[XMR] Monero - A secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency

[papa_lazzarou]

I know that Monero has been doing a "rebase". Does anyone know what stage they are at with it?

Thanks

Most of the current Monero code was not inherited from Bytecoin. In fact, it deviates so much from the Bytecoin code that, despite still in the Cryptonote Family, is a new, more capable Genus.

I say the rebase is over and the fun has started a fair while ago.

I travel light.  I don't usually check luggage, just take a carry-on.  This means no laptop.  Which also means no monero transactions when I'm on the road.  Bummer!
I'd like to use my Android tablet or smartphone and point at a remote node (avoid having to maintain the blockchain on a mobile device).
Is monero, specifically the wallet client, written in c or c++?

Anybody ever thought about porting monero, or just the wallet client, to Android?

Doing an explicit port is not necessary. The ARM Linux binaries already run perfectly well on Android machines.

Thanks for the link.
Now it's a choice between GNURoot and Kali Linux.  I was about ready to flash Kali Linux/Nethunter anyway, so I think I'll do that and then try installing monero.

Can you be more specific about what rebase you are talking about ?

In git terms, this would mean we're moving to a newer version of the codebase we started from (Cryptonote/Bytecoin), and we're not doing that (and it'd be a massive timesink since I think they also changed a lot since we forked).

So I'm thinking you're talking about something else, but I can't work out what.

I think he means refactoring or "libraryizing".

RIght now : mine zcash with claymore and sell it for XMR.

RIght now : mine zcash with claymore and sell it for XMR.

I'm not sure if that's a sound strategy though...at least currently anyway.

I find that at a given set of hardware/miners, XMR/ZEC hashing speed is approximately at 15:1 ratio (i.e. a miner that hashes around 1500 H/s with XMR could only do about 100 H/s mining ZEC). This is from my actual experience so YMMV.

Extending the above relative hashing speeds based on current exchange rates would yield the following (rounded off and before power consumption is factored in):

1500 H/s ~ 0.3324 XMR x $8.00 = $2.66 / 24h
100 H/s ~ 0.01256 ZEC x $66 = $0.83 / 24h

I just saw this and thought it wasn't very bright of the hackers to ask for BTC when they could have had Monero...

The targeted victims don't really know even what Bitcoin is.
Monero popularity still has to grow a lot until it can reach the point ransomware will ask XMR instead of BTC.

Hey guys I've built (and will continue to improve) a pool for Monero.  This is only the testing phase and I plan to scale up to a much larger server once this has finished. I would appreciate if you guys are willing to mine on my server. Ideally I need to get a block or two to ensure that the payment system is working correctly.  At the moment I am only charging a 1% fee, but this might be subject to change in the future. Let me know your thoughts on improvements. What is it you want to see out of a pool?

U need to change the line in the home.html (or somewhere) for calculating hashrate - you currently have it doubled.

I think we'd all know if the Monero hashrate went from 30 Mh/s to 60 overnight.

You can also set up a private testnet to see if the payments work. The instructions are on the pool code github page.

I'm confused you mean the 60 MH/s?

You see, the network HR  at coinwarz is wrong too...

This was an error introduced in some services around monero when the blocktime went up to 2 min.

Code:

$ ./bitmonerod status
Creating the logger system
Height: 1189753/1189753 (100.0%) on mainnet, not mining, net hash 29.81 MH/s, v3, update needed, 8+27 connections

So where is everyone pulling from to be the most accurate?
Nevermind I fixed the problem. Let me know if you guys see anything else.
