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

[Edgecrusher]

I must be doing something wrong... When I try to transfer more than 1 XMR I get this error msg. I'm using the right command (transfer 0 <Deposit Address> <amount> <Payment ID>) Any ideas?

Error: transaction <2c8673622b1b0197add13c336ed439ee3884252da11417b25bcb2794dde14f4b> is too big. Transaction size: 35187 bytes, transaction size limit: 24400 bytes

Thanks!

hey guys you know the website could be way better with just 1 days work... do you want me to make you something real quick?  

for example your contact form gets a 405 error, the price link pages looks pretty confusing, etc.

just let me know i can suck out the content and slap it into something nicer looking in a few hours that should hold you over.

i've done some of the websites for mastercoin which get pretty good conversions (50%+) on wallet downloads

pm me since i dont read this thread all the way through

Chat about it on the IRC

I hope this happens!  The self-ascribed core of seven people can't be good at everything, so it's crucial that they keep the tent open.  That website is absolutely awful in presentation and content.  There should be step-by-step instructions for installing the dependencies on every major operating system, not just 'oh this random guy behind this oblique link to a forum post was able to get it working on an ubuntu VM, maybe he can help you'.  If no single person can collate this information then use a wiki.

You're not doing anything wrong, but there is a limit on transaction size. You have received many small transactions thus your transaction will use very many inputs and in total it is above transaction limit. To fix this send smaller amounts. If you need to send exactly 1 XMR you could setup another wallet where you transfer funds first, e.g in increments of 0.1 XMR or whatever is the maximum you can send.

One more thing. Why aren't Monero Block Explorers searchable by the addresses? (only hash, transaction ID)...pretty inconvenient.

By design...true anonymity.

What you're calling inconvenience actually the privacy of CryptoNote:

- Untraceable payments
- Unlinkable transactions
- Blockchain analysis resistance

As far as i know this problem happen with small miners because they get too many dust transactions. Is there any plan to fix ? It's quite annoying.

So used to being able to search by an address that I totally left aside this little bit.

Also, switch to a smaller pool, so your payments are less frequent but larger in size.

Unfortunely most of miners tend to stick with pools which have less orphaned blocks, i.e. largest pools.

I think we need some tweaks at protocol level to prevent this problem with small miners.

Have you guys been browsing the GUI thread? the logo looks just plain awesome on some of the upcoming software

Something like 2/3 of all my withdrawals from poloniex are failing. Support doesn't seem to offer much help other than "try a smaller amount". It's an intermittent issue, in that sometimes a withdrawal of a given amount will work, and sometimes it won't. Just wondering if the Monero devs are working with Poloniex on this?

all my recent withdrawals from Polo this week went smoothly and automatically. I only had to request manual withdrawal for first two transactions which happened 2 weeks ago. A moderator on trollbox told me this is due to API of Monero, they can't do anything.

They could consolidate inputs systematically.  It is a silly workaround and will soon be unnecessary.

Is it possible to have a lightweight client for Monero?

[onemorebtc]

Is it possible to have a lightweight client for Monero?

you can consider simplewallet as a lightweight client (at least if you run your own server somewhere)

btw: how secure is connecting simplewallet to an untrusted server? i guess: they can lie about the chain but they dont have access to any money? can anyone confirm?

edit: i did it using putty: ssh tunneling the rpc port to an remote monero server

[dewdeded]

- Client and blockchain is still very light, IMHO.
- AFAIK, SPV clients (like MultiBit) or Server-Trusting Clients (like Electrum) are both possible, but not yet implemented. There is a alot of (brain &) dev work to do, before SPV clients will be possible/done.
(Thin Server-Trusting Clients are always possible with any coin, that has a public blockhain, secured by head hashes.)

Yes, its difficult, I've been doing a lot of work on my pool to eliminate problems and optimise it to reduce the orphan rate, but its hard to test with only a couple of KHs Hard to ask miners to move over when I cant guarantee a low orphan rate, need a run of lucky blocks or a lot of patience. Can accommodate user requests though, if someone wants a custom port with fixed difficulty perhaps?

Why is this coin such a low price at the moment? Seems to me it's superior to Darkcoin (nothing against Darkcoin - I own some). If DRK is worth ~10.50, XMR is worth at least $20 or more. My prediction for what it's worth is the price of this coin will skyrocket in the near future.

how can i copy/paste adress to simplewallet?
i dont want to write it by hand!

(win7)

Copy and in the cmd you can right click with the mouse, that should paste it.

First you have to open "Properties" of your command window...
And check "QuckEdit Mode"... this is unchecked by default.

Only then <right click with the mouse>... will paste what's in your clipboard.

did the trick!

Market supply is high. 23K new Moneros are generated every day. It needs to keep buy support at 230K USD in day to save rate at DRK level.

wrong, most of miners still hold their coins, hope so
basically: when get more buy support than mined coins price will go up, less buy support- price will go down
