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

[myagui]

Am I the only one that feels that we've outgrown the forum real estate that is generally attributed to an altcoin in BitcoinTalk? I was checking the OP, and the MoneroTalk.org forum is the closest alternative listed (other than reddit, IRC, etc), but doesn't appear to be very active.

Is there a plan (or could we pool for one) of moving towards a dedicated forum?
I'm not too thrilled about MoneroTalk.org, just for the fact that I'm so much more familiar with SMF. I suppose there might be others in the same position as me... Just food for thought.

delete your wallet.bin (or whatever you've called your wallet) - NOT the wallet.bin.keys file - and run simplewallet as normal. It will rebuild the wallet cache from scratch.

Hi thanks for your help, i just did this and opened simplewallet but it didn't rebuilded the cache as expected

You mean exactly like we have on the OP? Here:

GUI
All current GUIs are in beta, but they should be fairly safe to use because they work through bitmonerod and simplewallet from the main code.

• Qt GUI (Cross-platform) by Neozaru
• Windows GUI by Jojatekok

fluffypony, I  have used some GUI XMR wallet early  - CryptoNoteWallet.exe...
Is It one of these 2 or not? What GUI is better for luckless user?

Can you provide a little bit more information, like maybe tell us the exact steps you took and what it did do?

No, that's not one of ours. I suggest Jojatekok's Windows Client - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=683365.0

There's a plan - it got slightly derailed by the attacks over the past two weeks, but now that we're getting back on track we'll start pulling things together.

Is this Jojatekok's Windows Client better then CryptoNoteWallet.exe?

Whales are playing on Polo. At some point made 250 BTC buying wall at highest price to buy. Lot of chances to dump for those that have to. And lot of chances could trigger panick buying.

Investors don't care about 3d party GUIs. In fact, the RPC builds don't even work for me at all and non-RPC isn't really more user friendly than simplewallet CLI.
For that QT-GUI not even compiled builds exist. Not user-friendly at all.

I'm not holding a huge amount, but I'd definitely donate for a working Windows compile by dev team in alpha stadium.

"Investors" is a misnomer. They don't pay our salaries, and the majority of them have hardly donated to Monero development.

Nonetheless, as the past two weeks have demonstrated there are fundamental things we have to get right BEFORE we can even think about finalising our GUI. Work has not stopped on it, but we are spending less time on it and more time on fundamentals.

Thinking the devs or the core team or whoever supports a coin should care about "Investors" is a fallacy inherited from the 99.9% of crap that compose altcoinsland.
I am grateful fluffy and other developers don't see Monero holders as investors, and don't sell shiny promises to whoever sees him/herself as such.
In fact they do the exact opposite, and that is one of the things that makes Monero different. If you disagree with the priorities and directions taken by the team, I suggest you go back to the 99.9%.

Note that nobody said that having a GUI was bad, it is just not an urgent priority, and there are good reasons for that.

Ok i just noticed by myself that this wasn't working because the wallet.bin.keys i had in my wallet directory was the keys from my older wallet, how can i retrieve the wallet.bin.keys from my current wallet that i have access to ?

How long does it usually take for transactions with ~100xmr to show up at Polo balance?

[Aaxx]

I found out that i had to remove Kaspersky Internet Security 2013, install KIS 2015 and run  bitmonerod  with KIS protection off! simplewallet.exe syncing right now with bitmonerod!  
If you have Kaspersky Internet Security 2013 -
never DON't drop simplewallet.exe & bitmonerod.exe
to folder
c:\users\Admin\appdata\roaming\bitmonero
It's best to use another one!
I'll be Glad if that would be useful for somebody!
Thank everyone for help!

usually about half an hour - an hour

Confirmed.
Polo didn't show the confirmations in realtime with this amount.

Looks like an interesting coin.

I'm not sure if you guys noticed but you can withdraw XMR from Poloniex directly to your bank card, check the announcement at the Poloniex homepage. You have to buy XUSD and withdraw it through Coinomat.com

The fees are hideous, but it's a cool service and idea.

Plus, i suppose it keeps them(hopefully?) shielded from all the stupid US money regulations involving BTC/USD .. Can't blame them there.

Glad you got it working in the end - seeing how you tested everything else it seemed likely that KIS was causing the problem!
