How many Monero are currently in circulation?

I'm here. Constantly. Soon I will have the fork in sync with the bytecoin commits. NoodleDoodle recently published a more optimized daemon/miner for win64. Othe is working on the GUI. Pool will come as soon as people see the technological value in the coin. Like most open source projects, it will grow slowly and organically -- like Bitcoin itself. So, just chill.  The start was fair and the development behind the coin has been totally decentralized since TFT left. In the meantime, enjoy cheap MRO. |

Is there a website where I can see the value of this "coin"? What if you buy 1000 Monero for 1 BTC and the value ends up at 100 sat per Monero..
This is the value of the coin. Soon BCN and this coin will be at major exchanges, and then we'll really see things move. |

Is it even possible to mine block with only 2h/s?
Every 4 days-ish !bmrhash 2
The average blocks per day at 2.0 H/s, given difficulty of 725515, is 0.238193697792 |

I tried VirtualBox with Ubuntu 13.10 Desktop and the performance was much worse than Windows. The Ubuntu GUI was having performance problems with the VirtualBox OpenGL implementation and the virtual machine was really slow. I am back to mining in Windows now.
I'll try Ubuntu Server in VirtualBox when I get a chance later.
Yeah, unfortunately mining may take a hit. Ideally though you don't want to run a daemon/wallet to keep your coins on anything that you haven't compiled yourself, though. I think Noodle compiled the latest optimized windows binaries with merges from the bytecoin fork that are experimental, I'll have to check with him and make sure nothing weird was included like the bytecoin core config settings. |

Even though it was run with bitmonerod --p2p-bind-port 18080 It is still connecting to peers on port 8080...  Make sure whatever you're compiling from has this in /src/cryptonote_config.h #define P2P_DEFAULT_PORT 18080
#define RPC_DEFAULT_PORT 18081 To even windows users I would suggest they download VirtualBox and install Ubuntu 13.10 in a virtual machine inside windows, then compile as indicated on the front page. |

Don't bother with tacotime he has been proven to be an idiot numerous times. He stays out of the darkcoin forum with his FUD out of fear.

The public key in CryptoNote is way too long. Should we make it shorter or it is on purpose?
It reminds me of Bitcoin address. It is a hashed version of the public key. The public key is 256 bits long, and the final hash (ie. address) is 160 bits long.
I am little bit curious about CryptoNote's technical background of an address
PS: Sorry, I haven't read the code yet
The address are similar in size to those of Bitcoin stealth addresses. There is no conceivable way to shorten them that would lot lead to attacks through ECDH. I would suggest you read up on stealth addressing. |

Does anyone know if there is any problem in having multiple computers mining off the same cloned wallet?
Is there a better/more efficient way to mine to a central wallet?
Cheers
yes, just open the daemon and "start_mining [youraddress] [#threads]". no need to use the wallet, just need an address for the coinbase. |

Do I place the binaries in c:\ instead of c:\bytecoin? This is totally new for me You can put them in any folder really, as long as you can navigate there with cd and dir |

Another coin launched without pools. Instamining. Don't launch a coin if u don't have the basics, is it hard to understand ? No, but u prefer instamining in the dark.
Don't make a fork if it's as bad as the original.
It's already impossible to solo mine. Cpu coins are botnets cra*p. Decentralized money my as*
Nuff said
I'm mining with 2 CPUs and got 4 blocks yesterday... If you want a pile of it, buy some, it's really cheap. |

^^ The other thing I should note is that this is pretty much alpha-level software and seems to break a lot. For instance, I broke the network the first day or so making a large transaction because the mining code was messed up. So don't be surprised if something weird occasionally happens (backup your wallets all the time, please).

My honest opinion of egalitarianism right now is that it exists in all platforms in some way, be it ASIC, GPU, or CPU. For instance, with ASICs from Bitmain pretty much anyone can hop onto the Bitcoin network and build a massive mine. I just got the most requests from people with GPU mining farms, so I've opted for some kind of initially GPU minable algorithm.
Mining itself is simply a "proof-of-burn" mechanism that trades power for competitive distribution, whichever way you want to do it through.

i would like to propose a conspiracy theory here. could it be that TFT and friends created a problem where there was non, as they see the coin going up in popularity and thus limit ability for people to mine or participate.
1. yes mining continued: is this true can a non techy very this
2. increased frustration: people may hold of mining while a better wallet is in place. thus decreasing difficulty and increasing coin accumulation of those in the know.
3. a day later and still unable to access wallet from first page. people are pointed to github but I do not see a link there that says updated wallet. click here and your parse problems will be solved.
4. i recall i could not participate early because link was botched. there was no note underneath to clarify this for those new to cryptocurrencies. for 5 days I could not mine while tft and friends went about it merrily.
would tft go to such an extreme.... just speculating.
Doesn't really matter now, community is maintaining the current repo. I guess people can break it again in the future, whatever, we'll fix it. |

Questions
1. So is it possible to build the miner only then point it at a centralized wallet? ie a one man pool?
Yes, you need to send request to JSON RPC and do "getblocktemplate", then mine on the blob that it dumps to you. 2. Is there a centralized place to post hash specs? https://wiki.bytecoin.org/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison |

Did we loose the boost 1.53 compatibility ? After a git pull I can't compile any more on Ubuntu 14.04 ! CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:1131 (message):
Unable to find the requested Boost libraries.
Boost version: 1.53.0
Boost include path: /usr/include
Could not find the following Boost libraries:
boost_atomic
Some (but not all) of the required Boost libraries were found. You may
need to install these additional Boost libraries. Alternatively, set
BOOST_LIBRARYDIR to the directory containing Boost libraries or BOOST_ROOT
to the location of Boost.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
CMakeLists.txt:76 (find_package)
If you're using the community github repo (monero-project), I updated that file the other day to support mac; however, I didn't modify any lines relating to boost and it compiles over here on 13.10 OK. So, try cloning the community repo instead. |

Very nice! Built fine under MacOS X for me, and once I copied over my Linux blockchain.bin and wallet, it runs merrily away. Much nicer than running Linux in VirtualBox, but surprised that is hashing at almost the same rate... Not working in my MacPro Scanning dependencies of target upnpc-static
