[ANN][MRO] Monero - an anonymous coin based on CryptoNote technology

[tacotime]

One minute blocks that are of size ~1 KB (most of the blocks right now) double the likelihood of a miner getting a block.  Selfish mining only becomes a severe issue when blocksize becomes large.  Very few tx are going through the network right now, and few reorgs have taken place.

Additionally, the network hash rate is now 4655 H/s.  A Core i7 2600k does 14 H/s in Ubuntu 13.10 and would represent 0.3% of the network and thus get  4.32 blocks per day.  Solo mining is for sure not out of the picture.

My personal opinion is that I will abandon the fork if merge mining is added.  And then we can discuss a new fork.  Until then I don't think Monero will be taken over by another fork.

Ditto on this. If the intention wasn't to provide a clearweb launched alternative to BCN, then I don't see a reason for this fork to exist. BCN is competition and miners should make a choice.

+1 Even at the expense of how much I already "invested" in this coin.

Can you run Monero miner through TOR? If yes, what change would need to made to the bat file on the opening page? I'm using Windows.
thanks
