That's a 2 year old post you're referencing, kurious.

Monero Core (0.9.4) has come a long way since then and I find the CLI very stable on OSX to be honest. I'm running it on El Capitan. No bugs. The only time I have problems is when I upgrade boost and need to resync my wallet cache but the average person isn't doing that. You should be able to download the binaries and get started right away.

If you're up to trying it again I'd be happy to answer any questions

70k btc  24h volume.  Is that a first, or did it happen during my nap, as well?

Simple question and yes, I have looked around.

Can I make a paper wallet (generated offline) and then recover it using MyMonero?  Or just use the spend keys without a wallet?

I am on Mac and cannot use simple wallet, bitmonerod etc - I can't do terminal / command line stuff either.

I have tested sending a couple of XMR to an offline paper wallet and sure - it works, but just found I have no way of getting it back.  I have all keys - but need to make a wallet to recover to - and I just can't.  

Pointers appreciated as I really need to get my XMR offline and safe in as cold a storage method as poss.  Apologies for being an idiot - but I cannot code and have never owned a PC...

Don't laugh and I know I shoudl look elsewhere, but I have spent hours and cannot find a simple solution (for me).

You can use this guide to securely generate an offline cold paper wallet:

Note that this guide is based on the guide magico linked (which was created by Fluffypony), but with a bit more explanation, videos, and screenshots of all the steps.

And yes, you can recover it using MyMonero. However, it will cost you a 10 XMR import fee.

Thanks but I've I tried it and I can't use command line or simple wallet on a mac - it's way too complicated and buggy.

Not just me, either!

EDIT: I will wait for the GUI I guess - but for anyone on Mac, it's Mymonero or nothing!  I know... 'Soon™'  Wink

Can you sit back and wait just a little longer for SoonTM?  GUI should ease your way, though I managed to figure out the CLI, despite my general lack of compooter experience.  Just dive in. there's lots of help here when you get stuck.

Sold all my XMR @ .0121 avg, 572btc worth. Will buy it all back at .005 Smiley

The fact that you could do that now (572 btc sells) without tripping the market on its face is awesome.

Yeah, there was not even that amount on the whole buy side for ages.

 Funny to see all the big talking trolls out, but next to no shorts on the books  Tongue
Still riding some short loans above 0.5% from way back.  Someone not attending events?  Or just sweating with fingers crossed for... what?

Has any nonBTC-USD pair ever seen volume > BTC-USD any given day ? (Ripple, LTC, DOGE,ETH only probables I suppose)? Will be nice to see it for XMR  Cool

Edit: Also seems to stabilize around .015 for now before the next legs. Get in or post about how you sold off to make a mockery of yourself in public eye (away from the wife)

I think you might be even in better position than me (I assume my average buying price is somewhere around 0.002-0.003 btc), and I do not have any excess amounts of Moneros but enough to become very wealthy if this boy starts a rock'n'roll (in my opinion it  hasn't even started yet).
to be fully honest, my average is lower than you but my stash is tinier too!
i'm not in the 10k range, only on the few k range (i don't complain, i'm happy with it)
and it's easier to lowerer your average buy on smaller amount

Sorry, if your average is below .002  it's gonna be somewhat difficult to lower it now, no matter how small the stash.  Assuming you want to grow it, and not shrink it.

The XMR volume on polo is currently 50K....that is (by my rough calculation) about three times more than the sum of the volume of all the other coins combined.



I had to duck out for a few hours sleep, but now 24h volume has topped 68k btc.  Wild.

I do believe we will see a dumb at some point.

Agreed.  And the dumbers will dumb it down about 30%.  Then the markets will wise up.

I give it 50/50 that the next level is higher or lower.  If higher 0.0175 area.  If lower, a jagged 30% down, and back to a support around ,012 again.  A few hours to base then.

0175 is $10 and likely to be psychological resistance.

Damn!  I go to bed with price sitting at $5.25 US and wake up to $8.75   Awesome!  What the hell happened in the Asian and European markets over night?   Hope this keeps climbing.  Woot!    Off to a Birthday part for now will be watching through the day.  I hope we can top $10 today.
