at least in the past we have seen several social and technical attacks coming out of the bytecoin/CN corner. i cant see why that should have changed, especially regarding bytecoins ongoing pump effort too. maybe today it is all mixed up and dash joined the fight, its really hard to say. but in the end its also not that important since xmr core community seems, like the software one day, to be antifragile too Smiley

In the absence of knowing for sure the best thing to do is just assume/pretend it's Dash even if it's some other party. That really pisses off aforementioned other party.

if monero really takes off we will see much darker markets/projects than the pedophile crowdfunding one dash is experiencing right now. i was woundering why they didnt choose xmr in the first place, since its better to mine with normal computers, if the story is true at all in the first place..

just be prepared for that, the real scum will come and we wont be able to do anything about it. if monero stays as untraceable as it is right now, hell we will see much worser things. Monero would become the "industry standard"

Good points

Facts are more efficient than fud
wow the trolls are back in full force, or is this just the beginning?
so many monero threads, please do not open any more..


Yeah seems trolls are having a field day... and it's not like Monero is rallying hard or whatever, weird.

They have epic butthurt over Peter Todd's recent anti-Dash/pro-Monero tweets.
iCEBREAKER constantly trolls the DASH/Darkcoin thread so if you are looking for someone to blame about being overrun by trolls he's the guy you need to thank.
thanks for giving the monero community a bad name mr. iCEBREAKER.

I'd post there less frequently if Monero wasn't "constantly" being brought up and lied about ("zomg did you know petertodd might be a moranero consultant that's hella lame bc they dont even hav a gui and its a total copy of bytecoin which does hav a gui, amirite?")

"Constantly?"

I don't think that word means what you think it means.   Grin

Would you like me to start constantly trolling the Dash thread, in order to demonstrate what that would actually look like?

My belief is that they are trying to hide this and the pedo story by attacking Monero with reverse troll accounts. If we give them what they don't want, that would be best. They should have chosen another coin to use as a distraction. I would suggest a concentrated attack on the weakest position--Peter Todd's comment can't be refuted later and I'm sure he'll defend his comment if pressed. I think the pump (probably whales defending) is a nice touch to show the faithful how secure they are(n't).

Feel free to follow me.  I am a former Anoncoin believer who has given up on any hope of a Zerocoin implementation by the Anoncoin team.

I now support Monero as can be reflected in my last several Tweets. Hopefully some former ANC believers will follow me to the XMR community

Hey guys. Looking to compile the latest from github on my ubuntu machine. Anyone have build instructions?

shortly, with ubuntu 15.04

install git and all dependencies:
Code:
sudo apt-get install git gcc-4.9 cmake libunbound2 libevent-2.0-5 libgtest-dev libboost1.55-dev

then clone the github
Code:
git clone https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero.git

and compile
Code:
cd bitmonero
make
or make -j n with n=number of core to use according to your cpu

you will find bimonerod and simplewallet in build/release/bin

i don't recompile bitmonerod every week but i have been doing two days ago (commit #336)
because of the change in database format, i must re-dowloaded blockchain (i didn't try to export and reimport) and what a surprise: it was really quick!
on a 6 years old desktop, 4gB, hdd (you can't do worse), synchronizing was ok ~9 hours later. In my memory, the last time i downloaded the blockchain it was taking at least 2 days on this desktop.
so yes, the work on the blockchain is very impressive. and there is a lot of other improvement (on simplewallet by example, viewkey is amazing)

Let me just say thanks you to all contributors of the github.

Here's a less technical overview of what's been pushed to Monero. Since I'm starting, I'll just do the first history page from github, which covers about a month: https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero/commits/master

There's been more commits since this first post, so let's look at what's been merged:

Massive improvements to the blockchain handling code mean much faster syncing and verification. This was some stellar work by NoodleDoodle here. Several paths are now multithreaded. Note that the database format changed to allow faster lookups of some data, so if you were using it, you will need to export and reimport.

simplewallet's text output got changed to allow strings to be loaded from a file instead of hardcoded. It is using the Qt Linguist format, so simplewallet can be translated to any language. There are simple instructions in a README file. Either the Qt Linguist GUI can be used, or Transifex, if and when Monero uses it. Other tools aren't translated at the moment, as it's not clear the extra time is worth it.

More work was done on the blockchain export/import tools. The  importer previsouly could not resize the database on the fly as the import was going on. This is now fixed, and the importer now runs flawlessly from start to finish, managing the blockchain database size as needed.

Last, a bug causing bitmonerod to hang got fixed, and some documentation and build tweaks went in.
