1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] AEON [2017-10-07: update to 0.9.14.0] on: January 24, 2018, 05:24:10 PM
Is there any plan to make a GUI wallet ? For many users is better that using a cmd line...

The monero GUI can be easily adapted after the rebase.


Meanwhile, Athan Clark recently developed an open-source GUI wrapper on top of today's AEON simplewallet (https://github.com/aeontransfer/aeontransfer-local/), which seems legit to me. Haven't checked the code myself, please do your own due diligence, as always.


yeah, i want to stress a little bit about what Stoffu is pointing to: it's all about a caution and safety, try to stick to the "official" releases, don't be hasty. Also, official releases are better supported in case of troubleshooting, and therefore giving a contribute and feedback yourself to the actual state of the code and features (in case of bugs for example) indirectly.

@ilPancrazio. Sorry but for now, Aeon is not a good entry level cryptocoin. There will be many disappointments coming out from this project in the future, I reckon. The first one being the delays of the code rebase. So Aeon needs people who are experienced in the cryptospace and open source projects in general.

Aeon does not need the small speculators who will cry and demand something because what they expected to happen did not come to fruition. If you are a newbie, your best move is to leave now.

Yeah, of course, i pretty much understand that is actually better dealing with core problems first and focusing on the main project. In the above, i actually wanted to state the "kind of perception" it gives when someone is  approaching Aeon... i'm reading a lot from the internet, reddit, irc, that i frequent substantially, github etc. and i figured that a lot of people basically just wanna give themself a chance to try with Aeon, even if they're not skilled in such above mentioned requirements. My personal opinion is that the majority comes from Monero somehow, probably heard of Aeon on the way. And i think they felt like is potentially a good start.
That's the cause that actually brought them here, it means that's a phenomenon it can't be ignored.
I know and agree with you, is not recommended to commit much if not adeguately aware of the risk, therefore i'm not so sure that many of the above mentioned "newbies" are such fools..
My opinion is that new users are still beneficial, more hashrate is beneficial.
In a couple of days i've managed of recovering an old server, in the next days it will be operative, just bringing 2 Kh/s more, all in budget, all thanks to community advices, references and research. It is possible for anyone  to improve themself.

Finally, the tl;dr is aeon is enticing, just with the proper ways, would get more support even with totally newbies, some good strategy already should do the trick.

Hi there, lately i've noticed a lot of interest here and there by newcomers, most are probably not used to cryptocurrency in general. Did you have thought that AEON is potentially one of the best "entry-level" coin in the whole crypto scenario already? My modest opinion is that there are a lot of potentially good ideas to work around, and maybe, given the right instruments, it should increase the prominency and the valuability of the coin itself, and more users eventually.
Maybe i was just inspired by "simplewallet" name of the aeon wallet who knows.. but it sounds like a good road to me. First thing it comes to my mind is a nice beginner's guide, a "get started" just before you go searching for the so many times mentioned "gui wallet like that other coin etc etc..." kind of request. For the very start it may be good to gather some good documentation from the internet, and refurbish the existing one; then, a more partecipated presence of the community with some more experience being pro active and overseeing this kind of stuff, and a lot more i can't properly explain because my lack of english skills Grin.
Then, what do you think about?

I compiled Aeon from source to Linux Ubuntu. Everything seems to be just fine. But the sync gets stuck to block 1000.

It returns the message

Quote
Sync data returned unknown top block:1000

So what to do?

Hi, if i'm not wrong here's open issue https://github.com/aeonix/aeon/issues/117#issuecomment-355760735
hope it helps

Hi there,
i'm kind of new to aeon and crypto as well as many of people recently looking there for hints.
i like a lot AEON despite any other altcoins (but that's not very appropriate to highlight aeon as an alt imo) for many reason, is accessible to mining with average equipment, and promising features are implementing as soon as the rebase is being completed.
So far i read most of this thread to have a good knowledge of the ongoing, i loved the spirit of the community around aeon in the proccess. Sorry my english is meh, can't explain the real feeling.
My expectations are many, would like to see some improvement as well, better managing of things in general... in the times that are needed for accomplish them.

In the meanwhile i'd like to "bump" some useful resources from the past.

  • First, as me, someone is approaching aeon from the very beginning. My advice is to read the Original Post of this thread , you should find most of the things you need there.
  • Second, a guide to the basic use of the aeon wallet here https://www.hiddenjadestone.com/2017/06/24/aeon/basic-use-of-aeon-wallet/
    Credits goes to the blog owner, @thehihoguy , there you may find other useful guides. Very appreciated man, hope you still are in the nearby.


That's for the very start. Welcome to aeon and have a fine day.
