03:18:05 hi 03:18:25 i'm using exodus and want to add xmr support to btcpayserver, is there a way to create the walletkeyfile? 08:07:56 are there official android app for monero wallet? 08:21:27 mfoolb: no official ones, but trusted ones. monerujo 08:21:47 oh, wait. the official monero wallet also builds on android now 08:21:55 but I 08:22:04 I'd go with monerujo still 08:22:06 M5M400: thanks, I'll check that out 08:28:19 what about privacy when using android official app to link to a monero wallet? 11:01:24 Hi everyone. I have chosen to run a wallet in full node mode on the monero gui. I let it run all night. But now it says network status / disconnected. Is this normal ? And where is the blockchain located by default on linux 11:05:13 ~/.bitmonero/lmdb 11:05:49 It could be your daemon corrupted, there's a known bug, rare-ish, which does that unfortunately. 11:06:19 What should be the display ? 11:06:32 Thank you 11:07:18 I don't understand that question. 11:08:28 I mean what you the network status be ? 11:09:36 I'm not familiar with the GUI display, but I guess it should not be disconnected :) 11:10:04 Try quitting GUI and daemon, then run daemon from a terminal, see if it errors out. 11:10:10 shoulOK thanks 11:10:23 Good idea 11:12:17 OK I guess there have an probelm becuase the blockchain is only ten gigB 12:39:42 Hi back ! So I dowloaded the monero cli and lauched monerod 12:40:11 So the blockchain sync starts 12:40:59 But then i get a "Bus error (core dumped)" 12:47:00 Ok, Imma try this first https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/4316/blockchain-synchronization-fails-bus-error/4317 12:59:36 Then it's that corruption bug I'm afraid. Delete and resync. 15:31:50 Jeese... I read the first part of the channel message and for a second I thought it was talking about me. 15:32:04 "PLEASE NOTE: there is a persistent scammer"... 15:32:07 :D 15:32:30 Yeah, you're not *that* persistent. 15:32:38 ;) 17:26:09 Hi, I have a question, if MimbleWimble has this same chance for inflation bug like Monero? or MimbleWimble protocol has more clear and sure prove that there is no coins created from air? 17:26:43 I know Monero and MW uses CT for hide tx amounts 17:59:53 I am runnning monerod and dowlaoding the blockchain but I get a of error messages 18:00:14 I am around 60 percent and it slowed down a lot now 18:00:26 "Peers claimed ..." 18:00:36 Is this normal ? 18:02:19 I have downloaded the software today so I doubt I really need an upgrade. 18:05:28 The claims of higher version are fine. Some people run lying nodes. 18:05:52 What error messages (if not just those version messages) ? 18:07:59 Mostly that. I have another king that was also red though not bold red like those. 18:08:49 I just can't use that pc right now because it so busy with the Blchain that I can't even scroll up the Terminal 18:09:24 another kind* 18:10:19 But it did slow down an awful lot. 18:11:20 Now I get SYNCHRONISATION STARTED 18:11:39 And then "peers claimed" 18:12:33 Do you have many peers in the 51.x range ? 18:12:48 There are lot of liars in there. Also other places but that's the main one IIRC. 18:13:37 speaking of those v60 nodes, how long can one ban them for? 18:13:45 ban [] 18:13:48 for seconds, how large a number can I use? 18:14:09 Up to lots. 18:14:19 They're cleared on restart. 18:14:37 I'd keep it below 2 billion seconds. 18:14:51 ok thx 18:15:03 I have >50 banned now 18:15:34 most from ips starting with 116 and 95 18:16:40 Yup. Most problems are with some 51.x 18:17:19 none of mine start with 51. 18:17:44 one 85 18:17:55 and one 195 18:18:18 sorry I still can't scroll up the terminal 18:18:32 And... 51 again 18:19:28 At the rate I am going I'll be finished next year 18:19:56 Can't I run just half a blockchain ? 18:20:43 Also, I wonder, does the blockchain grow for ever ? 18:20:46 sounds like you have a HDD not an SSD 18:20:58 nioc: I have 18:21:21 SSD is so much faster 18:21:22 I just thought I could make it with a lot of patience 18:21:44 it will get there in a couple of days 18:21:57 I know, the pc I am on right does have one but it has a slower CPU so I am afraid to do it on this one 18:22:24 the big bottle neck is the drive 18:22:29 Good. A couple of days should be fine. 18:22:56 Ok, I am going to try on this one. Thank you. 18:22:56 SSD takes several hrs on my i3 and SSD 18:23:11 and takes days on my i5 and HDD 18:23:29 I have ... AMD semproon over here 18:23:57 Good to know I am definitely going to try this. Thank you. 18:24:04 yw 18:24:20 let us know how it goes :) 18:24:27 Can I just copy the blockchain then ? 18:24:30 I will 18:25:27 I have no experience moving a blockchain but AFAIUI there is still work that needs to be done such that you don't save time 18:26:11 Save time ? 18:26:20 also what you have now should not take much time on an SSD as it is the fastest to sync 18:26:33 no need to copy 18:26:45 just sync from the beginning 18:27:35 I was assuming you wanted to copy the portion of the BC you already synced 18:28:27 Ah ok 18:28:48 Rightly so assuming 18:29:17 Thanks for your advice good sir 18:29:48 p 18:29:51 np 18:31:58 What's the point of runnning lying nodes ? 18:32:29 Since all the other ones are there to tell they're lying AFAIU 18:34:13 yes, those have been running for a couple of months and i certainly don't have the knowledge to speculate why 18:34:54 Be an asshole. Maybe get some tiny advantage for yourself and feel like a smug cunt. Maybe there's a long term exploit. Maybe just an incompetent forker. Who knows. 18:35:48 Maybe they're trying to snare all of some particular target's connections to feed them a fake chain. 18:36:04 Haha hope it's not mine 18:36:07 Maybe they're spies, but incredibly incompetent ones. 18:36:37 I don't understand exactly what there is to spy 18:36:42 Or maybe they have decoy dumb nodes to get all the suspicion, and better hidden spy nodes elsewhere. 18:37:15 Everything. That's what TLAs do. They suck everything in, just in case. Because fuck people's right to privacy in their own affairs. 18:37:34 That's what's wrong with the world. It's full of people. 18:38:01 need more cows 18:38:03 In a few million years maybe we'll have all died and rats will take over, and do a better job. 18:38:07 Maybe. 18:38:43 What are TLAs ? 18:38:45 rats? 18:38:57 Shorthand for government spies. 18:39:09 Three Letter Agencies 18:39:10 I'd have said rabbits 18:39:15 Not that corporates aren't also at it, just smaller scale. 18:39:19 of course 18:40:38 And would they have any chance of succeeding whatever spyey they might be doing ? What benefits ? 18:41:09 spyey thing* 18:41:24 I’ve read that it’s a researcher testing how the network is reacting to bad nodes. 18:41:50 selsta: Ok so it's a thing 18:41:59 Unexpected I mean 18:42:22 There is no communication about that from the monero people ? 18:42:35 What do you mean? 18:42:38 selsta: If you have the source I am interested 18:43:08 It was on Reddit a few months ago. 18:43:09 I mean it's not usual that there a bunch of lying nodes outhere 18:43:31 Sorry I am new to this 18:43:55 The network handles it fine so nothing to worry about. 18:44:01 Hopefully one more node y'all can trust :-) 18:44:49 What a relief when you know the strucure is sound thanks to good design 18:47:59 Well, it could handle it better. I had a few tries, but kind fell flat on my face as it's hard to keep the false positives way down. 18:52:05 hi 18:54:28 Hi. If you have a question, just ask it, and wait, possibly a while. 18:59:26 fluffypony touched my no no place 18:59:53 long live randomx 19:00:16 Total Hash Rate: (24h) 4.65 KH/s (12h) 4.62 KH/s (1h) 5.20 KH/s (10m) 7.56 KH/s 19:00:20 i am so rich 20:10:28 nioc: You asked for a follow up about how long it took me to install a full node on SSD and HDD well, here's a first fact : It is already at 63 percent on SSD 20:11:20 it will get slower but that's a good start 20:12:16 nioc: In only one hour and a half, that is inpressive 20:14:26 I calculated that at the rate it goes on hdd, it is going to take thousand hours 20:15:16 So I might as well abort it 20:16:28 You could have copied the chain, it's compatible (unless different endianness). 20:17:14 All modern computer are what ? Little endians ? 20:17:51 Most mainstream computers that bill themselves as computers are little endian. 20:18:05 Indeed I wanted to know about that. Just copying the chain and starting monerod works ? 20:18:57 I have an old Imac G5. I wonder if it is big endian. It's from 2007 20:19:22 Was it Intel already ? 20:20:16 No PPC 20:20:33 Then big endian I think. 20:20:34 I am sorry not 2007 20:20:39 older 20:21:00 Ok, all PPC were Big endian ? 20:21:30 like 2005 or 2004 20:22:22 I looked it up, power can switch endianness. 20:22:46 i gizoogled it too and disagree 20:27:43 So I can just copy the blockchain and I'll be fine ? 20:28:59 Thanks 20:29:17 I don't think endian is politically correct anymore you guys. 20:29:35 What about if make only copy the missing files in it ? Is there a way to fuse them ? 20:30:00 Like only copy the files that are not already there ? 20:30:08 gscoders : the risks are identical because they both use the same tech 20:51:13 I guess nobody liked my joke. 20:51:21 Tough audience. 20:52:15 * cricket, cricket * 21:00:05 vtnerd : thanks for answer, both now using bulletproofs right? 21:00:27 Mochi101: I smiled when I read it 21:00:39 pretty sure Apple stayed big-endian when transitioning from M68K to PPC 21:01:39 don't know of any little-endian PPC OSs. Likewise, ARM can switch, but I haven't seen any big-endian ARM OSs 21:55:40 the choice for range proofs is is defined by the implementation. however, I think most would be using bulletproofs 21:58:29 it should be possible to get gentoo arm big endian. but you'd have to cross-compile bootstrap the environment yourself I think 21:59:56 Borromean proofs should be forbidden by consensus now. If you think they aren't, it's a bug. 22:00:05 gentoo has a ppl-le stage 3 setup, so it appears down a ppc le is painless (if you consider using gentoo painless) 22:00:33 gscoders was asking about comparing ringct to mimblewimble in general 22:01:07 Oh sorry. I missed that. 22:01:10 so its not easy to answer because mimblemimble isn't really a specifying a particular range proof implementation 22:01:31 yeah its from way above sorry 22:02:01 oops -> *ppc-le 22:53:08 =(
