New Digital Currency Spikes After Giving Criminals More Secrecy

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-08-29/new-digital-currency-spikes-after-giving-criminals-more-secrecy

Consider suing Bloomberg News for tortious libel, causing grevious loss of substance.  A class action suit, anyone?

The article is actually quite even handed and positive in many regards.

The headline on the other hand... ...

If someone was using it - moneroprice.i2p is online again after a ~month off. There are some visible data glitches, but I'll fix it when I have some time.

Will monero be challenged by classic? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1600638


Unlikely with the size of monero currently

Interestingly Monero Classic may already have some serious legal and regulatory problems. Starting with copyright infringement and regulatory issues with FinCEN in the Untied States for starters.  

Much of this research is done by the Monero Classic Research Lab.

Congrats on forming your own research lab! Please note, though, that you will need to correctly attribute publications from the Monero Research Lab to them, you cannot reattribute them to yourself.

There may also be similar regulatory requirements in other jurisdictions.

If you think Monero is going to save you, you are wrong.  You will be found and killed, wherever you are.

Hello,

I lost my password of my wallet ¿ what can i do ?

If you have the seed you can restore the wallet and bypass the password, if not...

I dont know whats is the seed. I was mining this coin 2 years ago. I had 42 xmr

Oh, wallet that old might not have a seed. There's nothing you can do if you can't remember password. There are wallet recovery services that can try to crack it, but you have to have some idea of what password might have been.

Thanks for the information. I think i lost my XMR  :-((((

Please help:(

My mother who doesnt know how to use monero very well wanted to exchange monero to bitcoin but instead of doing it correctly through an exchange site, she put the bitcoin wallet address into the monero send address so she basically sent monero to a bitcoin address within her monero account which means the bitcoin address was recognised as a monero address...

Is there any way the coins can be recovered with the transaction ID from the overview page?

Thanks so much for helping in advance!!!!!

I told her explicitly not to do it I have no idea how the heck she pulled that off
but she told me she put the address of the bitcoin wallet to the send address of the monero account and the balance of monero went down...
what could have happened there ? is there anyway to recover the sent coins or is there any way to recover sent coins with monero in general?
I know you could have recover coins if it was sent thru shapeshift or other exchnage platform but i have no experience with just mymonero transactions.

What did she send with ?Simple wallet? mymoneo? The address types are so different It isn't possible.

She used mymonero. I am in shock right now.

Your story sounds far out but I'll act in good faith.

Look there is no way the monery left her private key. Start with re-scanning the blockchain on mymonero. If that doesn't work well have to figure out how to derive a spend key from the mymonero seed and import that into simplewallet. The funds aren't gone because they couldn't have gone to a bitcoin address. Heck they don't even start with the same prefix. Bitcoin addresses begin with 1 and monero addresses begin with 4.

I'm not to proud to admit I had to google that. Meant what I thought.

Thanks for the reply! I m sorry I dun quite understand what to do though because I m actually only a bit better than my mother on these things like I know how to buy and exchange and that's all.... I dun think I know the things u mention above. are those things difficult to do? Is the MyMonero platform generally able to return coins?
