Sir Saddam, the Earl of Ramsey has been given the King's Hero medal.

 Cheesy

Thank you Your Majesty for this honorable award. Some say my actions could be irrational at times, which may be true, however this is a game and I just want to have fun! I am glad I was a part of the first Quarry subgame.

Hi,

This is my small contribution the the community. There were some complaints we only had one block explorer so...
Its a little crude but it gets the job done.

It has even got an API Wink (Monero Blocks API)

It relies on Atride's moneroclub node while the DB is not out.

Hope to hear your feedback. Gimme your luv.  Tongue

Wow, it's cool to have women in the Monero club.  Cheesy
726  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: January 08, 2015, 02:33:23 AM
I think part of it is due to XMR never experiencing the slingshot effect of a BTC bubble. It has less exuberance to bleed out. Even LTC/BTC is down to prices that haven't been seen prior to March 2013. It makes me feel confident to put every spare dollar I have into XMR at this point, I'm very close to the 0.1% club  Cheesy

That's 18k XMR?

18.6k. But it gets harder to attain the more that I donate to XMR projects and I also have a Cryptokingdom habit.

There are 8543 coins in the wallet. I can spend ca.40-50% of my working time. if that is ok, I can start next week.
And I'll check the options from other thread about escrow. We need some options and good escrow system with hedging.


donated 100 XMR, now you have 8643 XMR. Smiley

Who is working on Crypto Kingdom?

I see rpietila is posting the main topic, but who is actually creating the game itself?

fluffypony and sXpher are developing the online playable game.

Dump XMR at your own risk! Haha

Congratulations to all the new promotions!

Does anyone want to sell Saddam a Noble Suit? Additionally, Riddick is interested in buying any suit available.

Please PM if interested.

What do you think the chances are that they actually mean that it mines XMR here? Someone with the skills to steal all those API keys wouldn't be stupid enough to actually waste the EC2 clouds mining BTC I'd imagine.

Yes, I hear that anyone can start up a free AWS trial with a prepaid CC (gift card etc) with a small amount on the card, then milk it until they get cancelled. Rinse and repeat. I don't do such a thing myself, but it could explain the massive dumps - they have no cost.

Yeah, it's not just AWS either. Any cloud company with any sort of free trial gets exploited too. It's just a question of how fast they shut you down once they see mining going on. I think I've seen people post about Digital Ocean quickly shutting them down for mining.

Someone on reddit had this happen to them:
http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2qxkfj/there_are_now_bots_searching_github_for_aws_keys/cnaot90

"Had this happen a month ago with an exposed AWS key to the tune of $20K, apparently mining Minero coin. Their bot beat the AWS defensive bot's warning by about eight hours."

I have been self-teaching with some Codecademy lessons and as my first project I want to make a Monero price calculator site kind of like Preev.com but with 3 columns that would allow you to enter in XMR, BTC, and USD values and convert.

First thing I am trying to figure out is how to use the Poloniex API...does anyone have some examples on using autobahn that I can look at?

I feel like I can figure this out but I am just complaining here while I learn  Huh

The Secret Quarry Code is broken!
How did you like the game?  Smiley

I enjoyed the game very much. It seems Saddam's QC has undergone some theft as of late, and we are low on shovels. The best times for Saddam's QC are yet to come. I do not intend to stop quarrying until 5,000,000 stone has been uncovered.

Quoting this for child_harold, from Monero core dev fluffypony:

I just tried the new Monero 0.8.8.6-release. Maybe it's a stupid question but those "25 words" that can be used to recover access to my wallet seems to be generated from some predefined dictionary... so I'm wondering

(i) if I can choose my own set of 25 (imaginary) words, and
(ii) if a brute-force wordbook attack would be feasible in order to crack my wallet given that the predefined dictionary is surely finite.

In short, can I somehow turn this recovery-feature off to feel safer?


1. No

2. It's a 24 word seed + a single word checksum. This gives you a 256-byte key generated from a 1626-word word list (position relative to the previous word is important, and they're generated in sets of 3 - i.e. 32 bits per set). You'd need the world's computational power and then more time than our sun will exist.

Jehst, try sending again but with a lower mixin count.

740  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: December 28, 2014, 07:09:37 AM

In the US, you have Coinbase monitoring your transactions and cancelling accounts if you spend BTC at a gambling site, buy cannabis seeds, or do whatever is deemed unacceptable by the gov.


Is this true? If it is, are they just monitoring transactions out of Coinbase (Coinbase->dice) or further (Coinbase->wallet->dice)?

I have not experienced this myself, but I have seen some threads on r/bitcoin where someone claims to send Coinbase->someone else->someone known to sell cannabis seeds. && they got banned
