Is Monero core in a compileable state yet? Can one build it and test it out?

How many "monetary units" will there be, approximately, when AEON reaches peak mining production?
I realize that there will be a "Max supply: ~18.4 million" and "Proposed: minimum maintenance reward of <1%/year for mining incentive starting after approximately 8 years."
I'm looking for the total number of all SATS so to speak.
Any great mathematicians out there?
Or can someone point me to the answer if it is already floating in the cloud?
I think the base unit is the same as Monero, 1e-12. So max supply before perpetual inflation would be 18.4e18 sats, so to speak. |

Can anyone confirm if this German translation is good or ok?
You can just post it, and if it gets deleted, that means it was shitty/google translate. |

Zeroday exploits can be extremely valuable, but they're not necessarily. If you have an exploit for android or ios, sure, but if you have a zeroday exploit for os/2, probably not so much. Given that someone was in possession of a (valuable) zeroday exploit, what purpose would it serve to run around advertising it (not to potential buyers, but just to the world at large)? Why would you want to alert your potential victims to be on the lookout for an attack and to comb over their code to try to figure out what it could be? Finally, I don't think any zeroday exploit would be effective against a small and still mostly centrally controlled distributed database such as monero (or vcash, or even bitcoin). What happened when someone exploited a value overflow and created a billion bitcoins? Jeff Garzik was on that shit ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=822.0 ) and they forked it out of existence, and nobody was even spamming the forums prior to that incident claiming that they had a zeroday exploit or twelve that they were about to unleash if anyone hurt their feelings. So, my point is, I don't think any exploit for a relatively small and centrally controlled coin is that valuable because it will be noticed relatively quickly and forked or rolled back or checkpointed out of existence. Nice signature, btw, billotronic  |

I took a quick look. This appears to be a multialgo PoW coin with Tor and i2p support in wallets. Bitcoin fork I assume (forked from which version and are upstream improvements being merged)? Anything I missed? Elevator pitch please.
Think that pretty much sums it up. Not exactly a pitch, but to expand a bit, used to be dogecoindark, rebranded to verge, switched from scrypt to multialgo (, fixed multialgo). Relatively fast emission, but price was at 1 sat for a long time and still only 6 or 7 sat with a few billion coins in circulation. Tor and i2p support for light wallets as well. Don't think there are any plans to add additional anonymity features, but I could be wrong. |

I read a lot in this forum, that people sold to early and lose big profits. My question is, is there a option, that you can look your coins for a certain time like 1 year in your wallet or a exchange? A lot of people would be maybe lucky to lock some coins for 1 year (like bitcoin  ). This exists in new versions of Bitcoin that have cltv (check lock time verify), where the outputs are unspendable until some point in the future. Also exists in Monero and believe other cryptonotes. |

2. I can`t see clear motives behind not forking DigitalNote, but copy/pasting. First that comes to my mind - you want to hide something. But much worse if you want to steal some idea or source code by misleading people that you are an original author.
The claim of misleading people seems silly considering the OP states it is a fork of digitalnote and links to digitalnote and all of the source files contain a digitalnote copyright. I have no idea why they did not fork via github, but that doesn't make the project not a fork. The concept of forking or open source code predates git/github. I agree with you it makes it harder to share code including in very useful cases like bug fixes and it raises the question of what hidden changes might exist in the code that would be more obvious if it were a github fork. I don't like how you can't search a forked repo. |

Huntercoin supports merged mining with both SHA256 and Scrypt?
Dual algorithm SHA256 + Scrypt - Each algorithm has separate difficulty, both are targeting 2 minute block time and are merge-mineable ^from the first post in this thread |

Anyone here that have actually used Bitsquare?
Last I heard it was in Beta.
I tried it when it added myriadcoin a month ago or so. Couple things I didn't like: You have to keep your computer running it online all the time or your orders disappear. You can't really test it out with small trades because the escrow fees are so high. No one was using it. |

Thanks, got that as a connection now, but that's still my only connection and it's not moving yet. I'll let it run over night and hopefully be synced in the morning...

Can someone post a list of good nodes? I'm getting only one intermittent connection to an ipv6 node and it's taking literally days to sync (and 44k blocks to go still).
Also, there's no addnode function in the wallet? Is the correct name for conf file VERGE.conf?

Vanillacoin or Decred.
Decred has a premine. Also, didn't vanillacoin "turn off" mining because diff was going up too fast? Couldn't that be seen as dev got his share then turned off mining before everyone else could grab theirs? |

Nice. Glad to see continued development  |

It's not even a question:
Monero. You're welcome.
that was launched in 2015-2016 * jwinterm gives americanpegasus some reading glasses |

...
oh okay, thanks for clearing that up. An M to XMR is like a Satoshi to BTC.
So the current amount of inflation is gradually descending. What would be the expected supply of XMR by 2022?
Somewhere around 18.4M. Could be a little less because of block reward penalties. |

botnetcoin
hi bathrobehero! could you explain this? Hi, Monero is almost exclusively mined by botnets which alone gives it a terrible name and for good reason as well. How do you know this? What does almost exclusively mean? I know at least a dozen or so folks mining with GPUs. Why would GPU miner development continue (Claymore miner, Wolf miner, ccminer) if it was dominated by botnets? Simple, take a look at what's profitable with GPUs and what's profitable on CPUs (for which you don't even have to pay any electricity!). GPU miners mining Monero are either just way too dedicated and/or dumb because they could mine pretty much anything else, sell that, buy more Monero and end up with way more Monero or people with some highly optimized super efficient miners which is possible but unlikely. Why do I get the feeling smooth has corrected you on this and you forgot?  What I don't get is how you expect an asic resistant cc (which wants to remain POW and decentralized) to stop this--care to elaborate? Quote that if you like but I don't remember it. Anyway, you act like ASIC friendly algos are worse than a handful of individuals who happen to have infected hundreds or even thousands of random PCs and taking profits while having zero cost themselves. I get that it actually helps securing the network more than anything but ASICs at least are legal and harmless. I get that it's near the bottom of the list on whattomine, but that doesn't necessarily imply that it is dominated by botnets. It could be enthusiasts (dedicated/dumb people), it could be many people mining with their laptops because they don't care about the couple dollars in power costs that will accrue over a month, it could be people with access to corporate/university clusters that they mine with while idle (while similar to a botnet, I wouldn't consider it the same). It could be a lot of things, but you insist that it is a botnet dominated coin without offering anything except for the profitability relative to other coins. |

One last question. What is the emission / inflation rate of monero and where does it end? currently at 11.8m according to coincap...will it go higher than that?
The base supply for variable rewards (each block pays out a tiny fraction of the remaining base supply, so as a result the block reward continuously decline slowly) is about 18.4 million. Once the reward reaches a minimum of 0.3/minute (0.6 per block given the current 2 minute blocks, though that could change) it will stay there forever. In theory this means the total supply is infinite, but once it reaches the 0.3/minute level the rate of growth will be very slow, <1% per year. The first page says this... [2] Initial number of atomic units is M = 2^64 - 1. However, once the block reward reaches 0.3 XMR per minute (sometime in 2022) that is treated as the minimum subsidy, which means that Monero's total emission will forever increase by ~157680 XMR annually. So M = 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 ? I'm not understanding something there... Yes, but with the caveat that the "atomic unit" of Monero is 1e-12 XMR, so M = 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 atomic units = 18,446,744.073... XMR |

Huntercoin supports both sha and scrypt for merge mining. So does myriadcoin (you can merge mine sha and scrypt, other three algos are not auxpow). Pesetacoin seems to still be alive. No others coming to mind off the top of my head.
