When using xmrig, is it possible to pause a worker remotely, i.e., through the HTTP API?

Found my answer. You can do it through the API, although I didn't see it in workers.xmrig.info.

monero daemon = running your own node?

yes

You pronounce daemon like demon right

wish raspbian had monero package, forced to have the daemon on my laptop now

i dont think so

thematrix5000[m]: more like, day-mawn, not dee-mawn

Okay

which exchanges are the most based?

Not sure if I understand the question correctly but I've always used localmonero.

Has anyone tried bisq?

<gabbiel "which exchanges are the most bas"> centralized ones -> kraken and binance

<terroristofthehe "Has anyone tried bisq?"> soon... need some btc for it though

xmr needs to hit the binance dex

Yeah, I've looked into bisq for some time but haven't bit the bullet yet. Seems a bit more complicated and more expensive than localmonero.

I love the simplicity of p2p exchanges. Just pay a guy and get monero in return. Never had any trouble.

localmonero sounds a bit risky

Maybe, in what way?

because you have to trust the trader

bisq is just working with a preprogrammed code

but at least those traders have a rep to go with

Well, I've bought monero and other crypto with fiat using SEPA payments. With those you can prove that you've paid to the seller in case of a dispute. Then the p2p exchange staff can determine that the seller is in the wrong and staff can complete the trade. The monero goes into escrow as soon as you start the trade.

The seller has to actually have the required monero in their exchange wallet

all right, sounds good

whats the difference between wallet rpc and the daemon?

The daemon serves the RPC requests. It also serves blocks to peers (via TCP without RPC)

looking for an exchange that takes usd from Zelle

RPC lets the daemon act as a "remote node" for other wallets. By default, only a wallet on your local computer.

ok thank you

mnt_grrr: localmonero

gabbiel: any place that does not have a mark up?

<mnt_grrrl "gabbiel: any place that does not"> A place like that most likely doesn't exist unfortunately

monero chads rise up

<mnt_grrrl "gabbiel: any place that does not"> It’s not a markup, it’s market price for not donating all of your personal info to an exchange/gov.

KYC exchanges give you a discount in exchange for your PII.

And if you intend to withdraw the xmr from the exchange you still might end up with more or less the same amount compared to if you made the trade on localmonero. The centralized exchanges really likes to bury their documentation of their fees.

At least to my experience. I've only traded low amounts so far

Avoiding KYC and custodians is well worth 5% or less to me.

This is the way

ok

thank you!

sethsimmons: hmmm :)

No KYC is the way 😉

they don't even have the courtesy to give you ky jelly before they subject you to kyc

i don't know why i typed that. i'm in full on babble mode

i have done kyc for four exchanges that were eventually hacked at one time or another. (mt gox, bitfinex, cavirtex claims to have been hacked once but no damage was done, and quadrigacx)

i think my passport is permanently on a public blockchain now

That's the reason for as well to not register on exchanges anymore. They're too high of a target for hackers. The only one I kind of trust anymore is Kraken because they went out of their way to support PGP encrypted emails.

do people like none custodial exchanges?

xD

ugh, damnit. with the new bindings, my local network xmrig miners can't connect to the daemon that has restricted rpc ports

ok, so if i bind unrestricted rpc to 0.0.0.0, and restricted rpc to the box's IP, then maybe it'll work?

huzzah it worked

gingeropolous: Been mining long?

I hear that gingeropolous can figure anything out

:) nioc . terroristofthehe, been mining for too long. switched to solo mining and reeeeaaaalllly hating the variance

Haha, I've trying out mining after I heard of the recent attack. Solo for me as well.

Haven't seen any rewards yet. Won't probably ever see any as I'm just using monerd on auto :p

Goood Morning Vietnam! I think everyone here knows that most Monero exchange withdrawals and desposits are traceable (Breaking Monero poisoned outputs). How does it feel to go out and lie to people that they are private and then earn less than holding BTC on your bag?

why he was kicked?

I am running a `stagenet` setup and got the error `Error: failed to parse address` when trying to use `transfer` to this address: `4BGJs8Pw11FYZ3meBzDgwq4rzak7PVZ2gbE1HRuw1FWy58YycCvAn24WJkcnCMmBUVFnyDrPzaEN4cj98EwEZzF8A2zxCHh` - I don't understand why. Are stagenet addresses different from the main network?

Yes, stagenet addresses start with a 5 (primary) or 7 (subaddress)

I see, thanks!

questi: eternal spammer and antagonist pushing a monero clone coin

localmonero.co is that the correct url? Don't want to strumble on a fake clone

That's the one mnt_grrrl, they also have an .onion if you want to go full anon mode with the tor browser

onion is more secure

It's what I would recommend as well.

modul8[m] indeed

bitcoin is going to crash sooner or later. nobody i know really follows this stuff and stores i approach ignore or dont understand accepting crypto as a payment method. sucks we are too adcanced for the normies. what should i read after finishing the fall of hyperion?

not sure about that, looks like bitcoin cannot be crashed. it has been absurdly high so long it kinda warped the reality and now everybody believes this is just normal.

modul8[m]: damn that is a blast from the past.

Buy bitcoin for 30K today or 400K in a few years.

orly

where did you pull the 400k number from?

why I keep seeing such inflated figures attached to btc?

if they say it enough times maybe people will believe it

What is this magic with the mempool? transactions appear within seconds

Does that indicate no D++ in use?

hello

does "dust" play any role after rct

what is the meaning here "version >= HF_VERSION_EXACT_COINBASE"

checking if the current blockchain version is newer than a particular hardfork

why opposite use of less amount ? "coinbase transaction doesn't use full amount of block reward"

if that was pre-ringct, it was because exact amounts would create too much dust, or something like that

since amounts were in denominations

so the value would be rounded off to avoid that

yes but version >13 is allways rct so what's the meaning here

It means that after a cutoff, blocks which do not claim the entire allowed amount in coinbase are rejected.

Before htat, they were allowed.

And this created an info leak, so an observer could tell whether two blocks were mined by the same entity if they both claimed less in a particular way.

Tiny though.

very rare really

a leak is a leak. tiny leaks still get exploited

look at Inte SGX...

selsta please consider 2 more possibly bad IPs: 168.119.153.14 & 135.181.96.97 ("syncing", stuck at block 2263960) -- paste.debian.net/1179682

added, thanks

Selsta is 100% sure that 1) Node in "syncing mode are bad"

2) If any of my peers are this nodes, my node will stuck?

Im asking because, im running my node w/o DNS and txt file, and I have some peers with that status "syncing" but my node is ok

You can ignore it, it does not harm your node.

Ok thanks

I assume they are currently in "pause" mode and will switch to a new attack at some point.

Fluffy pony is worth 100 million

who isn't

I know a Nigerian prince worth twice as much

And if you send 1 XMR to him, he will share his wealth with you

one of those scammers phoned me from a jamaican number. said that if i gave him a 5000 moneygram he'd give me half a million dollars. there was a delivery team in the neighbourhood ready to give me the check he said

i strung him a long for a bit

:)

i said i was going to go to the local shopper's drug mart (chain store in canada if you don't know what it is) and send him the money

i think that the justification was that the $5000 was to pay the tax lawyer or something

he said that they paid all the taxes are part of the deal but there was a processing fee that had to be paid by me first

if you string them along long enough, you probably saved at least one other person from getting scammed in that time

good point ndorf

he said he was from the ontario gaming commission too (they run all the lotteries), so I went to their web site to see if it was one of the well-known scams. it was actually, so i started telling him about what i was reading on the website. Then he said "We know about that!"

lol.

scammers are just so pathetic, imagine spending your life this way, calling strangers with this bullshit

LOL, wrt scammers you should check the hilarious TEDx presentations by James Veitch eg youtube.com/watch?v=LiLS7U7YIdc

Q: can you recommend source good sources (subreddits, forums, websites) for following crypto markets, altcoins etc?

Hey, careful, man, there's a beverage here!

what's up with that? i have similar messages in my log too

node's still running though. it's been up for 4.5 days approx

finding blocks is taking just a bit longer then usual. nothing to worry about

i'm not worried at all

but i guess the more i understand the more helpful i can be in the future

i'm used to the idea that people will try to distrupt the network. i'm determined to help out but i'm kind of useless

useless? nothing is as useless as »Useless Ethereum Token« (UET®) coinmarketcap.com/currencies/useless-ethereum-token

h2017: If you type status into monerod, what does it report?

Even not having a block for twenty minutes is within the realm of possibilities

yea, it happens often

sometimes also due to a large hashrate change

Hello I'm experiencing a strange issue on my monero nano S

Whenever I try to send money, the address it wants me to confirm on is the same, and not where I put into the GUI to send to

which address does get displayed?

is it your own address?

no, its not my address that is displays

Its an address I don't recognize, but the same one no matter who I try and send to

can you enter the address you want to send funds to on line 8 here: xmr.llcoins.net/addresstests.html

and click on check and compare if the ledger displays line 15

which OS are you using?

I am on MacOS 10.13.6

ok, which GUI version are you using?

0.17.1.6-cc352e4 (Qt 5.12.8)

Yes, it displays on line 15

what does that mean?

it means it is an integrated address

which is base address + payment id written as one address

the ledger displays the base address so it is different

It looked like that address was coming up even when I was sending it elsewhere, So the ledger and GUI aren't supposed to match?

I don’t know which site you were using to generate addresses

as a test you can try the address from getmonero.org/get-started/contributing

you don’t have to send any funds

it should correctly display 888tNkZrPN6JsEgekjMnABU4TBzc2Dt29EPAvkRxbANsAnjyPbb3iQ1YBRk1UXcdRsiKc9dhwMVgN5S9cQUiyoogDavup3H

if someday monero is banned from all centrealised exchanges would it be possible to propogate atomic swap market prices throughout the p2p network (i can't see why not)?

h2017: Would you mind removing your reddit thread btw?

which one?

People can get spooked by the message

it's not my thread

This one? old.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/kq…blocks_in_the_last_20_minutes_there

Same pastebin

not my thread not my pastebin

he posted the pastebin link in the thread iircc

he (or she)

ok

i wouldn't post something like that in the first place

it piqued my curiosity i admit but unless i knew something was wrong i wouldn't post it and really if there's some kind of problem i rely on the network devels for public communication

i downvoted it

Hello all. Is the following hosting solution OK for a node: my.letbox.com/cart.php?a=confproduct&i=3

mnt_grrrl, I can only ever get speed tests to do it around 900 both up and down. Think it's Mbps but not sure what that translates into the daemon, I can never make them match

ohmysomuchuser, what plan

print_net_stats will change the ending line to be something different each time you change "limit" but I can't find the right numbers to match 900 Mbps

It always gives MB/s

GB/s

TB/s

I think I'm on 1GB/s

E5-250GB or E5-DL300

ohmysomuchuser looks a bit overpriced for what they offer - it seems to me that a lot of those resources are not "dedicated" to you but shared among multiple users? so performance won't be great probably

endor00[m], thank you. I'm new to this. Just hoping to do my bit.

I felt the same thing. I am using evolution-host.com and paying 10 eud

I will keep looking.

mnt_grrrl, thank you. I will have a look.

ohmysomuchuser, it looks like me speed is pretty good comparing it to Kronovestan

I've got a question

evolution-host 10EUR option is sold out.

Since monero forked from bytecoin, do they share the same genesys block?

as of now?

it was a code fork not a chain fork so no

thanks

evolution-host.com/vps-hosting.php does not look sold out

and the code now bears little resemblance to bytecoin/cryptonote

Can you help me understand the my.letbox.com "RB1 RBox" option?

ohmysomuchuser, yes you can pm me if that is easier

mnt_grrrl, it says "out of stock" when I try to order.

ohmysomuchuser, try the $5 with a storage upgrade

what's the name of the monero trading channel again?

#monero-markets

or were you asking about reditt

mnt_grrrl, mine costs $65USD/mo

nioc that's the one - thanks

:)

can anyone here recommend a linux daemon which maintains a local database mirror of historical and current coin prices?

rbrunner7, ISP is fine with the output as the glass is dedicated. I just learned today form talking to the ISP manager that the modem on the glass connection has 4 ethernet plugs and I'm only using 1. I have 3 more connections I can use with 3 more IP addresses I'm already paying for but not using. Setting that up now.

Kronovestan, wow that is pricy

funny I was thinking that's hella cheap

mnt_grrrl, I live next door and am able to string an ethernet cord over the street in pvc pipe.. I feel blessed actually

oh I thought you where just paying for hosting not bandwidth to your home

;)

I'm renting space for ETH/XMR miners and happen to live right next door

ah may I pm?

sure

are there specific location where hosts are needed currently?

I think that's best asked on #monero-dev

77(in) connections.. yay it's growing!

how do I run status, print_net_stats if I am running monerod in detach mode

If you used my guide just do monerod command

Like:

monerod print_net_stats

If not then just specify the full path to the binary for monerod

perfect
