[ANN] AEON: Scalable, private, mobile-friendly cryptocurrency

[aerbax]

Well, it seems like if you try the cryptonight-light protocol on Moo's server (just to test) and then switch back to plain old cryptonight, the server gets really mad at you and starts saying "Stratum authentication failed".  I think I may have tripped some sort of attack sensor....

I think most pools will ban you if you send bad shares (which the cryptonite-lite shares would be at this point). I don't know what the policy is for how long that lasts.

Looking at the default config file for the pool's code, it's (I think) 10 minutes.  I gave it 20 and still no luck.  So I imagine Moo changed his.

But it's no biggie - Arux's pool needed a little love anyway.

I have some coins on poloniex. Can anyone help me work out how to get them off there and to Bittrex?
Thanks

PM sent, but to say the same thing here, if anyone is able get through to Poloniex on the matter (which I have not been able to do), please let them know I would be happy to assist them. The hard fork is due to kick in within the next day or so which means whatever old version of the wallet they may have won't work any more.

Smooth can you wait at all. I have quite a few Aeon on poloniex and am happy to give some to someone who can help me get them out

[adhitthana]

Excuse my ignorance too But what does this mean.

To send using a Payment ID, include the Payment ID after a regular transfer command:  transfer 6 <Deposit Address> <amount> <Payment ID>

At Bittrex I can generate an address and a payment ID. But at poloniex i only have a place for the amount and also a space for the address. Do I have to add a payment ID when I transfer?
Thanks

Also I tried to contact Poloniex by logging a ticket, asking if we can update the wallet.

As long as AEON is delisted from Poloniex, you cannot deposit, you can only withdraw. But the paiement id is disabled too. So you cannot withdraw on an other exchange directly, you can only withdraw to a personal wallet first.
After, from your personal wallet,  you are able to send to bittrex with:

Code:

transfer 3 <your_deposit_address_from_bittrex> <your_amount> <your_paiement_id_from_bittrex>

thanks....what does the "transfer 3" part mean?
Do i put transfer 3...or transfer 4 or what?

3 is the number of mixins to use to provide anonymity on the chain. 2-4 are good numbers to use for routine transactions. Higher numbers can be used to increase the degree of untraceability, but will make your transactions bigger, which translates to slower and more fees (currently the fee only increases if the transaction gets split but that will change in the future).

But it says wrong address...

Hmmm I put in 5000 Aeon in  the top box....then tried to transfer following the above method...but must be doing something wrong.
I got a reply back from Poloniex who said they wont be adding Aeon back ATM

Smooth...how much time do i have before the fork kicks in?

[smooth]

Smooth...how much time do i have before the fork kicks in?

Current block 591446

554 left to go, approx 60 per minute, so approximately 9 hours

BTW, I did at least hear from Poloniex about updating their wallet so they should be fine to continue withdrawals after the fork. They did say that inactive coin wallets are only running part of the time each day so if you have delays on withdraws, that is normal. Nothing about relisting, so we'll have to be patient on that and use Bittrex and OTC for now.

Thanks. It is still saying "invalid address"....
Hmm..do the spaces have to be exact?
Could be a problem at poloniex's end. Has anyone else been able to transfer from Polo?

Ok just heard from Polo...I do need to send to a desktop wallet.
Where can i download one?

Also, if you are withdrawing from Polo to a desktop wallet, you only enter the address. The full command you entered above is something you would enter if you were sending from the desktop wallet.

Polo should provide a payment ID field so that you can use this option when withdrawing, but they have not. So your only option is to send to a desktop wallet.

The address being the long sequence of letters after 'transfer 6' above that starts with 'Wmt'

However, since you are trying include a payment ID, that is probably an exchange address (likely Bittrex but I did not check) and you should not type that into Polo because you can't include the required payment ID and your coins may be lost.

You need to install your own wallet, use that to generate your own non-exchange address, and then use that non-exchange address for the Polo withdraw, or get a trusted member to do that for you.

Thanks for you help. I am waiting to hear from polo about this.
funny thing is I don't seem to be able to transfer to a desktop but I did as an experiment try to transfer some to a bittrex address without an ID, and they have left my Polo account and are showing as pending. (I may have lost those coins)

As long as they show as pending you can have support cancel it. Open a ticket.

If it does go out without a payment ID then you can contact Bittrex support and they may be able to locate the coins for you.

So I'm trying to get a desktop wallet. I'm very untechnical. I've got windows 8 (32 maybe) ...do i need windows 64?
If not should I run the simple wallet...or extract it? Or...?

Yes you do need 64-bit Windows for now, so if you only have 32 bit or have <4-6 GB of RAM you better just get someone to help you move the coins.

Download the Windows wallet (.ZIP file) using the link in the first post on this thread where it says "current release windows". Extract it. Download the blockchain bootstrap using the link in the first post of this thread. I don't remember where it goes on your computer, but you can find that on the last few pages.

Open a terminal window. Launch the node (anond.exe).  Wait for it to finish syncing  (shouldn't take too long -- but if it starts from block 0 and takes forever then you put the bootstrap in the wrong place). Launch simplewallet.exe --generate-new-wallet. It will give you a bunch of seed words, those are your backup, so write those down on a piece of paper (keep in a safe place). It will also give you an address. That's the address you give to Poloniex.

If you have any more questions, please post them. There are many helpful people on this thread.

Thanks again, I might have to download later from Polo with someones help. I'm glad that this will probably be possible after the fork. But I'll keep trying. My girlfriend is coming over and I'm sure if I tell he rwhat i'm trying to do she will say...crypto..what? huh? What is it?...come to dinner

I'll pop back later
Great community here too. thanks
