What version are you running (git commit hash) ?
Modified or not (I don't see a hash with "b566" in my tree) ?
That "Starting..." message is only in the blockchain conversion utilities on my tree (master from yesterday), which seems odd.


Its the newest clone from the master branch and compiled with build-debug option.

Now, this is hilarious. I had this... can't be that... moment...

But it is. You are using the original bitmonero fork from TFT Cheesy

You want https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero

ok i compiled the master from the link and got the following error

Could we get a message from the devs whether they assess that it is currently safe to transact if privacy is of importance or wait until the hardfork(s)?

About as safe as a piece of string is long, I'd say.

Now, if you have a more precise question, a more precise answer might be found.

in that site there is the bin file
i have compiled the last version of monero
that use the lmdb database
and the converter dont work
at the end of conversion
the generated file was clobbered
and bitmonerod download blockchain from 0

According to this Monero isnt going to be listed. At least at the start.

His reasoning can be found below. Perhaps one of the XMR core devs can inquire further and find a solution:

"The issue with cryptonote coins is that the server must run a node anonymously. Bitcoin based altcoins can be run over tor, monero etc cannot. This increases the risk of demasking."

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11646812

Run your node inside whonix or another torified VM

https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/31ciuf/questions_running_monero_over_whonix/

If you don't have the technical expertise to set this up, I'd question whether you should be running a "dark" exchange at all..
Yo, thanks for the link. I asked in IRC #monero-dev and nobody really had any experience doing it. I had tried to force it to run via torify and it was giving exceptions that i pasted there. I will try to fuck around with it a bit more when i have time and see what happens.

Try again during daytime (talking about GMT - GMT+2 timezone here), most devs are online during that time, so I think you'll get a better answer then.

If you run your Wallet over TOR you should not experience heavy problems. Maybe some exits can not connect to peers, but they change -circuits- by default every 10 minutes. Everything in TCP can be tunneld trough TOR, UDP only DNS queries.

If you run a miner over TOR, i think the frequent latency change due to the exit change will give you some troubles. I do not run a miner over TOR, but i can setup one  Grin

i have compiled monero for windows
the problem is that
I stand for 2 days and I came only to 170 thousand
How long does it take to download all blockchain?
I do not seem normal

You should download the blockchain separately.

I just tried running vanilla bitmonerod with torsocks and I can sync fine. I'm getting failed connections after syncing though, but this is encouraging as I think most/all of the net code goes through the same lib (epee).

I might have a go at seeing what's going wrong depending on time available.

From reddit:

Monero Proof for your timestamping needs
Quote
Sorry I posted this a couple of times in the past hour, the first time I accidentally deleted it, and then it used the suggested title which I didn't want. In any case, if you need to hash and timestamp a file on the monero blockchain you can use:
https://github.com/ShenNoether/MiniNero/blob/master/MoneroProof.py

Note that I have only tested this on a few files I needed to hash, example file hash sent:
http://chainradar.com/xmr/transaction/8d3cd06528f92194a8f296ef6e08c5a820c3fef0a525b4d46752d58295b7503e

So I wouldn't send more than the trace amount needed for hashing to these address it generates.

For those interested in running bitmonerod on a Raspberry Pi 2, it seems to work now with LMDB.

I don't know why, all I did was sudo apt-get update && upgrade after a period of not using the rpi.

Sync time is still slow, but it seems faster than BDB.

When I tried with LMDB approx two months ago, sync time was >10 days. (I shut down my RPi2 after 10 days.)

Has the ARM code base been updated, so that things are faster now?


I think I spoke too soon because the daemon froze at block 345, now I seem to be having input/output problems with the SD card. Going to try it later with the blockchain stored on a USB drive.

Mine also gets stuck at 345. Setting log level to 1 shows that block f75483b9941492ed9b4e23a90143da59002647232310230b17baeebe4f97c3d5, which happens to be block #346 (http://moneroblocks.eu/block/f75483b9941492ed9b4e23a90143da59002647232310230b17baeebe4f97c3d5), is being recognized as orphan and is rejected.

On the other hand, trying to use an up-to-date data.mdb from my Linux Intel 64 bit build, results in the following error:
Code:
Failed to open lmdb environment: Value too large for defined data type

LMDB still won't work because the LMDB design requires 64 bit. There is an experimental branch of LMDB called VL32 but that is likely never going to be a great option because the developer says "I am philosophically opposed to supporting 32 bit architectures in LMDB." and "Due to the added system calls involved, it is significantly slower" and "Fundamentally, supporting this feature in LMDB is the wrong thing to do." Quotes from http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-technical/201501/msg00127.html

At this point the best approach for 32 bit embedded is going to be BDB, although in the future there might be an even better option (BDB has some issues, but at least the implementation exists). On RPi2 it serves as a nice (successful!) functional test is still likely too slow to ever actually use. Some work has been done to optimize it, mostly by NoodleDoodle.

Physical Monero coins
We have just updated cryptonic.net. The next step is to start promoting it in Bitcoin world as we have produced some physical Bitcoins as well and accordingly to increase the exposure of Monero.

You should make a thread at the marketplace/goods section and on reddit.com/r/bitcoin.

Also in the image below (if it's still the same):



You should change "create monero address" to "create a Monero address" or "create Monero addresses".

And try to write monero as Monero everywhere, it seems that everywhere on the site it's written with a capital M so it just looks more professional and consistent.

Thank you. You are right. We will fix it soon and will create the threads.

Correct me if I am wrong. Do you sell real silver coins for Monero & Bitcoin? If so it is not easily understood from your site. You should just write "We do sell real silver (or gold?) pieces of metall for Monero & Bitcoin".

Yes. We do sell real .999 Fine Silver Monero coins. It's clear on the order page but thanks for your feedback. We will think how to make it even more clear.
