What is the current Monero DAG size? Any link to follow that info?

I was planing on getting used XFX black edition 570 4gb for $80 while the used 8gb is x2 times of the price $150-160.
So I was wondering for how long I can use those 4 gigs cards.

The current size of the Monero blockchain is approximately 70 GB. Pruning will be enabled soon, which will allow the end user to drastically reduce the size on disk (i.e. from ~70 GB to ~25 GB).

But that doesn't affect the graphic cards memory right?

Huh?

The blockchain is the "database" that you store on your HDD / SSD. Your GPU memory is totally indifferent to that.

Except in Ether coins (idk much about Cryptonight sorry) Sad

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

Bad news for holders of anonymity coins it seems. This looks like the first delisting of Zcash and Monero and it’ll certainly not be the last.

not sure about this...

Who the fuck is BitOasis and who the fuck cares?

Bad new for the retards who use an exchange in a dictatorship and use an exchange to store their coins but otherwise Meh.

Still in the unlikely event its not just faked? they will in that case seem to be suggesting a coin burn. Great. (or maybe they gonna disappear it?)

Riccardo "fluffypony" Spagni, the South African-based Lead Maintainer of the Monero Project, said Monero's inclusion on the Abra platform would further boost the ability of investors in emerging markets across Africa and the world to unlock new markets and opportunities.

"Together with Abra, we share a common goal of creating a system of global financial services that have no centralised authorities involved in their creation, distribution, enforcement or usage," said Spagni. "Beyond that, the increased liquidity and awareness for Monero that Abra will generate is an incredibly exciting development for the Monero community."

What I remember of ABRA, but my info could be old they dont allow for you to withdraw Monero . Just Bitcoin. You can buy Monero there and hold it, but when you want to withdraw you need to change into Bitcoin.

It's a wallet isn't it? Why wouldn't you be able to spend coins from a wallet?

The entire original design was initially based on transferring money for migrant workers like western union does.

If I get the drive I'll open an account and give it a go. I started the other day but they wanted a phone number so I'll have to setup a temp one to use.

I was hoping someone already did this, its been almost a year.

I see what your saying now, its pretty shadey the wording they use. Apparently they are pegging 80 coins but only allowing actual withdrawal of

Code:
Withdrawal

US banks show me show me
 Philippines banks show me show me
 *Tellers show me show me
 Bitcoin show me show me
 Litecoin show me show me
 Bitcoin Cash show me show me
 Ether show me show me

Even though they state you own your own keys with multisig.

It's pretty slick wording and probably illegal.

I believe they are targeting the next crypto hype in 2020-2021. Those new people will not really care much of private keys. They will just want to buy something fast.

I thought I had read that Monero was adopted as one of the coins being held in the wallet and that is what I cared about, haveing a on/offramp.

I could care less about the pegged exchange.

OK, I have found the pertinent info.

However, you can withdrawal and to an altcoin address: (0x (ZRX), Augur (REP), Basic Attention Token (BAT), Bitcoin Gold (BTG), Dash (DASH), Digibyte (DGB), Doge (DOGE), EOS (EOS), Classic (ETC), Golem (GNT), Lisk (LSK), Monero (XMR), NEM (XEM), Neo (NEO), OmiseGo (OMG), Qtum (QTUM), XRP (XRP), Status (SNT), Stellar (XLM), Stratis (STRAT), Tron (TRN), Vertcoin (VTC), or Zcash (ZEC)) but network fees are different as we still do not natively support our altcoins yet.

Anytime a withdrawal is done for an altcoin you will be charged a bitcoin network fee plus a Bittrex withdrawal fee. As we do not natively support our altcoins at this time, they are still synthetic within the Abra app. When a withdraw is initiated for an altcoin the underlining currency is still bitcoin, thus you will be charged the bitcoin network fee. In the background, Abra is using Bittrex to exchange BTC for the altcoin you are withdrawing. Bittrex charges a withdrawal fee. Due to this, the Bittrex fee is passed to you the user.


So yes, they were using some shady wording and by one measure you can "withdraw" (actually you convert to btc then rebuy on bittrex and then withdraw from there).

SO basically that Orange statement is a straight out lie.

I think Monero is one of the undervalued coins. The price is less than $ 100 (~87$). Distinctive features of XMR distinguish anonymity and decentralization. Monero doesn't have a clear leader, like Buterin in Ethereum and the development direction of the project is determined by the community. I think this is what a real crypto project should be. Decentralization should be real, like Bitcoin, and not like most projects. That is what attracts me to Monero.

My friend when I first started to mine monero it was 0.3$ or so, you seem to have a narrow minded sight, it wasn't a question if "monero is desperate to be there", it was more like a "easy bonus" that does not necessitate a lot of effort(maybe 10 minutes for input in a form from a "entitled person").

Monero's reputation was not in question just an fyi, anyway if it was "so inappropriate" a moderator can remove my earlier post so everyone is happy

Any exchange is welcomed to list Monero. If they need any help doing so there is almost 24/7 support on Monero communication channels like IRC https://webchat.freenode.net/   #monero , #monero-dev
