161  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Bitcore - BTX - SEGWIT - BLOOM - ONLINE - CORE 0.14.1 -431110+ BTX Claimed on: January 08, 2018, 11:57:51 AM
Is this the only problem for me? For more than 12 hours I can not withdraw my coins from Cryptopia. Cryptopia also wants to hang up a label for "scammers"?


https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/News


same issue here. I have a big withdraw with status "Processing" for more than 12hrs. (confirmed email.. 6/01/2018 10:51:00 PM ).

Ticket hasnt been answered yet.

Strange thing is that i made a small withdraw today, and it went thru in 2 minutes.

It's a shame that there is no guarantee that the coins will come in the next few days. People have unconfirmed transactions for 4-5 days.

i said many times ,if you want to get airdrop ,withdrawl the coins as early as possible ,the best way is not sell your coins ,hold for the long term .

Its not a matter of time.. it depends on the amount.

My 200 BTXs withdrawal got stuck friday. I made another one on saturday (4 BTX) and it went thru in minutes.

I lost my share of the airdrop. Glad to make it last longer  Grin
Craptopia is probably claiming the %5 on YOUR coins.

Well if its all about the pumps maybe it will be our turn.  Cheesy




Its not only pumps, but it’s frustrating that a lot of people don’t see Monero...
and I agree, a marketing team would not be a bad idea... Monero has a lot of competition
Even there is no real competition...

You do realize that coinhive miners and botnets gave Monero cover stories on Bloomberg, CNBC and Forbes? And that there are hedge fund managers talking about Monero on financial media? The people with money, and who understand the value of a digital cash, are well aware of Monero--at least those who are invested in cryptocurrencies. So not sure what kind of marketing you guys want?

For the regular person like u And me that want to invest in crypto. These people invest in shot coins because they see hundreds of advertisements on Facebook etc... the advertisement we don’t have.

So you want Monero to be more like shitcoins?

Am I the only one who likes not having to deal with people who can't operate a CLI and need to be handheld through basic tasks or who freak out when they read concern trolling?

YES! We need more pumps like these https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@tincho/monero-scam-newbie-in-the-world-of-cryptocurrencies-true-story
Should announce that Monero is integrating tor for superduper anonymity, then watch the market cap raise

It's hard to say because of the number of stealth coins coming out now. There's a lot of competition.
Such as Monero forks? Or the ones with tor integrated transparent blockchains?

Considering a Monero investment...

What do you think about 2018 price potential?
Will Monero stand it's ground against Annonymitiy-Newcomers like Verge and DeepOnion?
Neither Verge or Onion are any competition for Monero with their transparent blockchains. 
can u specify what the basic difference between them?
The basic fundamental difference is that Monero is fungible and Verge/Onion are not. Transparent blockchains make taint analysis possible, while Monero is completely immune.

Thank you for explanation.

What about Electroneum (ETN)? I know it is Monero-based, so can it implement Monero's privacy features (past and upcoming)?
If so, it could become a contender as well!
It's not only Monero based, it IS basically monero with RingCT removed, so a less secure Monero, they haven't even bothered removing all the 'Monero' instances in the code

Code:
./electroneum-wallet-cli 
Monero 'Helium Hydra' (v0.11.0.0-8ea5e81)
Logging to ./electroneum-wallet-cli.log

I have 20% of the Hash power with 3 Rigs, it is insane !  Cheesy
We need more miners guys, The name is good, the logo is good, wallet works perfectly.
All we need your support.
Can you give me some ? It can be useful for the testnet.  Smiley
By the way, 20kH/s on the same pool is bad because it makes bottlenecks for payements.
so if you've got 3 rigs, hope you point one on each pools


What do you mean, i can earn more coin if i mine on 2 pools ?
Yes of course, more pools more coins, it's simple math.

Ok everyone. Small poll

Who thinks we will see 1000 usd before July 2018 and what will be driven the price there?

I believe it's possible , and I think that more and more people will get interested in anon coins... Plus darknet and hardware wallet...

I told all my friends we’d see $100 this summer. Next said $1,000 by the end of 2018.
I believe 1,000 by July almost seems to be a no brainer at this point.

So long as its below x-coin dark coin dash I remain ferociously bullish. The universe is in a state of unbalance. That level of unbalance just can not hold. Something will have to give.
I'm sure you're quite aware that coinmarketcap is not really a good metric, especially not for dash which has more than 6 million coins frozen in masternodes.

Sorry, I don't not support very old cards anymore.

How about very NEW? Still no support for Polaris_12 (RX 550) ?


We need support for RX550. The card is not that old really.

RX550 is not a good card for mining really, I dont think claymore will spend time on that...the hashrate density is just awful
edit:  maybe try another xmr software
It's not that bad, it's doing about 400ish with xmr-stak and its rather cheap and easy to find.
171  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN]Bitcore- BTX - SEGWIT - lowest fee - hybrid fork 1:0.5 of Bitcoin on: December 18, 2017, 01:37:47 PM
Total Payout : User : 6490 - 73417,09228292 BTX

That means that there is some 1.9 million BTX in circulation among people, after all those additional airdrops. So in the beginning there was probably way less than 1 million BTC who actively joined BTX, out of 16 million BTC in circulation.

What do you mean?
There are 11,9 million bitcore in circulation, 16.7 million if you count the airdrop wallet.
He means 1.9m in BTX are in wallets which signed up for the weekly airdrops, based on the above total payout amount for this week.

Mmm some of these markets are really juicy, glad Nicehash is still down.

Electronium does $4.63 per day on the gtx 1060 with the sp-mod..
Like hell it does.

Good day boys.

So whats the sentiment, is Coinbase a pipe dream or are some of you starting to feel its possible.

I know I was always so skeptical, however I now would guess at the likelyhood in 2018 (of XMR on CB) to be something like 50%.
I'm at 1337% now that multisig is merged.

I'm a little confused about MS. In order for it to be actually used, don't the wallets have to be updated? Particularly the GUI? I've seen no evidence of that. Am I misunderstanding things?
Probably in the next hardfork along with hopefully bulletproofs. You can compile the main branch from github yourself if you want to have a look at multisig.

bitcore #5 will have  3 mhash boost from #4 on the 1080ti. same clocks

but remove the fee please


+1 the fee system doesn't make since for something you paid for 

He needs it to buy a GPU man, he's just a poor dev trying to make ends meet.

I'm interested in Monero and love the concept but someone I respect objects to it for the following reasons:

- it uses eliptic curve cryptography, which is known to be a method of choice when the NSA wants you to use something they can break and others can't

WRONG, NSA backdoored Dual_EC_DRBG random number generator library, which just so happens to be elliptic curve. It was added as a default library in some of the most secure programs and was pushed into the NIST release. Also by being in this library release on systems (like winblows) that did not use it as default left an attack vector that all they had to do was change the library being used (simple regkey in winblows) and you would never know you were using a compromised library. Actually eliptic curve is used to defeat various attack vectors the NSA uses so you should get your facts straight.

Quote
As estimated by the authors behind the Logjam attack, the much more difficult precomputation needed to solve the discrete log problem for a 1024-bit prime would cost on the order of $100 million, well within the budget of large national intelligence agency such as the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA). The Logjam authors speculate that precomputation against widely reused 1024-bit DH primes is behind claims in leaked NSA documents that NSA is able to break much of current cryptography.[3]

To avoid these vulnerabilities, authors recommend use of elliptic curve cryptography, for which no similar attack is known. Failing that, they recommend that the order, p, of the Diffie–Hellman group should be at least 2048 bits. They estimate that the pre-computation required for a 2048-bit prime is 109 more difficult than for 1024-bit primes.[3]

If NSA is breaking Diffie–Hellman, but has not pushed for US sites to upgrade to longer keys, then it would be an example of NSA's NOBUS policy of not closing security holes that NSA believes only they can exploit.

- ECC can trivially be broken by a quantum computer

This is just so much of a joke of a statement it doesn't warrant a response. A sufficiently large qubit QC will break any cryptography period.

Quote
- It uses many constants in the crypto that aren't "nothing up my sleeve numbers”. This is one of the main ways to make crypto breakable by only the organization who chose the constants.

By selectively omitting commonly selected numbers you can increase the randomness strength of elliptic curve.

Quote
- the constants were created by an author that only goes by a pseudonym

So what? Kinda like Satoshi Nagasaki?

Quote
- NSA has recently started trying to move federal systems away from ECC, ie they are likely aware of a weakness in it that may soon be exploitable by others

They are preparing for QC realities and have admitted that Suite B is inadequate to the task, why this is in your argument against Monero is anyones guess.

Can anyone please address these concerns? Thanks in advance.

READ THIS, You can tell you friend a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

We're beyond FUCKED if ECC is broken, Monero is not a concern at all https://ianix.com/pub/curve25519-deployment.html

I'm always amazed at how fast changes happen in the crypto space. I mean, it's truly light speed!

today, ALL market fundamentals are pointing to a rise in BCH and likely a drop in BTC:
 * BTC fees have gone parabolic (https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/bitcoin-median_transaction_fee.html#1y)
 * BTC mempool is maxxed and hasn't dropped below 100MB for weeks, rendering it almost unusable
 * BCH adoption is very rapidly coming online, BTC adoption continues to decline
 * BCH has plenty of room to appreciate, while BTC feels topped out and overbought
 * Roger Ver interview on CNBC and the host agrees with him that BCH is the only way forward

Gentlemen, history is being made, right here, right now.

If Chicago wants to trade futures on a useless crypto, fine by me. I'll stick with coins that WORK.


Don't hold your breath, you might turn blue.

Thanks for the confirmation.  I hope mymonero.com site being down is just temporary.   If the site comes up, I might try to get my XMR out of that site and into another wallet.  These web wallets make me nervous.  

You can always use your seed from mymonero in the regular wallet. I'm not sure exactly how to do that, but I know it's possible.
Here is how it's done in CLI wallet.  

It would probably take me as long as waiting for the site to be fixed  Tongue

edit:
this one is for mymonero keys, not seed
Mymonero uses 12 word seed rather than 25 so that's probably the only option.
179  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero - A secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency on: December 15, 2017, 06:36:05 PM
Why does Dash have a higher market cap than Monero? It seems like an inferior solution that's much less elegant. Masternodes seem vulnerable and you have to take action to send Dash anonymously. Also, isn't Monero more widely used in commerce?
You pretty much answered your own question, masternodes freeze large portion of the coins which increases scarcity.

I'm no expert but as far as I know elliptic curve cryptography is used in pretty much most pub/priv key implementations for far more important stuff than Monero. If it's broken we'd be in a whole lot of trouble and Monero would be least of our concern.
If you can figure out an attack vector you're free to collect a hefty bounty. To my knowledge quantum computers do not exist and the fundamentals of quantum computing are still unknown.
