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

[bathrobehero]

For solo mining in the daemon enter:

Code:

start_mining N

N - number of threads
You could use 'help' in the daemon to see all the commands (in the wallet too).

Thanks, but I want to use GPU miner which requires login information.

The GPU miner doesn't support solo mining yet. You can create a private pool for it if you want.

The username is your Monero address and the password is not used by the pool, so use 'x' for password to connect to the (private) pool.

what will happen if i delete simplewallet.log which is 100gb from my wallet folder?Do i loose all?

nothing, you should delete it from time to time, only if you created a new wallet recently the seed is also saved there, other than that nothing useful for the common user.

I have my seed stored in multiple safe locations.  Am I correct to assume it would be ok to delete the log file aka text document?

Also should the bitmonerod text document be deleted from time to time?  

Thank you, the drooling masses

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

Intel i7 4770 @ stock speeds is more than 300 H/s with yam M7v

I'm having a hard time breaking 200 h/s using M7v-win64-haswell on my i7 4770k
using the configuration files suggested in the readme.

Do you have HugePages enabled? Did you configure CPU config? Are you running 4 threads? Breaking 300 H/s on 4770k shall be trivial with yam M7v - many ppl did that. Post more details on your specific setup so I can check what is going wrong in your case.

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..

Exactly. That's why it will succeed; because it doesn't compete, it complements. XMR's competition is 1) other Cryptonote coins 2) bitcoin-based mixers (including bitcoin-based anon coins like DRK)
Notice I did not say "threat"; I just said competition. Being the competition doesn't prevent you from leaving it in the dust

Bitcoin as bank transfer alternative, Monero as cash alternative ?

Very nice analogy!

Cash does have serial numbers, don't forget.

Let's say it is a nice catchphrase, even though like most catchphrase, it has limitation. So yes, monero is the cash of cryptocurrency - the coins, not the serial-numbers-encumbered-notes.

The one is XMR

I am running windows, so I don't get the speed increases available under linux.  I wonder if a VM could be utilized?

I have seen 200+ (~220 max), but it was inconsistent.  I have settled on where it's at with 4 threads because it is steady and keeps the CPU utilization about 50%, leaving the rest open for running the desktop, apps, what have you.

HugePages speedups and thread pinning are available on Win64 as well. Check finetuning-bcn.txt and hugepages-win64.txt for details.

Generally on i7 4770k you shall run

yam.exe -c yam-xmr.cfg -c win64-i7-4770.cfg -t 4

And check after start it does not complain that it can not allocate hugepages memory.

It is really critical that you use both coin and CPU config for best perf on Win64.

Wow, diff is rising, dudes. It seems SETI@Home admins realised that aliens can wait...

I tested this procedure carefully on four different Sandy-Bridge and Haswell machines (Win7 x64), but hugepages are not available... is there another way of making Windows activate hugepages - and to verify this?

Nice pool. Clear getting started links, all info in one web page.

Just recommend you to advance your built-in-web-page mining calculator, with direct $/day computing & short mining hardware comparision table.

Maybe try the info detailed in this Yam thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=660758.0

Evidently it is called Lock Pages in Windows. Guy says he followed this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190730.aspx

Mycelium wallet is coding an implementation of HD including support of multiple coins:

https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0044.mediawiki

"One master node (seed) can be used for unlimited number of independent cryptocoins such as Bitcoin, Litecoin or Namecoin. However, sharing the same space for various cryptocoins has some disadvantages.
This level creates a separate subtree for every cryptocoin, avoiding reusing addresses across cryptocoins and improving privacy issues.
Coin type is a constant, set for each cryptocoin. Cryptocoin developers may ask for registering unused number for their project."

XMR devs, please contact Mycelium devs soonest.

Potentially amazing, though a bit more work than most coins, but doable. Perhaps a bounty?

Oh my god. The ability to buy Monero for cash would be amazing.
This is exactly what a crypto need to be totally anonymous.

Wow, no wonder this coin is so profitable to mine (3x any other major coin).

It's not possible to mine with any older Nvidia cards, and I also failed to get any CPU miner outside "easy-miner" going
