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

[AceCobra1]

Why is the coin suddenly rebounding back today ?

Because of the news. Didn't you read the news? The market only ever moves on the news.

/thread

lol, no didn't hear the news... what happened? I have been mining for like the last month or so... All I know is the price went down to 250k satoshi then I thought might need to mine something else but couldn't be arsed moving my miners so kept at it and i was like wtf... price rebounded... I am holding almost 500 XMR so hopefully its worthwhile

Guess the sarcasm flew right over your head 

Price was low, demand increased, price went up, simple.

A number of factors, good progress being made to the core code. David did a great interview where he hinted at the redesigned wesbite and the much anticipated official gui. The price was generally very low and the sell side had almost dried up in terms of asks. Some of the bigger player wanted a bigger stash. Etc etc

Need help here. I can't run the new rpcwallet from here https://github.com/Neozaru/bitmonero/tree/integ after I started bitmonerod

Initializing RPC server
Binding on 127.0.0.1:18080
abstract_tcp_server2.inl:468 Exception at [boosted_tcp_server<t_protocol_handler>::init_server], what=bind: Address already in use
http_server_impl_base.h:68 Failed to bind server
wallet_rpc_server.cpp:617 Failed to initialize wallet rpc server

Also, is there a list of RPC commands for simplewallet or rpcwallet?

Ain't there any Linux 32 bit wallet? I couldn't find one.

Hi guys!
I got acquainted to use bitcoins and to trade them at different exchanges. But I see, XMR is growing up for now. So I would like to use this currency.
I'm not a tech guru, so I have some problems.
While using Bitcoins, I got acquainted to Blockchain wallet. Sure, it doesn't support XMR. So I had to create a new one.
So, I read getting started: http://monero.cc/getting-started/#wallet
And looked through this thread. Sorry it is too big to go through all of it.
In getting started is written:
Create a wallet with this command line.
cd ~/bitmonero/build/release/src && ./simplewallet --generate-new-wallet wallet.bin
I'm trying, but nothing goes.

That's why I registered on this forum board. I use Win8. Thank you. Help me to start with XMR, please.

These commands are for linux (unix syntax). You can do the dos equivalent : see the tutorial : https://monerotalk.org/t/bounty-create-a-useful-tutorial-on-how-to-setup-monero-closed/13/4

My opinion : for windows, you should use one gui wallet (qt or .net), with embedded wallet.

1. Download binaries for you system.
2. Open "bitmonerod.exe", this will download blockchain.
3. Open "simplewallet.exe", for creating wallet.

You can start immediately, dont have to wait to download all blockchain.

This may help a little more https://monerotalk.org/t/bounty-create-a-useful-tutorial-on-how-to-setup-monero-closed/13/8

Sorry, but I can't understand where to download wallet.

[Brad_BCK]

I downloaded this one:
http://monero.cc/downloads/monero.win.x64.latest.zip

Here I have files:
- bitmonerod.exe
- connectivity_tool.exe
- simpleminer.exe
- simplewallet.exe

What to do with them??
Where to unpack them?

Unpack them to wherever you like then create a bacth file with this in it

Code:

@echo off

tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq bitmonerod.exe" 2>NUL | find /I /N "bitmonerod.exe">NUL
if not %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 (
  echo Starting node...
  start /MIN bitmonerod.exe
) else (
  echo Node already started.
)

tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq simplewallet.exe" 2>NUL | find /I /N "simplewallet.exe">NUL
if not %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 (
  if exist wallet.bin.keys (
    echo Starting previous wallet...
    start simplewallet.exe --wallet wallet.bin
  ) else (
    echo Starting new wallet...
    start simplewallet.exe --generate-new-wallet wallet.bin
  )
) else (
  echo Wallet already started.
)

And save that batch file in the same folder as your others (bitmonerod etc). Then simply doubt click the batch file.

Here are some more short instructions:

A) If you prefer a GUI wallet you could use the non official Windows GUI wallet from the OP (first post in this thread).

B) If you could handle the command line wallet (it's easy - just try it) here are short instructions:

1) Download the Windows 64 bit binaries from the OP (first post in this thread)
2) Extract it in folder of your choice (for example D:\XMR)
3) Create a new file named runXMR.bat file with this commands in it:

Code:

@echo off

tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq bitmonerod.exe" 2>NUL | find /I /N "bitmonerod.exe">NUL
if not %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 (
  echo Starting node...
  start /MIN bitmonerod.exe --seed-node 62.210.78.186:18080 --seed-node 195.12.60.154:18080 --seed-node 54.241.246.125:18080 --seed-node 107.170.157.169:18080 --seed-node 54.207.112.216:18080 --seed-node 78.27.112.54:18080 --seed-node 209.222.30.57:18080 --seed-node 80.71.13.55:18080 --seed-node 107.178.112.126:18080
) else (
  echo Node already started.
)

tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq simplewallet.exe" 2>NUL | find /I /N "simplewallet.exe">NUL
if not %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 (
  if exist wallet.bin.keys (
    echo Starting previous wallet...
    start simplewallet.exe --wallet wallet.bin
  ) else (
    echo Starting new wallet...
    start simplewallet.exe --generate-new-wallet wallet.bin
  )
) else (
  echo Wallet already started.
)

5) [optional] For fast synchronization with the network:
 a.) Download the win 64x blockchain from the OP
 b.) Create %APPDATA%\bitmonero folder and place the blockchain there

4) Double click the runXMR.bat file you've just created - this will open both the daemon (it'll start sync) and the wallet (on first run it'll create the wallet and ask you for a password just once).
5) Write down the 24 words it gives you - with those you'll be able to recover the wallet without knowing the password (you could use copy/paste). Keep it safe.
6) Quit the wallet with 'q' and enter and run the runXMR.bat file again - type your password to decrypt the wallet and you'll be sure you know the right password.
7) BACKUP your wallet (there will be 3 files - wallet.bin, wallet.bin.keys and wallet.bin.address.txt, but the most important file is the .keys file)
After the daemon sync enter 'refresh' in the wallet.

You could use 'help' in both daemon (bitmonerod) and simplewallet to see all the commands but 'refresh' and 'q' ('exit') are the most used (also 'transfer' obviously).

EDIT: Lol Everybody want to help
