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

[Keyboard-Mash]

Hey emontmon, do you want to try out the nice new GUI with me? Feedback is critical now that Bitkoot has put something out. I'm pretty sure you were using windows, so please let me know?

I can help you with it if you need help setting it up?

TFT: "I'm working on another good feature now, so stay tuned. "

Looks like soon BitMonero will no doubt another coin with great upgrades made by the dev. SO, MRO and BMR are two diff coins with two diff future. IMO, MRO may have a bright future in case devs would suggest new ideas. Now it looks like TFT has much more to suggest

I don't understand how this makes any sense.

Are you saying he follows through with intention and direction because to date he has not.

Theres nothing to understand, nothing he says makes sense and TFT said himself hes fine with the renaming to Monero.

I tested it. It seems to be working. It needs bitmonerod.exe and simplewallet.exe at the same folder as the GUI wallet or it crashes. If clause should be added to check if the executables are there and inform the user instead of crashing. I think an "Advanced" tab should be added where you can send your own commands to the wallet and the daemon, because in the current version you can't tell the daemon to start mining. There could be a checkbox in the "wallet log" and "miner log" to make the wallet and bitmonerod windows visible instead of adding "advanced" tab or if advanced tab is added those options should be there also (message in red for the user not to close them if they are visible).

Advanced commands are good but there should be a simple check box to turn on and off mining, maybe with a setting for number of threads.

Nice! I'll crosspost the feedback in the GUI thread. I agree that it would be nice to have a check that all the executables are present instead of crashing, as I ran into the same issue when I left the config file out (to which I would suggest creating a standard config file in the same directory if it's not present).

I wanted to try it on a different version of windows. I don't have 8, but do have vista. Also, would this work with 32 bit? I can try it on that as well. I'm about done doing what I can think of as far as usage goes, so I'll be moving onto the 3 other installs (if possible) then.

NoodleDooddle and I are organizing a giveaway atm. You can see the Blog post here. It would be rather nice, if we could merge the giveaways. We already collected >1000 MRO.

Also we need a news section in OP, so everybody not using the blog or reading all replies, also sees things, like the security fix or this giveaway

Okay sounds good.

I'm suspending the giveaway as of this post. If you already sent me a valid request, it will be honored. The remainder (84.999995 MRO) has been sent to the fund.

Awesome, GUI and an exchange! 

I was able to compile Monero with Intel C++ Compiler for linux, but got no improvement for 2nd generation optimizations. I'm going to test compiling with different settings soon.

Monero is up for voting on this site: https://www.swaphole.com/#!voting

It's a new exchange, so the level of reliability is unknown. But take a second and vote here or anywhere else you find MRO listed for more visibility.

Be careful guys, you can still vote for Dafuq coin there which is coin stealing trojan that forced one of the exchanges to cease trading, seems Swaphole doesn't care...

Is this only one dev who did all this?

I don't know if (part of) the bounty is open for everyone, but I have created a .NET based wallet. I started trying to use the RPC API of the daemon and simplewallet, but there are some large gaps in functionality covered by the API functions.

That is why I have create a wrapper around bitmonerod.exe and simplewallet.exe (filenames configurable in config file). It works by launching the simplewallet and daemon in the background and reading output and writing output to those processes. It should be relativly save, because it uses the widly used standard simplewallet and daemon.

It's targeted at windows, although it might be possible to port to Mono.NET (I have no experience with that). It should work with any of the bytecoin forks, but I have tested it with Monero.

It's up for testing, not full use from what I can see

[smooth]

Is this only one dev who did all this?

No. The original code code is from bytecoin and/or cryptonote (relationship between them is murky) who are or were some unknown number of developers. No one really knows, as they operate in secret. This is a non-premined fork which is a decentralized community project with several developers working on various things including the new GUI, pools, and exchanges.

Coming up on difficulty 10 million!

I have to say with pools and GUIs and exchanges this is all getting pretty exciting!
