It IS the payment ID they are showing you. Not the address. (note the ID is 64 characters and no capital letters.)
A raw Monero address on the other hand is 95 characters long and starts with the number 4.
Good catch, I've fixed my previous message.
Why so narrow window? Tried the full width?
It shows clearly in my Chrome, payment address and payment ID.

Well, it actually pops up with a massive QR code and you have to scroll down to see anything else, so I narrowed it some and lengthened it to have it all fit in the image, but...
No, there is *no* payment address and payment ID there, no matter how wide I go. I think you are looking at a different Shapeshift feature than I am. I'm using https://app.purse.io/spend, then I buy something, and choose "Pay with Altcoins", select Monero, submit that, and it pops up the shapeshift.io/shifty.html page that you see in the image.

PURCHASE ON AMAZON.COM WITH MONERO: ShapeShift.io has partnered with Purse.io, a service that matches customers wishing to purchase bitcoin with bitcoin holders wanting to purchase items with retail giant Amazon.com. You can now make your purchases with Monero: http://bit.ly/1JTnSdP
Has anyone here actually tried this? I just posted to the ShapeShift.io thread, as it seems to not be generating a compliant Monero address to send to.

Maybe it don't work well on some devices.
This is Chrome browser on Windows. It's just a web page. It should be displaying the payment address AND the payment ID, clearly labeled. I don't see that address listed at all. Did you get the above address by scanning the QR code?

Can Trezor tackle the current requirement of an underlying 64bit architecture? To my knowledge, no cant.

I think the blockchain converters haven't been tested enough / there's still some minor bugs there. I guess the devs don't want to release it and then everyone rebuild the blockchain from the network. There are various LMDB blockchain downloads available from members of the community though, if peeps are willing to trust them.
so if you have a in-memory blockchain and want to test the blockchain export -> import or blockchain converter functions, please do!!!

Done the converter, but nothing to report there - except long runtime. It just did its job. Process took above 20 hours and is not dependant upon CPU resources, bottleneck must been elsewhere. Still beats syncing from scratch, but fails against downloading a prepared LMDB blockchain archive file.
LMDB files are system dependant and not portable so picking the wrong one could be left for the beginners as an excercise in gaining experience.
Incidentially I went through the same process this weekend but didn't dare writing a guide as I am a Linux Noob. Thanks for the write up.
It was quite an ordeal and didn't work at first. Turns out the Berkeley DB was the culprit. I eventually found the right version. Will look it up when I am back on Linux.
Ginger has uploaded a pretty recent 64-bit DB version of the blockchain
https://mega.co.nz/#!4ZtH0LQK!guHq3n9sRa0z34AgpeKiU4BJXWiaS3XszeIxUZmDc5s
Use at your own risk, it worked well for me.
Download, extract and copy the contents to ~/.bitmonero/lmdb (hidden folder)
maybe it's not perfectly correct (Linux noob)...corrections are appreciated!
briefly on ubuntu 15.04, to make a "db" bitmonerod
1) install dependencies to compile
[edit] not sure but you perhaps need libdb to
2) download code source
a bitmonero folder will be created
3) compile
move on bitmonero folder
then make
To save time, you can use parallel build. "make -j 2", "make -j 3" or more according to your cpu/ram power
then wait.
if all is ok, you can launch
4) launch
executables can be found in build/release/bin
daemon:
wallet:
5) synchronization
from scratch, leave opened bitmonerod and wait (expect several days)
or you can try try to get the "in memory" blockchain at https://downloads.getmonero.org/blockchain/linux/blockchain.bin then test the blockchain converter. (sorry, i didn't do it so i can't help you on this point)
ps: i'm not expert, i can make mistakes but it's what i have done.

If I remember correctly someone posted a 'How to' to compile and run the latest Monero + DB on Linux(Ubuntu or debian) some time ago. Can someone point me to this how to.

Question : is it possible to Dockerize (https://www.docker.com/) the deamon, the wallet and the DB ? Has someone done this yet ?
i dunno, i ask myself the same question!yeah, sorry I forgot about the berkely DB thing. In the future, if you run into any problems, check out the github issues thing - and specifically the closed issues. If you can search through that you might find issues that others have faced (like myself) which were then worked out.

Remember when the database build was going to be merged into production last January?
in b4 fluffy pony flips his shit because I pointed out the obvious
in b4 fluffy pony flips his shit because I pointed out the obvious
Nobody said it would be merged into production last January, that would be impossible as Monero only launched last April. I think you might be confusing this with some other project?
At any rate, here is where it got merged into "production" (we call github "staging") - https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero/pull/256
Yes, it is. It's intriguing to me on it's own right, but I really got into it for a specific as-of-yet-unnamed reason.

There are no tools that implement the view key. We know it does work as it is used by the back end of MyMonero. I think luigi1111 said he was working on something, maybe others too.
I guess I still don't understand. Why would Riccardo put the view key there, if it takes some specialized knowledge/setup to use it? I would rather that is not really advertised if it doesn't work and can't even be tested in at least simplewallet for instance.
I see it as more like a sign of good faith I guess. "When this is implemented in a better fashion you'll be able to see the funds we receive and have received."
Yeah, I suppose. I guess that is another perspective on it. Thanks for your work in trying to implement it. It really is a very interesting aspect of Monero.
Yes, it is. It's intriguing to me on it's own right, but I really got into it for a specific as-of-yet-unnamed reason.
