Warning: in nearly all cases, the use of a brainwallet is extremely high-risk/stupid. Do not use this tool unless you have a clear need and understand the risks.

---

The tool can be found at http://www.monerobrainwallet.com/.

A brainwallet is a Monero address and keyset derived from a user-defined passphrase. This allows the seed to literally _never_ be written down or typed, and therefore ensures (in theory) that the funds in the associated address are safe forever within the brain of the creator. In reality, humans are shockingly poor sources of entropy and the phrases that they create are notoriously easy to crack (albiet far more difficult in Monero than Bitcoin due to the underlying architecture). Nevertheless, in very specific scenarios and use cases (e.g. crossing hostile borders, fast-approaching malign forces)  they do have a role to play. If you are unsure at all or are unaware of the risks - do not use this tool.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foil0hzl4Pg is a good talk on how someone managed to gain access to large numbers of Bitcoins by exploiting poor entropy in brainwallet creation in Bitcoin. Don't be a statistic Smiley

The github repository for this site can be found here: https://github.com/taushet/monerobrainwallet.

This tool was made by taushet (https://www.reddit.com/user/taushet) on as a fork of Luigi1111's toolkit (https://github.com/luigi1111/xmr.llcoins.net).

3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Monero Mining Monitor: open source remote per rig monitoring and statistics on: October 13, 2016, 11:47:30 PM

REPOSITORY

https://github.com/taushet/monero_mining_monitor

DESCRIPTION

This is a Monero mining rig remote monitoring suite written in python and jQuery. It requires the use of XMR-proxy by Atrides (https://github.com/Atrides/xmr-proxy). It allows you to fully monitor your rigs via the web or locally.

Here is what it looks like when up and running:




FEATURES

  • Detailed statistics per rig
  • Share quality monitoring
  • Uptime monitoring
  • Pool connection monitoring
  • Built-in web server, allowing you to monitor your rigs locally or remotely

INSTALLATION

Windows:

  • install python 2.7.3
  • install all dependencies (pandas and numpy)
  • install xmr-proxy (good guide for windows users here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=735738.msg8331755#msg8331755)
  • change logging to 'INFO' mode, to save space (in xmr-proxy-master/config.py)
  • give your miners static IP addresses, if you can.
  • point all your miners to the IP running the xmr-proxy
  • copy this repository into the parent directory of xmr-proxy (if not, you will have to edit the logfile path in mmm_config.py)
  • open the mmm_windows_start.bat file (or make it run automatically at startup by making a shortcut, running shell:startup and putting it there)
  • open your web browser to http://127.0.0.1:8000/mmm_web.html

Linux:

This is cool.
With it being open source, it should be okay, as long as it actually gets reviewed.
(I am one of those weirdos who runs a checksum for everything I download.)

Appreciate your work and will check this out when I get a chance. I hate the idea of all my Monero being on an exchange/ web wallet.

Thanks! It has already had some review on reddit, with the individual SHA-512 hashes of the individual files found to be identical. That said, it needs more people to audit it, so please do so and post results here!

Nice, but it still relies on the element of trusting the developer.

Personally, I think that is worse than doing it yourself the old fashioned way, regardless of how trustworthy the person in question is.

Not really, it is a trustless setup. The HTML generator file made by Moneromooo is open source (of course) and you can read it.

In short, this method *is* the best practice method accepted by Monero developers, just packaged into a single zip whose contents has been hash-verified (see the reddit post).

Taushet USB Monero Cold Wallet Generator 0.1 (20161001)
- -----------------
- -----------------
by /u/taushet, tools by moneromooo (Wallet Generator), Pete Batard (Rufus) and PuppyLinux Community

This is a bootable USB disk image with tools that can be used to create cold or offline wallet accounts. Verification requires only one md5 hash. See original reddit discussion here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/55dhkf/taushet_usb_monero_cold_wallet_generator/

What you need:

- - 1 x taushet-USB-wallet-gen.zip
- - 3 x USB thumbdrives
- - 1 x paper
- - 1 x pen
- - 1 x Hash utility (try QuickHash: https://sourceforge.net/projects/quickhash/)

How to use:

1. Download the zip here: https://mega.nz/#!iQ1QwACY!63LgepwldjgfBkH8WaXxyGPQ4f5JOvg54Zd4vhtwQdw.
2. Physically disconnect from the internet.
3. Check that the md5 hash of the file matches this: 7E8923A66F8165B890177A34559B694C using QuickHash (SHA-1 and SHA-512 hash below in the edits)
4. Extract the zip file, which contains: slacko64-6.3.0.iso, Rufus-2.11.exe, monero-wallet-generator-master (dir), and this ReadMe.txt.
5. Make a bootable USB of the ISO using Rufus 2.11. Agree to all the default settings in the dialog boxes.
6. Drag the monero-wallet-generator-master directory to the USB drive.
7. Reboot using the USB into PuppyLinux (hold down F12 during boot to select boot drive)
8. Open the monero-wallet-generator.html file in the directory, generate the wallet seed and keys
9. Save the seed, address and keys to the *second* USB drive. Copy/paste, don't type. This is you digital vault, not to be used until fund extraction.
10. Write down the seed three times on a single sheet of paper. This is your physical vault.
11. Save the address (and maybe viewkey) to the *third* USB drive. This is your address usb, which can be used with relative abandon.
11. Remove *second* and *third* USB drives.
12. Wipe the *first* USB drive (containing the wallet generator and linux), or destroy it.
13. Remove all USB drives.
14. Reboot, reconnect internet.

You now have a cold wallet!

*Why have I made this?*
- ----------------------

At the moment, the best way of making viably secure cold wallet address for Monero invoves downloading 6 programs, hashing all of them, certifying them, editing a drive and then finally rebooting and making the wallet. The instruction video is 30 minutes long. I came up with the idea of an archive of all the required tools, pre-verified, certified and checksummed as per this guide (https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/48cgmd/an_extensive_guide_for_securely_generating_an/), and posted about it on reddit. It was quite warmly recieved. So here it is! It should save you considerable time in making cold wallets.

*What are the risks?*
- --------------------

- - I am evil, and have inserted malicious random seeds into the generator and can predict the keys.

This *is* a risk, but it is one that at least is verifiable. The individual files are downloadable and verifiable via checksum from the net. I have encouraged such peer review to be conducted on the reddit post, you *should* read it before using this.

- - Your unzipping utility has inserted malicious code in a man-in-the-middle attack and thus can predict the keys.

Highly unlikely and extremely complex, but still a theoretical risk. For the truly paranoid, you might checksum your unzipper.

- - Man-in-the-middle attack during download

Not a realistic risk. Check the checksum.

- - BIOs keylogger, physical keylogger, RAM explorers

These are on you. Make sure you check your PC for inline loggers. RAM explorers are far above my paygrade. To be super, super secure, make the wallet on a computer that is air-gapped from the net forever.

- - You make an error during transcription of the keys or seed.

This is honestly the biggest risk. Remove distractions, write down the seed multiple times without referring to the previous attempts.

*Troubleshooting*
- -----------------

If you boot into a console screen telling you that x-win cannot load, this just means that PuppyLinux does not have drivers for your graphics card. Welcome to Linux. Just reboot into bios, and change the default graphics boot to your integrated graphics (IGFX, it is usually called). Save the changes, reboot, and move your HDMI/Display cable up to the motherboard.

Thanks! Let me know what you think...

As I have stated above, I get around 590 H/s per RX 480 4GB stock card.

However, I have encountered an issue.

This miner refuses to start if an NVIDIA card is used as primary video driver. My current setup is an NVIDIA 1080 on the main 16 slot and then multiple rx 480s on risers from the other slots. Due to work purposes, this cannot be changed.

I have tried multiple changes in the config file.

Any hints?

Great miner.

With a few MSI Gaming X RX 480 @ 1304 on a research rig (Win10), I get identical speeds to Claymore with some RI/WS tinkering: https://i.imgur.com/3RutBrm.png.

One change request: a quiet mode (analagous to -q) whereby only successful shares and total hashrate is reported would be extremely welcome.

Thanks Smiley
