Monero Finally Releases An Official GUI Wallet
Monero(XMR) has had nice price jump back in September and I remember someone saying, "how is Monero having a such a price increase when they don't even have an official wallet to their Monero core." I didn't even realize that until a couple months ago and news today from the Monero team release the beta of their official GUI wallet for Monero core.
Known Issues
Due to several important updates, 0.10.1 wallet binaries will not work with with wallets created by the GUI. You need use the binaries included in the package instead. Note: you can definitely use the 0.10.1 daemon:)
If you have been testing earlier builds you may have to delete your configs. There is a guide describing how to do this on this StackExchange post.
Older computers may have an issue with the QT renderer, and will either crash or display a white / black window. You can change the rendering mode as described on this StackExchange post.

Wow, looks great! :D a user friendly interface!
Upvoted and resteemed.
Yea it doesn't look too bad. Thank you for the support.
Finally! I was surprised to see Monero didn't have any wallets GUI wallets available when I wanted to use it just a month back.
Yea ikr! I am surprised it did so well this long without one.
You kind of beat me too this. I have been messing with trying to get the wallet to work for the last couple of hours. Tried on openSuSE LEAP 42.1, OpenSuSE 12.3, and then ultimately got it to work using Wine and connecting to a remote node.
I will still do a post on my issues to see if someone can answer what is happening when I try to run it natively in openSuSE.
What OS are you using? use the 2nodez.moneroworld.com:18081 remote node. the other one is incompatable
I got it to work inside Wine on OpenSuSE LEAP 42.1. I connected to node.moneroworld.com. It is connected. I sent a tiny bit just now from Poloniex to test it. Still waiting on it. What OS are you running? On Reddit it looks like a lot of different people using Windows and Linux are having various issues.
using this on windows. Just got it to run and try out but not really using it to send monero. not until a more stable version is out.
Yeah that makes sense. One guy on Reddit was saying he had $15,000 of Monero in there already. LOL
My transaction just came through.
Also more exciting news. On Reddit they posted a screenshot of the Jaxx wallet with XMR on it. so that is comming as well!
Great to hear!, Thanks for sharing! :)
You're welcome :)
