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

[elrippos friend]

Hey guys,

i have a question and i didn´t find the answer on the inet.

- Create a wallet on the PC named julia
- Purchase a Trezor Model T
- Restore the wallet Julia on Trezot Model T
- I have two Julia wallets (one on the PC and the same wallet on the Trezor)

If i wanted to restore a wallet on a Trezor device which was initially created on the PC, is that possible?

Are you sure its hard?

No, because your Trezor uses a different seed. You need to transfer the XMR from the 'PC wallet' to the 'Trezor wallet'.

What ever happened to the Monero Hardware project wallet?

I've never had an issue other than the andriod remote nodes not responding, all transactions have always been quick and super cheap.

Paying pennies to move thousands privately and securely is the best feeling in the world.

For some reason using my GUI wallet with all the blockchain synchronised to it
when I go to mine I get an error message, I click on both options for threads and wonder why this is happening
also What is the easiest way to mine Monero and support the network?

paste the tx-id in the xmr chain explorer and see if the balance is there --> https://xmrchain.net/

The easiest way is to setup a node that is mining --> https://www.getmonero.org/get-started/mining/

Okidoki, i thought of something like that...

Of course do you have one.
On the left side of your GUI wallet you have the table "Transactions" --> klick on it, then it will open and show all your transactions with the corresponding tx-id

I have an xmr wallet that was empty until I sent some xmr from an exchange to the wallet yesterday.  According to a block explorer, the transaction was mined in block 2299276:
https://localmonero.co/blocks/search/af79f699a7d5a69b59ce733c3ab3e8f99f37a2eac5e1edc1b579e848c41492ba
The xmr showed up on my cli wallet on my laptop.
Then I decided to install monerujo on my phone.  I chose the "restore" option and typed in the 25 word seed that I got from the "seed" command of the cli wallet on my laptop.
I restored the phone wallet from block 2299000.  I figured that would be good enough for the wallet to see the transaction in block 2299276.
The monerujo wallet on my phone now shows 0 xmr.
Why didn't monerujo see the transaction in block 2299276?  How far back do I have to go to restore the wallet?  Do I have to restore monerujo from block 0?

Note, I had earlier transactions in this wallet from as far back as block 1143800 or so.  A few weeks ago I sent all the xmr out of the wallet, so it had a balance of zero until yesterday.
I don't think the earlier transactions have any bearing on yesterday's transaction, but thought I should provide the information in the interest of completeness.

All I can think of is a seed issue when entering it. did you make sure the wallet addresses match?
Maybe try a different remote node?
sorry can't think of anything else.

I always start at block 0 to avoid issues like that. In theory it is doable, but practically i made the experience, that it is a good idea to start scanning from block 0 in order to have a clean wallet, besides that, scanning from block 0 on wifi is done over night

I restored from seed on the latest GUI v0.17.1.7 to be a cold wallet in an offline machine. I then generated a view-only wallet from it which I synced in an online machine. My balance is off. All transactions shown are "Received" (green dots). I was able to identify a recent "Send" transaction that is indicated as "Received" (green dot) so I assume the rest of my outputs over a few years (which I am unable to identify) are the same. I shouldn't complain since my balance is a bit more than it should be but I know this is gonna haunt me later down the line. Did I miss a step in setting up this cold/view-only wallet? What gymnastics do I have to do to resolve this issue?

Try exporting the key images from the offline wallet and subsequently importing them in the hot wallet. See (5):

https://github.com/monero-ecosystem/monero-GUI-guide/blob/master/monero-GUI-guide.md#send-monero

Thank you for your assistance.

Importing the cold/offline wallet key images after the view-only/online wallet had synced did not fix my balance issue. I also consequently did "Settings>Wallet>Rescan wallet balance" but this feature did not do anything at all. I even downloaded and synced the blockchain from scratch, just in case the existing one was somehow corrupted but to no avail.

To reiterate, I restored my cold/offline/air-gapped wallet from seed (i.e. from scratch) and created the view-only/online wallet from it. Since the "seed" is the ultimate in terms of crypto backup, I assumed that it would just work without any hitch right off the bat. Did I miss a step in my procedure to restore my cold/view-only wallet setup from scratch?

Furthermore, several seconds after GUI v0.17.1.7 Wallet and Daemon fully sync, it would go back to syncing mode again with "Daemon blocks remaining: 2". Sometimes, it would drop to "1" momentarily then goes back up to "2" again but would never fully sync again from here on.

Please try applying the ban list:

1. Download this file and place it in the same folder as `monerod` / `monero-wallet-gui`: https://gui.xmr.pm/files/block_tor.txt

2. Go to the `Settings` page -> `Node` tab.

3. Enter

Code:

--ban-list block_tor.txt

in `daemon startup flags` box.

4. Restart the GUI (and daemon).

This worked. Thanks! Do I need to keep these (ban list file and daemon startup flag) in there from here on? If so, does the list need to be updated all the time and/or updates would be incorporated in subsequent releases?

Regarding the cold wallet setup, do you know how to operate the CLI?

With respect to the ban list, you should be able to run v0.17.1.9 without it.

Can my balance issue be fixed via CLI then?

Should be, yes. Can you have a look at this guide?

https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/2868/is-there-any-way-to-construct-a-transaction-manually

Thank you. I did it! I survived through the CLI nightmare...in my own haphazard / unpolished way including moving files around as GUI doesn't have the same default directories as CLI. Perhaps, this could be standardized or made consistent in future releases.

Though the wallet balance now appears to be correct, I noticed something odd. The last send transaction which I made a couple of months ago was only for a fraction of a coin but under "Transactions" on GUI, it shows 8-figure coins and change was sent (i.e. 12345678.123456789... coins) to "Unknown recipent" while the transactions before it show correct amounts sent to valid addresses. Do you have any thoughts regarding this irregularity / discrepancy?

That sounds like a bug. Do you recognize the transaction as authorized?

I am certain that it is the last transaction that I did as this was how it appeared when I checked it right after the send which went through successfully as expected and the wallet balance did decrease by as much (the actual fraction-of-a-coin amount that I sent and not the erroneous 8-figure+ amount that would have rendered my current balance equal to negative 8-figure+).

In other words, everything about the transaction was as expected except for its strange amount with "Unknown recipient" shown under "Transactions" in GUI wallet. I had thought that this was yet another obfuscation feature implemented in recent releases but apparently, it is not.

I speculate that the Biden administration will not only restrict ordinary people that do not meet their criteria from buying bitcoin and other cryptocoins, I reckon the bitcoin miners which are registered businesses are also in the list of a government shutdown.

What is the Monero development team’s stance on Asic resistance presently? Will it continue to hard fork to stop Asics?

I might have made a mistake in my support for embracing Asics for Aeon. It is only a small coin and it might not matter, however, giving up on mining with ordinary hardware might be a mistake.



Yellen sounds warning about ‘extremely inefficient’ bitcoin

Yellen said there remain important questions about legitimacy and stability.

“I don’t think that bitcoin … is widely used as a transaction mechanism,” she told CNBC’s Andrew Ross Sorkin at a New York Times DealBook conference. “To the extent it is used I fear it’s often for illicit finance. It’s an extremely inefficient way of conducting transactions, and the amount of energy that’s consumed in processing those transactions is staggering.”
