Hi All!

It was suggest that I post over here. I'm in the process of collecting donations/bounties to continue building out a 100+ public nodes in 10 different geographic locations. I've currently received donations for 50 nodes and have deployed 20 in 2 data centers. The other 30 just came in today so I'm deploying and coding as fast as the holiday will allow!

Current status:

- 10 nodes in Atlanta deployed
- 10 nodes in Northern Virgina deployed
- 10 nodes in Dallas in progress
- 10 nodes in Chicago queued
- 10 nodes in non-US location TBD queued

I'm deploying new nodes as I receive donations in chunks 3000 nxt. 3000 nxt covers 1 node for 3 months.

All donations will be held in the nxtbase account until the end of March. At the end of March, I'll reimburse myself for all fees occured. What this means, is that ratio of deployed nodes to donations is completely transparent. For example, if my account has 30K nxt, there will be 20 public nodes (10 for donation and 10 donated by me). So my work can be audited by the community. It could be at any given time a node or two is bust, but in general the running public nodes should equal balance/3000 + 10.

So if you would like to support the cause, please donate or pay a bounty to 11243542237777034551. PM if you want to be recognized for your donations!

Thanks for your support!

Nice work.

In the interest of diversification, I have also deployed a node in Ireland, and will deploy one additional node for every 3000 NXT I receive at the address 9060914620736248721

Thanks!

Hey guys,

Is there any bounty for a german translation of parts of the wiki/whitepaper/webpages?

Let me know,
TwinWinNerD

And likewise for Brazilian Portuguese.

Awesome, now we need only Korean and Indian people, if I count most important languages Smiley

Welcome to the https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgAGADgnQcrtdHRrV3V3Z1lzOXVEMWtqdElUaEtqV1E#gid=1 - the page will be revised soon.

Cool.

So it seems I need to contact "Joefox587" to get permission to translate the wiki (http://nxtcrypto.wikia.com/wiki/Nxt_Wiki). Do you know how to contact him so I can start the work?

Thank you all  Wink

As I informed Byt, right now I am finishing a brand new video with much more decent graphics in cooperation with Ola who provides a professional voice over. Also we've got a new member of the video group - very experienced video explainer maker, so it seems like we will have more non-amateurish looking videos before the launch Smiley

I think it won't be a big problem to find another "rich" resources. If we cooperate a little, we can create a good material and spread Nxt worldwide.

In Peercoin volunteers group there are about 5 people working on 1 video (+ idea brainstorming of all community).

Merry Christmas
Yes there are some other works in progress as I received pms but there was a pressure to assign and release the bounty prizes, to avoid despair, so I found Christmas a cheering coincidence for doing that!
It is possible to push the progress forward and achieve the targets step by step like what we have done in this thread and in the big promotion based giveaway, if other holders and active members step forward and help things out. Of course they do not have to send donations to my pool. They can make one for themselves and start defining projects and bounty prizes, or simply donating to good contributions case by case. Having a pool and a defined project list makes the process more constructive and target-based, also time sensitive.
I wish I could award to all the posted (or sent to me by pm) contributions, but my time is busy and my Nxt source is very limited. As a result I plan to lock my Nxt threads at the 3rd of January 2014. I hope the other members continue the way to Nxt great success!

PS: may I ask you lyynx, to upload your video to dropbox and post the link. I want to put it in the OP. The same request to all the awarded submissions (articles and the compilation in the pdf format please).

Announcement


In the Nxteam googledoc there are 2 sheets about donation:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgAGADgnQcrtdHRrV3V3Z1lzOXVEMWtqdElUaEtqV1E#gid=2

"I want to donate"
- Donators can write there if they want to rent someone, create something, support any kind of help. - It also doesn't have to be specific wish.

Then:
"I want a donation"
- this is little experimental, but if someone thinks he is very special and looking for his donator, this is a place for him.

(I am updating those sheets because all these information are spread everywhere in the forums..)

Other helpers now have special sheets and there might be some more organized and paid jobs...

Now not only original stakeholders, but also Alias owners really need Nxt to success Smiley

Here is the final result and paying assignment for our bounties:

lyynx: man you've done it finally, the type of video I've desired. This probably would be the first Nxt official video!
You get 400K for your video, please provide your account id. Smiley

salsacz: you've wrote a good article covering most of the stuff accurately in a minimalist fashion. But it needs editing by a native speaker (please don't be offended by having me mentioning this).
Also your video v.2 was a good one, very close to my standards, other video about mining was nice too. But unfortunately we have limited sources and by paying the main part of the video bounty to lyynx, I can only provide you 100K for your videos, and also 30K for the article+ 20K for helping me organizing this thread, for the total 150K. Please provide your account id. Smiley


JohnnyBTCSeed: as I promised before, I pay you 50K for your awesome compilation. Please provide your account id.  Smiley

wesleyh: as I promised, you also get 100K for your nice Nxt Mac app. Please provide your account id. Smiley

Anon136: I read it, excellent! You should promise us to write a separate paper about it and referring to Nxt algo in part and putting a copy in arxiv.org for the technical audience to see as well!
I wished I could give you more, but alas my source is limited. I can give you 200K. Please provide your id. Smiley

PS: others videos, articles and translations that I omitted above can post the link to their effort attached with their Nxt id. in the big giveaway thread. I ll send another 100K for klee to continue the giveaway and in particular send you some coins over that thread!

Merry Christmas!

It is with great pleasure that I, Sheeba - from www.webcanvas.in, a professional wed and graphics design platform; would like to introduce ourselves to you. We have been catering to hundreds of clients globally and continue to serve premium quality designs for every requirement.

Lately, we have begun accepting crypto currencies starting from Bitcoin and we have numerous clients who have opted to use it as a choice of payment, motivating us to consider adding more of such potential currencies. We have been constantly looking at adding a new crypto coin as payment option, which was what brought NXT coin to our attention.

We believe it would definitely be profitable for us to get in early in accepting NXT coin as a payment option for our business.

As an early adoption of a new crypto currency, we are offering a 10% discount for all orders placed using the NXT coin.

We would further increase the discount rates as the popularity of NXT increases over time.

We would be truly glad if you guys would add our company www.webcanvas.in in your NXT coin bounty list as the first online based company accepting NXT as a payment option.

This would really motivate us in accepting a new crypto currency for our business and will also give more exposure to this crypto within the designing industry.

Thank you for your attention and we wish the NXT coin a great success.

Seasons Greetings from WebCanvas.

PS: on the matter of dgex, as I mentioned some days before, I agree that dgex is far from the level of being the primary exchange for Nxt and apparently we will need a fix soon.
Not that far, give or take a week.

It is much different already than it was a week ago, we would appreciate an opinion what other factors other than the website design are crucial to your evaluation of "a fix"?

BTW https://dgex.com works now fine.
I already mentioned those factors in another post at the page 7 of this same bounty thread:
Quote
Also about dgex, it is far from the level of being the main Nxt exchange atm, because of the lack of payment automation and also because the withdrawal 0.9% fee discourages high volume traders and in general working with a pure PoS currency like Nxt make it possible for the site to reduce fees to close to 0 (maybe some fixed fees for btc cashouts+ some min. Nxt fee to prevent spamming and market manipulation).

All my effort I have put in on NXT is stolen by others, just like optical is telling, who received huge bounty's.

Alright, I'm not sure if this accusation is leveled at me,  but I would like to make a statement just in case. At this point in time, I have received exactly one donation (substantially less than yours, but that's fair since you've done more work so far). Apart from that, the work  I have put in the "Wat is Nxt?" article is entirely my own.

I have now started work on the Dutch wiki and have only been using my own work for that as well. The "Getting Started" page contained a text I think you've translated on the Nextcoin forum, but if you inspect that text you should see I used my own translation for the Wiki as I didn't want to use your text without permission and furthermore couldn't have as the forum was down at the moment I was translating the page. That said you are more than welcome to help translate the Wiki, as it's a huge undertaking for one person and multiple editors results in better quality control.

I harbor no ill will towards you, and I'm not sure this is even directed at me, but I wanted to clarify things publicly as I'm one of the other Dutch translators and stating "people have stolen my work and collected the rewards" could easily lead them to assume I was the one doing said things.

As for some progress on the Dutch wiki. I have so far completed the Home page, the Getting Started page and am almost done with the Myths and Misconceptions page.

http://nxt-nl.wikia.com/wiki/Nxt_NL_Wiki
http://nxt-nl.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ#Mythes_en_misconcepties
http://nxt-nl.wikia.com/wiki/Van_Start_Gaan

Anyone is more than welcome to help. The English pages are currently fully integrated in the page and I'm in the process of translating them and phasing out the English text so the structure remains identical to the English wiki. I still see this as a collaborative effort rather than a competitive one, but wanted to clear things up just in case.
