please report if this works for cpu miner allso!

Does my proxy port need to match the mining address port? And will someone please describe what botnet means?

Does my proxy port need to match the mining address port?

no, choose port u want
set miner 127.0.0.1:1234  (1234 or port u want, then set same port to proxy)
pool adress you want to miner
your adress to dev fee

u are good to go!

Because Bitcoin is traceable and only quasi anonymous, with mass surveillance a real thing it makes sense if you want to transact privately. Dont forget with good blockchain forensics by just paying for a small thing p2p someone can identify your general wealth etc. Dont get me wrong there are plenty of ways to mitigate the problem but from a general ease of use POV if its anon by default its generally just better.

Thats the great thing, I agree that it will be great for private transactions and in a P2P world without banks a lot of day to day transaction will become private. But it can do both, it can be great as an anon day to day currency lending the general population a modicum of privacy and well suited to the private transactions you speak of.

An interesting thought for me has been the idea that there are some financial transactions or even legal instruments where it benefits and protects both parties for it to be publicly provable.

Your honor, I claim cAPSLOCK did not send me 300 bitcoins for my used Lambo! 

I am sorry Mr Goat, I can see right here on my phone where cAPSLOCK indeed send 300 bitcoins from his address to your address.  Please give him the keys and transfer the title on the blockchain using counterparty.

That's why we should consider monero type of currency the bitcoin complement and not it's competitor, If and when they could become somehow conjugated..

Monero becoming the equivalent of Bitcoin would be it being as a "parallel" chain alongside Bitcoin's. So wherever bit coin is accepted, so would Monero, whatevers bitcoins price is, so would be moneros, etc etc. Monero would be the chain that offers anonymity, bitcoin would be the chain that offers regular transactions.

Bitcoin as bank transfer alternative, Monero as cash alternative ?

One of the nxt guys is thinking about piggy backing onto of monero inorder to bring anonymity to nxt. Basically he will run an automated system where users will be able to buy tokens on the asset exchange representing monero. redeem the assets for monero. send the monero to the other party. he will exchange the monero for tokens. then sell the tokens on the asset exchange for nxt.

That should de-anonymize the transaction pretty effectively.

How? You dont need to deliver the actual public address to the server. You can simply calculate the 1 time address client side and transmit that to the server. The server its self wouldnt know who you were sending the monero to. And on the other side of the transaction, when you turn the monero back into tokens, they wouldnt be able to gather where it had come from on that side either.

I guess there is some risk since often the server would be receiving coins that it had very recently sent out. They could deduce some information there because of this. Its still just a thought experiment at this point. Constructive feedback definitely welcome.

this seems a great coin, but CPU/GPU 1:1 is really a problem, those with GPUs won't be interested in it.

GPU's for Monero are more than 20x more efficient at mining than CPU's...

Since when?

[5w00p]

My rigatoni:
OS: Windows 8.1

intel i7 4770 @ stock speeds [3.4GHz, up to 3.9 Max Turbo](4 threads): ~166 H/s -- Wolf0's minerd.exe
PNY nVidia GeForce GTX 750Ti OC [+81MHz Core, +189MHz Memory]   : ~274 H/s -- tsiv's ccminer.exe

274/166 =  1.65 , so comparing these 2 mainstream processors, running in Windows, GPU is 1.65 times faster than CPU

How can I set the username/password for the wallet for solomining? I can only set the rpc-bind-port in the conf file.

Hi noob question, in order not to make a mistake when I want to transfer funds, is there a way to cut and paste addresses into simplewallet?
