Since the fork happened I have only noticed one orphan block on the mining pool I use.  Before the split we had 10 or more orphans.   I would suspect some of the bigger pools have seen more orphans since the split simply because of the higher hashing rate.  Looks like the move from one minute to two minutes per block have really helped out that situation.

I'm curious how a currency like XMR is allowed to trade on Polo. How can they comply with KYC and AML given the fundamentals of XMR?
and which fundamentals would be that? anonimity? lol
you mean the "same" anonymity" who made bitcoin what it is now? and by the same i mean the concept behind at the begin, doesn't matter if bitcoin isn't anonymous.

i've already said that i think most governments will fight against monero, simple because they already fight bitcoin, imagine what they will do against monero....

Well did they win in the case of bitcoin?

Yes and no. They haven't outright killed it, but that seems to be the case only because of the potential backlash.

State officials are very good at what they do, and it seems that with Bitcoin the plan is to throw a log in the wheel every now and then so that the end-user will never be your Average Joe.

They don't need to ban/attack/do chain analysis/etc. if they just keep Bitcoin so hard to use that the mainstream will never adopt it. And right now it is too hard to use for the average computer user, and even some of the more advanced users I've met I had to be very patient with. It would also seem like a good idea to let this community live, so that users like yourself can think that Bitcoin is 'winning' against the state. It's not, at most it is a thorn in their side.

There's also the problem with the Bitcoin community itself, that spouts shit equal to 'Bitcoin shouldn't be easy to use'. They don't say that outright, but they love to talk about the complexity of Bitcoin, they love to spout nonsense such as 'Bitcoin wasn't made for buying coffee' and to accuse people for doing 'spam attacks' when they make small on-chain transactions.

If you saw the Bitcoin-fiat dichotomy like a war, the people backing fiat would be making the most gains with the least resources... Or in other words, winning.

Do I need my wallet seed phrase to recover my wallet? - cant I just sync with the blockchain on a new PC , enter wallet name and password?

The wallet name is just a file name and the password is used to encrypt the file. Neither is sufficient to recover a wallet. You need the seed words or private keys (view key and spend private key in hex) to recover a wallet.

Quote
In the future - can we generate a seed in our native language ? - i.e. chineese or hindi?

Chinese is already supported I believe and other languages can be added by submitting a pull request to github (or sponsoring someone to do so).

EDIT: I just looked in github and apparently Chinese is not supported. I remembered there being a discussion about it a while back so I thought it had been added by now, but apparently that hasn't happened yet.

Quote
What is the .keys file for that came with the simplewallet and all of that stuff?

The keys file contains the private keys and also can give you the seed words (if the wallet is deterministic). A backup of the .keys file is sufficient to recover the coins in the wallet.

Quote
I have got a wallet up and running by usining bitmonerod to sync then running simplewallet...im wondering what all the other files in this folder are for?

The other files hold a cache of some parts of the blockchain used by the wallet along with your transaction history. You won't lose your coins if you lose those files but it is good to keep them for the history part.

- when I start_mining 3  - do funds auto send to my wallet or do I need to set up where the miner pays me? - with intel core i7 processor and nvidia gtx1080 what setting shall I use when start_mining? 1,2,3,4? - or higher?

start_mining will send the funds to you wallet if and when you find a block. With only 3 threads it will take quite a while most likely (this is solo mining). Also the built in wallet/daemon miner only supports CPU. To mine on the GPU you will need to use a GPU miner (see the "getting started" page on most pools). Personally I have always liked the idea of pool mining with the GPU and solo mining with the CPU. The former gets you regular consistent payouts and the latter helps support the decentralization of the network and will occasionally (or more often if you are lucky) pay you a bunch more coins.

Can anyone give me a step by step guide about the light wallet? I clicked "create" but nothing happens. Do I need to do something else before I can create a wallet using the light client? Please help me.

Lets say I make a wallet on a USB drive ...that USB gets destroyed in a house fire...

Can I download another wallet...type in wallet name and pass? - or do I need this long phrase?

Crypto is the separation of Power and State.

Western union accepts cash.

Ba Dum Tss!
We live in a crazy world where financial privacy is considered a crime. Monero is a tiny voice against this truly absurd mantra.

The ultimate heresy against the religion of statism is Sovereign Individuality, which is empowered by the financial sovereignty Monero enables.

If we don't get them first, the statists will burn us all at the stake.  For The Greater Good®, of course....   Undecided
