero core developers.
At the same time i support Monero and i am a skilled programmer and i do QT.
After some research i found that monero have no good GUI wallet, but other CryptoNote coins have QT wallet.
Honestly, i can start Monero QT wallet development based on this https://github.com/cryptonotefoundation/cryptonotewallet
I think i can do it in about 2 weeks.
But i want to be paid for that in XMR by commmunity Grin

because i want to make the biggest open source pool and give part of pool fee to Monero developers, i want to be the Monero developer Cheesy

Is there any community bounty for XMR GUI development?

Is there any news when jwinterm will make any updates in the light wallet now that Monero is getting more popular? This is the right time to start working on the infrastructure and to make sure they are all working properly.

* jwinterm checks the news...

Nope, no news Tongue

Actually I will probably make at least some minor updates in the next week or two, but I just don't really have the time or inclination to put a ton of effort into at this point. It was kind of a learning Java/Libgdx project for me, and I thought if it could tide some folks until the Monero Core GUI came out, even better. Since it seems like the Core GUI is weeks away at this point, and I'm dealing with end of fiscal year madness at work right now, and I'm getting ready to sell a house halfway across the country, and school (and soccer and cheerleading and dance classes and etc.) all just started back up, I just don't see myself having much time at all to devote to it.

The code is up on github though, anyone is free to fork it and update it or make pull requests. Otherwise, just wait...it's coming...soon™ Cheesy

Ok thank you. I would only like to suggest that a proper working light wallet would really help with the adoption of XMR. Most of the people who will have interest in this will not be interested in downloading the whole blockchain and run a full node.

Also here's another problem. Maybe the Monero development team should look ahead and start thinking of ways of how to incentivize Monero nodes. I believe it will also have the same problems as bitcon in the future.

I am sorry but I still don't understand why you want a pool of your own. How much hashrate do you have?

Backstory - Already offered to help him but he wants a pool running on windows. No such thing, right? Tongue

Good luck bud. Tried. sorry! Tongue

Why not in a vm?

some will solo mine to their own pool to have more options in terms of miners.

We dont have political crisis in this community.

Not to be blunt, but that is just naive. There will be possibly severe disagreements along the way, especially when Monero gets more widely adopted.

Not just naive, but also accurate. There is no present political crisis. I think the closest we ever came to one was the division and heated discussion of the tail reward. I consider the outcome to have been a fair approximation to the optimum, so it was a worthwhile use of annealing energy. While I am critical: "possibly" seems weak. "Almost certainly" in the mathematical sense, seems apt.

http://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/1246/how-does-moneros-transaction-fees-change-according-to-price

Quote

dynamic fees currently do not exist yet and currently the fee is hardcoded

This concerns me. Unfortunately when Monero will be more widely adopted, hardforking will get harder and harder. Or at least consensus in what will be changed in the hardfork.

Quote

Monero's fees are not dependent on price. They are based on the size of the transaction (0.01 monero per kB, rounded up)

I know this is not easy to solve, but potentially a big problem when the price of a monero increases. As I said above, it could be that no future hardfork will take place / there is no consensus reached on how high the fee should be.

Monero is really elegant in it's dynamic block size and slowly decreasing blocksize, it learned from (the mistakes of) it's big brother. However the arbitrary and hardcoded fee amount feels very similar to Bitcoin's fixed block size. Any thoughts or ideas on this? Why (for example) can't I as a user determine the fee, and let the miner decide whether or not to include the transaction?

We dont have political crisis in this community. If FP proposes a hard fork to lower that value everyone will support it.

Not to be blunt, but that is just naive. There will be possibly severe disagreements along the way, especially when Monero gets more widely adopted.

edited to add - its obviously more complicated than that, and you'd have to compile your own code or connect your modded simplewallet to a remote daemon that has a lowered fee...... but this is all doable.

Correct and it doesn't require a hard fork as suggested earlier in the thread. It is convenient to make these sorts of changes coincident with a hard fork simply because that encourages everyone to upgrade and support the lower fees, but it is not absolutely necessary.

Thanks GingerAle and smooth, that is actually some kind of a relief knowing that a hard fork is not absolutely mandatory.

My hope is that we will be able to have a more elegant solution for the the fee amount, instead of it being hardcoded. Let's hope ArticMine come's up with a solution which can be agreed upon.
