Thanks for the advice. Should I try and prune the chain on the old wallet and sync the old wallet or should I download directly the new wallet without taking care of which block height on the chain the old wallet has reached? I hope I have explained myself properly...
Sorry, someone else will have to answer this I'm not up on the particulars. You should pm @dEBRUYNE if he doesn't see this question. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=225398I stopped running a node quite awhile ago. Thanks for the help. @dEBRUYNE has helped me out and everything has ben solved. Basically for now I didn't download the new wallet but just moved the blockchain from the laptop's hard drive to an external hard drive and redirected the Blockchain in my wallet towards the external hard drive.

That's a pretty interesting read, I can see how the privacy features can be pretty useful for North Korea. Although not just North Korea, I think it can be pretty valuable for virtually everyone that's getting into crypto, especially with the Ring Signatures to hide activity

If we forget that 10 time increase that manly come in headlines from this report and was no data shown so we would see how they calculated that. More important is that actually country is mining Bitcoin and Monero. Eventually all countries will mine top crypto currencies. They will make serious research which. And wil fro sure not mine such that will not exist 10 years latter.

I am not convinced why a country would mine crypto, especially Bitcoin. For a country it can be way more profitable to invest big in some crypto and then play with the market. As a whale it can create quite some waves and profit from them. A country banned from the international market may mine anonymous coins indeed. But buying the necessary amounts of hardware may not go unnoticed. So I'd stick to the whale idea.

Monero Devs as a Core team do not partner with anyone, once in a while they will help a project with integration. Anyone claiming affiliations that the dev team is partnering with them is scamming. The closest thing is Globee which is designed to be built upon the Monero Eco system and has some Dev involvement. https://globee.com/

There are people who will always help, because they are good people.
But its just an open source project.
If you contribute good stuff your recommendations will naturally carry more weight.
Get involved if you can. Help everyone and raise the watermark.
Its about time I did something tbh lohg ago since I did the whirlwind missives. Im thinking of some yt videos on chart action.
Google Monero coffee chats to meet some of the guys doing good stuff.
I would like to add dEBRUYNE is an exceptional helper and if I was king I would make him a knight of the realm. Very well deserved Hero.

A recent presentation from the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation, or FBI, shows ransomware hackers have pilfered massive amounts of Bitcoin (BTC) since 2013.
Between October 2013 and November 2019, victims paid roughly $144 million in BTC to ransomware hackers, FBI supervisor Joel DeCapua indicated at a Feb. 24 RSA conference.

Monero is a big cap project that doesn't mean it is also the best privacy coin project, in terms of technology young projects like Ryocurrency(RYO) are far better and worth looking at. The first thing that I don't like about monero is, Emissions, how is it possible to mine 40-50% coins in the first year when difficulty was extremely low, and not many people know about monero. While on the other hand RYO is a small project but did considerable work on emissions and introduce 'Plateau Curve' to keep and emission scheme fair for early and late miners, RYO emissions are almost the same as BTC. This is 2020 and privacy coins with better tech are only going to survive in the long-term.

Has any CN project solved the CN emissions issues with the longevity of chain use? Just seems the whole plan is "we hope the value increases to compensate for lack of output" idea on all CN projects.
Seems BTC/LTC are the only chains that will survive "long term" since they would not hit any type of tail emissions until 80+ years from now when tech will hopefully allow a new generation of digital currency (or no currency at all).

Thanks for the clarification  The cooperation of Exolix and Monero is that Monero added our resource to their list of exchangers https://web.getmonero.org/community/merchants/#exchanges/. And Exolix offers to exchange Monero on our website. Pretty simple, right? Hope this doesn't sound like a scam  If you have any questions about the work of Exolix, please ask

Maybe I get you wrong, but it seems like what you saying is, BTC would still be mined for 80+ years. Technically true. But in 2 month 87.5% of all BTC will be already mined. And after another two halvings that would be 96.875%. Basically for 50 of those 80 years miners would literally mine last 0.1% of Bitcoins.
