One last question, why does the bitcoin escrow address not have a balance next to it? I sent BTC there.
I have the same question. I send bitcoin yesterday. Transaction is confimed by bitcon network. But there is no bitcoin balance in nvo.io no zero no nothing. Why? Alcoins show just zero balance and they should because I have not made any deposit by them. But why there is no bitcoin balance?

But the problem is, that it gives just the bitcoin address not the bitcoin private key. So it does not go as the instructions tell.What is the problem? Is there some bug in the exodus?
It could be a bug. See if there is an available update to the software and try that; or contact the Exodus team. So I gues I should not send bitcoins from exodus to nvo.io before I realle can be sure that I have the private key?
Correct. Should I use Jaxx instead?
I recommend Electrum or just using counterwallet right away. I contacted exodus support. They answered in few minutes. Yes there was a bug. They had released an update. https://www.exodus.io/releases/Now it works. I can export the bitcoin private key. I guess it is now safe to participate nvo.io crowd sale from the Exodus Linux wallet? No need to use Electrum or counter wallet?

It has been nice to observe that yesterday and today when many coins have been declining xmr has declined less and occasionally has even been increasing. Usually it has been other way around. The XMR/XBT price has also been many times tested on 0.02 And now it is unwilling to go much below it. http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/monero/Hopyfully xmr will break above it. The volume of XMR is still very crappy. 10M-15M USD while other top ten coins volumes are measured in 100M USD or even 1B USD. Just try to imagine what could happen to XMR price if volume got even little closer to the volumes other coins. The number of active XMR nodes is however slighly dropped. It has been two weeks about 1100 nodes but at the moments it is 900 nodes. Is there any chart of historical number of active nodes? Is there news when getmonero.org site will be shined. It is under work I guess. And what about Jaxx and Exodus wallets. Are they going to integrade XMR also? And when? Exodus at least is talking about anonymity and privacy in their video. Starting at 0:41. https://vimeo.com/173977060It would be great if XBT 1 august hassle would make some investors to find XMR as a safe coin.

Is the personal bitcoin address which I has sumbit in the nvo.io the same address I have in my jaxx wallet?
That question might feel a little stupid, but I want to be sure. So. I have a jaxx wallet. There is a bitcoin address and its private key. So can I just copy the address from there and submit it to the nvo.io as a personal bitcoin address? And also can I sent bitcoins from that jaxx wallets very same bitcoin address to the nvo.io crowdsale? Another question. There are two bitcoin addresses in jaxx wallet. For some reason. What if I submit one of those address to the nvo.io as a personal bitcoin address and sent the bitcoin from another bitcoin address in the jaxx wallet. Is there any promblem? I guess no. I hold the private keys of both of those addresses in the jaxx wallet. I just want know that I have understood right.

These are the news we want to see. And the best is, that these are made possible by the development of the xmr code not by marketing of the xmr. But. It is not a reason to not market xmr. Times have shifted since the times of 2009. Then there was just XBT. Now there are hundreds of coins. By marketing we ensure that as least as possible opportunities of xmr are wasted. There I guess is no any other coin with competitive tech with xmr. But who knows what will happen in the future. It would wonderful if xmr was adopted by https://nvo.io/https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1917456.0If there had been more marketing of xmr it propably would allready have been adopted. What you guys anyway think about nvo? At least at the first sight it look great.

Many shitcoins take over xmr one after another just because they are marketed well. Due to lack of proper PR, marketing, official site and so on, people do not really know what xmr, privacy and fungibility are. Once these are fixed, the price will start increase. Even without and before any significant update to xmr code.
So lets go on.
Let the XMR team do the code and we rest may do the marketing. Twice a month at least youtube video. Blogs and posts to the reddit and other such sites. Invent by yourself.
To me this argument is really starting to resemble "When will we get a GUI wallet?" 2.0 Well just think about those shitcoins. They have nothing fuctionality. They have just stunning sites and great marketing. And that is enough for many people. They invest.

Monero seems to be still for long-term but Many altcoins are growing up so high such as DASH, ETH ,WAVE during the past. Perhaps many investors can see many new features of these coins and their potentials more than monero.
... Beeing fungible money or cash is a strong application and a great feature already, look at the BTC price.
Fungibility is a critical requirement for money; however Bitcoin's problem is far more basic. Before one can concern oneself whether a transaction can be traced destroying fungibility one has to be able to make the transaction in the first place. Monero has a solution for this far more basic problem also. Many shitcoins take over xmr one after another just because they are marketed well. Due to lack of proper PR, marketing, official site and so on, people do not really know what xmr, privacy and fungibility are. Once these are fixed, the price will start increase. Even without and before any significant update to xmr code. So lets go on. Let the XMR team do the code and we rest may do the marketing. Twice a month at least youtube video.

I am mostly using monero-cli. But a question about safety of mymonero.com.
If I log in to mymonero.com from a linux computer which does not have any keylogger, which are the ways and probabilities that someone may steal xmr?
What are your safety recommedations when using mymonero.com?
It is reasonably safe as all keyrelated functions only run locally. But there is always a chance of mim attacks and other vulnerabilities you might have been, or will be ,exposed to. So unless you are very diligent on making sure you are not compromised : only for a small amount is the general recommendation. Like what you would lose if you lost your wallet. Your mileage may of course vary on what that may be (;-) The mim, the man in the middle attack is I guess not likely if my computer is not compromised? So if I restart my linux computer by live dvd there cannot be any malware keylogger or such. And that way the man in the middle attack is not really likely?

Connection through mobile phone is fast, at least download. But I do not know about upload speeds. Do mobile connections have some other features which make them unfit for sync wallets?

supposedly this helps: ./monerod --out-peers 1 --p2p-bind-ip 127.0.0.1 --db-sync-mode fast:async:1000
Tried this. Seems to be even slower. I am using linux ubuntu on laptop with ssd. Sync could take like 3 days. That is the estimation. Laptop has not been on all the time. The blocks from 0 to 1,200,000 synced in about 10 hours. But the last 100,000 are very slow.
Any ideas how to speed up the sync?
Is your system relatively old? Also, is your bandwith somehow limited? Usually it shouldn't take this long on a decent system with an SSD. About three years. SSD is brand new. Internet connection is through Mobile phone. I should use fixed cable internet connection?

Few more questions about slow sync.
What the core team has said this about issue? What are they doing for it? What they will do for it? On how high is it on their priority list? What do we need to sync faster? Switch from laptop to Desktop machines? What kind of?
Exchanges sometimes cancel temporarily some coin services for few hours, including monero, for resync the blockchain. How can they do it so fast, in few hours, while we are doing it for many days?

I have not experienced any problems with poloniex since I have not recently done any withdraw.
Anyway now it looks like Poloniex has temporarily disabled NEM deposits and withdrawals. It is written on the balances, deposits & withdrawals site, not on alerts & notices site. No reasons are given. Has anyone else experienced this?

When I start online Ethereum wallet it starts synchronizing from the beginning of the blockchain. What is the way to save already done synchronization?
Ok. That is solved. The wallet saves the blockchain when it has synchronized to the last block. If the wallet it shut down before it, at next start the synch starts from the first block. I guess.
