OK I couldn't resist and bought some more.  

What can you do with these things?

Edit: Since I bought we should be going down a bit more.  @ the world revolves around me.

@AP

Monero currently has 12 decimal places as opposed to 8 for Bitcoin.  As I understand it bitcoin can change this aspect relatively easily.  Currently the 12 decimal places aren't meaningful and exchanges use 8.  There is some basic math differences between 8 and 12 places but I don't remember the significance as it went in one neuron and out the other.

If you are asking about the naming convention, it has been discussed a bit but I don't believe there is a consensus.

I went to withdraw and requested 176 chips.  I then selected btc and I received the following info.

Cashout Amount in USD: 176 (BTC: 0.17) (1 USD = 0.0010 BTC)

All I want is 176 chips which equals 0.0176 btc not 0.17
Why is USD even mentioned and why is 1 USD stated as 0.0010 btc?

I am going to assume this is a display/info error and am hitting the submit button.

Yep after hitting the submit button the stated amount for the withdrawal request is correct.

when generating new address will be added? like poloniex and cryptsy

I recently signed up and was going to make my second btc deposit today and did not see how to change my deposit address.  I emailed support and am waiting for an answer.  So I decided to check out this thread and came upon this post.

Is it still not possible to change your deposit address?  This should be standard procedure.

Skimmed through a little, Bytecoin solicited CoinTelegraph for articles I think

It was started by the people behind bytecoin and started with pro bcn articles and some anti Monero ones mixed in with their coverage.  Evolved from there.  Writer being interviewed says they are scammers in how they treat the writers.

A lot of work is here But the price is Frustrating ..... what's a real plan by the community for get higher price ?

May I suggest sailing on aminorex's boat.

That small dumped that just happened or is happening started 2 minutes after I bought.  What else is new.  YW
1248  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] AEON -- MANDATORY UPDATE, HARD FORK BLOCK 592000 (approx 2015-08-04) on: August 05, 2015, 02:13:13 PM
On my piece of shit machine all I have ever used as a miner was the LucasJones one.  As the new version for Aeon had a bug and the fix has not been binaried for an idiot like me, I have been using Wolf's non AES-NI version.  I mine with both of my cores and although that maxes it out on either LJ or Wolf, using Wolf makes even displaying web pages excruciatingly slow, maybe 1 minute to open BCT.

Looking forward to the new LucasJones binaries.

Edit:  while using my comp with only one core it works but it is an even more pathetic HR
i updated lucasjones binary with the fix here https://github.com/Arux-BTT/CPUMiner-Multi-cryptonight-light/releases/tag/04082015
cpuminer-lucasjones-with-cryptonight-light-w64-05082015.zip file should work now.
(there was a defect with the ancient file named cpuminer-lucasjones-with-cryptonight-light-w64-04082015.zip)

you can give it a try.
I haven't said it publicly as i guessed wolf's binaries was enough


Thank you.  It's working! and I can use my comp at the same time!! 

BTW I don't know if the HR for your pool is correct on your home page.   I don't see how I can have 1/2 the total HR out of 3 miners Huh

I am between you and the rest of the community as my IQ is only 106 when I measured it 1 or 2 ago with MENSA's test. However, I am able to study in university of Helsinki at the faculty that rejects over 90 % of the appliciants.

Smartest man I ever worked with was Feynman.  His tested IQ was 125 -- far lower than my own.  Naturally I have  healthy skepticism about the ability of Weschler tests to compact infinite-dimensional mind into a positive bounded integer.  Stupid is as stupid does.

Dropping names huh Tongue

OK you made me look it up  Tongue and while the top 3 search results where rehashing the same info, I found this.

Gleick's bio actually puts it at 125. There are a couple reasons to not care about this factoid:
- Feynman was younger than 15 when he took it, and very near this factoid in Gleick's bio, he recounts Feynman asking about very basic algebra (2^x=4) and wondering why anything found it hard - the IQ is mentioned immediately before the section on 'grammar school', or middle school, implying that the 'school IQ test' was done well before he entered high school, putting him at much younger than 15. (15 is important because Feynman had mastered calculus by age 15, Gleick says, so he wouldn't be asking his father why algebra is useful at age >15.) - Given that Feynman was born in 1918, this implies the IQ test was done around 1930 or earlier. Given that it was done by the New York City school district, this implies also that it was one of the 'ratio' based IQ tests - utterly outdated and incorrect by modern standards. - Finally, it's well known that IQ tests are very unreliable in childhood; kids can easily bounce around compared to their stable adult scores.
So, it was a bad test, which even under ideal circumstances is unreliable & prone to error, and administered in a mass fashion and likely not by a genuine psychometrician.
As the saying goes, the plural of anecdote is not data, and this isn't even a very good anecdote. (I charitably assume that Feynman isn't joking here about the score; Gleick gives no source.)



... harassed ...

Sadly the hard drive with my keys was lost in a boating accident. All I have left to show is a couple of hundred on my (fully validated) poloniex account.  So naturally I will be a dip buyer again.

Sorry for your loss.

Maybe we should start a banana fund.

One more pool related observation.  Even though the block target time has gone from 1 to 4 minutes both pools still have the following:

Maturity Depth Requirement: 60

That = ~ 4hrs
1252  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] AEON -- MANDATORY UPDATE, HARD FORK BLOCK 592000 (approx 2015-08-04) on: August 04, 2015, 10:53:22 PM
Smiley

One more thing,

Your pool>Getting Started>Mining Pool Address, it is listed as poolhost.com which doesn't work.
1253  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] AEON -- MANDATORY UPDATE, HARD FORK BLOCK 592000 (approx 2015-08-04) on: August 04, 2015, 09:20:19 PM

Minimum Payment Threshold: 0.050 AEON

The technical aspects I know little about.  It just seemed to me that the threshold is rather small and dusty.

Yes I agree it would be better to set it higher especially with the value and difficulty as low as it is.

0.05 is something like 0.0000025 BTC

I will be bumping up the default transaction fees to a more realistic level and improving handling of transaction fees generally once everything is stable after the hard fork
updated
Minimum Payment Threshold: 0.050 --> 0.500
Denomination Unit: 0.001 --> 0.010
Transfer Fee : 0.0010 --> 0.000001 (0.0000 will be displayed)

On the payments page of your pool it is listed as

Minimum Payment Threshold: 0.100 AEON
Denomination Unit: 0.100 AEON

I am useing -a cryptonight-lite

Hmm. Maybe there is a bug in it. Did you try Wolfs?


No because of Arux's posting...............

use non-AES-NI on old cpu (else you will get a message 'cpu not supported")


That be LucasJones AFAIK.  Wolf's non AES-NI never worked for me in the past.


Back to work I go,  ohhhh

my apologies, LucasJones binary don't work as expected. there is an error but i still don't know wich one.

Wolf binaries are OK.
AES-NI optimization for recent hardware and non AES-NI for older.


Thank you Arux.  I am using Wolf's non AES-NI and it is working.

Yes all I get with the LucasJones miner is booooo for Moneromoo's pool and for Arux's I was getting booooo and now I get "Stratum connection failed: couldn't resolve host "http" (I have http://52.8.47.33 ) followed by :3333
1258  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] AEON -- MANDATORY UPDATE, HARD FORK BLOCK 592000 (approx 2015-08-04) on: August 04, 2015, 01:48:11 PM
just built cpuminer binaries for windows (my cross compilation was a bit messy  Grin) i used mooo's code source (github.com/moneromooo/cpuminer-multi)

https://github.com/Arux-BTT/CPUMiner-Multi-cryptonight-light/releases/tag/04072015
[EDIT] https://github.com/Arux-BTT/CPUMiner-Multi-cryptonight-light/releases/tag/04082015


at the hard fork, this cpuminer will be able to send shares to a compatible pool with -a cryptonight-lite cryptonight-light arg. [edit]typo
example:
Code:
minerd -a cryptonight-light -o stratum+tcp://52.8.47.33:3333 -u WmsFoKjNnCvXkTtVx8zMR8B76rhh8aUs96NkQNVo4TFiBB15ftw2YCCar9utqavY49EbZzuKink5b2NexqgrhJEx2PzbGpU8M -p x -t 2

use non-AES-NI on old cpu (else you will get a message 'cpu not supported")
don't use it before #592000, you will get banned for invalid share.


i will switch my pool manually just before block ~592000 to be compatible with cryptonight-light. you must use stratum+tcp://52.8.47.33:3333 (stratum+tcp://aeonpool.arux.ma.gy:3333 don't work)

I downloaded the non_AES-NI Lucas Jones miner and see you included the batch file.  I checked it out and inadvertently started the miner.  How long am I banned for?

Also what is "pause" at the end of the batch file?

LMDB sync from scratch in just over 3 hours, and daemon using only 60MB to 100MB RAM. DB is so small I can't find it. What a difference!

I haven't built monero or synched from scratch with the DB personally but this is certainly encouraging news. Impressive, very impressive.
 
 
With the reduced memory requirements is it time for me to set up my dedicated full node? 

I saw a brand new HP Intel Celeron laptop with 2GB of memory on sale at Best Buy last night for $179.  It was too good of a deal so I bought it.  I've been planning to create a Monero "pretty-secure" wallet station for a while so I'm not holding all my coins on Poloniex. 
 
The ultimate plan for the savings is to hold a third in a secure online service (currently Poloniex), a third on a full node running on a laptop only used to run that full node (with an encrypted backup), and a third in cold storage. 
 
Thoughts?  Also, this little thing came with Windows 8.  I've never used a Linux distro before, but I was thinking about trying it for this project. 
 
(also, I would obviously only play around with test amounts of coins until I am very confident in my abilities to send/receive Monero on a direct level)

Why not MyMonero as a secure online service instead of Poloniex? Smiley

ssssshhhhhhhhhh, monero is slow and bloated. Grin

hello people!

I can confirm that Monero is slow and bloated Sad
