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

[onemorebtc]

Monero got a deserving first-spot mention in this letstalkbitcoin blog-post:

https://letstalkbitcoin.com/blog/post/which-altcoins-and-why

I like the example they used to illustrate Monero, its perfect

The guy doesn't have much clue seeing how he speaks of DRK, though. I find it so ridiculous when people happily throw away fluff terms like "instantX", "DarkSend 2", "Telepathy"...
I'm pleased the only fluffy thing we have in Monero is a pony.

Monero's 1 year birthday is approaching on April 18, 2015. How do you guys want to celebrate?

Party at the castle.

I'll be bringing a box of Cohiba torpedo's, been waiting for a special occasion to open it...  So, where's the castle at ?

A google search for "bitcoin castle" will show you quite well where's that, just.. you may need an invitation to actually get in there 

Got something against Estonia?

Might get "Interesting" there. I hope not.

There is a certain very large bear in the vicinity of the castle.

Have you tried to sync bitcoin to see how long it takes? Or you are just familiar with 10days coins with zero transactions? Oh and if you want a real untraceable currency then unfortunately you have to deal with a bigger blockchain.

Btw in the OP there is a copy of blockchain to download usually kinda updated. You can always use this too: https://mymonero.com/#/

The only culprit trying to destabilize that region of the world is the usual perpetrator, America.

By monero, darkcoin ists realy realy not untraceable.

mymonero.com is safe. Certainly not as safe as having your own wallet.

mymonero is safe, getting it to work on your notebook is safer, building a live-USB wallet is even safer, and creating a cold wallet is the safest.

Options for going forward without downloading blockchain:

mymonero

Cold wallet - no need to download blockchain.

Also, you can point your wallet to a remote node, no need to download blockchain.


but if you really want your coins secure, word on the street is switching to linux. Seriously. Spend 50$, buy a 64 gig USB drive, load ubuntu on it.

[GingerAle]

Can all of the awesome monero pool operators configure their servers to function as remote nodes?

Would really help with stuff like captain 5 grand up there.

Or $50 for a 120GB SSD. there should be a VM file all setup for this. Is there?

[GingerAle]

what, for pool ops to run remote nodes?

mymonero.com is plenty safe. The only difference is mymonero knows your viewkey, so it's not the best option for anonymity.

If you do use mymonero.com, just be sure to save your spend key in addition to your mnemonic seed, in case the site goes down you can still recover your wallet.

Pippo, check the first post of this thread for a download of the blockchain. You can place that in your bitmonero folder and it speeds up the sync time.

"+1", I've used the site and it's an easy way to store your coins online.
