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

[smooth]

I'm on Arch too, and while it's in the repos, I shouldn't need it to fix a bug in a program, as the devs should be doing that.

Let me explain how this works. The devs' salary is....are you ready for it?......zero dollars and zero cents (or if you prefer zero moneros).

You are just as eligible to submit fixes to github as anyone else.

Throwing mud at the volunteer developers for not prioritizing what you think should be prioritized (and can easily be worked around with a standard utility) won't win you any style points.

Anyone knows how many coins there are? Couldn't find the explorer.

cheers

number of blocks*17.2 . Something around that.

This is the only info I am able to find about current supply. Can anyone confirm this?

That's about right. The reward started at something like 17.5 now its down to about 16.9

Thank you both.

I'm not saying the devs don't deserve a pat on the back for their work thus far. But they released alpha software. It's full of bugs. Not like some small oversight, but HUGE bugs.

I agree. The merged mining stuff has been a disaster for example (wallet breaking bugs twice).

I don't understand why you are focusing on the one bug that has an easy and essentially complete work around though.

Any rational prioritization puts bugs with a workaround below bugs without one. That has been done here. Every time there has been a serious bug (i.e. merged mining breaking wallets twice, or a poor implementation of checkpointing being exploited), there was a fix pushed out very quickly.

Seriously, the devs are doing the best they can. If you can contribute to doing better, great. If not then appreciate what they do or move on to another coin. Repeatedly sniping at them here over relatively minor issues is getting old.

Noone ever said this isnt alpha software. Hell bitcoin is still in beta after 5 years... Thats how open source software works....you release it and slowly community makes the software better... This is not a bitcoin clone!

I'm not focusing on that bug, I addressed it because someone else brought it up. If I was going to bitch constantly about one thing, it would be NOT FUCKING COMPILING ON LINUX.  

Okay I missed that one (it does compiler for me on Ubuntu). Can you be more specific?

And now that deep web services are under attack...

Tell me more, please.

[eddywise]

nethash and diff rise so quickly
when will the pool being launched

[raindex]

Does anyone know how to extract private key out of wallet?

And, if it's at all possible, how to create a wallet having a private key?

[David Latapie]

Give me just a minute. I'll attempt to compile it yet again and then post the results.

Could you give me the list of command you used, so that I can try to replicate on my machine?

Ideally a long oneliner (with && to separate commands).

Thanks.

Okay, one feature we REALLY need in simplewallet is a command history buffer. It doesn't have to be persistent; it can start with an empty buffer every time. Having to retype things kinda sucks. And I automatically press the up arrow and get garbage that I have to erase.

Duly noted, you are not the only one to wish for it!

Use rlwrap

$ rlwrap ./simpleminer --wallet mywallet

Thanks!

You incorrectly credited me on the website (it was smooth). Also, it should be ./simplewallet not ./simpleminer.

Here you are. I copied the whole thing, not just the relevant bits, in case I would have missed something: http://pastebin.com/Nc5XrpEH

Wow. Just... wow. I did a "make clean", then tried "make build-debug" just for fun... I think the devs failed so hard they won: http://pastebin.com/c9X2H7a9

Try with gcc 4.8.x.  4.9.0 is pretty hot off the presses...

Hopefully in 2-6 hours. 

You can mine on Ubuntu 12.04

I should mention it is an alpha pool.

Is there any way to see what the distribution of this coin is?

Outdated compiler (it doesn't seem to support -std=c++11). Update to a newer g++.

Is there any way to see what the distribution of this coin is?

No, it's anonymous (which is the point ). A separate public key is generated for each input and they're difficult to link by blockchain analysis.

I know in CryptoNote technology, blockchain formats between Windows and Linux systems differ.
But is this the case with the wallet file formats? I couldn't open a wallet file created with Ubuntu  in a Windows environment.
Also I  want to know if this applies to Bitcoin-Qt software (blockchain, wallet file). Thanks.
