Supporting a petition requires staking a block.
Let suppose I have enough clamcoins to catch stacking block. If I vote for petition with my staking amount then send all my clams to poloniex or JD then remove client, intstall it again, change IP (another proxy) send my clammies back to new wallet and try to vote same petition again? Will it be counted? IP has nothing to do with it. Every 1 minute (on average), "someone" has a chance to stake a block. You have a bigger chance the more coins you have available to stake. That is what is counted. |

Would it be possible or desirable to create/construe customized blocks to tie up such loose ends, along with any possibly malignant 0 mixin leftovers?
No because they belong to many different people. What about a script/utility for every wallet account owner to use for cleaning up the dust/0mixins under their control? Yes, its called sweep_dust (already implemented). I like that feature. Is there a technical definition I can read to define "dust"? I guess just in the code. https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero/blob/master/src/simplewallet/simplewallet.cpp#L1846To me it looks like just outputs of below a given size, currently 0.01. |

Whereas, Cryptonote one-time rings mix the payer amongst a group of payers with the requirement that it is publicly verifiable that each payer can only be spent one-time. The one-time key is manufactured by the Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) like exchange that creates a new stealth payee address on each spend and that stealth address can only be spent once. So the problem is that if your IP address is correlated across spends, it becomes possible to link stealth addresses together as the same payee and then start to unmask the anonymity set of the payer rings.
What is wrong with the planned solution of I2P integration to deal with this issue? He doesn't think that I2P and Tor are NSA-proof. That's hardly an outlier point of view. |

Did you try the pruning branch? If you are that close, the savings from pruning should be more than enough make it work.
Is it on your github? I didn't see any links to it on the front page, so I just went with the main source. Sorry, finding it is slightly obscure since it is officially just a test release. It has gotten quite a bit of testing though, perhaps enough to promote it to a link on the first page. You can skip step 1 if you just want to sync from scratch. The file copy is only needed to convert an existing blockchain file. Pruning (aka Light Full Node) test releaseThis release optionally prunes the blockchain by dropping no-longer-needed information once it is processed and verified by your node. This reduces both memory and storage requirements, and perhaps more importantly reduces the rate at which both increase over time. With pruning enabled, the daemon continues to function as a full node on the network in nearly every way. I will be posting a FAQ to answer some other questions about the details of the pruning functionality. Please test, especially if you have a smaller memory configuration. Very small memory configurations (<2 GB? -- I'm not sure) won't work with this, but if you have something that has been barely able to run the daemon previously, this should improve your performance quite a bit. Certainly some smaller-memory systems (at a minimum 3-4 GB of RAM, if not smaller) should be able to successfully run a node now. I'm not sure if any 32-bit operating systems can handle it, although it is possible. Since converting an existing blockchain requires enough RAM to at least load it first, resyncing from scratch with the --pruning option may be a better option for smaller-memory systems until pruned bootstraps become available. Instructions: 1. Copy your blockchain.bin file to blockchain-pruned.bin in the same location. The daemon uses different files to store the pruned and unpruned versions of the blockchain. Once testing is complete if you want to delete the unpruned blockchain to free up disk space that is fine, but I don't recommend it right away EDIT: there have been some issues with compatibility of the .bin files so I recommend backing up all of those files before using a test release. 2. 3. Start node with the --pruning option. You should get a message at startup about the blockchain being pruned (this is done using the blockchain-pruned.bin file; your original blockchain.bin file is unchanged). 4. Exit node to save the pruned blockchain and reset RAM usage. 5. Start node again with the --pruning option. 6. If any problems occur you can switch back to unpruned (start daemon without --pruning) Report any issues (or even if no issues) Limitations: a pruned node can not be used to rescan or restore a wallet that is older than the pruning period (10 000 blocks, or about 28 days). Also, if a pruned node is disconnected from the network for more than the duration of this pruning period, it will potentially not be able to recover on its own, and will need to be resynced from scratch or with a bootstrap. The second restriction is fixable and can be addressed later. Otherwise it should be functionality complete. Neither this test release nor the pruning feature is recommended for important nodes such as pools, exchanges, etc. Please continue to use the standard version at this time for those purposes.Thanks for testing! |

No development at all. That doesnt matter.
It may. There have been forking bugs and other DoS attacks in Bitcoin. If those aren't fixed in Bytecoin, it can easily be attacked. |

Nevermind, my hashrate just exploded! Maybe I wasn't fully synced earlier.
hashrate: 77.1579
Make sure you are fully utilizing your cache. This may require more threads than Monero, depending on your core count and cache size, and whether hyperthreads are supported. Don't expect great efficiency without AES-NI though. Still, better than nothing. |

Updated staking. Down a bit after the withdrawals, and stake weight on the network is up as well. Current average about one stake every 3 hours.
Any idea why the last two staked totals you credited are both x.99y? Seems a little strange. It's explained two posts back. The transaction fees for the two withdrawals were absorbed out of staking income. Of course, we earn transaction fees on staked blocks too. |

You need to quit using so many hallucinogens, or get medical help if your hallucinations are not chemical-induced. Come on now Risto , i think it might be you that needs a dose of reality. Last I remember, Latapie did pretty much nothing for XMR besides hang around... yeah, he was there early on, but it hardly makes him some kind of representative. Sure does when i quoted him saying he started a Monero Marketing company. I can say I represent Donald Trump, it doesn't make it true. It doesn't matter if it's true or not.. it was said. And i believe him (Latapie) when he stated that. What he said was he decided to start a company to promote Monero. As far as I know, either the whole company never really got off the ground, or at least whatever it was going to do to promote Monero never got off the ground. In particular, I'm not aware of any promotion of Monero that was done by any company started by David, and I probably would be, since he's been giving us updates. His updates have been of the form (paraphrasing): "Hey guys, sorry I haven't been around to do more for Monero, I've been very busy starting a company. I'll be able to do more later." That's about it. If you have evidence to the contrary, I'm all ears. |

Great to see the price comfortably above 200K - looking forward to waking up tomorrow to see my CLAMs over 250!
I previously called for 200k-300k. I think this rise from 100k was almost inevitable as long as their wasn't an attack on the network. From here, I'm less confident about immediate upside. Of course we can go to 300k which is a nice 50% upside from 200k, but we could also stall at 200k for a while or dip down below it. From a short- to mid-term speculation perspective I don't see CLAMs as a huge buy any more. I disagree. I see the large buys up the order book as a sign there's several big players who intend on taking it far higher. Some of these guys are buying tens of thousands of USD worth of clams - you don't do that without having the means to pump it much higher. Let me restate. It is a matter of probabilities and just how compelling a buy it is. I'm holding. I definitely think it can go higher. I just don't think it is as compelling as it was at 100k. |

Thanks smooth.
I had 4G of swap already, but I'm trying again now with 6G! Let's go!

I don't want to get in a fight with you.
Could you please have your lawyers come debate me in my thread about what constitutes an unregistered investment security. I want to pick their brains and see who is correct. They can debate me anonymously, so they have no legal culpability.
Rather than just appeal to authority, have them come in my thread and prove their superior knowledge.
Sure, that'll be no problem as soon as you give me your full name. His name is public and is all over his thread with his pictures and he's even posted some videos. If that is your attempt to dismiss his points, you've failed terribly. That would be a pathetic ad hominem, so no, which my arguments clearly show, but if we're going to expend time and resource on this debate, it will be between real people, not forum names. But then again, you were both victims of a notorious troll, so I guess legit-checking isn't your strong suit. Anyways, I wont engage further in this troll thread. All answers has been given (like they were from day 1 in 2014), so have fun with the trollparty you guys got going. Well there you have it. A "real person" (by your definition at least -- as if we're not all "real people" somehow) whose points do not derive from any posts on this thread by someone you claim is a troll or otherwise. He posted the same points long before this thread existed. So go ahead and debate with a "real person" as you requested. I will read with interest. |

I'm not catching you on any word, I'm looking at the dictionary definition and silly claims that people who quite obviously "put (money) to use, by purchase or expenditure, in something offering potential profitable returns, as interest, income, or appreciation in value" are not investors. That's nonsensical.
I live in a country with high inflation. People buy a lot of USD to save their money. Are they investors? IMO, as a matter of common English usage, if purchased to hold for any meaningful period of time, yes. It certainly offers potential profitable returns [from] appreciation of value. Legally, ask your lawyer, don't ask me, or anyone on a forum. Thanks and like said: this has been done. Not only by us, by Ethereum, Augur, Gems, Voxelus etc. It's quite basic. You just bit the bait of a troll and for some reason started thinking there were controversy here, there isn't. You seem like an otherwise intelligent guy, so I have no idea why you decide to waste your time trying to discredit a legit project that warns everyone upfront of all risks, that does something productive and useful and also legal. Power of the troll I guess.. I never discredited anything. If you think questioning double talk is discrediting, then you must feel you are on shaky ground somehow. When you claim that people who are buying an asset with the prospect of appreciation (or who were allegedly promised profit-shares) are not investing in it, that is double talk. Legally, I don't even care, nor do I find those discussions interesting since legal systems tend to get so complex that only specialists can even have a hope of understanding them (and even then they disagree). I'm mostly an anarchist, so as long as what you are doing doesn't mislead anyone, do what you want. But you can't stop questions about it on an unmoderated thread. |

Jinn buyers, according to the claims made in this post. I don't know whether they are correct or not, nor do I know whether your posts are correct. I only know what I read.
According to that dictionary definition people purchasing or expending money on IOTA tokens are also investors, unless you are going to prohibit IOTA tokens from ever being traded (not sure how that would work) and only allow them to be used as network access. They offer "potential profitable returns, as interest, income, or appreciation in value".
There was a lot of misinformation spread by those who wanted to sell JINN for as higher price as possible. Maybe they were just scammers, there are a lot of them in cryptospace. Also note that sometimes I use word "investors" because it's much simpler than to explain all the details. It's just a shortcut and any attempts to catch me at my word are silly. Without the context "investor" can mean anything, so I'm not sure it's a good moment to quote Merriam-Webster dictionary.
