I sent an email to Kraken asking them to add Monero.  This was the response:

Thanks for asking about Monero. We don't have any plans to add any other digital currencies at the present time. We're open to adding more currencies in the future, but every currency we add first has to go through a lengthy process of evaluation. For example, in the case of Namecoin, we found a serious bug in the protocol during our evaluation process:
http://www.coindesk.com/namecoin-flaw-patch-needed/

The bug was of course fixed before we allowed trading in Namecoin on our exchange. This evaluation process takes valuable time away from other important development projects, and at the present time we can't spare the resources needed to add a new currency.

Regards,

From the tone of this response, it's going to take dozens or maybe hundreds of people contacting Kraken to make a difference.

There was a great Potential Monero Investor Executive Summary that Risto wrote or edited.  Can't find it on the MEW page.  Halp?

Those are all great links iCEBREAKER, but the one aminorex really needs is this one:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1qomqt/what_a_landmark_legal_case_from_mid1700s_scotland/

That's the first thing Adam talks about in his speech.  Might be kind of esoteric deep diving for a VC.

When will this "exploratory" meeting occur?

Jesus, Mary and Joseph, after reading that entire reddit thread it makes me want to buy more XMR.  Bitcoin is or could really be in turmoil.  To much in fighting going on coupled with known Bitcoin issues makes me believe investors and users might start to see the writing on the wall and start selling off or stop using BTC all together.  Time will tell.  Witnessing all this really affirms to me how important true privacy in a coin is.

Acquire more XMR hodl for now.

Node count in China continues to gradually grow: https://monerohash.com/nodes-distribution.html

If you live in China, please start more nodes.  Then contact your favorite Chinese exchanges and ask for Monero trading.

There's a node close to me, which sort of blows my mind.

Hopefully there will be more nearby soon. BTC38 added DASH today. Lets provide them with a good reason to add Monero too!

^ Also not all shares are created equal. A slower miner might be sending a bunch of low-diff shares, while a faster miner might be sending just a few high-diff shares. Shares per second are a useless metric, unless share difficulty is also taken into account.

Yes good point.

I used the DDU application and installed 15.7.1 clean. Now it works...

But I'm a bit confused.

I have got a notebook which GPU does about 100 h/s and it finds share by share right away.

My 6950 is shown at 320 h/s and it has only found 3 shares in 10 minutes. That's even slower than the 100 h/s notebook.

How can that be?

Both use the same claymore miner.

This may have to do with the mining pool you are connected to.  The jobs sent down are based on the processing power of your CPU and GPU and some mining pools auto adjust the Starting Difficulty based on your GPU processing ability. 

For example if you look at https://monerohash.com/#getting_started it shows different levels of Starting Difficulty and this is for connecting to the right port.  Most mining pools will auto detect and adjust the Starting Difficulty to match the processor.  So higher powered GPU's will pull down bigger chunks of data to process and they will take longer to return the unlocked block data.

It's 64 Bit which should work with claymore.

I just recognized, that catalyst is 15.8 but the drivers are still 16.2.1 ... maybe that's the problem..  or it needs even lower catalyst than 15.8

Would be nice if the developer would sometimes take an eye in his own thread.....

I think there is an official AMD un-installer app that you have to run before installing the older drivers.

So what area are you located?


Vancouver Island, Canada.  I've yet to meet someone who knows what a cryptocurrency is, other than those I've introduced.  Ya, I live in the back woods  Tongue

 I hope to add a node or three of my own... er, soon.


A Monero wizard possibly lives close to you.

Claymore doesn't work.

I tried with Catalyst 13.9 - it detected my card but it has got problems with virtual memory, so I upgraded to 16.1.2 which can't detect the GPU ... so I downgraded to 15.8 (which should work because claymore supports 14.X and 15.X) but it still can't find my card....

I'm looking for an other miner...

Not sure what is going on.  What is the make of the AMD GPU's ?  I did some firmware bios updates on my AMD cards and it helped performance a bit.  Most likely the firmware is ok but not sure why you are getting non recognition.  Is your windows 32 or 64 bit.  That might be part of the problem.

Anyone knows a miner that works with catalyst 15.8, Windows 7 and an AMD GPU?

Claymore should work but you won't get the fastest possible speeds.  I think catalyst 12.3 is the best one for AMD GPU's  I might have the exact catalyst number wrong but i know its 12. something.

Well guess what? Heard the word fungible used in a tv show yesterday.
