MintPal @MintPalExchange  ·  1m
Congratulations to Monero (XMR) for winning this week's vote. The market will be up very soon.

What some have been waiting for. 
5542  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero - Secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency on: June 23, 2014, 05:43:55 PM
why do people expect a pump in Mintpal today ? Everyone know that XMR will be listed there soon, this event is already priced in.

I tried to say this earlier and was called an idiot twice. Wink  Save your pearls.  Some know it some don't.

I think we can possibly see upward action in the coming days with or without Mintpal...

Dear suppprt
I have lost my Wallet.bin file but I have 24 words to recover, can you help me!


1. You don't need the 24 words, you need your <wallet>.keys file.
2.  Or you can use the seed words to regen the .keys file.

Caveat:  A bug has been discovered with rebuilding from the seed.  Your coins are not lost but the balance might be off.  There is supposed to be a fix for this soon.

How to use "seed words"?
Please instructions for me!
Thank!

If you still have your .keys file you should just load simplewallet, and enter your wallet name and password.  The wallet will see all your old transactions.

if you have lost your .keys file as well as the wallet.bin then run simplewallet like this: "simplewallet --restore".  enter your wallet name and (new) password, then the software will ask for your seed words.

As I said, there may currently be a bug that causes your balance to report incorrectly after a seed restore.

I have rented an XMR miner, I am not too familiar with this coin. Am I getting a good deal?

1025 hashes per second for .0017 BTC an hour

At current prices I believe that is fairly close to breaking even,  Maybe someone smarter than me can do better math,

A bug was identified with deterministic wallets. It stems from the original ByteCoin code.

https://github.com/amjuarez/bytecoin/blob/baaa3484271e11398790bbf01ee4d7b19c68e3bb/src/wallet/wallet2.cpp#L162-L194

Basically, when you create a wallet it only bothers to scan the blockchain from the time at which your wallet was started from. However, when you restore a wallet from your deterministic seed, it does the same thing because it doesn't know your wallet was created earlier. This caused some users to think they lost their funds when restoring, however all funds are safe, the wallet just isn't scanning all the blocks it should for your funds.

We are going to deploy a fix ASAP

Thanks.  Someday when I hold my grandchildren on my knee I hope to tell them I did a very small thing to help them live in a world where freedom is still available.

You keep on doing that big thing.  And I will keep testing new features.  Wink

All the people wait for xmr add  to mintpal..But..What will happen after that ? good things ? bed things?

Depends on what you like, bed things can be good, and good things can happen in bed.
It's really not what you do, but how you do it.


Who are you? Albert Einstein?
The assessment of events does not depends on what he like. It depends on income, expenses, various costs, market conditions and other cool stuff. You will never find a guy who will be happy to know that his incomes are the way lower than costs.

You can hit some people right over the head with a joke and they are still not laughing. Wink

Of course you don't really LIKE the idea of Monero do you Jorge?  Smiley
Is it bad to keep our money where there is no way for government to see?
My opinion is irrelevant.  You should worry about what your government thinks of it.

I am very very worried about what my government thinks of it.  Which is one reason I am glad there are ways emerging to protect my financial privacy.

The indisputable sign that XMR has made it as a cryptocurrency will be the infestation of the Monero thread by digitaria Stolfinia
LOL.  Unfortunately you are probably right.
Someone called?  Grin

Now THIS is WAY more bullish than any Mintpal addition.  Of course you don't really LIKE the idea of Monero do you Jorge?  Smiley

"bubbles" aren't supposed to be predictable. The moment this "bubble watch" started and became ritualistic was a red flag.

I think it's sad that Bitcoin has fostered a community of people who actually seem to think market bubbles are a good thing.

Also, OP, the word "than" is spelled with an A.  Every time.
5552  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Coinbase is turning into some sort of anti-bitcoin Mordor on: June 22, 2014, 12:56:21 AM
Frankly, Coinbase is turning into a worst kind of fascist

It would seem that, as used, the word 'Fascism' is almost entirely meaningless. In conversation, of course, it is used even more wildly than in print. I have heard it applied to farmers, shopkeepers, Social Credit, corporal punishment, fox hunting, bullfighting, the 1922 Committee, the 1941 Committee, Kipling, Gandhi, Chiang Kai-Shek, homosexuality, Priestley's broadcasts, Youth Hostels, astrology, women, dogs and I do not know what else.  -George Orwell

The NXT forging algorithm is a complete fraud.

Hello, scammer.

Will you return one million NXTs you scammed from NXT community?

Just a million?  Drop in the bucket.

you can pay for him then?

2 questions.

1.  Why in the world would I ever pay for some con artists scam when I have no relationship to either him or those ripped off?
2. Why the hell are NXT users spamming this thread?  Begone please.

Grin We will be listed at MP next Mondat Cheesy

Is this confirmed?
Mintpal chooses most voted every monday, so it happens if XMR keeps its #1 spot in the list.

Yeah but considering the extra coding that would go into adding a CN coin...?

This is a bit of an UGH factor for seeing it added to exchanges.  However it has been rightly speculated that:

1.  Mintpal wouldn't put it up were it not (getting) ready to add it.
2.  The money votes could hire a pretty good freelancer to do the work if they don't have time themselves.

I am not personally too concerned with Mintpal one way or the other.  I do want to see more market liquidity eventually.  
5558  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero - Secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency on: June 19, 2014, 05:16:24 PM

Almost none of the failure modes of bitcoin apply to monero because the code base and algorithms and development teams are about as close to non-overlapping as you can get.
Also, they are best suited to distinct markets, bitcoin to the transparent instant global liquidity market, and monero to the dark instant global liquidity market.  
Monero is capable of fulfilling almost all use-cases for bitcoin qua currency.  If bitcoin fails, I imagine most of that usage would move to monero, if monero were the clear runner-up at that time.

I don't see it as a very efficient hedge right now, because speculative activity will correlate highly, but it is definitely a diversification in the portfolio-effect sense, and in some scenarios it could become a nearly perfect hedge.


Thanks.  I see monero the same way, and further it looks to me to be a front runner for several reasons in the space it is competing to inhabit.  And the space is inevitably going to be filled. That pandora's box of dark money was knocked on by bitcoin and something will force it all the way open, and fairly soon.

It's kind of fun to see what the current frontrunners in market cap or hype have in common.  GUIs for one.  More flash and buzz.  All while monero hides in the shadows saying "move along...  nothing to see here...".  It is poetic IMHO. Smiley
5559  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero - Secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency on: June 19, 2014, 04:30:59 PM
How different is monero to cloak other than cloak having a GUI ?
Cloak uses centralized mixing to achieve nothing, whereas XMR uses trustless ring signatures to achieve anonymity.

This is so notable, and yet lost on so many at the moment.
5560  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero - Secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency on: June 19, 2014, 03:38:37 PM
Long term Monero price can be 200$ ore even more if Bitcoin keep rising.



If Bitcoin keeps rising the sky's the limit!

And if bitcoin falls, prepare for interstellar space.


Does this imply you think XMR to be the most likely used hedge against a falling BTC or are you just noodling around?
