Yes somebody has been buying 10.0 and selling 9.5 for quite a while now.

In the wake of http://www.blockstream.com/ essentially making sidechains an inevitability - what is the point of holding XMR now? Wont all of the privacy Monero offers be available within the bitcoin blockchain?

how?

As I understand sidechains, you can essentially utilize all of the functionality of an alt while remaining on the bitcoin blockchain. This therefore removes the need for any alt, including Monero.

i see. it is done by hand-waving.

it is a familiar technique, which accomplishes much - but it does not accomplish what you suggest.

Expecting a serious response to a serious question, but I get trolled. If you are looking to instill confidence in Monero this is not the way to go about it.

The benefit of Monero is that all the users are apart of the anonymity set, not just the people on the side chain.

For the side chain to work best, many people would have to keep funds in the side chain for a period of time, the shorter, and the worse the overall anonymity of all users will be.

apart or a part, english be funny

Can anyone give me info on the RNG used at Seals With Clubs? Has it been verified/audited by a 3rd party? If not, why so? Any information is appreciated. Micon I know you read through this thread... care to step in? Smiley

Beefheart

Being able to verify that everything is probably fair would be the only way I'd consistently play at an online poker site for Bitcoin. Idk if it's somethkng with the software they use but it should be fairly easy considering every other successful Btc gambling site can prove their games are provably fair.

This has been brought up several times and although I can't give you details, the bottom line is that you can't use the same provably fair techniques for poker that are used for games against the house. 

As for the RNG, it comes with the Mavens software which is the basis for Seals and has been tested.  It's easy to find the info.

The developers of this coin were the major sponsors of that GUI wallet project.

There is nothing wrong with third party wallets. Having multiple wallets to serve different audiences is a good thing. All of the major wallets for Bitcoin are third party, including Electrum, Multibit, Mycelium, Blockchain.info, etc.

The developers sponsored it, decided it wasn't good enough and then started making a new one from scratch. The new one has been in development for many months.

I took that as an indication of no confidence from the development team.

As I recall it was more like, we know the GUI we want will take a while due to the changes needed to the core to make this possible.  Core changes are a higher priority at this point.  We are offering a bounty to those that can develop a GUI for the current state of development. 

I have no idea what the state or usability of the GUIs are as the CLI works for me.  I never used command line before Monero.

I have coins in my wallet Smiley Cheesy Grin

The syncing got stuck a few times near the end, after 75%.  I got it unstuck by closing and reopening the wallet.
1867  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][HYP] HyperStake | 750% PoS | Most Advanced Coin Control Wallet | 7 Markets on: October 19, 2014, 12:03:24 AM

For windows just download this .exe and double click it.  https://github.com/presstab/HyperStake/releases/tag/v1.0.6.5

If you can't get connections, find peers here http://hyp.cryptocoinexplorer.com/peerinfo
in debugwindow "addnode <ipaddress> add"

TY.  I downloaded it and even though It was a compressed folder I didn't extract it as I didn't know where would be appropriate but instead followed your instructions and "just" double clicked it.  The wallet opened up and it's currently syncing.  There is no desktop icon.  After it finishes syncing should I extract it somewhere?  Will that give me a desktop icon?

Thank you all for your patience. 

currently 25% snyced

Thank you David for giving what I assume are the required dependencies.  However that does not change the fact that I understand nothing and therefore have no idea what to do with the code.

  I need something along the lines of "The Idiot's Guide to Installing HYP" because when it comes to computers I am ignorant./quote]
1. Copy command-line
2. Open terminal
3. Paste command-line and press enter
4. Go preparing a coffee, watch an episode of your favorite TV series (I recommand Century City or Real Humans)
5. Return to your computer and double-click the "HYP" shortcut

By the way: I just released HyperDigest #4 - HyperStorm.

Preface: I have Windows 8.1, I forgot to mention this

1. Copy command-line
Is that the code you posted?

2. Open terminal
I assumed this was Command Prompt and google confirms this.

3. Paste command-line and press enter
I pasted the last code you posted into Command Prompt right after C:\Users\Me>
and received the following:
'sudo' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

4. Go preparing a coffee, watch an episode of your favorite TV series (I recommand Century City or Real Humans)
I haven't owned a TV for many years but I'm sure there is something I can do with my time.

5. Return to your computer and double-click the "HYP" shortcut
I wish Smiley

And Claymore cut the fee in half.  Claymore is for AMD and there is an open source one for nvidia.

I guess squiggie's advice is appropriate.

I recently purchased some HYP and was looking to download the software/client.  I went to the wiki>installation and it starts with the following:

Paste this code on a shell (Unix only, or Windows with MinGW). This assumes you already have the required dependencies installed (including git).


Please help as I am ignorant.  Other than copy and paste I understand nothing.

The early adopter phase of my virtual world - Crypto Kingdom is starting NOW.

If you are interested in the game, want to fund its development, and enjoy a bit of speculation, now it is possible to buy ingame gold. Minimum at this point is for 100 XMR (about BTC2.5) but it will be listed soon and then smaller lots become possible.


I think you mean BTC0.25 Embarrassed

I think the point being many coins have taken a hit recently and they had nothing to due with the threatened attack of BCX.  This makes one question how much of an effect it had on XMR.  I see your point because only BBR was mentioned however your response was at a similar level in that it just perpetuates the cycle.  

Each coin has it's own dynamic but I wonder how much the recent MintPal fiasco has had an effect on certain coins.

The one good thing for me with this drama is that when BCX announced his attack in the Polo troll box and the price dove I sold all my XMR on MP and rebought cheaper on Polo.  

Best of luck to those with any type of crypto on MP.

sow hat was the fix? all i saw that there was checkpoints added. .. but that is not a permanent solution. after many blocks the check point will become useless. Is the solution to add more check points on and on?

Serious question.

As I understand it the system now automatically adds checkpoints as needed.

This change was for a time warp attack.

Is quantum gravity a theory of quantized spacetime, or is spacetime only an approximation valid in a certain regime? What are the fundamental degrees of freedom? Is there a well-defined Hilbert space for the universe, and what is its dimensionality? Is time evolution fundamental, or does time emerge from correlations within a static state?
1877  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: October 16, 2014, 11:46:03 PM

Of course I support cryptocurrency usage. I'm talking specifically about crypto in video games, which clearly do not need it to succeed.


What needs crypto to in order to succeed?

Is Poloniex trustworthy? Would hate to see this MintPal thing happen again! 

I don't have the details but they were hacked a while back for an amount of significance and repaid all their customers.  Obviously since then security has been improved.
1879  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: October 15, 2014, 07:25:56 AM
It's been a rough few days for many coins it seems.  BBR just took another hit.  Dark, btcdark, dark(duck)note, doge, bitsharesX are all down significantly.  Even ltc is down some.

Although this is not real analysis, these are coins I check every day so to me it seems obvious.

Daddy are we there yet? Huh

For once the answer is yes. Cheesy


But this looks like home! Shocked

Yes you are safe and sound Smiley
