Anyone here using the latest master? The difference in syncing from scratch is HUGE, for comparison I tried to sync Boolberry that some trolls like to say how its so much better than Monero™ (for some reason besides the dev skimming 1% of all blocks and doing nothing) and I coudn't tell the difference.

americanpegasus is setting up an AMA with DOGE. It is a wonderful idea but should be a two way street. Lets follow their community as well. There is a lot we can learn from them

Please join, Reddit, Twitter, QQ, Facebook and more.

getmonero and bitcointalk are important but are only a small part of the world we are trying to reach

feel free to check out safedice.com  check safedice's stats for xmr(and btc ofc) at dicesites.com. there is definitly demand for gambling with xmr, since we've experienced nice organic growth from the start.

Here on BCT you click reply and then write your post.  If you do that on Monero Forums you get the error "whoops something went wrong".  There you have to write your post and then hit reply,  Fluffypony said they were going to change the error handling, I guess to something more informative.

The thing is I used to know how to post on MF

What's up with all the new reddit subscriptions? We used to gain a handfull a week whereas last week we got a 100 or so. A lot of them have names with xmr/monero in them too, I'm a bit sceptic this being 'natural' actually. Or is someone actively promoting?

Atleast the newcomers are asking genuine questions instead of the reverse trolling that is going on here at bitcointalk. Also, because it is our own subreddit people will mind less which kind of questions or topics are stated than here on bitcointalk.

Since my last post on the topic, here's an overview of the main changes pushed to bitmonero master:

- Russian and German word lists are now available for seeds.

- An option in simplewallet to always confirm a transfer with the user (currently, it only does if the transfer needs to be split in more than one tx). To use: set always-confirm-transfers 1. You will need to supply your wallet password, as this is a persistent option that gets saved to the wallet.

- An experimental new tx construction algorithm, which should fix problems when trying to send a large part of one's balance. It's a new simplewallet command (transfer_new), so the usual transfer command still works as it used to. Please report any problems with it if you try it. Note that using it is safe if you set always-confirm-transfers 1, since you can always say no. set_log 1 will log the new transactions to simplewallet.log regardless.

And last, a number of smaller fixes went in: from unit tests to word list tweaks, build system issues, and misc cleanup.

Short version:

Long version (for 14.04):

i dont know who made it, but i guess the wordlists for other languages need to be created from scratch and have to pass the same check as the english one.
the first 3 letters of every word have to be unique.

please correct if i'm  wrong.

You are correct.
