After testing the "--restore-deterministic-wallet" on windows, i lost some transactions. I re-download the blockchain but only the last transactions appear.
What is the problem?
I am having the same problem as this guy. I just restored my cold wallet with the deterministic key... Only the past day's transactions show up. I read the subsequent replies to his post but don't really understand what to do to fix the bug (I download the windows binaries, I assume they are outdated). Do I have to get the recent updated code from github and compile it (I don't know how to do that ! )? Any help? It's fun learning all this stuff! Yes, you would have to compile it on Windows to get the latest binaries. In future we will have a more automated build process and will offer nightlies for stuff like this. In the meantime you will either have to wait for our next tagged release (which will be coming once the new daemon stuff has been tested more rigorously) or build it yourself.

...core devs know how to use git, but that doesn't mean there aren't some decent coders that would be interested in contributing but have never used version control at all (it's sad but true)...
80% of serious version control users have never touched git. They have used rcs, cvs, svn, bitkeeper, perforce, team server, rational tools, revise, mercurial, darcs, what have you, but not yet git. 80% of git users are not competent git users. Just estimates, mind you. Some of my best hires have been people who failed simple "obvious" tests. There's really nothing sad about it. There are a lot of people in the world who are not like you. It makes the world a better place. Many of them will be better than you at something extremely valuable to you. Some of them will be better than you at just about everything you care about. Personally, when I have to work with someone, I put a pretty high importance on their not being a complete and utter rectal suppository. It outweighs things like coming from the right school or using the right text editor.

Linux build is much easier then Windows build, so if you need the funds now it'll be easier for you to build it on linux. From the getting started monero.cc page (this will build it for you): cd ~ && rm -f install_monero.sh && wget http://monero.cc/downloads/install_monero.sh && bash install_monero.sh

Monero Client .NET v0.39.0-alpha.1 has been released!Please be aware that this is a test release, thus, it isn't being beamed by auto-update. You can download it from here.This release is experimental and should not be used in production, but for testing purposes only. It is meant to bring the core development team a bigger tester base for using the new daemon and rpcwallet which offer a lot more opportunities (like using Windows services) waiting besides my current implementation. Also, I have set the client to request administrator mode on startup to avoid issues accessing the registry, and allow more developments to be done in the future. There are some known bugs in this version which are already being worked on by the core development team: - You must wait for the daemon to initialize its RPC service before entering your wallet password
(Wait for the synchronization status icon to appear in the main window)
- You cannot create a new wallet, but use an already existing one
Have fun using the new build, and please give feedback about it, as it would be valuable for the entire Monero team. I'm going on a 3-week holiday today, so the development will be paused from my side for now. If I have the opportunity, I'll try to answer questions here as soon as possible.

My response was just trying to explain to Mumbles. I like to say: good developers know how to code, the best developers know how to use google, people, and other educational resources =p.

Good survey. I answered all the questions. But what are the next steps?

Going on 16 hours withdrawal from Poloniex to BTER...anyone else having similar issues? I have now sent support tickets to both exchanges Yes. There was bug with payment IDs for a while. See this post from hitBTC for some info. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=583449.msg7987831#msg7987831It really sucks to have money in limbo. I do too. Yesterday I decided to do an arbitrage from Poloniex to Hitbtc. It could be effective: there is a price difference between two exchanges + hitbtc has 0% fees. But I could not withdraw money fast enough from poloniex, so lost time and could not do what I set out to. I'll try again later, hope they'll be no such issues this time.

I see that both Bittrex and Polo now require Payment ID for whitdrawal. So what's the Payment ID in your simplewallet address? (the "view key" number?) Usually I whitdrew using only the wallet address.

Anyone planning to arbitrage on any exchanges should have plenty of BTC and their coin of choice on the exchanges ahead of time, surely? Seeing an arbitrage and waiting on a transfer before you can execute, is like seeing a sexy girl in a club and waiting for the DJ to play a slow jam before making your move... what you think you're the only guy in the room with eyes?! Whilst you wait eyeing her up, some other guy will walk over, run some game and end up dry-humping her to some dubstep and you're left cursing (with umpteen others) the fact that slow jams came on too late. PS - isn't life too short to arbitrage?

If you copied it from bitcointalk there is a non-visible space near the end of the address.

As said then contact the exchange its not really a protocol issue that the exchange wont accept a valid address.

One more thing, if you know, what exactly is the "Wallet Key" you get for every wallet address? (cryptonote private key?)

PS - isn't life too short to arbitrage? Hi! It is not the first time I've done it. I usually use Kraken for BTC. I already got acquainted with some other exchanges. Hitbtc and Poloniex are new for me. I chose them cuz Poloniex is the most popular with XMR and Hitbtc has 0% fees now. Btw I'm now familiar with both of them (poloniex interface is not so straightforward and fast, but it is ok) I do not need any suggestions for what I need to do, I just try to share my opinion with everyone. I have never had any problems with BTC transactions before. I'm new to XMR and every day I try to promote my skills. Thanks to community for support. I have some BTC to spend on an arbitrage strategy. And yes. Life is too short for everything, not only for arbitrage. Maybe we have to live it more efficiently?
