Monero Support

[iliev41]

Monero is a good coin. I most of all like anonymity in it. I think that it is worth investing..

Monero is cash for a connected world. It’s fast, private, and secure. With Monero, you are your own bank. You can spend safely, knowing that others cannot see your balances or track your activity.

Well, it only seems to sync. but there is no traffic on the internet connection and nothing happens for a longer time.
and i never had the problem to close the daemon before.

No need to bootstrap. It tempts me to put on tinfoil hat when wondering about whether some barriers to entry are not tackled intentionally, but that is always denied with sound logic.

Your DOS experience is about equal to my Windows knowledge. Isn't there something you can do with right click and properties to set a command line on an icon? Maybe it has to be a shortcut?

I sent Monero from an exchange to the Monero GUI wallet while still "in syncing". I have confirmed the amount is in there but I cant see it on the balance. I have waited for the blocks to end syncing and still waiting.....Will the correct balance show when syncing is completed?

Thanks

Been encountering a strange occurrence when trying to sync blockchain which is that my modem keeps resetting itself at least a couple of times every hour.

[lovetherain0101]

thank you stoffu, the truth is that i do not have big knowledge regarding the wallet functions and better to ask than sorry Smiley

thank you again, will follow your instructions- i think Kraken is not using payment ID but i would check of course before sweep .. Smiley

Monero's crypto-currency stock market has become a well-known coin recently and attract investors attention. project is a logical investment in the future you are analyzing.

 I made a recent transfer and for some reason it was saying that I could only send 12 monero even tho the unlocked balance was much higher.  After a bit of time it did allow me to send more.

Yesterday I ran into the following errors. Thought my blockchain copy was corrupt, so I went to a backup from 10 days ago, it synced to the same point again, then the same errors. Should I assume it is corrupt further back? Any ideas what to do to avoid syncing from scratch? Export the blockchain.raw and import it back in from further back?

Doing the export gave the following error, so I guess I *did* need to roll it back further.

Anyone else found anything like this? What could be causing that? It also often resets as I start up bitmonerod.. very strange

Updated to 0.9.1 - no problems so far. Do we have an updated list of pools that are running 0.9.1? I'd rather not send my (meager) hash power to a pool operator that isn't paying attention.

Does anyone know how to uninstall the latest Monero GUI Beta 2 from Ubuntu? I got it to install and created a wallet, but ran into some daemon problems trying to access that wallet so now I'm trying to start fresh. I'm new to Linux, so take that into some consideration.

You can simply delete the Monero GUI Beta 2 folder and update to the most recent version (GUI v0.12.0.0):

https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/7991/how-do-i-upgrade-my-software-to-v0-12-0-0/7992#7992

Note that, with GUI v0.12.0.0, you may run into this issue:

Where are you getting those version numbers from? 0.9.x was released more than 2 years ago.

What particular error are you incurring?

Could be a spam bot. They seem to like to repost old posts from others verbatim to build up their post count or whatever.

1.) Where can I download the full data.mbd? and what is the current size please?

2.) Somewhere I red that blockchain for linux is different from the blockchain for windows, can someone explain it to me please?

1) I don't know where you can get a .mdb file. The link for the most current bootstrap is use this link for the most current bootstrap on https://getmonero.org/downloads/#source but that is .raw format.

2) Yea that's true but with the blockchain linked above it will be converted to the correct database format once you run "monero-blockchain-import" on it.

Generally though I find that downloading from the network vs over ftp is not going to be your bottleneck. The bottleneck is typically going to come from the limitations of your hard drive read write speed. It is highly recommended that you use a SSD instead of an HDD if you can. You can even just use the SSD to bootstrap and copy the data.mdb over to an HDD once you are up to date if you need to conserve space on your HDD for other applications.
