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

[primer-]

I was a bit exaggerating, sorry for that. But you still didn't answer my question why he would even lie about this?

BitFinex is a serious exchange they added DRK/LTC for one reason alone, strong development support.

Monero is still in its infancy, its just not going to happen.

EDIT: However, if there are negotiations in place, please have someone more technical and more fluent in English represent Monero community! David is not the person for this job!
David came into monero-pools channel couple of times in the last month or so, asking what he needs to buy to mine 50XMR/day. He is completely clueless.

5:08 PM <davidlatapie> What is the most profitable configuration for mining monero?
5:09 PM <davidlatapie> (either CPU or GPU)

2:13 AM <davidlatapie> Hi
2:15 AM <davidlatapie> Question:
2:15 AM <davidlatapie> Which hardware would I need to make more than 50 monero a day by mining?

I'm going to assume that those quotes from "davidlatapie" are fabricated.

EDIT: I hope they are!

No, this was the real davidlatapie, miners logging monero-pools channel can confirm.

What's your point? I don't see the issue with him asking these questions.

I don't remember seeing the exchange but it wouldn't surprise me. David is more of a business and organizational guy on the team, isn't that technical by own description, and certainly isn't an experienced miner. He has some business interest in mining now and has been asking questions because he isn't afraid to acknowledge when he doesn't know something, and wants to become better informed. What's wrong with that?

He is doing Monero PR work  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PRLuaD-qVQ) yet he is completely clueless about technical aspects. Had he mined one single block on the testnet he would have known the answer. If he cant research this on his own then he is no good, a core team PR should know better.

He was the person that walked me through every step of mining back in May. I stopped mining, but we should realize that components change rapidly and the most efficient GPUs change. I have no idea what the answer to these questions are, aside from the fact that I could mine one Monero a day on a 4770k last May, and try to do some math and some more math to find the answer just for my existing equipment. Or I could leverage the fact that more hardcore miners already calculated similar math for more scalable configurations and I could just easily reach out and get my answer with a fraction of the effort.

I'd bet that BFX started accepting DRK after possibly some underhanded negotiation convinced BFX that accepting DRK would posture BFX as the leading premier exchange of the fancy newfangled anonymous coin of the future, supported by certain DRK whales' (ahem, Otoh) assurances to make the market.

Moncada [masternode] openly stated in via thread that dark is on bitfinex only because of him. He further said he knows big names and can make dark reach places

[cAPSLOCK]

There was also someone that tried to phish (can't believe they associated such a despicable act with one of the most amazing bands ever) me on #monero with some nick very close to fluffypony's, but Riccardo found out about this behavior before and set log alerts to find when this happened and reached out to me personally via Skype to let me know.

David is actually probably a rather qualified individual to talk with BFX. Aside from great character and proficiency of this space's nuances, it probably helps that Raphael and David are fellow Frenchmen.

Lol.  I wish I had saved the logfile of the conversation I had with him.  I strung him along for like 30 minutes.

He told me: http://imgur.com/e4bhDOV

He thinks his big market for Dash is in medical marijuana shops because they can't work with banks (which is not even true of dispensaries in Colorado, as far as I know) and in gambling

-stupid shit-

Why the actual fuck is anyone still paying attention to this brainless cuntface? First challenge he gets from an authority figure and he fucking runs back to his cardboard box in the alley.

If David is no good, can you please step up and do the PR work?

If not, kindly Fuck off

Some of us aren't, but then that's less noticeable than the shit he stirs up.  Franky I am surprised such a BAD troll is doing so well.

Actually he is the single solitary member of my ignore list.

XMR.FROM as a natural side-kick to XMR.TO has been talked about here. Not sure as to if it's being developed, but seems like it would be a good start to creating more Monero exchange options.

Unfortunately, the domain .from doesn't exist.  Would have loved to get that. 

.fr exists, I am told.  .from is do-able as a TLD, albeit more expensive.

On another note...

Atrides, dwarfpool owner, is every scammers wet dream, here's why :

He operates the second largest pool, dwarfpool. Current hash rate 3.3MH/s.
The only pool that DOES NOT publish full block history! I've asked him to make this data available and was told every time to f..off. so I've scraped his "Last 30 blocks" page every 1 hour and have been doing it for some time now.

His efficiency for the last 2000 blocks is 81% !
No other pool has such low efficiency, feel free to check them all, both big and small, botnet-friendly and private. Such bad efficiency can only lead to one conclusion - HE IS SIPHONING!

Now take a look at https://github.com/freebazaar?tab=activity
Back in January Atrides asked the community for 10k XMR in donations to begin work on an openbazaar fork. Devs were quick to give support and asked the community to donate as much as possible. When someone suggested that the coins be kept in an escrow Atrides refused and the devs made no attempt to force the escrow or even suggest the donators do their own due diligence.

Move your hash elsewhere people!@#
I also expect the community to demand asnwers and a deadline from this professional scammer.

Good point.

Im afraid to say those quotes are most likely not fabricated. i mean check this :

I'm trying to install NEM, please help

1. http://bob.nem.ninja/docs/#installation
2. Dowloaded http://bob.nem.ninja/nis-ncc-0.5.19.tgz
3. uncompressed in dedicated folder
4. launched from Terminal (I'm on Ubuntu) nem/package/nix.runNis.sh
5. Result

Code:

/nem/package/nix.runNis.sh: line 3 : cd: nis: No such file or directory
Errorr : Can't find or load org.nem.core.deploy.CommonStarter
/nem/package/nix.runNis.sh: line 5 : cd: « OLDPWD » not defined

Idea? Java 8 is installed.

the guy has 0 clue about anything technology-wise. i think he knows how to give a  talk though.

actually i was shocked when i saw this post and "monero core team" attached to it. :-0

David never claimed to be a coder. The core team is (also) great because of complementary skills, and IMO David is a great asset for everything he provides.
There are many coders that did some work on Monero and aren't even in the "core team", so the association "core team <-> coder" is meaningless, in both directions.

ugh. someone should really develop a pay per post forum software. This FUD cleanup is getting exhausting.

re: dwarfpool accusation, I have no idea. Based on your other "research" related to monero, my gut is to not trust anything you post.

re: freebazaar, this point is so old its getting old. Those that donated get private updates. Also, during the fundraising, there was no cheerleading from the core dev team. I remember being excited about it. I don't have the time to fish and find the posts (maybe Dr. Bookmarks will have them handy). Is it not happening as swiftly as people would like? Probably. But yah know what else has the same problem? Everything in the world thats worth a damn.

I KNOW RITE! and the guy who sold me my house doesn't even know how to wire a 220 outlet.

Stupid, just unbelievable. :rolleyes:

BTW I think David mentioned he is trying to learn Linux just because of Monero, which is pretty admirable IMO.

just be careful that he doesnt go for rm -r * in some important project files that arent pushed to github yet LoL

Could someone involved in the project (donator) and in the know provide any kind of update on Freebazaar?

No one has mentioned anything at all about it publicly.  If donators have been asked to keep quiet about progress thats fine but please let us know that is the case.

But i prefer our David - he doesn't spread Mac Malware: https://twitter.com/aantonop/status/433080081179611136
