I've been having this problem again trying to send XMR to ShapeShift.io and having the trade cancelled because the deposit doesn't get confirmed within 10 minutes. ShapeShift is again not recognizing the unconfirmed deposit transaction (as it does for any other coin) and therefore keeps the 10 minute timer ticking. Monero is also randomly (but frequently) not including my transactions in the next block, nor the block after that, etc ... for example this latest one has been in the unconfirmed transactions pool for 43 minutes and 19 blocks. Anybody know what's going on? Need some help with simplewallet here: I'm having an ongoing issue where outgoing XMR transfers do not make it into the next block, and sometimes not for several blocks. This wreaks havoc with ShapeShift because they cancel the transaction if your deposit if it's not confirmed in a block within 10 minutes. If Monero blocks are not nearly full like Bitcoin and miner fees are automatic, what else could it be? Example: [wallet]: transfer xxx........ Money successfully sent, transaction <xxx........> [wallet]: bc_height 1085653 [wallet]: bc_height 1085654 [wallet]: bc_height 1085655 [wallet]: bc_height 1085656 Height 1085656, transaction <xxx........>, spent xxx........
Why didn't that xfer get included in block 1085654 or 1085655? Thanks for the help! I don't know how to answer the question but I had a tx in block 1085656, I wasn't paying much attention but I was surprised it took a few blocks to get confirmed. My only guess is with the rapid increase in activity and hashrate over the past couple days there seems to be a lot of variance at the moment...two blocks found within seconds then 10 minutes between blocks: http://moneroblocks.info/Notice the tx per block is higher than average: http://moneroblocks.info/statsI'm sorry to hear that Shapeshift is not recognizing the payment as soon as it hits the tx pool. Use xmr.to. I have communicated with a Shapeshift dev on how to get the payment id from the tx pool but I guess they are too busy or something... You're not the only one. I gave up on shapeshift a while ago regarding Monero. Plus their customers service wasn't the best so said I'd avoid for the short term.

How much is the initial setup cost for operating 1 XMR node? Ongoing annual costs?
Is it possible to set this up on AWS?
You could probably do it not only on AWS but on a very cheap (free tier) AWS instance or any number of cheap VPS providers. Syncing may be a problem especially on the latter due to high CPU load but if you sync once elsewhere and transfer the database it should be fine, Or just run one at home, either on your regular computer or an old laptop. Unlike masternodes, XMR nodes do not require a static IP nor particularly high bandwidth at this point (in the future if and when things scale up that's a different story but for now it is easy).

Regarding your other issue, see: https://github.com/monero-project/monero/issues/1630Thanks for your reply. ShapeShift did eventually fix this issue (recognizing unconfirmed txs) on their end the last time I had this problem several months ago, but it appears to be broken again. I've traditionally used them rather than XMR.to because XMR.to's limit used to be so much smaller, but I see now they are more comparable. As for that other issue, it seems pretty serious. Am I understanding git correctly that this issue has been found and fixed but not pushed out in a new release yet? For the two txs of mine that were stuck last night when I posted this, it took HOURS to get confirmed into a block and the unconfirmed pool was up to around 75 txs, also for hours, until it eventually worked itself out.

Hi everyone I am pretty new to Monero but I already love it! I wanted to keep an eye the price and couldn't find an account on Twitter that that tweeted regular updates, so a friend and I made our own account that updates with the latest price every hour: https://twitter.com/XMRpriceIt's taken us a few weeks so if anyone reading this is brimming with XMR and finds this useful, a donation would be so welcome ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Thank you Gavin 4AG3WxJAWKB1bWejxxCcZbiTEzHS9mizz7GN9VHrWtqCaGRefk1CWTH1oNSD8R7hcPKci9MEvmGYHX7 QBMQHfadEM7s5jzD

I am offering a super-node hosting service: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1757389.00.1 BTC a year for the monero community. This is a node that is hosted on a high bandwith, high speed low latency server. This is a node which will have reliable uptime, but will also allow fast relaying of blocks to other peers if pools have a direct connection to the nodes. For any coin to be listed, I am looking for 0.1 BTC / year per coin. Currently we have a HODLCoin seed node hosted here, which is a great honor! If the monero community wishes to have a supernode hosted here, which will be kept updated with the latest software, please use this address which is kept track of. Once it reaches 0.1 BTC a supernode will be hosted. Feel free to read the topic and contact the HODLCoin developer for feedback. Server specification (I have multiples): Quad-Core Xeon, 4GB RAM, 160+GB HDD space, 1Gbps network per server. Monero supernode funding address: 3EvxxNfMFYNZePZSyJAMQjThdzkFMjrRHu Thank you!

You need to set up your router to port forward to the machine that you want to connect to. You also need to allow your daemon to accept remote connects (I think by default it only accepts connections from localhost). I don't think there are any privacy implications. Thanks for the reply. I'm somewhat networking illiterate so the concept of port forwarding escapes me. The following are the fields/settings under "Port Forwarding" in DD-WRT to be filled in/defined: Application: ? Protocol: TCP/UDP/Both (drop-down list) Source Net: ? Port from: 0 IP Address: 0.0.0.0. Port to: 0 Which ones go where? How do I set up the daemon to accept remote connects? Point to the workstation/pc running the monerod ./monerod --log-file bitmonerod.log --restricted-rpc --rpc-bind-ip 0.0.0.0
![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FzC5Ewqd.jpg&t=665&c=GdnAxaAR6m17yQ) Thanks. Further questions...if you don't mind: 1. Should I then use my-external-(WAN)-IP-address:18081 instead of localhost:18081 as the daemon address in Monero GUI to remotely connect? 2. Do both p2p server (18080) and rpc server (18081) ports have to be forwarded and enabled in order to remotely connect or just port 18081 (rpc server)? 3. What do "--log-file bitmonerod.log" and "--restricted-rpc" in your arg do?

For the two txs of mine that were stuck last night when I posted this, it took HOURS to get confirmed into a block and the unconfirmed pool was up to around 75 txs, also for hours, until it eventually worked itself out. I contacted them about this a week ago, and told them how to fix the problem. They said they have been prioritizing XMR issues this week, so if it is not yet fixed it should be soon. In the past, they solved this issue by parsing the payment ID out of the tx_extra in the daemon (a hacky method but there was not a way to get incoming unconfirmed transactions to your wallet via RPC until v10.1 - XMR.to was able to because they had customized their wallet). This parsing method did not work for them after the hard fork. Now it is possible to get unconfirmed transactions to your wallet by calling the 'get_transfers' method via RPC with the params {pool: true}. In monero-wallet-cli the command is 'show_transfers pool'.

Or just run one at home, either on your regular computer or an old laptop. Unlike masternodes, XMR nodes do not require a static IP nor particularly high bandwidth at this point (in the future if and when things scale up that's a different story but for now it is easy).
I've been doing just that for a long time and up until a few weeks ago I used to see a pin on this map: https://monerohash.com/nodes-distribution.html (only one with a node in my town) Now I don't see it anymore. I've checked the daemon and it seems to be doing fine, have even restarted it, just in case. How can I tell if it is actually part of the network, if I am helping Monero with my node, or just wasting energy and bandwidth?

I assume they can't monitor the whole network anymore, but fairly certain you are still on the network, as I know I am..
