Can someone give me an explanation on why NXT is good?
What's with those photos on their site? Are those real NXT devs or just a bunch of stock photos of random people?
*SNIPPED*
the more interesting question is what do you think?
About the photos or NXT in general. I see that the photos were from an unofficial site.
This is the best explanation up on NXT I've read
http://deadloch.com/nxt-explained/It seems promising, but will it be supported or become a flash in the pan that is dropped when the new new thing comes along.
The
"official" site of NXT is this
http://www.nxt.org/and i cannot see any photos like you are saying.
If the
http://www.nxtcommunity.org/ is an unoffical site, then that clears it up. Thanks for the clarification.
Er, its already been mentioned, but NXT is seriously de-centralised and so pretty much all NXT sites can be seen as official.
This de-centralisation is one of the great strengths of NXT......it means that no-one in the NXT community is so important that they cannot be replaced.
One of the most common reasons for a currency to fail is that the core devs/community leaders either run off with your money, or turn out to be idiots, or stop supporting the currency and move on to the next get-rich-quick scheme. With NXT, this isn't a problem. The original dev for the NXT core code was replaced a long time ago, for example.
The pics on
www.nxtcommunity.org are stock, but the plan is to replace the stock fotos with pictures of 'real' NXT users/investors.
I hope we can find some good-looking ones......
Lastly: NXT is open source. Has been for a very long time, since February/March as I remember. Where do you think all the NXT clones are getting the code from?
Here, probably:
https://bitbucket.org/JeanLucPicard/nxt/srcAnd just by way of a comparison: NXT was initially financed with 21 BTC, and has bootstrapped itself with internal financing (no outside investment) to where it is today. Now look at the insane amounts of BTC that certain IPO's are attracting......
