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

[equipoise]

^The command is:

Code:

transfer <mixin_count> <addr> <amount> [payment_id]

<mixin_count> is the number of transactions yours is indistinguishable from (from 0 to maximum available)
[payment_id] is needed when you send to the exchanges and you get it from the particular exchange. It's not needed when you send to your wallet or someone else (except if he want to identify if this payment is from you and he'll then give you 64 characters payment ID.
Do not add '<', '>', '[' or ']' in the command.
Example (a valid transfer command, which will send 1 XMR to me with a PaimentID 'bzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzzbzz4'):

Code:

The following is quoted from ducknotes thread, since I am not mining other coin except xmr, I hope someone do mine all three coins to confirm the comparison below or make comment on that:


For those who can`t see differences from other cryptonote coins - look at source code, check % of orphans in the network, check % of "bad shares" on pools, you will see that duckNote is a winner. Like

24 hours of mining with the same mining software and hardware gives:
4% of bad shares on Monero
2% of bad shares on Bytecoin
0.5% of bad shares on duckNote.

Orphans in above networks 6/2/1.

That has to do with the pool aswell as if the admin has updated. Monerpool.com for me has 2 orphans in the last 150 blocks (1,3% orphans) .
Bad share variance depends on server location , vardiff , your internet connection and 100 different other parameters.
How big is your sample size ? 1-2-7-30 days ?

one neat feature is the aliasing. I'm not 100% sure, but I think you have to solo a block to create an alias, but once you do, you can have people send their coins to @username, rather than some superlong string of alphanumeric characters.

This is reference example of as I say 'shit-feature'. Just look at vericoin, how many shit features it has, especially their version of
'anonimity'.

Let's keep the discussion factual.  First of all, both teams are making real progress where it counts:

Boolberry has contributed numerous code-level fixes to the inherited code from Bytecoin that have been later incorporated by the XMR team.

XMR has contributed numerous code-level fixes to that same code that have been / will probably be incorporated by Boolberry.

Boolberry has a working, cross-platform GUI.  XMR will soon as well, with several candidates being worked on.

Boolberry's "non-shit" changes, in your parlance, center primarily around mechanisms to keep the blockchain smaller over time by allowing some of the ring signature information in old transactions to be pruned after a period of time, and improvements to the mixing function to provide stronger assurances of anonymity.

Monero has triggered an explosion of awareness of both XMR and the cryptonote family more generally by providing the first available non-80%-premined implementation of the bytecoin codebase.

"Trash-talking" either BBR or XMR is, at this point, counterproductive:  It's very clear from their market behavior that people buying these coins are viewing them together as the leading options from a very interesting new family of coins.  They're not dumping XMR to buy BBR, or the opposite -- they're selling BTC (or, hopefully, some actual "shit coin" - grin) and buying either or both of them.

There's a lot more to be gained in cryptonote progress by pushing forward both the underlying CryptoNote technology and seeing if the differing feature sets of XMR and BBR help lead to further technological progress than by sniping from sockpuppet accounts.

I don't undestand the mixin count what number i have to type? 0 or 5? I want to send XMR to Poloniex

the mixin is kind of the degree of anonymity, so unless you really want to be anonymous, just use mixin count=0; this will also make your transaction faster I think, the higher the mixin the longer the transaction might take.

The higher mixin_count won't make your transaction slower, but it'll make it bigger (regarding to size in bites, not the amount sent). Generally bigger transaction -> higher fee (only if you pass the current transaction size limit because of dust from pools and then you need to send it with 2 or more smaller transactions). Don't use 0 - use at least 1. I'm using 5 most of the times.

When i try to run bitmonrod on linux i get

Code:

./bitmonerod: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_system.so.1.55.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Anyone else experienced this? any idea what to do?

seems like your libboost installation is fucked up. Maybe try to reinstall?

there are SO many of these libboost libraries. which one do you have installed specifically if you dont mind me asking?

when i search apt-cache for libboost-system i get the following

Code:

libboost-system-dev - Operating system (e.g. diagnostics support) library (default version)
libboost-system1.53-dev - Operating system (e.g. diagnostics support) library
libboost-system1.53.0 - Operating system (e.g. diagnostics support) library
libboost-system1.49-dev - Operating system (e.g. diagnostics support) library
libboost-system1.49.0 - Operating system (e.g. diagnostics support) library
libboost-system1.54-dev - Operating system (e.g. diagnostics support) library
libboost-system1.54.0 - Operating system (e.g. diagnostics support) library

none of these are libboost_system.so.1.55.0

The higher mixin_count won't make your transaction slower, but it'll make it bigger (regarding to size in bites, not the amount sent). Generally bigger transaction -> higher fee (only if you pass the current transaction size limit because of dust from pools and then you need to send it with 2 or more smaller transactions). Don't use 0 - use at least 1. I'm using 5 most of the times.

I think I've heard that using mixin can lead to longer times for transactions, because you need to wait for other transactions with the same amounts to come into the mempool before it gets picked up in a block.

Also, why don't use 0? I use 0 all the time. I don't really care about anonymity, so why use more than 0?

This is not the case with XMR. This is the case with Bitcoin and clones mixing services. XMR is mixing directly with past transactions from the blockchain.

Do you want your dentist to know how much money you have so he could charge you more eventually? Do you want a concurrent business to know your balances and where you are spending your money (if your suppliers or contractors are also using 0)? Do you want someone to blackmail you knowing the exact balance of your wallet?

Edit: Privacy is a proper term instead of anonymity.

could someone help me?

About 2months ago i downloaded the cryptonote gui wallet, everything was fine... i then put my xmr wallet in cold storage... however i decided to update my wallet as i wanted to buy more and trade, however once i downloaded the new update my password seems to be changed

i had saved copies of password on offline drives, however as i tried to open my old wallet with the old and correct password it keeps saying invalid password

am i missing something?

i did the same update of quazarcoin with no issues it worked perfectly

thanks for all your help

Are you loading the wallet.keys file using simplewallet?

Be sure you place the [wallet].keys file in the same folder as simplewallet. Start it up in cmd, and use [wallet], it will ask for the password, and then rebuild the wallet file based on the keys file.

Make sure your using the keys file and not the wallet file

Are you loading the wallet using simplewallet?

right now i am trying to load it using simple wallet, although when i first created the password and carried on using it ..it was with the first Cryptonote gui wallet and not simple wallet..

i have made copies of all three files in wallet + saving password... my password used to work but now says invalid password and its the same password

any help would be much appreciated

[Patel]

Did you try loading it through the original cryptonote gui that you created it from?
