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

[smooth]

not to mention "Moneta Verde" conveniently appeared during Monero's early success. Go figure.

Well it was part of the fleet of cryptonote/bytecoin-run spam clones (anyone remember the cryptonote clone-a-coin toolkit? lol) likely meant to firewall their bytecoin premine, so not surprising.

he claims the name is in no way influenced by monero

All you need to know right there

Lets be fair here guys.

I'm fair. The word monero existed before Monero, and certainly moneta did as well. There was in fact even a cryptonote coin called Moneta Verde, and I'm well aware of it.

So the idea of using moneta as or in a coin name is not itself Monero-derived. But the idea of using such a name after Monero has shown some success (and he is surely aware of it since he is operating in the same submarket) and then claiming not to be "in no way influenced" by Monero is not credible. In fact I'd say he's a lying scammer.

Sorry, just calling it as I see it. Granted yes partially influenced by observing how Zerovert was run, and not specifically just this one thing.

Well, If so then Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

I was pissed when a house down the block copied mine until I was reminded of this.

Lets make sure it doesn't use a close ticker and get on Polo.

Again, I don't fault him for being influenced by Monero. I fault him for claiming not to be.

Sounds more like the Scorpions to me.

The eye candy gets the smooth seal of approval.

Thank you for sharing it.

Are you talking about the original bitMonero fork from bytecoin?

I forgot I was the one intiating the take over, but in retrospect, that doesn't surprise me a bit

I decided to expand upon your excellent post. WIP https://forum.getmonero.org/20/general-discussion/211/history-of-monero

I'm hooked now, my old bands to babes! tThese should have been the original MTV vids.

Been Scorpion fan since Day one. Virgin Killers one of my favorite albums still and of course Animal Magnetism.

Sad thing is last time I saw the the young crowd didn't even recognize "The Zoo" !!! I was livid. Yelling at the crowd to get off their asses!

EDIT: LOL those links slowed the thread down!

Nice. BBL Hah!

Thank god the "bit" part was removed from Monero near the launch. I think Monero has the best name out of all the currencies both crypto and government based, and that extra "bit" part was just eww.

I have to agree with you on this, Monero is a very genuine name.

Any reason for the price increase?

This currency is just very unthervalued and now discoverd by big investors I think.
This is just a correction for the low levels we have seen and I say keep you XMR and do not take short therm profit.

For no reason,no new wallet,no big surge of net hashrate. 

The bad thing, of course, is the lack of hashrate increase - I mean, good for me and my miner, but bad for network security. I'm still freaked out about my calculation that it would only take 6 million USD in nvidia 750 ti's to double the network hashrate.

Is that retail prices? Because no one buying that amount would pay close to retail prices.

well exactly, and thats even scarier, imo. I just use 100$ for the nvidia 750 ti, and thats why I use that card because its an easy number.

you just take hashrate (13.65 million hashes / sec) / 750 ti hashrate (250) * price of 750 ti (100$)

13650000 / 25000 = 5.46 million usd currently.

That's all the whole coin is worth at this point. You can't expect enormous amounts of equipment securing it. That will come with increasing value.

[GingerAle]

Error: failed to load wallet: failed to read file "mro.bin"

im pretty sure one of the devs responded.

your putting in : simplewallet --electrum-seed mro

thats not the command with the new wallet client. check the readme.

[cAPSLOCK]

Have you stopped passing arguments/switches/filenames to simplewallet?

>simplewallet

Specify wallet file name (e.g., wallet.bin). If the wallet doesn't exist, it will be created.
Wallet file name:
>mro

I've acquired more the last couple of weeks nearly doubling my stash. I have a tech question for you guys though. How much memory is required for monerod.exe not having to use VM from the hdd? It seems that 8Gb is not enough... Could someone share the knowledge?

Thanks
