[BCN] Bytecoin. Secure, private, untraceable since 2012

[matej krkic]

I was at Bitcoin London Conf in 2012 and went to have a beer with friends to the nearest pub last evening. I met a guy there (don't remember his name. something like Jeff or John, maybe).
He told me about ring signatures and mentioned something about CryptoNote. I felt interested and tried to ask him for more details. He was with a company too(10 or 12 people meetup) so our conversation was rather short. We chatted a bit and he gave me a card with .onion website address. He said it would be a currency of the future and I had to mine it.

Another thing i just stumbled on is they mentioned a meeting somewhere in London around Sept. 2012. Around the same time there was a Bitcoin Conference in the same city.

It was mentioned before, sounds legit. Jeff Garzik anyone?

Jeff Garzik? Maybe, I don't remember. But doesn't look like a guy.

Old community army is coming at us? Lol.

So, been mining much in 2012?

I used to mine with my old laptop. Difficulty wasn't that high and I used to find blocks rather regularly. So I did around 100M for a week, but I saw no reason to mine further since I knew no places
to spend it. Also I didn't know where it came from and where it would be.

Good for you... I guess.

Are you going to dump it on us?

No, I'm not. When I saw this thread I rushed to my old laptop and even found a wallet file there. 
I'm such a looser, you know. I don't remember the password. I may have had 60 BTC when the rate was 0.0000006.

I think it's all bullshit - show us the proof. Proof or never happened.

What kind of proof do you mean? I don't know how he can proove his words. So should we believe him or not is the question.

Wait for the quantum computers - bruteforce is your choice.    

Don't rub salt in the wound. I tried all my usual passwords but no one hit the mark.

Send me the wallet. I'm the password master.

Your BCT account looks suspiciously like one of the ones that was sold after the bct hacks last year.

Do you have the onion address you were given? Do you still have the bytecoin wallet?

I want you to sha256 all the files you have related to bytecoin and post the hashes, then we can ask further questions about them.

You claim here to have been mining with a laptop, but your posting history doesn't support that, e.g.:

Ive tried saving up money to buy a decent video card, and for whatever reason, i cannot do it. So im ready to rent out my PCI-E space, whoever wants to send me a card, ill install it, and run it 24x7. We will split what BTC is made 80% (you) / 20% (me) - until the card is paid off (which we both will agree on). Afterwards, we will split the BTC 40% (you) / 60% (for a specified amount of time to be agreed upon).

Valid point. That is exactly what I was talking about.

Well, to be fair - your second claim is not really valid since this "saving up money" was in 2011.

The other one tho... Let's see what he has to say about that.

[wildboy211]

I don't have the .onion address. But it looked similar to the one mentioned earlier.
And as I have already told I have the wallet keys files, but nothing else.

What's so weird about mining on laptop?

UPD: Here's the file if you want to have a look https://anonfiles.com/file/a6a540eeb9b5fb8be89460951457a9fb

Anybody of you tried to install minergate on ubuntu? On my computer with ubuntu 12.10 64bit there are some problems with "dedendancy libqt5core5|libqt5core5a", which prevents the miner from being installed. Anybody encountered this? How to solve?

AFAIK, Minergate is working with 13.10 (and higher) Ubuntu version only.

Thanks. That helped me. I will Install the newer ubuntu.

Another Question: Is there a binary for cpuminer-multi for linux somewhere to download? I found only win-binaries and on git-hub some confusing mass of files which made me dizzy... ;-)

This proves exactly nothing.

You can make the linux version yourself. Unfortunately I can't tell how exactly - try to ask it in the cpuminer-multi thread.

I had wasted a lot of time trying to get it working on ubuntu, in the end i installed linuxmint and minergate installs without a problem with the default package installer.

This proves exactly nothing.

Unless we crack the password and find 100M inside the wallet (or 0).
BTW, beware with this site. There are some malware links.

Thanks also to you. I just download Ubuntu 14.04 64Bit. If the installation fails there, I will try linuxmint right after.

I know I know what's happening! Monero guys are trying to FUD this topic! *conspiracy mode*

Its the same here now. Installing starts, then it says:"Failed to download package files Check your Internet connection."

It really won´t work on ubuntu. Now I try linuxmint 17... (which is also based on ubuntu)

I wonder why there is a 64Bit requirement on Linux, but not on windows.

Edit: Successul. Thanks.

[creepywheepy]

Hello all. I haven't been here for a while so I saw your BCN thread for the first time yesterday evening. You know what? It seems to me I had been mining Bytecoin in 2012.

You've freaked me out. I am in indifferent mood about your affirmation and I know you don't have to prove anything but fill our shoes. We've been dispute about ''premining'' and h/r , an exchange has just shut down - after this statement we need some proof. It os as necessary as air.

[Agent99]

I know I know what's happening! Monero guys are trying to FUD this topic! *conspiracy mode*

Haha, maybe.

CryptoNote Exchange is shutting down

Before you freak out: No, we did not get hacked. Yes, 100% of the funds are in our reserves and secure.

This exchange was launched first and foremost to bring monero to exchanges.

hmm this really makes me think that MRO has bad effect on BCN

[GreedyBoy]

the exchange has shut down? man, that's awful

I've left some coins there
