Is having zero incoming connections in Monerod normal when using a vpn?
-
ndorf
andrewjackson1: yes. you share an IP address with lots (hopefully) of other people, and there is no way to accept an inbound connection
-
ndorf
andrewjackson1: some VPN providers do offer a single random inbound port, though. you'll have to check your provider. if they do, you could probably use that as an inbound monero port
-
andrewjackson1
Ok thanks, no problem then :)

selsta nah we're still good. been restarting the node once a day to apply the ban list because of the ban freezing issue, could conceivably be preventing the issue from cropping up. or it's rare, or the ban list is taking care of it. idk

aum_
can anyone recommend a good multi-currency wallet that can run on Linux?
-
aum_
ie, a software app that can implement wallets for each of numerous currencies such as XMR, BTC, ETH etc?
-
sethsimmons
Exodus if it runs on Linux
-
sethsimmons
Not sure past that
-
aum_
ok, sethsimmons, thanks, will check

monerofanboy
"Is having zero incoming connections in Monerod normal when using a vpn?" depending upon your use case, you may want to consider a vpn with a static ip. Once again, it all depends upon your use case.
-
monerofanboy
Most vpns with a static IPs keep all of their ports opens (they may filter port 25 to limit spammers) Once again, it all depends upon your use case. If privacy is paramount, don't use a vpn with a static ip.

Oh I logged onto the monero-space channel and had this tab open

I'm here, just idle a lot. Leave the window open on my compy sometimes.

Wild day huh. Shows how much one can trust the stability of their government. Imaginary silliness, all of it.
-
orly_owl
what happened today? >_>
-
americanpegasus
Eh, I don't want to flood the channel with off topic chatter, but just referring to the incident at the US Capitol
-
orly_owl
ok
-
americanpegasus
Basically when I used to talk to people about bitcoin in 2014 and say that it was stronger than government backed currency, I'd be laughed at for insinuating that there was anything weak about the stability of the US Government.
-
americanpegasus
If Trump did anything good, he at least showed the complacent Americans that they aren't safe hiding behind their fiat.

question
-
ruderod
-
xmready
bigslim[m]: Correct me if I'm wrong, but the price that institutions bought in at is much higher than people who bought earlier, so comparing confirmed buys to total market cap isn't a representation of what % of bitcoins they own.
-
xmready
I could be wrong I'm not good with maths

ruderod
does anyone know git? I can not get the git command to run under the mingw

urza
Hello, can you please help me with monerod arguments? I would like to run my monero node on nonstandard port that is not advertised to the network, so only people who know the port can connect to me (out conections as normal, in connections only for people who know the port).
-
urza
argument --hide-my-port should do the "not advertising my port" part, but I am a little confused how to set the actuall port..
-
urza
should I use --p2p-bind-port or --p2p-bind-external-port
-
urza
?
-
urza
Also, when I try to connecto to my friend with --add-peer IP:port and then query the connections by "sync_info" command, I don't see that connection, any ideas how to make sure that one of my outgoing connections is to my added peer?
-
urza
I am asing all this, because when I open the port publicly my node crashes after a while, when I am behind closed port (only outgoing connectins) it doesnt crash.. I suppose it is still the attacker doing something..
-
PapaMarxFTW
How is waiting for an autistic guy to get bored working out for you? While you settle in to your new way of life, think positively,you don't need to chase after signs of FUK activity anymore.
-
PapaMarxFTW
jess: Get back to work immediately. This should have been a challenge ^^
-
Lyza
urza --p2p-bind-external-port is not a valid command
-
Lyza
"<urza> Also, when I try to connecto to my friend" --- use --add-priority-node if you want to maintain a constant connection with your friend's node
-
Lyza
also the attacks you are referring to come from tor. should be fixerd in the next version I think but you can also choose to utilize the block list or create your own block list of tor exit nodes
-
Lyza

dortone
hello
-
dortone
do anyone knows how to generate by script monero address
-
dortone
like 20-30
-
dortone
at once
-
dortone
i need to make a payment to multiple people
-
moneromooo
Then ask them for their addresses. If you create them, you have the secret keys, not any good.
-
dortone
i need to test before
-
dortone
monero has not good way of multiple sending
-
dortone
like transfer address1 amount1 address2 amount2
-
edi_
monero-wallet-cli .. ?
-
moneromooo
What is not good about it ?
-
moneromooo
But you can run "address new", it'll give you new addresses for your current wallet so you can try with.
-
dortone
maybe 30 address are too much and script will blow
-
edi_
why would it?
-
dortone
i dont know just im not sure
-
dortone
address new is good but how to do it by script
-
edi_
-
dortone
for i in do ./wallet-cli address new
-
edi_
i'd try a while loop
-
edi_
as long as x is smaller than 30 do "address new"
-
edi_
-
edi_
have fun
-
edi_
:)
-
dortone
will this address go in conf file?
-
dortone
how to extract by script again
-
edi_
you know about programming in bash?
-
dortone
yes but no so much
-
edi_
-
dortone
what is the limit of transfer command ?
-
dortone
i mean 30 transfers is no problem?
-
edi_
sounds like a rather small amount
-
edi_
i'd be expecting trouble going for x100 or smth
-
dortone
this 30 transfers will need how much blocks to unlock
-
dortone
another monero issue...
-
moneromooo
Blocks are at last 300000 bytes. A typical tx is ~2.5 kB. Max effective tx size is about 150 kB. 30 txes get you... 75 kB. Shold be dine.
-
moneromooo
10 blocks to unlock.
-
edi_
ehehe
-
edi_
big issue lol
-
dortone
because of dandelion(transfer is coming from one source) maybe more?
-
edi_
whats the blocktime?
-
moneromooo
2 minutes.
-
orly_owl
2fast2monero
-
dortone
lets say that i have all address in one file.how to transfer not interactive
-
orly_owl
interactive?
-
dortone
by not inserting input
-
dortone
script
-
orly_owl
ah
-
dortone
wallet-cli transfer address1 amount1 address2 amount2
-
moneromooo
I'd use monero-wallet-rpc. I'm not sure monero-wallet-cli would not prompt here.
-
dortone
ok with rpc?
-
urza
@Lyza --p2p-external-bind is. And I am using tor blocklist and still my node gets crashed.
-
dortone
any ready script for transfering with rpc wallet?
-
urza
About my port question.. still would appreciate an answer from someone who knows how it works :)
-
Jaska_
Does your node actually ban those nodes from the list?
-
urza
btw when I do "sync_info" in my node, I see that more than half my connections are stuck at block 2263960 (current now is 2269371)
-
urza
are these malicious nodes? its more then 5000 blocks behind.. and they are all at the same block..
-
Jaska_
do "bans" does it show banned ip's?
-
urza
@Jaska cha.. it doesn't.. some error on my part
-
Jaska_
yup
-
urza
ok, that removed most of my peers :)
-
urza
all remaining are on correct height
-
Adamas[m]
are onion nodes banned by default now?
-
moneromooo
No.
-
Jaska_
exit nodes only I think?
-
sethsimmons
None are banned by default
-
sethsimmons
You can optionally use a banlist or a DNS banlist
-
ndorf
what's the current recommendation regarding those block lists? i'm running with block_tor_new.txt only (no DNS either), and still got hit with some OOM attack
-
moneromooo
Oh that's still going on ? Do you have recent patches ?
-
moneromooo
My node's been behaving nicely for a week or so, so any patch from back then should be enough.
-
ndorf
nope, v0.17.1.8-release -- you're saying there are relevant fixes in the release branch?
-
ndorf
this node has 4GB RAM, so perhaps it is more susceptible
-
ndorf
i have another node with 256GB RAM, that one is completely unaffected :D
-
moneromooo
Mine also does.
-
monerofanboy
256 gb ram? here i thought 128 gb was legit. I am suddenly feeling "server inadequate"
-
monerofanboy
I have not seen any issues on the server with 128gb of ram. I have seen some strange hanging on a few of the VPS servers I have with 8gb of ram.
-
donkeydonkey[m]
i have 32GB on mine and it will almost max it out sometimes and then settle down and keep going
-
Inge-
my node uses 1.36GB - uptime 3 weeks
-
monerofanboy
My workaround has been to script updating the ban list and restarting the deamon on the VPS servers using a crontab. It's work so far. The server with 128 gb ram keeps working though without issue, with the combination of blocklist_tor and the dns blocklist.
-
monerofanboy

How accurate is the monero network in time keeping in the long run? I.e. if I were to say that some event is scheduled for every 60/2*24*7 blocks, how likely is it that this event would keep occuring on the same weekday?
-
hyc
not likely at all
-
hyc
block emission is all random
-
supus
okay, thanks

SlyFerret
I need to build a storefront for my wife's business. Coinpayments looks like the only supported Shopify integration for crypto that includes XMR. Is this a good combination?
-
SlyFerret
I'm new to the small business ecommerce space, and Shopify is the one I keep hearing about, so that is the first one I looked at.
-
hyc
if you're selling individual items shopify seems well suited to that
-
hyc
not a good fit for collections of items
-
SlyFerret
It would be books, artwork prints, and other merchandise.
-
hyc
sounds like it'll work
-
supus
with shopify your shop will be tied to them. If you want more freedom and control at the expense of more work and a steeper learning curve you could also use WooCommerce with the Monero WooCommerce Extension
-
supus
There you will receive monero payments directly to your wallet. Noone inbetween but also no fiat conversion
-
hyc
on that note, Shopify just shut down Trump's online store
-
hyc
but if you steer clear of politically affiliated merchandise you should be safe

FUK has been intensely hostile to Monero for over 4 years. Making miners for Monero, making a pool for Monero, making code that Monero copied, not using bugs to steal millions from exchanges. Wow. Such great hostility.
