Hello monero,
I have following question. Is it possible to open blockchain.bin (I use win7, so mine is located in %appdata%/roaming/bitmonero) with some database tool ? I would like to extract all relevant info from blockchain.bin, like difficulty, height, ... and make my own graphs for research. I would like to know if this is possible so I don't have to rely on an API (like monerochain.info's API). I also wonder how one can know the network's hashing rate. Do you have to calculate it from the difficulty at every blockheight, or is there some other way ?
Thx.
You can type "diff" into bitmonerod and this will give you difficulty and estimated hashrate. Estimated hashrate = difficulty / 60

why is there a folder called bitmonero, monero sounds way fucking better.
the name of the coin is monero, it just inherited the bitmonero folder and bitmonerod.exe from the first version. It will change soon.

Not yet. IIRC team is working on some database nature of blockchain. But you can explore every block and build your own database for research. OK, thx for the info.

To Monero devs and enthusiasts.
Do you think there is a reputable and trustworthy individual among you who would be interested to set up an exchange buro of Moneros on the NXT Asset Exchange? I noticed, not many centralized exchanges are willing to create XMR/BTC trading pairs, due to Monero differences in software from Bitcoin forks.
NXT AE allows someone to operate as an exchange buro and profit from setting the price of an asset and charge redemption commissions.
Since I really like NXT, this catches my attention. I will consider it. Poloniex is down, can't trade  Really need to add Monero on to NXT AE to keep trading live 24/7, that will boost demand. These centralized exchanges are so unreliable.

Is there a fundamental problem in Monero system and pool implementation on minergate.com ? In last 20h all blocks found there have rewards between 0.3 and 2.5XMR This is absurd to be claimed for "bad luck" Take a look https://minergate.com/pool-stats/mro

It's more like outdated pool software, is it not? I recall a fix from earlier on, that addressed this precise issue. ~ Myagui

I noticed quite a few small reward blocks popping up, figured someone was running a pool server with the pre-8.8.1 fix daemon. Must be frustrating to miss out on all that MMR.
The bitmonerod daemon can use a lot of bandwidth when syncing the blockchain but it shouldnt be that bad in normal use unless you are running as a full node when it can get a bit busy. The "Resource Monitor" in Win7/8 is good for showing you exactly what bandwidth the deamon is using and all its connections but Windows users dont have a lot of options for controlling the bandwidth a process uses without 3rd party software. If you have a good firewall on your Internet connection that may be able to rate limit the daemon traffic for you, but its not something I could produce a tutorial on.

Currently donating all of our 1% pool fee to the dev fund - mine at CryptonotepoolUK and support XMR at no extra cost!

Just opened new pool (0% fee) feeleep Guys - we found 9 blocks today (I know its not many but it was with great luck). Put part of your hashes on my pool to help us more!

haha! Tell me about it man! Last night I was having a libboost_filesystem 1.55 nightmare spiced up with icu package version conflict just because someone thinks it's "more convenient" to have a linux binary instead of a source code on simplewallet. Simple my ass... Please would someone put source code of simple wallet out there ...

I find the wallet syncing not only to take a ridiculous amount of time downloading less than 80 megs for 24h~ worth of blochain updates, but it makes the interent connection unusable, and with unusable - I mean exactly that, it strugles to load a simple google front page. What exactly is going on when it needs 45 mins + to download less than 80 megs, that is some serious skill to get it to complely hog up my 2mbit connection, yet not actually utilizing the available download bandwidth to actually DL the block chain in a reasonable amount of time.

You can download latest blockchain files here http://monero.cc/downloads/index.html then sync missing blocks quickly.

Switch to a better pool.

I've tried to run Monero binaries on my mac, it turned out that my Mac need to install additional library. Is there anyway to make OSX version easier to use as Windows version, just download the binaries and run ? dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libboost_system-mt.dylib Referenced from: /Users/XXXX/Desktop/monero.mac.x64.latest/./simplewallet Reason: image not found Trace/BPT trap: 5
