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

[saddambitcoin]

I think they should rename the Monero Missives to the Monero Massives because this looks like a great UI.

Can't wait to use it (on OSX). Hehe.

Edit:
I would like to be able to see the # of mixins on the slider where you choose how private to make the transaction.

I like the clean look, but above all what I really like is that it is so different from the bitcoin wallet (Qt core at least). This different look, from scratch, is consistent with the fundamentals (Monero is not a bitcoin-fork). This is the harder, more ambitious way to go.
If you manage to have something highly intuitive even though you went in the "hard" direction of a completely different look, it's really well done. Looks like it so far, nice work!!

I would like to see the mixin as well.

Also, just to clarify something: this is a complete rewrite of simplewallet and not a wrapper, correct? Is so, then it must be able to connect to a daemon on another device, correct? If so, then there is no reason the wallet will not be compilable for ARM, correct? If so, then it will be truly cross platform (Windows, Linux, OSX, Windows Phone, Android,  iOS), correct?

If not, please let me know where my enthisiasm gets derailed.

"Mixin" is denoted as the "privacy level".

The software integrates the functions of the daemon and the wallet, so no EXE/RPC wrapping is needed, and everything could be merged into one assembly. The question about being "truly" cross-platform is interesting for me too though, but it may be done, as I think that even the current implementations could be ported to ARM.

I am glad that the the official GUI wallet has finally been presented, but a bit sad to know that I "failed miserably" with the design of Monero Client .NET.
Nevermind, I had a talk about this with the developers, and they told me that unofficial GUI wallets will have to be able to perform special tasks. That's why I added merchantability support for mine, for instance. I also play a role at designing specifications of some upcoming "things" in the background...

More than 2 months of work - including planning - finally has a product. Great job, keep it up!

Great job Monero devs on the Wallet/Account.

Couldn't expect a better presentation on Monero development, than the first fireside chat.
Thank you Devs!

Once the text is organized using Qt Linguist, there's little additional work to add a language beyond obtaining the translation itself. So I think we'll add any realistically useful language that someone can provide support for.

Yes, I was thinking about the actual translations. I'd love to help to translate/check a few. I think it would make sense to use a couple of eyes to review translations as terminology is often difficult and a big part of the UX, and I love the way the Monero dev team takes terminology seriously.

Hi!
How i can mine monero on linux/bamt with GPU?

What is this?

It's the MiniWindow - I showed it off in the Fireside Chat. There's an icon at the top left when the window-bar slides down that lets you switch between the regular interface and the MiniWindow.

One of the things we've spent an inordinate amount of time is abstracting stuff away from simplewallet. This has resulted in us being able to build rpcwallet, which takes the rpc guts out of simplewallet and gives it a much more robust frame for automated environments.

The GUI will use the same libraries the daemon does, so it will provide the same underlying functionality without the need for a second instance of the daemon to run. This is NOT the right solution for mobile devices or even very low power devices. That said, the fundamentals that we're abstracting and working on now will allow a rich variety of interfaces to exist, all inheriting and using the same functionality without worrying about underlying application logic changes.

You can collapse the Twitter/News bar if that annoys you.

Is it possible to opt-out of Twitter pre compiletime?

There will be a flag you set when going through the first-start wizard that will allow you to suppress non-P2P connections. There are consequences to this (eg. DNS seed nodes cannot be used because DNS traffic != P2P traffic, the blockchain bootstrap can't be auto-downloaded, the Twitter and news feeds can't update, the tutorial videos are not available, and so on), but this is a "paranoid mode" that some may choose to turn on.

That's in the works - we've just been debating it peripherally (for 2 weeks) so we get how it displays correct. For the most part, even a power user may not care about the actual value after a while, so we don't want the numerical amount to be too obtrusive (or too hidden;)

Set the default values to something well thought through, but let power users reconfigure the values used in a preference setting or file.

It could also be an option that shows when you hover over the slider. But I'm sure you've thought of all this already, just thinking out loud.

This looks fantastic guys! Are you targeting a beta for release or just releasing it when finished? If so when do you think we can get our hot little hands on it?

Miners are listed in the first post of this thread.

Why isn't Monero listed on cryptsy yet?
They added so many bad coins but not Monero?
I wanted to buy some just now and could not find it there.

The continuum slider is cool.  And then a  mouse over context popup can give detail about the chosen level. (x-mixin, network yaya).  Personally I think the slider should be as granular (detented) as the actual privacy steps.

I was wondering the same thing when I first heard about Monero...it seems that XMR's unique code is making it hard for them to implement into the site. I'm sure they'll be adding it eventually, but until then they have lost my business to www.poloniex.com


I've been tweeting them about Monero - @cryptsy
