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

[moli1]

Monero price is bleeding losses of over 7% during trading yesterday.
Monero has descended over 65% from its highs in 2017 printed at $475.

price over this year, during times of heavy selling pressure, catches large buying interest within the $155-175 range.

on the other hand, XMR price could be about to fall after a Canadian bank declared it would no longer allow customers to purchase cryptocurrencies using Interac debit cards, it has emerged.

decision taken by the Canadian bank follows moves taken by Denmark’s largest bank (Danske Bank) that recently published a statement urging its customers to (refrain from investing in the field) of cryptocurrencies.

No it's integrated, just open up a command window and type "bash" and widows will download and install Ubuntu.

Has anyone run monerod on Windows Subsystem for Linux (Ubuntu)?

Subsystems?! What the hell are you talking about 

You can run Linux applications on Windows, for almost two years now: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Subsystem_for_Linux

So basically you can get the worst of both worlds now! Adding the the security and stability issues and privacy violations of windows into linux. Makes no sense to me the reason to goto linux is to get rid of the entire M$ trap that most have been forced into. So whats the Linux under windows Blue Screen look like? does it have a penguin?

I think it was really nice of M$ to release this as closed source so that we can have full confidence that it has not been tampered with in any way and hence our data is surely safe from prying eyes.

Like a VM ?

From the link I read it looks like they wrote their own closed source linux kernel from scratch. W00pie!

Protip, don't be an idiot and do this.

Protip, don't be an idiot and do this.

There are different distributions on it that you can choose from. I'm using Ubuntu, which is what they originally made available. I don't have a dedicated Linux machine that I can use as a node -- I use a Windows machine that I need Windows on for another purpose, hence not being able to move the whole thing over to Linux.

The reason I'm trying to do this is that there's a bug I've been running into on the latest *Windows* build of monerod, causing it to crash, so this is a backup option until that gets fixed, given that the upgrade is happening soon and I can't use a previous version of monerod. So far, it looks like monerod at least functions on Windows Subsystem for Linux (Ubuntu).

Based on my testing yesterday on Windows Subsystem for Linux, it was successfully downloading blocks, and I tested connecting a wallet machine through RPC, and that worked.
The only thing I'm not sure on, is whether outside nodes are seeing my node to connect to (my Windows node was working with the port forwarded). This is supposed to work in WSL, but people have run into some bugs with previous versions of it. Based on what I know, it doesn't look like you can open the port per Linux application in Windows Firewall, so you have to open up 18081 for all applications. It does look like monerod is detecting UPnP on the router to run p2p. I'm not sure that the network stack is stable, though, as I just checked, and the node may have dropped all of its seeding connections at some time in the last couple of hours, as it had zero connections and had gotten behind on the block count. At least it's not explicitly crashing like the Windows monerod.exe was. I've restarted it, and it's downloading those blocks now.

WSL creates a mount of the C drive, so, to access the program, as well as if you need to customize any file locations for the blockchain or logs, you just have to use the mounted directory path, as follows. For example, I put the monero binaries in a subdirectory of the default data location, called "monero-linux", for now:

cd /mnt/c/ProgramData/bitmonero/monero-linux
./monerod <with all your regular configuration variables>

Then run it in a VM at the very least, Right now M$ has Pwned all ur bases.

Only 7 blocks have been found yet. You're probably looking at the alternative chain.
