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

[Chicken_76]

I went back to the exchanges I used and found where I sent Monero on two different occasions to the same address; one in May and another in July. I don't normally keep track of addresses, which means I would have had to log back into the wallet created in May to get the address to use in July. And no, unfortunately, the address doesn't agree with the one I get when I did the restore-deterministic-wallet. Is there a way to restore a wallet from the address or is the .keys route the only one?

Hehe, if you could restore a wallet just based on the address nobody would be able to hold any coins. It would be like spending money out of someone's bank account by just knowing their IBAN account number.

This means you had a different account back then and then by mistake you created another one and backed that up. Try to remember on which computer you used the GUI wallet, on which account on that computer, if you reinstalled the OS in the meantime.

Is there any ETA for development called Kovri which should make transactions more secure?
This development looks definitely interesting.

@sgjenks01: Can you check the GUI wallet folder (Documents\Monero on Windows | ~/Monero on Linux and Mac OS X) and see whether your withdraw address is in any of the <wallet-name>.address.txt files? Then you'll know which wallet you had open in the past.

Monero GUI has a box for the amount to be send. Right side of that box is a button "All". That button is better to be removed, so that no one will accidentally send all xmr.

That button is quite intuitive in my opinion. Furthermore, there is a confirmation window thereafter that'll show the amount.

I have found 5 blocks now! Difficulty is way to high for me to continue mining any more though.

Someone let me know when another clone of this coin comes out. I want to get in on it right at launch.

LOL look at monero now dude

It is intuitive, but the accidents do not ask a license when they happen. Only useful need for the button is to empty the wallet fast with no need to do the calculation to reduce the fee from the total sum. So I think the "All" button is almost useless.

You don't have to use it, but I'd even go so far as to say it is necessary at times.  I've used it a few times already.  Doesn't have to be so prominent, but I see no issue as is, either.

Unless you want to burn a wallet.

As long as there is some serious messages. "Are you sure you want to send all coins from this wallet?"

which paperwallet is the best one to use ? or are there any hardware wallets supporting monero?

You can follow either of these guides if you want to create a secure offline paper wallet:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/48cgmd/an_extensive_guide_for_securely_generating_an/

https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/5limu9/taushet_usb_monero_cold_wallet_generator_release/

https://github.com/Arux-BTT/TinyMoneroCold

The first one has pictures and videos. Note that if you have a separate, airgapped computer (i.e. a computer that stays offline permanently (never touches the internet)), you can skip the steps where a LiveUSB is created.

I love this one myself, made up on the fly by BG4, master of paper wallets!

Well, I didn't mean with JUST the address, but perhaps with an address and password. Anyway, I have not reinstalled the OS in recent memory, it was long enough ago that it was before the first purchase of XMR. I went to my oldest cloud back from July and it had the same address as all the other files. So... You are right. At some point, I apparently changed the mneumonic key to match the empty address. Live and learn. There goes the new Tesla Roadster! Thanks for you help.

A PDF is a security issue!

Mining Monero is a good choice.
Look at Dash recently, growing soooo fast this year.
I was not interest in XMR and DASH last two years, but it seems I was wrong.
You guys should invest in XMR. Keep my words.

By the way, if you want to mine.
Envion is awesome

thank you very much for helping me out

Hey guys, what do you think? Will XMR raise up to 1000USD or better to sell my XMR?
For now everything looking fine, but I dont know how long it will look that nice.

[stna1981]

No one knows. Either you sell and take the profit you have so far or you hold with the risk of losing everything. Depends on how greedy you are and/or if you can afford a complete loss.
