swrangsar have got a gpu but the pc doesn't have onboard integrated graphics, 
- 
swrangsar so not certain if it's possible to mine on a gpu that's the only card generating video output to the monitor 
- 
swrangsar while mining xmr on the cpu 
- 
showcontroller I have my nick registered. That might be why it works for me 
- 
nioc you can mine with GPU and still have output to monitor 
- 
nioc GPU cab walk and chew gum 
- 
nioc you can also use CPU while mining with it 
- 
swrangsar it's a radeon rx 550, has only 4gb of memory and the os is linux 
- 
nioc it will give up mining resources to so other tasks 
- 
nioc *to do 
- 
nioc I have RX 570 4gb windows 
- 
Quotes fuck windows, use linux! 
- 
nioc I would bit quotes but imma stewpid 
- 
nioc *bot quotes 
- 
swrangsar with a 4gb gpu, it may be possible to mine ravencoin, but ether i don't know 
- 
nioc I mined a bit back in the day but it did not require much memory 
- 
nioc I don't think eth is worth it now 
- 
nioc with that, even if it would mine 
- 
showcontroller How do y'all feel about ada? 
- 
as2333 does it scale? 
- 
showcontroller From what I've seen, it should be pretty capable of scaling 
- 
showcontroller Fees are currently pretty low

Whyvn hello, If i am running a node on my local network. What are the requirements to use that node from another computer using the wallet-cli? I tried using --daemon-address 192.168.0.2:18081 with prot 18081 being open on the computer running the node, but it doesnt seem to connect. Are there other requirements needing? Sould there be a user such as --daemon-address user⊙110:18081? 
- 
hyc I thought ada isn't in production yet 
- 
hyc Whyvn: by default the daemon only listens to 127.0.0.1:18081 
- 
hyc so you need to start it up listening on 192.168.0.2 otherwise it won't be reachable 
- 
Whyvn hyc: ok thanks, that makes sense.

itsaka[m] Hello guys, 
- 
itsaka[m] What think for Bitcoinera.app 
- 
gyt0 I've noticed at logs that many times daemon had stopped syncing. 'monerod is now disconnected from the network' 
- 
Infinity8 gyt0: it means you lost connection to the internet 
- 
Infinity8 port, firewall, or anti-virus closed off access 
- 
gyt0 Infinity8, no AV, firewall allows outgoing connections 
- 
gyt0 it happens every ca. 30 min. 
- 
Infinity8 what about your router? 
- 
gyt0 Infinity8, there is no problem with my router 
- 
gyt0 [167.86.93.211:18080 OUT], [167.86.93.211:18080 OUT], [94.176.232.92:18080 OUT], [35.168.113.182:18080 OUT], ...

Traveller37 Hello all 
- 
Infinity8 gyt0: if you're still connected to internet then i don't know 
- 
Traveller37 i have a question 
- 
Infinity8 what does monerod say when you type "status" ? 
- 
Infinity8 Traveller37: ok 
- 
Traveller37 i just installed the wallet in advanced mode, with local daemon, when the computer got sleep, the process started from beginning! 
- 
Traveller37 is there anything i can do to avoid this? 
- 
Infinity8 what process? 
- 
Traveller37 it seems need more time to synchronize and maybe i will need to close the laptop for awhile is there anything i can do? 
- 
Infinity8 is the daemon hosted on the same machine? 
- 
Traveller37 yes 
- 
Traveller37 same machine 
- 
Infinity8 wallet needs to sync every time 
- 
Traveller37 currently its waiting for daemon to sync 
- 
moneromooo Are you sure it started from the beginning ? Did the wallet die ? Chances are it only grabbed blocks that arrived since it went to sleep. 
- 
Infinity8 to catch up with transactions 
- 
Traveller37 aha 
- 
Traveller37 so i can turn off the machine, before finishing 
- 
Infinity8 it shouldn't sync from block 1 but it will start from where it left off 
- 
Infinity8 yes 
- 
Traveller37 without worrying about restarting from the beginning ? 
- 
Infinity8 it should start off from where it left off. if you close it properly 
- 
Traveller37 and i just close the wallet gui? 
- 
Traveller37 i can send the kill signal 15 to process if its better 
- 
Traveller37 or both same? 
- 
Infinity8 just quit it in the GUI 
- 
Traveller37 okay, thank you very much 
- 
Traveller37 i have another question btw 
- 
Infinity8 only time you need to start from beginning is if you're importing a seed and need to re-scan the blockchain to catch up on the transactions sent/received prior 
- 
Traveller37 i don't know what is seed importing, i will try to read more about it 
- 
moneromooo It means if you recreate your wallet after you deleted it. You would not do that normally. 
- 
Traveller37 i would like to ask, as i run the wallet and daemon (both in same computer) from an internal IP located behind a NAT, is there any ports need to be open or forwarded ? 
- 
Traveller37 moneromooo: thank you! 
- 
moneromooo 18080 for p2p connections. 
- 
Traveller37 is there a need to it ? 
- 
moneromooo It's not strictly needed, but is better. 
- 
Traveller37 i am not going to mine on this computer 
- 
moneromooo Mining does not need extra ports. 
- 
Traveller37 i want just to get the wallet on this computer 
- 
Traveller37 ok, but why the daemon need to p2p connection? 
- 
Traveller37 is it accelerating the process ? 
- 
Infinity8 to sync with the blockchain 
- 
Infinity8 from other peers 
- 
Traveller37 okay, and without doing this, what could i face? 
- 
Infinity8 it's even faster if you keep it on an ssd 
- 
Traveller37 i am switching between several connections indeed, some i can open ports in, others most probably i cannot 
- 
moneromooo It does not accelerate, but if strengthens your connection to the network. 
- 
Traveller37 okay 
- 
Traveller37 Thank you again 
- 
moneromooo Well, it does accelerate getting new blocks after first sync, on average, typically. 
- 
moneromooo But you usually don't really care unless you're a pool or the like. 
- 
Infinity8 if you want to accelerate your wallet syncing with the daemon you can keep the daemon on an ssd 
- 
Infinity8 otherwise it's pretty slow 
- 
Traveller37 actually i did so, but i ran out of space fast, and i did not have option but stop the vm move it to another external HD and start it 
- 
Infinity8 it'll still work on a hd 
- 
Traveller37 maybe after finishing it, and get clear idea about the total size, i will clone it back to SSD 
- 
Traveller37 but i really don't know how its going to grow :) 
- 
Infinity8 infinite i think lol 
- 
Traveller37 lol 
- 
Traveller37 i spent whole yesterday trying to run the wallet on Centos 
- 
Traveller37 built many libraries from source code 
- 
Traveller37 compiled with different options :D 
- 
Infinity8 my node machine is so slow i can't even compile it 
- 
Traveller37 then finally i had it running on debian 
- 
Infinity8 it just kills the compiling process because it maxed out my ram and swap 
- 
Traveller37 oh 
- 
Traveller37 but once i get the wallet running 
- 
Traveller37 i can start running the pool mining on other computers correct? 
- 
Traveller37 it should be done using the wallet ID 
- 
Infinity8 sub-addresses yes 
- 
Infinity8 you can mine before that even 
- 
Traveller37 how ? 
- 
Infinity8 you just won't see the withdrawal until your wallet syncs up with the daemon 
- 
Traveller37 okay i can wait its OK 
- 
Infinity8 you can start receiving transactions now 
- 
Traveller37 but when it finish, it will give a clear notification ? 
- 
Infinity8 yes, up-to-date information 
- 
Traveller37 ok 
- 
Traveller37 and then how often i need the wallet machine being open? 
- 
Traveller37 again its wallet + Daemon in one single VM 
- 
Infinity8 as often as you want to see your monero accumulate 
- 
Traveller37 so i can just open it once at evening or so ? 
- 
Traveller37 and check 
- 
Traveller37 i have about 20mbps conneciton 
- 
Traveller37 connection* 
- 
Infinity8 you don't even need the daemon to generate addresses 
- 
Infinity8 it's just to catch up with the blockchain so you can verify the transaction yourself rather than trusting some dodgy website 
- 
Infinity8 which can compromise your privacy 
- 
Traveller37 Okay 
- 
Traveller37 your clear answers makes me want to ask more :) 
- 
Infinity8 or trusting a remote node you don't have control over 
- 
Infinity8 which is why it's a good idea to run your own daemon 
- 
Traveller37 yes this is exactly what i thought 
- 
Traveller37 and i can secure it 
- 
Traveller37 but the idea of joining a pool is it safe? 
- 
Traveller37 i m not sure how my resources can work 
- 
Traveller37 so i simply testing water 
- 
Infinity8 what do you mean safe? 
- 
Infinity8 there's history of bad pools that don't pay miners out or distribute malicious mining software 
- 
Traveller37 mm 
- 
Traveller37 what is the safest one ? 
- 
Traveller37 also if they don't pay, i think i will notice that from the wallet 
- 
Traveller37 correct? 
- 
Infinity8 usually they pay you out once you meet the minimum payout 
- 
Infinity8 there's a list of pools here:  miningpoolstats.stream/monero
- 
Infinity8 xmrig and xmr-stak-rx are commonly used miners. just make sure you get them off github 
- 
Traveller37 they transfer it directly to the wallet 
- 
Traveller37 ? 
- 
Infinity8 yes 
- 
Traveller37 yes i was checking their compiling option 
- 
Traveller37 i think you can decrease the donation rate from the source code before compiling 
- 
Infinity8 i don't recommend mining to minexmr or supportxmr to support decentralization 
- 
Traveller37 thanks a ton Infinity8 
- 
Infinity8 there's usually pool fee as well

charolastra trying to set up a view only wallet on Cake Wallet. i'm on 'restore from seed'. do i paste the view key there? 
- 
rupee[m] swipe to the next screen 
- 
rupee[m] Restore from keys 
- 
rupee[m] if you restore from seed it will not be view-only. You need to restore from keys and only provide the view key (and address) 
- 
charolastra aah, thanks, the swipe option isn't that obvious 
- 
charolastra is there a reason why mobile wallets (only tested cake and monerujo, but even the desktop GUI does it) display tiny QR codes? cake wallet even has a white QR on a bright background, making it not really standard complient

apotheon What does anyone here know about Wookey Wallet (for Android)? 
- 
apotheon s/Wookey/WooKey/ 
- 
rupee[m] i had never heard of it. it sounds good from the website. Looking at github, the last commit was to upgrate to monero v0.17.1.1, which is not the latest version of monero 
- 
apotheon Yeah, it's woefully out of date, as I just discovered. 
- 
apotheon It hasn't had an update to the public repository since October. 
- 
apotheon oh well 
- 
apotheon never mind 
- 
rupee[m] a wallet for monero and dash. the coins that are more private and less private than bitcoin, respectively 
- 
apotheon Less private? 
- 
apotheon That seems like a high bar. 
- 
apotheon How is it *less* private than BTC? 
- 
rupee[m] better mixers available for btc 
- 
moneromooo And most likely tiny user base. 
- 
rupee[m] "This means from a technical standpoint, Dash’s privacy functionality is no greater than Bitcoin’s, making the label of “privacy coin” a misnomer for Dash. In fact, independent wallet softwares provide more advanced forms of CoinJoin that are being used with major cryptocurrencies not labeled as privacy coins, such as Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, and Litecoin." 
- 
rupee[m] 
- 
apotheon rupee[m]: Ah, I see.  Thanks. 
- 
rupee[m] pretty funny, right? 
- 
apotheon Now I just need to figure out some stuff about what governments seem likely to do with cryptocurrencies in the next decade or two, for scifi purposes. 
- 
apotheon rupee[m]: Funny?  Sure, in a way. 
- 
apotheon . . . like a clown that cries on the inside.

- 
JordiSole[m] someone spanish? 
- 
moneromooo Every tx is an AI complete program. And govts have hidden spying/backdoor AIs within those. 
- 
rupee[m] i mean, it's awful to give users a false sense of privacy, but if you endured the wrath of the dash crowd in the early days, you have to smile 
- 
moneromooo But many govts did so, and every tx is now a battlefield between govt AIs... 
- 
apotheon err 
- 
Mochi102 Sounds like a good plot for a video game moneromooo 
- 
apotheon I'm just trying to figure out the likely things for the sake of background material for a story that's not specifically about what gub'mints are doing with cryptocurrencies. 
- 
moneromooo Every tx is an AI complete program. And corps have hidden spying/backdoor AIs within those. 
- 
moneromooo But many corps did so, and every tx is now a battlefield between corp AIs... 
- 
moneromooo (you did kind of say "governments" in your question, so I assumed you were asking about governments) 
- 
apotheon um 
- 
moneromooo Or... 
- 
JordiSole[m] a pool paid me a little amount but I don't see this amount in my balance. The transaction is OK, I verified it, what could be happened? Please, can somebody help me? 
- 
apotheon I'm asking about governments.  I'm asking about likely things as background info, though, not story premises. 
- 
moneromooo AIs stash child AIs in txe.s.. 
- 
apotheon Your musings are story premises. 
- 
apotheon You should write them. 
- 
moneromooo JordiSole[m]: is the value of "refresh-from-block-height" higher than the height your tx got mined ? 
- 
as2333 apotheon, most cryptocurrencies are surveillance tools. So they will use them. 
- 
JordiSole[m] moneromooo: no, the height in my wallet is up to date 
- 
JordiSole[m] tthey did the tx one month ago 
- 
apotheon as2333: True -- already the case, increasingly. 
- 
moneromooo This is not what I asked. 
- 
rupee[m] <JordiSole[m] "someone spanish?"> mira #moneroes 
- 
as2333 apotheon, indeed - there's no fiction about it 
- 
moneromooo Are you using monero-wallet-cli, monore-wallet-gui, or another ? 
- 
JordiSole[m] monero-wallet-gui 
- 
moneromooo In options, there should be some setting called "refresh height", or "rescan height" or the like. 
- 
moneromooo This value should be <= the height of your tx a month ago. 
- 
JordiSole[m] ok thanks, I try to look it 
- 
moneromooo If it's not, you need to set it so, then rescan the wallet. 
- 
JordiSole[m] what do you mean with "rescan" 
- 
JordiSole[m] ? 
- 
moneromooo Look at all txes from the chain from this new height again.
