Well, my idea is: Ne4, followed by Ng3 (or Nxf6, depending). Yes, more defending, because if we don't do that, we are going to fall very quickly, in my opinion.

There's something I don't understand.  Monero says I'm synced
but I'm still at block 843390 and 219 days behind

I thought "synced and you may now start simplewallet" would mean you've finished downloading the blockchain?

Ignore that. It just means that at one point you connected with a peer that was in the same state as you (843390 blocks) and it told you it had nothing new to give you. The daemon will of course keep on syncing with the rest of the connected peers.

The first time I saw that I was confused too but ultimately assumed what you wrote:)

Yeah, Debruyne has been spreading the word on the various channels. It isn't up yet on getmonero.org, but the github has it:
https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero/releases/tag/v0.9.2

Fluffypony temporarily pointed the getmonero.org downloads back to 0.9.1 because some users were incurring and subsequently reporting errors. This only happened for two guys on Linux when they switched from 0.9.1 to 0.9.2 (the blockchain is compatible, thus no resync is needed). However, syncing from scratch seems to work fine on 0.9.2.

I see. Just upgraded these three nodes without any issues from 0.9.1 to 0.9.2:

- Windows 7 x64
- Ubuntu 15.10 x64
- Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS x64

For fresh Linux installations (sync from scratch) are you currently still recommending 0.9.2 over 0.9.1?

Longer term, I'm a raging bull, but I expect some SERIOUS and somewhat undue turbulence.

A wise bull should always expect the unexpected.

Guys I recently bought some monero for the first time.
Is it smart to keep these coins for the long term?
And if so how long term should I think, because this coin has been here for a long time now.
And I think this coin is still kinda underpriced, But is it smart to keep in on the exchange?
Or is monero easy to transfer to your wallet and keep it safely there?

Instructions for the wallet are here:

https://github.com/monero-project/monero-site/blob/master/knowledge-base/user-guides/create_wallet.md

Alternatively, you can create a cold paper wallet:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/48cgmd/an_extensive_guide_for_securely_generating_an/

Holy crap those instructions on github would scare away anyone with an interest in Monero. I use LightWallet2 on Windows, works well enough but better wallets with GUIs should be a priority. At least there is MyMonero.com for getting started.


Those instructions look great. Being paranoid is a good thing in crypto.

What about Nxb7? Will that work? We grab the pawn but we are not improving our position. Undecided

f3: 1 vote (GoldTiger69)
Nxb7: 1 vote (Morecoin)

I like the idea of f3 (to free our rook) but am scared of 32.f3 Nc3+ 33. Ka1 Ne2

I love extra pawns but our rook and King are still stuck after 32.Nxb7 Rc8

How about 32.Nb5 with the goal of capturing a3 instead of b7? At least our king would not feel as trapped in the corner afterwards.

The key to this endgame is piece activity. Good luck to both teams.

This seems more like general advice than advice for this move, but it is still something to think about.

Tbh, I don't see a problem with 32.f3 Nc3+ 33. Ka1 Ne2 then 34.Ne4. We are gonna have our Rook free.

BTW, 40-50 % of the shorts I was offering has been closed during past few hrs at loss (they were taken around 0.002).

I was was also thinking about that. Loans have to be repaid eventually so that can help with the rally on the way up if there are still a lot of short sellers remaining.

I don't lend or trade on margin but understand the impact it can have on markets.
51  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [AEON] Aeon Speculation on: March 05, 2016, 02:09:52 PM
What's a good reference price for Aeon that relates to Monero?

I was thinking Aeon should be around 20% of Monero's price.

So if XMR is currently 0.0025 that would be 0.0005 for Aeon.

I'm mainly thinking for the future as the low volume of Bittrex isn't ideal.

XMR is going to 300-320K satoshi very soon, I believe that in current stage AEON can be fairly valued at 5-10%.


5%-10% of XMR is a long way up from here. It might be possible long term but probably not until LMDB is done and AEON is listed on Poloniex.

Not so long as you think, the whole ask side is very thin and every holder is seems strong, it's near impossible to acquire 50-100K and interest grows. Current asks at current price is just 20 BTC worth. Legit CN coins looks hard to fly, but if they do they do it easy.
These tiny dumpers can be ignored, I consider them as random aliens.

AEON having a very small market cap I expected to be more volatile than XMR not less. What do you think the trading volume and volatility would look like if it was listed on Poloniex already?

æ AEON
THE UNTRACEABLE BLOCKCHAIN



æ AEON
TRUE DIGITAL CASH


I am not a BBCode wizard, but at least that's something.
Any idea how to make this glow markup of æ look better?


Nice signature line!

We cannot defend d5 (31.Nc3 Rc8) so we may as well capture d6 now.

The time of centralized marketplaces will one day be remembered like the dinosaurs. It will take time to get there but the trend is clear.

Ripple was cool in 2013.

Have there been any innovative updates since that time?
56  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [AEON] Aeon Speculation on: March 01, 2016, 04:14:30 AM
If someone put a big buy wall (maybe 20BTC+) at the current price do you think it would just sit there or would people dump into it?

Asking for a friend.

I'd like to buy some AEON, possible to do an OTC?

edit: nvm, will take this to bittrex

Good time to buy.

I sense this is the beginning of the beginning.


I sense you could be right for the near future at least. I've been trading them...buying "sell off's" and selling rallies, but I'm thinking I won't sell now just top up possibly

Market timing is difficult. It it nice to sell high and rebuy low but as you mention at some point you may miss the opportunity to rebuy lower.
59  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] AEON 2nd gen cryptonote, anon, mobile-friendly, scalable, pruning on: February 23, 2016, 04:27:49 PM

We're not waiting for some massive rewrite. There are some important tweaks that are already done but not merged. It won't be long.

One thing to keep in mind is that although the changes in AEON were somewhat small in a sense, their effect is not. Combining the lighter PoW and the block time, our sync speed (using the RAM blockchain) is about 16 times faster than Monero on mainstream hardware like an i5 (with AES, 2+ cores and 2MB+ cache). So we have to be a bit more careful to ensure that the DB does not become a major bottleneck.

Also, we still have the pruning branch which reduces RAM requirements quite a bit.




Wow 16x is more than I thought although I could tell syncing Aeon was a lot faster (RAM version).  Do you imagine the pruning branch will eventually become more popular than the non pruning branch or will the high sync speed of Aeon make pruning less advantageous for Aeon (on most devices) in the short run?
