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

[dEBRUYNE]

There is something to be fixed in the Monero GUI-wallet. At least in the Linux version.

Only way to open the GUI is to type ./start-gui.sh in command line. Too complicated for many people. There must be an icon to click.

When the GUI is shut down, the flag and language selection box still remains open. It must be shut down from the ubuntu desktop launch menu by right clicking the Monero logo. Too complicated for many people. The GUI must be able to shut down by just one click.

When the GUI is shut down on full screen mode, the flag and language box which still remains open, is on full screen mode too, so the ubuntu desktop launch menu and the Monero logo in it, is not reachable. So it cannot be right clicked and shut down. Only way is to open the wallet again, switch of the full screen mode, shut down the wallet and right click the Monero logo in the launch menu. Too complicated.

Pease fix these.

Could you perhaps post screenshots to illustrate your second and third point? The GUI should normally close fully if you click on the x (right top), hence my question. Furthermore, the GUI is displayed in a single window / screen, i.e., the flag and language selection box / screen is not a separate window.

Ok. The problem can be avoided by clicking x on the right top. Everything shuts down at once.

I have closed the wallet by selecting "Settings" and "Close wallet". That way the flag and language selection box remains open which has to be shut down via the ubuntu launch menu. Most people have used that first one. So there is no problem white this one. The "Close wallet" is there just to shut down the wallet so the user can open an other wallet from the flag and language selection box. That is fine.

Anyway. When the "Settings" and "Close wallet" is done, on full screen mode, it would be better that the flag and language selection box would not appear in full screen mode. So that the ubuntu launch menu is visible and the flag and language box could be shut down there.

I´m looking to buy some XMR. Does Binance still allow
withdrawals up to 2 BTC (or the equivalent in another crypto)
without requiring KYC? Any other exchange that is recommended
for buying XMR?

According to Coinmarketcap HitBTC is the exchange with the most volume,
but to be honest they seem pretty sketchy and the exchange subforum at Bitcointalk
is full of scam accusations against them.

Please dont buy at HitBTC, they are a Pain in the *** when it comes to withdrawing funds.

Until now I've had no major issue with them, check their System Health page and also their fees

One thing I'm sure, if you need some assistance from HitBtc side you're f*****

Monero is like a savings account with a better rate of return than any traditional fiat bank account

Not really, you don't get any interest for holding onto Monero.

You dont get much interests for holding your fiat in the bank either once you cut off the inflation.

2 BTC seems a lot nowadays without verification. I do remember Huobi allows you some small amount monero daily withdrawals without any verification's.   But in general if you want to avoid verifications use https://xmr.to/  or other this type exchanges.

looks like the bull market is on the return? Monero is one of few coins that spike in price recently, solid project with excellent track of record

[Techray]

Hello, can any one say, why XMR price goes up? Any reason for it like some update, meting, release or smth.. or it is juts ALT coin rebound?

Most altcoins have rebounded. But they are led by Monero.

Just go Binance imo. As of today, no KYC needed for daily transactions up to 2 BTC (as of yesterday for me, not that I have that kind of coin to worry about it!).

Unless you're planning on buying a truck load of monero, 2 BTC a day is probably plenty!

Ah I see. The purpose of the Close wallet button / feature is basically to close the current wallet, not to close the whole GUI program. As such, you will be back in the wizard, where you can first select a language and subsequently create a new wallet, create a new wallet from a hardware device, restore a wallet from the mnemonic seed or keys, or open a different existing wallet.

Any kind. But you will have different efficient rate depending on suitability of hardware for XMR mining.
Usually with mining calculators. One is here: https://www.cryptocompare.com/mining/calculator/xmr?HashingPower=100&HashingUnit=H%2Fs&PowerConsumption=0&CostPerkWh=0&MiningPoolFee=1

I think it is better to join pool yes. Because you get reward if you find block solution or not. So it is more stable income.
You can try solo mining with official Monero GUI. At least you could when I tried few months ago.

You can join this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=653467.1060 -> [XMR] Monero Mining for more explanations.

The idea of anonymity, which is embedded in the platform of this coin, is now also advanced. But, it seems to me that the platform engine is somewhat outdated.

I read that Changelly requires KYC sometimes, which is a big
disadvantage for me. I´ll go with Binance now, because the 2 BTC
limit for unverified accounts is still available and that is enough for me.

Buying XMR at an exchange that does KYC kind of defeats the purpose
of using a private cryptocurrency like Monero in the first place.

Yea. The current wallet can also be shut down by pressing Esc. I think that is unnecessary, and even a problem since it can be pressed accidentally.

What people think about it?

When Kovri is put into service, what will happen to this map?
https://monerohash.com/nodes-distribution.html

Will there still be those points, but in random locations?


Anyway. Are those blue points indicating precise location? How precise they are? What are those balls with random number?

Cryptopia is also a good address for accumulating XMR 

Yes and No. In the sense of anonymity almost every email address is compromising your anonymity if you have the tools for that. KYC and AML regulations are good for crypto in whole to get rid of the "darknet" and "criminal" touch of crypto, as long as we have not to face some shitty exchanges as circle poloniex, which are freezing your account for nothing.

I wish there would exist an xmr.to in the other direction aswell, that would make life a lot easier
