[aamarket]

I have couple ideas about GUI as well, are there any guidelines how to start funding properly ?

Deleting the contents means deleting everything including the wallets. I understand to back up but are we to delete everything?

The preceding question was brought to you by the resident computer idiot.

The wallet it is not stored in there.
It is, where the simplewallet.exe is (it is the .keys file).
Alternatively, you can use the Mnemonic Seed words to restore it.

First make sure the daemon is all synched up. Then run simplewallet with the flag

Code:

--restore-deterministic-wallet

Once your wallet is restored you may need to refresh or rescan the blockchain depending.

Thats from memory. If I didn't get all the details right I'm sure I atleast pointed you in the right direction. Remember you can almost always run a CLI application with the flag --help for help.

Can anyone give me some free monero ?  

Never seen or came across monero faucets, if anyone know better to have them listed here to grab few monero. As monero seem to be capable of making same history as bitcoin over few years.  

back in 2014 when monero was born there was a user on here ... thefunkybits maybe? who was giving way XMR for twitter tweets and such, but that's all I have ever seen.

Now monero is going to be a powerful altcoin and they have got a good fame so now they do not need to distribute free monero for their promotion and any other service for the project etc.

sorry but i did not know a lot off monero(xmr) , all i know is that i had a computer with monero on it , but it is gone a long time ago ( with my monero ) and now installed a new wallet on my new comp  and found this evening a paper with 24 worths and monero written on it

but when i open the simplewallet it ask's for a wallet file name but all i have is the 24 worths

so , is it possible to get back the amount when you only have the 24 worths???

New Monero Version: 0.10.0 "Wolfram Warptangent"

https://github.com/monero-project/monero/releases

Awesome! And the below seems to be an important detail:

Updating: Blockchain Conversion

Due to the space savings and performance gains it is again highly recommended that you delete the contents of your Monero working directory and sync from scratch. This directory can be found in ~/.bitmonero on Linux and OS X, and on Windows in \Users\username\AppData\Roaming\bitmonero or \ProgramData\bitmonero.

Deleting the contents means deleting everything including the wallets. I understand to back up but are we to delete everything?

Working directory is just where the blockchain is located. You can just copy your wallet files over to the new folder which contains the 0.10 version.

We can make a deal

I thought this was the deal 

I agree.
I am moving up to Altcoin Marketplace.

Please vote on supporting 2FA wallet services.

Eventually, XMR might benefit too 

"I'm too poor to get robbed" 
2FA ia always a good option, and don't forget to print the codes to avoid trouble in the future kids

Hello, I want to start Monero XMR GUI, i can do it in about 2-4 weeks based on https://github.com/cryptonotefoundation/cryptonotewallet. I want to receive 9700 XMR for it to buy monero.org domain and move my pool pool.monero.org there. Please tell me how can i start fund raising campaign here https://forum.getmonero.org/8/funding-required My goal is 9700XMR, but after fund raising will reach first 1000 XMR i will immediately start GUI development and after that moment i claim i can do it for 2-4 weeks.
P.S. I can`t start funding here https://forum.getmonero.org/8/funding-required by myself

You want, at current rates, around $100,000 for two to four weeks work? That's a bit steep, don't you think?

Updated && downloading blockchain ^^

2 hours fully synced (20Mb shitty connection). From 10Gb to 7.5Gb. Great job.

Why bother funding it when its better and in the best interest to wait patiently for the official one.

Does monero mnemonic seed not use the standard bip39 word list?

Is this a real conversation, or is this guy just trolling?

That is so strange. I never would have even guessed there were two standards so similar to each other floating around. This seems dumb. This community should probably just settle on a standard.

I may have just done an hours worth of tedious work for nothing.
