"Transaction extra has unsupported format: <xxx>" Does anyone know what client is adding these? I wonder if there is anything intresting in there?

Hello . I would appreciate your help and advice! I am looking for an article or video where I can learn how to get a wallet and put 10 euros in it. I do not consider transfers or other coins. Conditionally, I now have 10 euros and I want them to turn out to be monero in the shortest possible time. Thanks.

That's an interesting question. I think Cake wallet simplifies fiat conversion but I don't have a link to an article/video about it.

localmonero -> feather wallet

when you install feather wallet, send me an address I will send you 10$ in xmr

Thank you for your replies! I think this is the main question and the very first of any person who wants to use nonero )) I have 10 euros I want to convert them to mobero. How can I do it ? Do not use conversion and do not use other coins ( bitcoin etc)

check haveno exchange

Because when they start telling you about an exchange or other schemes, it confuses a person. It should be simple even in one or two steps! This is my point of view, maybe I'm wrong))

It's the same thing as with other crypto

You're not wrong, but dealing with fiat is hard because lots of regulations and spying and red tape involved, so very few will do it.

I like the philosophy of xmr . I don't mean dirty schemes. The idea itself looks great to me! So what do you recommend for me to start my difficult path))

haveno exchange?

it's work in progress

hi team, can check with you all we have some syncing issue with monero wallet

require to sync 300+k blocks but is not running

can check is there a more efficient way?

luigi1112

Can you express more clearly what you're asking ?

Is it "I have problems syncing ny wallet, please help" ?

moneromooo yes currently we having issue syncing the wallet , basically it shows "Waiting for darmon to sync","Daemon blocks reamianing: 392243"

remaining*

Is that number going down with time ?

seems like it stuck

any suggestion?

OK, then restart monerod with --log-level 1, then wait a bit for it to either start syncing again or log some errors.

okay noted thanks

If the latter, paste the errors and a couple dozen lines before the error to paste.debian.net.

let us try

thanks will get back in awhile

(you don't have to be running the wallet for this btw, just monerod)

is slowly updating moneromooo thanks

sech1: we can also chat here if it's more convenient for you

(or in PM, in re vanity address thing)

by the way, could very well be i just don't know the addressing format as well as you do :) (cf. bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5394915.msg59896701#msg59896701)

I got curious about that seeming error in address generation by sech1 's new vanity address generator

I also checked with xmr.llcoins.net/addresstests.html

If I put the bits in question - 651507438fb1691ec1c617ea1773ad93b0036fd79295ee8173c98f4c6de72e0c - into input box "2. Hexadecimal Seed" and click forward

everything seems to play out and generate the same address as the generator spits out

If I put the bits into "3. Private Spend Key" strange things happen

Then the only way to get something into "4. Private View Key" seems to push the "Gen 4. (Audit Addr)" button

and I have really no idea what *that* button should do: How can you go from a spend public key to a view private key in any sensible way?

It should be easy to fix. I'll check this

(This refers to the things detailed here by copypaste this morning here: bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5394915.msg59896701#msg59896701

monero-wallet-cli says "46SPEAKZWk9PtTM2Ziitmh5msxYDowPbNPKxid2wwUVBgghMzxPJMTBTZr8S6ngick7tmNUapWRsSd8ouAJdsPKU17gHfr9"

No, after playing around, I think your address derivation is correct, but Luigi's page does something strange, wrong, or unexpected

How did you get the CLI wallet to give you the address? You can't use only the spend private key there, can you?

To restore

just restore it from the spend key, it prints out the address after it asks you for the seed language

or you can type "address" command in CLI wallet

My own monerotech.info website badly needs a way to input spend private key and derive the rest, instead of always starting with the seed

What's the command / option you use for restore?

./monero-wallet-cli --offline --generate-from-spend-key wallet_name

don't paste spend key in the command line - the last token there is wallet file name, not spend key

Ah, ok, my bad, I simply overlooked that possibility so far. Was convinced you can't restore from spend private key alone.

private view key is derived from the spend key by default

so spend key is all you need

25-word seed just encodes the spend key

I was thinking the CLI wallet misses functionality

I was always only looking among the "--restore..." options and completely missed the "--generate-from" family of options

i love the new alias

CLI wallet doesn't miss functionality, it's literally a swiss knife for Monero

"25-word seed just encodes the spend key" I know :) I built monerotech.info/Home/Seed

Still wondering what that " "Gen 4. (Audit Addr)" button on Luigi's addresstests page could sensibly do. No idea, really.

What are the major consensus changes with this new hardfork?

View tags, fees, bulletptroofs+.

Ring size.

sech1: what do you think of outputting the view key as well?

the only reason this is a problem is because mymonero (stupidly imo) requires it, and it choked on the llcoins.net page

so i just clicked around until it satisfied mymonero, it's very odd

if you say your key is right that i can import llcoins keys into MM. but maybe MM and llcoins share a bug, i don't know

oh and of course i agree in principle that monerod is the reference implementation so what it says goes, i just really wonder what's wrong with MM as it's more popular

copypaste: what are you experiencing?

and why it requires viewkeys…people will try to derive them to use with MM and result in trrouble

i read the scrollback but couldnt figure out what you're seeing

endogenic: no problem :) basically addresses generated with the new CUDA vanity address generator aren't importable into mymonero

because they have no viewkey. so i tried to make a viewkey, and that resulted in me realizing llcoins.net page, which derives viewkeys, results in a different address than the new CUDA address generato

so it means, either the new generator is wrong, or llcoins.net & mymonero are wrong together

you cant get a viewkey from an addr. you need the seed or spend key first

yes, i mean that

the new generator gives you the public address and the spendkey but no viewkey

mymonero requires the viewkey

different addr than the cuda generator huh

yes

but weirdly still with the desirable prefix

sech1 wrote "The second half of Monero address is a public view key" and that's all that's wrong

makes me wonder if someone is missing a scalar reduce or something somewhere

maybe mymonero/llcoins.net is wrongly deriving viewkeys, or the vanitygen is.

the new vanitygen is very cool btw, no big complaints from me hehe

it still works if you know this problem

you're talking about SChernykh's generator right?

i have to look at how it is written

f83224befaf2113d866386d3051624dc8e979798bc43d5385e0ab4fb45d70c0f 42fUcKyEAHMaqdzjHbamsxDsGfT4GE2aj7tFdgM1vgbY52nRKXQAkx9WdHPQQwrp6gKy8xN4HRtTtRGrNce72ocPH3TRmRK

it's very unlikely mymonero has a but there btw

bug

there's one of the new addresses

you can see if you try to convert the spendkey

you'll get a diff address

but still beginning with 42fUcKyEAH…

lol^

lol

see my Q above pls

oh yes. i'm the one that paid for it

kopipe is japanese for copypaste

link?

well, i haven't paid for it yet because i haven't caught sech1 online to discuss if he wants me to make a new address and publish its viewkey when i pay him so there's public proof i did

or if he wants to do that

since i think monero viewkeys area only good for incoming not outgoing?

both

oh ok so either of us can

so... do you have a link to the generator i can look at?

bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5394915.msg59884817 bounty thread

i would need to review its source code

github.com/SChernykh/vanity_xmr_cuda/tree/main/src gen source

i know i was getting both :)

arigatou

問題ない

i actually know dick about monero and could not have done this in a reasonable timeframe myself which is why i just made a bounty. i expected it to be a while. sech1 is too good

sech1 importing the calculated spend private key into monero-wallet-cli using "--generate-from-spend-key" wallet creation option

and then getting the same public address for the wallet that the generator calculated IMHO proves pretty much that on the generator side everything is ok

So if MyMonero for technical reasons needs the view private key as well easiest would indeed be making the generator giving that out as well

Probably an almost trivial change, and should do no harm

cool, okay

you should verify the cause of the discrepancy though

btw sech1 i'm adding more search modes

I think the only unknown left is what the "Gen 4. (Audit Addr)" button on xmr.llcoins.net/addresstests.html doing, or is supposed to do

it calls a function pubToView which does sc_reduce32(cn_fast_hash(pubSpend.value));

if that helps. means not much to me.

cn_fast_hash and sc_reduce32 is how private view key is generated from the private spend key

Right. That's where it gets confusing: I posit deriving a private key from a public key can't possibly work, obviously :)

hi sech1 :D

The function behind the button takes the spend *public* key and sets the view *private* key. What can this be good for, at all?

copypaste I'll create a new Monero address with viewkey to receive the bounty

posted it in bitcointalk thread

sech1: 12 XMR ok? also asked there

doing a swap right now

hehe

yes, 12 XMR ok

okay :D just waiting for confirmations and i'll send it. thanks so much !

if you want general programming work i can make that happen too — but doubt you are interested

fonts related. dba.gg is my personal site, that kind of stuff. fonts and font editors ( mfek.org , fontforge.org ).

sech1: oh please put that in the bitcointalk thread just so everything's kosher

sure

fonts are not my speciality :D

font editors might be ;-) lots of math stuff

certainly that problem may not interest you, but that's the typical code my little foundation usually sponsors :P

sigh does anyone know why MyMonero demands so many confirms to send?

that's an annoying issue, you should be able to send on top of one confirm

10-15 confirms is normal for exchanges

that is true, but technically

you can send after one exchange

mymonero is an open source wallet

it's a light wallet

there's always 10 confirmations limit

in network consensus

oh really

okay, that's a difference of this coin

other coins i think let you build up chains of unvalidated?

yes, Monero has this limitation. There have been talks about fixing it

maybe we have more to do together after all ;)

(it's at 7 confirms)

For remote nodes, clients just get whole blocks from the remote node, right? How does the client determine which blocks are needed?

all of them are needed

I finally finished my monero QR code graphic: i.ibb.co/Vm1yCJW/monero-qr-750.png

not gonna lie, I'm pretty proud of it ;P

sech1: paid :) bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5394915.new#new

as someone who doesn't know how to make graphics, inkscape is hella confusing!

i work on fonts for a living, the handwriting really needs work; even though it's supposed to be "bad" it is glaring that both a's are the same

many people use fonts when what they want is lettering ;-)

although some fonts do have many versions of letters, e.g. some of mine like TT2020 / Quaerite Regnum Dei, of course neither would work there, just examples. FF Duper is a more fitting one maybe

do you have any recommendations?

something free I can replace it with...

I just use the Odysee font as that's where I'll post it (in the description of my videos).

sech1: sorry i have to do that again. that was an expensive lesson, lmao. but it's cryptocurrency, that's far from the first time i've made a stupid mistake

that tx is invalid

if it's invalid, it will not be mined

uh, invalid in the sense that i fatally misunderstood something

it was my understanding that the payment ID field in MyMonero correlated to the "extra" field in a Monero tx

Height 2604766, txid <2d84f1d38a6d149ce66f1f13507a55600e67436b16ca821f5f7c607a89ac93f9>, 12.000000000000, idx 0/0

and i could put anything there. not so.

I can see it in my wallet

really?

this program is broken

that's where it says it went to

i'm done using it for anything

it can't get anything right

you don't need to fill in any payment ID or extra

i know

i thoguht it would be funny

so you did get it then?

My wallet shows it, so yes :D

But I don't mind if you try again :D

hahaha xD

thanks a lot for your honesty!

i have no clue what's up with MyMonero

Block 2604766, which included this tx, was mined by p2pool

ironic

sech1: ha

well that was frustrating but i was eventually able to sort it and i lost no money :)

better than how most of my crypto oopsies go

tip for the future: always send small amount first and wait for confirmation from the other party

that also applies when moving funds to your own new wallet
