Congratulations!

I think the meaning of this Tweet is obvious:

https://twitter.com/cryptsy/status/631672049631629312

@BBRcurrency We will be listing at least one CryptoNote coin this week. 2.0 integrations in general have been slow for us. But not anymore

I asked about how they could add ETH so quickly but take so long to add CryptoNote coins. Looks like 2.0 coins will be coming to Cryptsy faster going forward


"We will be listing at least one CryptoNote coin this week" surely must mean Monero

You can thank me for sharing this good news by following my Twitter account. I am not the enemy. I like XMR and AEON in addition to BBR. Maybe BBR and AEON can be next to come to Cryptsy?

Has anyone had any luck with Ipredia?

http://www.ipredia.org/

if you use ipredia and run a node on it.... do you essentially achieve the same goal as when i2p is integrated into Monero?

It looks promising. Similar to tails right?

Has anyone gotten Monero to work in Tails? I keep seeing conflicting reports.

I haven't given it a shot due to the lack of persistence by design... don't know how I'd get a *useful* blockchain there. I guess theoretically you'd just use mymonero?

Couldn't you just starting syncing? Or are these systems designed to be completely non-persistent, meaning you would have to sync every time. That would not work.

NM, ima dumbass. tails does have an encrypted persistence option. https://tails.boum.org/doc/first_steps/persistence/configure/index.en.html

i goto sleep now.

this ipredia thing looks like you can actually install it to HD and use as a standard OS.

I just saw that DogeCoinDark created a web wallet on i2p:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12117370

Can we have MyMonero on i2p too?! I'll even host it. I run i2p on a box 24/7.

What is your favorite Operating System?

https://twitter.com/XMRpromotions/status/631234851962630144

What is your favorite operating system? I wonder what percentage of Monero users prefer some version of Linux. #xmr #security #linux

If we reply and retweet this sort of post maybe we can start attracting linux users who are not yet familiar with monero

I will start using the #privacy #security #fungibility #encryption hashtags more when appropriate. We need to broaden our audience

I also am sending personal messages to people when they favorite or retweet something in hopes they do so again

Devs, I can wait for the new tagged release.

... but the GNU/Linux nerds who compile their own executables want to keep buying cheap moneroj from those who run Microsoft Windows and use 8 month old tagged executables.  Wink

you ain't buying from this windows executable idiot Grin

One should bear in mind that the last pull request before releasing the 0.8.8.6 tagged version was #196, whereas we're currently at #365. Of course their are some open issues (e.g. -> https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero/issues/360) in between causing a pull request to skip a #, but most of it are genuine pull requests.

Yes you can build it on Linux or Windows. The memory requirements are quite small.

Importing the seed is essentially identical to copying the keys file. I think the files might be compatible between OSes, but not really sure.

Thanks. I'll let you know how it goes in a few days when this old laptop actually compiles it all hahaha! Wink

hey folks. Quick question, I have a few hundred XMR i have in a windows wallet. I can't bring bitmonerod up anymore, it kills my computer, so I need to move it to a linux laptop.

What's the best way to migrate a windows simplewallet.bin file from windows unix? delete the bin, and use the .keys file? I'm sorry, it's been a while, but I can't deal with windows anymore so I want to move it to ubuntu laptop asap. Wink

Thanks for any tips/help! Smiley

How old is the wallet? Does it have a seed?

The new daemon shouldn't kill your pc; you could try that too.

it's old, but it's 0886 on windows, i have the seed, but i'm not really into restoring from that, although I've done it before with no problem doing tests on cold storage.

I don't see any later versions than that, pre-compiled, so that's why I'm going to clone the github and build it. Wink

Any thoughts, criticisms, or suggestions?  

Your principal vulnerabilities stem from your network interface.  On your live network host:  Disable and in fact remove physically everything that opens a port except for sshd, bitmonerod.  iptables should block all but 2 essential ICMP types, your sshd tcp port, DNS udp, and bitmonerod.  You want rules to prevent fingerprinting as well.  Use a kernel from TAILS.  Physically disable bluetooth and IR.  I recommend against wifi, in favor of copper ethernet.

There are a hundred libpurples on your computer: little pieces of software written on a budget with unrealistic deadlines by people who didn’t know or didn’t care about keeping the rest of your system secure.

Fuck budgets.

Fuck deadlines.

Devs, I can wait for the new tagged release.

OOOOH MIGHTY CORE DEVS, ACCEPT MY OFFERING OF 5 NVIDIA 750 ti's, MAKING THE NETWORK 1.2 kh/s STRONGER. OHHHHHMMMMM.

If you're that paranoid you should opt for fiber optic ethernet. Wink
