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

[saddambitcoin]

One thing is not really clear to me and excuse me that I don't want to read all the pages of this thread.
I could not find it on the website as well.

How do I recover my private key? I got a bunch of words which is representing my private key, I wrote them down and stored them, but is there any other way to look into a file on my computer to find these words again?

edit: nevermind, I restarted the client with ./simplewallet and was asked about wallet.bin

You can also find the mnemonic seed (the 24 words) by using the command "seed" within simplewallet.

Let's say your hard drive crashes - you can recreate your wallet on another computer by starting simplewallet with the argument --restore-deterministic-wallet, then entering the words. Not bad!

Not surprising XMR gets attacked and will continue to be a target with such vitriol towards their own father, that made their birth possible.. constantly referring to them as scamdevs and acting as if XMR is the immaculate conception

That sort of sounds like a threat.

That's why I asked whether or not they had specific knowledge .. the wording is familiar.

Seriously wish somebody accidentally flipped a switch to make IP's show up for a day all across the forums.  And some archival website was able to take a snapshot.  Insanity would ensue

Are you implying you are aware of specific motivations behind the terrorist attack just less than 12 hours ago?

Or are you setting up a strawman?

Terrorist attack lmao

XMR is the future.

Those IP addresses are all there...  The mods can see them.  Of course there's tor.

Doubtful it would work in this case, my TOR sense is tingling.

Just made my first ever XMR purchase - 5 minutes of XMR dev time for attack mitigation and security.

Thanks, devs!!

Why can't I withdraw monero from BTER? Anyone else got this problem?

Well, I also just made my first purchase, but they are locked on BTER because I can't withdraw.
Very good first impression!

(1) Don't buy XMR on BTER, and (2) if it made a great first impression, then you would not be buying them this cheap

Cheers!

(1) Don't buy XMR on BTER, and

Too late, I just deposit some satoshis, did a market buy monero and went for withdrawal, basically a hit and run.

(2) if it made a great first impression, then you would not be buying them this cheap

The impression came when everything else already happened.

Can someone advise me on a place where I can do a hit and run which actually works? I don't want to have them locked up somewhere online.

edit: never did a personal transaction through this forum but I think I might want to try this as well, or shouldn't I?

how come it doesnt work? i think bter make you pay a 1% fee on withdrawal so that may be the reason why you cant withdraw? maybe you're withdrawing too much? otherwise, whats the error msg?

for hit and runs, i recommend mintpal and bter, but you can only hit small as the volume is very low there. most volume happens on poloniex and hitbtc

Poloniex has worked great for me.

Poloniex. I never hold funds on exchanges.

I downloaded the Windows x64 blockchain yesterday and have synced up to 202656. Stuck there for hours now so I must be on the wrong chain.

I downloaded it again this evening, but the file size suggests to me it's the same as yesterdays and I don't want to end up in the same position again.

Could the OP be updated with the correct Windows blockchain ASAP please! Ta

XMR deposit is disabled 因技术维护，虚拟币充值暂停，感谢您谅解和支持。

XMR deposit is disabled due to technical maintenance, the virtual currency recharge pause, thank you for your understanding and support.

I'm trying to withdraw 2 digits of XMR.

Seems polo is trading, huge volumes over last hour back to the low mid 400s after taking a dive.

Wonder why Bittrex is still down?

O well, been working all day and didn't worry once as a holder of XMR here. I did expect to lose more liq. value though, the market looks really strong. I'm not thinking about the short term either way with XMR but I'd be lying to say I'm not happy to see the market response on polo after trading resumed.

Great job monero dev(s) with the way you handled this

[binaryFate]

Kudos to all those who were involved in the quick investigation&fix, core team of course but also the few programmers revolving around. Thank you guys, really!

Kudos to the whole XMR community for the way it reacted, especially considering the amount of trolling against us. In cryptoland, we look like one of the few wise grown-up adults communities in a world of stupid children.

I find it extremely funny to think that the suckers behind the attack were trying to obtain a financial gain from it, and at this point it seems to be a *complete* fail.
