jwinterm > I tried a fresh debian 7 yesterday in a VM. I swtiched to sid and got the same problem. I tried to do a complete system upgrade and that broke the Xfce session manager. Can't figure out if it is related to VM or a bad package.
yea, I really screwed up gdm/gnome3...probably just start over with fresh VM. Have you tested on Ubuntu yet? Maybe I'll see if 14.04 is any better... |

Cool! Great to see a stealth address implementation in a easy to use GUI.
Yep, can't wait until they roll out some compiled MON wallets for wider testing (I think it's alpha still now, so hopefully we'll see some for beta). |

ok another newb question, I run bitmonroed app to get the blockchain updated, run the simplewallet, and mine. After the blockchain said it was updated, I came back a while later to see the block chain window was all red text, so I stopped it, but it started from 5 days back again. Any suggestions? Also do I have to keep both the walllet and the blockchain window running while im mining?
If you're mining with cpuminer on a pool, then no, you don't need to keep wallet and bitmonerod running (just remember to save both of them before exiting, or it might take quite a while to load when you open them again). Also, the wall of red text is OK, just some p2p messages, shouldn't affect anything. |

Regarding anonymity, I would like someone to define the term to me.
Is it to make the addresses in a transaction invisible or prove that all addresses come from the same wallet/coin holder?
I don't think you're a scammer, but I also don't see a workable plan for anonymity here. What do you have in mind for it? The CRYPT original whitepaper provide no advantage, so I assume you're working on a new plan. What is it? I left the part where I ask how each individual defines anonymity. What is your definition of it? Cryptonote coins seem to have a functional implementation of anonymity, so why not use that as the baseline? I agree the coin mixer idea is kind of antithetical to crypto in general, as you are relying on some kind of centralized node to "mix" the coins for anonymity, and there seems to be some dispute over whether this is truly anonymous or can be tracked using taint analysis. But, these concerns are not manifested in cryptonote coins, and transactions can be sent over the network with varying degrees of anonymity (the mixin count). I agree with you on every word you say. It seems to have a working anonymity but I do not know exactly how it works and I don't claim I'm in a position (or even have the skills) to audit it without first studying a lot. Also, I do believe that it's still very new and we might see flaws. If I'm not ready to study it, how would I be able to fix flaws? I do not like to experiment with thinks I do not fully understand. Is it better if I did otherwise and take risks I couldn't be able to handle? It was just a suggestion, dude. I don't even hold any CRYPT. I don't care if you ever try anything or just dump all your coins (which is kinda what I'm assuming and also why I don't hold any anymore...). Funny that you assume that I have crypt coins (I do not) and even funnier how you don't return me the courtesy of an on-topic reply, as I did to your question. funny... fucking hilarious. good thing you're supposed to be dev and not customer relations. |

Maybe one one day these guys will get closer to understand the true meaning of "The Truth Shall Set You Free". Hint: lying is a sin and who sins becomes slave to sin because it's so tempting, you need to break the habit  lol, so the only thing that can save alpha-tech is jesus? |

i need binary for windows, it is possible?
it's certainly possible...but I don't think it's available at the moment |

...
This seems to be a platform-dependent problem. I will try on my Wheezy VM tonight and compile some binaries and/or instructions for this specific platform
OK, well, just noticed that when I shutdown, the dialog for shutting down also had the same kind of messed up box font...and when I restarted VM it seems like I totally killed gnome3 desktop  So, I think I must have screwed something up with my reckless apt-getting, but would be glad if you or some others could test it out on debian too. |

Hi neozaru, Trying to build your bitmonero-qt app on debian wheezy, and I'm getting an error during make: Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: quick qml
make: *** [sub-app-make_first-ordered] Error 3
I also tried: and apt-get install qml-module-qt*
but still getting the same error during make. Any ideas? Try : apt-get install qtdeclarative5-dev
The ubuntu-sdk may also work in Ubuntu (?) I it doesn't work, I will try on an empty VM. What is your distribution ? OK, I'm on a different computer, but they are both Debian Wheezy with sources set to testing (is that Sid?). Anyway, I was able to make after installing the stuff recommended in the git Readme and adding "apt-get install qtdeclarative5-dev"...however, I've run into a new problem now: the program crashes on launch. Here is the output from the first time I tried to run (after moving bitmonerod and simplewallet executables to bitmonero-qt/app folder): http://pastebin.com/kb3s7A78So, I did "apt-get install libqt5declarative5" got the same error, then tried "apt-get install qtquick1*" which installed another 300 MB of stuff, but this time made some improvement. I'm able to launch the program now, still having some issues with fonts though. Here is the output from the console on launch: http://pastebin.com/xvQ5VZd8Seemed OK on launch, however when I got to the import wallet wizard, I see this:  I'm guessing it's related to this portion of the console output: Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-droid-sans-fonts.conf", line 103: Having multiple values in <test> isn't supported and may not work as expected
Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-droid-sans-fonts.conf", line 138: Having multiple values in <test> isn't supported and may not work as expected
Not sure what to do about it tho... |

lolwut, it's got basically no unique features, an absentee dev, and little to no community...what would say a fair value is? |

Hold fast guys. We will be fine. I'm not going anywhere, and neither are the bigger whales. This coin is going places.
Me and whales are already out and profits made. You can still buy that one real anon coin out there pretty cheap if you act quick enough. RRRiiiggghhhtttt. XC bag holder. That's why we are heading back to 200k. I think he was probably talking about monero or another cryptonote coin, since those are "real anon", unlike this "non anon" coin, and "pseudo anon" coins like drk... |

I moved the 2 of the seed nodes over to digital ocean. Works out cheaper than aws. So I'll be able to host them for a much longer time now. Thanks again for that donation jwinterm! Our hashrate has been declining slowly. Something I've been considering is merge-mining. I want some input on this. Neuromode is a member of the Myriadcoin community (a coin I really like due its multi-algo approach). And he is a part of The Cypherfunks. They have a merge-mined multipool on its way. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1R78lUtwnVB9o0CZpYnxWDSyZP-adgfcN4yfu1PM8jzQ/editSo I've thought about including FUNK in that setup. We hard-fork so that we can accept merge-mined scrypt blocks and then officially become a part of the myriad merge-mined multipool. Another consideration I want to add is that merge-mined blocks have smaller rewards. 75% of the total. This means merge-mined blocks (if possible, have to make sure), only give 75% of the reward. This means we can improve security of the chain from merge-mining AS well as give incentives for FUNK miners who specifically want to mine only FUNK. Thoughts? Would that make the FUNK dependent on the existence of Myriadcoin? I don't think so, I think once if we fork it will just be merge-mineable with any scrypt coin. I'm not seeing the bit about only 75% reward for merge-miners though, so I'm not to sure tbh... |

jwinterm > Tried your Wallet and it works fine Some remarks or improvements : - All controls (launch daemon) are manuals. Maybe an option to launch it automatically could be good. - Daemon/Simplewallet windows are visible. Useful for debugging but some users don't want to see them. - What are these red circles when I click ?  - It's a good idea to ask user confirmation before sending funds - Daemon and Wallet info retrieval (balance, blocks) works fine - Wallet creation works fine too. - You should scan some standard directories ($HOME ?) for listing available wallets instead of only the local one. - Subprocesses are not stopped when closing the main Window, but the main window itself doesn't seem to close the Python program. - Good overall ergonomy despite allthing is "manual". But after all, GUI Wallets are for experienced users only at this stage  - Worked without pain on my (Arch) Linux (thank you Python and Kivy) thanks neozaru, It should actually show a popup when you click the transfer button, asking you to confirm, then another showing tx id. It took me a while to figure out the popup with two buttons. I know it's not always closing all the subprocesses everytime you exit, but it does seem to work sometimes, I've been having trouble figuring that out. I think I'm going to abandon the multiprocessing module all together in favor of threads/threading (as apparently android doesn't support multiprocessing and it's making exe creation more difficult), so that will give me a chance to review it. Honestly not sure about the red circles, but thanks for testing and suggestions! I'm gonna try and build your qt-wallet on debian today |

Hola Moneritos I just wanted to post an update on my own GUI wallet, which I would still consider to be in the alpha stage. The wallet can send payments with a payment ID, and also launch bitmonerod, simplewallet, and minerd, but there is as yet no transaction history, which is a pretty key feature of any wallet. I'm not seeking a bounty, more to try and improve my python/coding skills, and hopefully get some feedback on the code, which is located here: https://github.com/jwinterm/cryptonoteRPCwalletGUIThere currently aren't any binaries, so if you'd like to run it, you will need python, kivy, and pygame on your computer. I've tested it on on Windows 7 and 8.1 and Debian, and it seems to be running OK. I think it should work on mac as well but I haven't tested it. Here are a few screenshots of the first two tabs/pages in the wallet:  First tab showing some stats from the last block mined.  Wallet launcher and balance tab. Any feedback on the code or layout is much appreciated. |

Can I has a tip being a senior member? CN2HxVvuWrm6bGqZUQTUicsPCs9J4iw4ay Thank you 1000 TALK sent for being so senior and interested in coin |
|
|

I've seen that the dev has abandoned us apparently, are there any plans of new management?
I'm planning to try and implement some kind of a tipping wallet, that will allow you to tip people by username on here, but it will probably be a couple weeks before I'm ready to release anything... |
