FWIW, I checked my client just now and the number of connections seem healthy.

My client is reporting 90 connections, fwiw.

Cheers

Graham

90!? I have 8 connections.
What kind of setup do you have?

You probably won't have more than 8 connections unless you have incoming connections unblocked by all firewalls/NAT.

What happened to anonymint (aka TPTB_need_war), where did he go?
He knows too much. The silence him Lips sealed

He had health problems, hope he is still alive, he was a good dude, very informed about many topics.

He's still alive. Most of his accounts on this forum have gotten banned.

Update on rebase bounty

I have received one submission of (claimed) working code for the rebase bounty. I'm evaluating and testing it and expect to be opening it up to wider community review and input shortly.

Regular laptop for Pool its ok, only check the temperatures, although AEON it's more friendly than other POW algo, now need a lot of ram (8gb) for use the simplewallet (the blockchain need a rebase).

It is possible to use simplewallet with a public node. Also pruning branch needs less than 8 GB I believe.

contains facilities that automatically deposit Monero to a wallet associated with North Korea’s Kim Il Sung University.

The first instance I have seen of the exploitation of the vulnerability that sub-addresses is intended to fix. We can't get sub addresses soon enough.

A good question would be how they determined that the wallet was 'associated with North Korea’s Kim Il Sung University' in the first place.

The first link however is interesting. I wasn't aware of that. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

Meh, I told them RPC was an attack vector years ago and my statements were ignored and then I was told not to worry about it as 0mq was coming to the rescue. I also tried to vet 0MQ but did not get cooperation in my attempts so gave up. Hopefully it was professionally vetted but my questions on the subject were never answered. I just got trolled about using the term wrapper for the interface and got sick of trying. Also I was making an argument for this, which I am glad was the end result.

Quote
In addition, the official Monero GUI doesn't use the RPC layer, and directly implements the libwallet_api for all its wallet functions.





I recall those events. In the end its hard to separate the willing from the trolls at points.

And, I think, the team have largely moved off to their own  forum. Just us stubborn guys still here echoing.

There isn't really a forum any more* mostly just reddit, twitter, IRC, and github (issues and PRs) for technical discussion. And still here of course. Thanks for the shout out @Hueristic.

* It is still used for FFS but nothing else.

Bitshares is a blockchain that has on-chain exchange features. It isn't "controlled by four centralized entities" specifically, though it is proof of stake which means very large stakeholders control the chain and I have no idea how many of those there are.

Moving on to openledger. In order to trade any non-native assets (non-native being any coin other than BTS itself, on-chain derivatives such as BitUSD/BitCNY/etc., or tokens issued on the Bitshares chain) you need a custodian to hold the deposits. The custodian then issues tokens which act as on-chain placeholders for the deposits (e.g. OPEN.BTC, OPEN.USD, etc. in the case of openledger). In order to deposit or withdraw the placeholder tokens you need satisfy the KYC, etc. requirements of the custodian (openledger) in a similar manner as you would a regular exchange, although you don't need to satisfy their requirements in order to trade the tokens, since that happens on the blockchain itself.

I don't know anything about Banx, nor do I know anything about the KYC requirements of openledger.

Good info, thx. I think Banx locked onto the bitshares project and tainted it by association. I'd like to learn more acout how they exchange for fiat. The bolded is important.

Unfortunately "FIAT deposits and withdrawals are temporarily disabled. Sorry for inconvenience"

That post is from last year. This issue has long since been addressed, and only applied to people running RPC wallets (generally exchanges, etc.) and even then only in an insecure setting (no isolated VM/container, same system as a browser, etc.)

Also this was not any sort of "encryption" or cryptography bug, and arguably not a bug at all. If you tell the wallet to open up a port to listen for commands (is not, and never was the default behavior), then you better secure access to the port.

How to capitalize on the arbatrage between korean exchanges? We could all go there and have a party.

I was wondering the same thing. Sell high, move to tether and wait for a crash to buy low and get out of the exchange but with the premiums I think you would still be over paying unless there was a crash of 40%

QFT, do we have a list around for XMR/USD pairs? Is there any exchange you can withdraw XMR in USD for US residents?

I think you can withdraw from openledger the decentralized bitshares exchange. I don't know how long verification takes though

OK, so I thought Bitshares and Banx were a scam but it looks like they are seperate? All I can fins is Bitshares exchange is controlled by 4 centralized entities, is this true? Where do I find out the truth about Openledger? I guess I could be our guinea pig if coinbase lets me withdraw btc. Smiley

@smooth. What are the updates on the code rebase?

I've heard from one developer who claims to have made some progress and will be releasing some code soon, but talk is always cheap, it is the actual code release that counts. So we'll see.

PS: i already updated aeon wallet to latest version.

Perfectly normal. Your node found another node with a bad blockchain and rejected it.

i am curious  , is there anyone who have the same trouble as me (You seem to be missing the last word in your private key, please try again ) and has solved it?

i am reading and trying for days now and i know more people had this issue

If you truly are missing the LAST word you can brute force the last in 24 tries or less.  Copy each word in the key to the end.  In other words if this were your 24 words:

organs mumble pliers eden value cause girth gossip unopened soccer juicy apology azure video daytime siblings safety drinks framed casket error buying airport axis

Then first try:
organs mumble pliers eden value cause girth gossip unopened soccer juicy apology azure video daytime siblings safety drinks framed casket error buying airport axis organs

Then:
organs mumble pliers eden value cause girth gossip unopened soccer juicy apology azure video daytime siblings safety drinks framed casket error buying airport axis mumble

Eventually it will work.  If not, then it is not the last word missing... but I think that error message is likely accurate.
Why do you say that the last word has to be a repeat of one of the earlier words?  The Monero word list is 1626 words long.  The last word is a checksum, and as such it could be any word from the list.  Did I miss something?
By the way, if the missing word is the final one, that implies that you can, at least theoretically, work backward from the mnemonic to derive the private key it's based on (you don't need to know the checksum).

Yeah the checksum was implemented in an odd way (I don't know why) and has to be one of the other words.

Agree that in theory you don't need the checksum at all.

ZEC also up about 50% so clearly something driving money into the privacy coins.

I'm waiting for 4 days to get the coins on Bittrex. I sent 2,000, at a time, the transaction is divided into parts and only one part, exactly 153, came to the exchange.
I tried to delete p2pstate.bin and poolstate.bin but there was no money in the wallet, and on Bittrex too.

Try restoring the wallet by deleting (moving) the wallet cache file (the file without any file extension, not the .keys file!).

If you have tons of outputs with tiny amounts (you can check this by "incoming_transfers available"), you won't be able to send a huge sum at once.

Good advice. Also don't use mix <2 unless you can't avoid it (sometimes mix 0 is necessary for small unmixable bits of coins from solo mining for example). If you must use mix 0, also consider --fee-multipler. Check a chain explorer such as https://minergate.com/blockchain/aeon/blocks . See what recent mix 0 transactions are using and you will need to be competitive or your transaction will not get mined. Yesterday that required >10. Today 1-2 looks okay.

Lost my RAID with blockchains recently.

Tried to send trans via public node - trans disappeared.
Tried to run local daemon - stuck at block 1000.

WTF guys?
WTF?Huh??

Fixed in master. You can pull HEAD from master or patch your own. Discussed here:

Hi there,

I'm putting together an evaluation matrix of all notable Anonymous/Private cryptocurrencies, and could use your help clarifyiing Monero.    Feedback including reference to something official (website, whitepaper etc) or Dev comments (or devs themselves) would be very much appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi

The table does not reflect Bytecoin accurately, other than the fact it was the first Cryptonote which Monero forked from. Transaction privacy is protected by secure cryptographic algorithms. whereby no one can identify who sent the money, who the receiver was, and what amount of money was transferred. It utilises all the methods in your table: https://wiki.bytecoin.org/wiki/Main_Page

Bytecoin does not effectively obscure the amount, nor is its use of ring signatures protected against chain reaction attacks as described in the MRL papers and the 'MoneroLink' paper. The only privacy part of Bytecoin that is actually secure and effective is stealth addresses.

The issue with syncing appears to be timeout-related. I'm adding block-sync-size which addressed the issue in Monero but meanwhile if you are compiling your own and want to try a workaround you can edit the file src/cryptonote_config.h and change this:

Code:
#define BLOCKS_SYNCHRONIZING_DEFAULT_COUNT              200    //by default, blocks count in blocks downloading

to this

Code:
#define BLOCKS_SYNCHRONIZING_DEFAULT_COUNT              20    //by default, blocks count in blocks downloading

Recompile and restart.

EDIT: I see that contributor stoffu has already added --blocks-sync-size. Thanks! Not in a release yet but if you pull from master, you can try adding --block-sync-size 20 to your aeond command line.
