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

[luigi1111]

Will you PR it to the offline generator?

https://github.com/moneromooo-monero/monero-wallet-generator/pull/1

Thanks, merged, signed, and pushed.

Addresses generated earlier are still totally valid of course, and can be restored with simplewallet.

Yes indeed. Thanks.

If someone desperately needs to restore their "cold storage" wallet to MyMonero, and they created it before this new change, they can contact me, and I'll walk them through it.

Congrats on another XMR milestone!

Congrats on another XMR milestone!   

Is some special meaning to this other than page number?

Soon more attention come to XMR. Many new pages

[rpietila]

What's the word on "in the works" XMR exchanges? All the talk a few months ago was about some new fiat/XMR exchanges coming onto the scene. I believe Rpietila was mentioned as involved in at least one. What's the rumpus? The whole polo kyc/aml thing has tempered down, but the market won't properly grow until the speculative aspect has diversified and expanded. Personally I won't go within 10 blocks of an exchange that wants my firstborn just to trade crypto to crypto. So?

My plans haven't changed. The "company" is accumulating 100,000s of XMR and it takes time. I have told all in advance. When this phase is ready, we go to the next phase and open trading. September is still the timeframe.

You can ask the others how they are doing.

But the most important/interesting thing happening with XMR is still Crypto Kingdom.

Haha page 1337... there are many companies, and this one is on the good side (see the discussion in Monero Speculation when I introduced it).

I don't believe the dark side is that much on accumulating XMR peacefully, they rather steal and destroy. Sometimes I wonder how so many people still want to work for them..

seems to me like there is some memory leak with 0.9 beta on win 7 x64.
after letting it run 24h something like 8 gb of ram was used, but not visible in the task manager. once i stopped it ram droped down to the usual levels. will try to retest so i can give better feedback.

Bear in mind that the memory usage is NOT constant. LMDB is greedy for free memory so it can cache aggressively, but it's also very willing to give that memory up to anything else that needs it. On an under-utilised system you can expect LMDB to suck up as much available memory as it can, whereas on a busy system you'll see it drop down to the <100mb mark for the most part.

I often chuckle at work at 13:37 and sometimes at 4:20 too, think I may need to get out more

yes thats what it is. the relevant number is the privately used RAM wich can not be shared with other processes. this number is nearly always below 50mb. this is the number that is shown in the non detailed task manager list.

as visible on the screenshot, 1.032 gb is reserved, but 0.992 could also be shared. difference is the private part wich can not be shared.

however in windows task manager graphic, the 1.032 gb is shown.  maybe the spike i saw was because refreshing the simplewallet from scratch.


my page 1337 post went back to 1336 manipulation!!

Ive had mine running solid for 18 hours or so, and it is using 50 megs.  Pretty impressive.

Stockpiling a CN coin is no good for the anon.

EDIT: Wow! Somebody just messed my trust rating. Is what I said incorrect?

Stockpiling 80% or more could be problematic. Stockpiling <1 million (<11% of current, growing, supply) is no concern at all.

Getting this error trying to compile bitmonero on Raspi2 (raspbian OS)...any ideas?

Looks like an out of date version of gcc that doesn't know about the specific cpu model. You could try to upgrade to a newer gcc or go into the cmake script and get rid of the -mcpu and -mtune options.

EDIT:

cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-std=c++11’

Looks like you need to upgrade gcc in any case.

I used the rpi2 Ubuntu, I guess it has a newer gcc.

Can confirm this, was working on my laptop yesterday whilst the daemon was open and it only used around 80 MB. Furthermore, it works like a charm. Big props to all the contributers for delivering this!

Thanks smooth.

I was hoping to get around using Ubuntu because at the moment I have no monitor with an HDMI input, and SSH is not enabled by default on Ubuntu. Guess I'll be ordering an adapter.

I used a TV as a monitor to turn on ssh. It was ugly but it worked.

When this topic has 20,000 pages in 2019 I want it to be known that I was here from nearly the beginning on the illustrious "1337" page.

Understood. Greed is problematic. Where does the 'company' draw the line? 25%? Since the company seems seemingly transparent perhaps we can know the future plans?

I think you can make your own ubuntu distro anyway you want.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization

or any google of custom ubuntu distro

so, if your in windows (or mac), get a VM of ubuntu going just the way you want it, and then make an .iso . Burn that onto your rpi disk, then boom. ubuntu with ssh. ( in theory. I have yet to do this. Its on my to-do list)

edited to add this link:

http://customizeubuntu.com/tools/live-cd-tools/tools-build-your-own-ubuntu-distro/

because one of them lets you make an .iso of your entire existing run... so once you get your box all nice and stable, you can just make an .iso of the stable state and then if you ever do something that borks stuff, you could just recover that image. Or get the image working and spawn a bajillion cloud instances. Or ....
