It's always a good time to buy Nxt. It's only going up from here.
Any UK Nxt holders? We need to position ourselves to get on Bittylicious to increase liquidity. The ability to purchase Nxt without Bitcoin is a big deal and one we should put some energy towards.
My KYC/registration with Bittylicious is pretty much complete, I can see they have about 4 Alt's on there already.
I don't know if anyone else has contacted them - I've emailed them to see if they will let me sell NXT.
Thank you for doing this. The more I've thought about doing this from the US with my UK Barclays acocount, the more uncomfortable I feel about it. If I processed more than $10,000 at once, I would have to refile my Foreign Bank Account Report (FBAR, Form TD F 90-22.1). I had to file it once because I had to have more than $10K to open the Barclays account, and pulled most of that back once it was opened so I wouldn't have to file it annually.
I just want to play poker for small stakes and be left alone, not juggle stuff all year to keep from being suspected of being a money launderer.
My 0.5.10 stuck on 53999 block. Upgraded to 0.5.11. Seems like new version works better.
Doge is where old GPUs go to die when they are no longer profitable for mining Bitcoin.
Or when they are not rendering video games
DOGE may not be valued at much more than the electricity needed to solve for them, and the dogechain is very overweight. But it's still a great educational tool and brings people together.

Oh boy... I hope you guys don't sort by Volume... No Sweat here!
Doge is where old GPUs go to die when they are no longer profitable for mining Bitcoin. Really, Doge is totally unsustainable, it is an attempt to reset the clock to a more profitable period on the Bitcoin growth curve, plus some smart advertising.
Here's a great post from gutshot5820 in the Ehereum thread
If Ethereum fail, the dev will still sit on thousands of BTC. It doesn't feel quite right to me.
On the other hand, if NXT failed, BCnext would have got 21 btc, not even enough to pay for his dev time.
The risk/reward was and is a lot more fair in NXT than in any other project like Ethereum or Emunie.
Lets put the fundraiser in simple terms that everyone can understand. Everyone should agree agree that all investments should have a proper risk/reward ratio. This project itself has a lot of risk and potentially a lot of reward, so neither can outweigh the other. Now lets look at this objectively from that perspective.
Ethereum project;
Risk = Very High
Reward = Very High
Founders;
Risk = 0%
Reward=100%
Early adopters;
Risk = 100%
Reward = ?
Put that on a graph. Does that seem like a fair transaction to you?

On top of that, Nxt's development is much transparent. You can ask any tough questions on this tread and several other threads regarding the technical issues and doubts and you get answers. I have not seen other projects with this kind openness and confidence yet.
Could someone teach me how to check signature/hash. Someone said a couple of days ago that he can't confirm hash with 0.5.10 so I though it's better to learn before the next update.
I guess you are on windows?
you can use hashtab, which get's integrated in your fileexplorer.
easy and handy.
Hashtab is indeed an easy downloadable solution but not all that obvious how to use it once you've got it.
I recommend checking SHA-256 of a file you've downloaded by uploading back online here:
http://hash.online-convert.com/sha256-generator
This is a REALLY GOOD original original post "(teach me") and we should consolidate and repeat these answers over and over and over at every client download site for every new NXT user.
People do not realize how desperate the world financial situation is. Where do you think A TRILLION DOLLARS comes from EVERY YEAR NOW to finance the American government annual deficit? It used to come from China. No more, they're out of cash. Since 2009, if came from the Fed. No more, they're out of cash. Um, NOW WHAT?

Finance articles usually go over my head. But yeah, the status quo isn't sustainable, and things are going to fall apart very soon. Folks need to know.
I found this series of videos helpful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYkl3XlEneA&feature=c4-overview-vl&list=PLMNj_r5bccUzol670CnRnAp-a6rpd3Dym (Check out the links on the right of the video for the rest of the series.) The narrator speaks very clearly and to the point, and he's done a *lot* of research and his claims are backed up by references.

Database? What is that dabase going to be used for?
I am a bit confused, is it not all in the blockchain?

3.) Create new GUIs for Windows and OS X using the same business logic, but based on the cross-platform Firemonkey libraries.
4.) Release Windows version (32 and 64 bit) based on FireMonkey.
5.) Release source-code for FireMonkey Windows version.
7.) Release OSX version based on FireMonkey.
8.) Release source code for FireMonkey OSX version.
Changes for v1.5
-Fixed stack overflow bug when switching to another currency in personal account management
-Added password generator for adding new accounts in personal account manangement
Changes for v1.4
-Added market charts (DGEX, Bter, NxtChg, Vircurex) and exchange rates (from cyptocoincharts.info)
-Added feature to show NXT assets in other currencies in the personal account management
-You can now synchronize your address book after a NXT Solaris update with default address book that I ship that holds account numbers of exchnages, faucets and such
-Implemented orphan block cleanup
-Moved to Delphi XE5 in preparation for multiplatform support and open-source FireMonkey GUIs
-Windows 32-bit and 64-bit versions are now available
Thanks to NxtChg.com for doing the small animation in the status bar!

What's even scarier is there is increasing talk by the IMF and national central banks of a one-time 25% wealth tax to try and rebalance the currently desperate debt ratios faced by banks:
Good fucking grief. *facepalm*
EDIT: How the fuck did our world get to this point where screwing up gets you more and lets you keep screwing up?

I detected networking issues in Bitcoin and Nxt. Both the networks r fragmented more than usualy. Does anyone know anything about this?
maybe someone or something higher up that doesnt want cryptocurrency to succeed found a way to surpressing it from networking layer. i'm wondering if this even possible...
I would like to get some feedback about the password generator that I just implemented in NXT Solaris.
Secrets consists of 64 characters from the following set of characters: ['a'..'z','A'..'Z','0'..'9',' ','''','!','"','#','$','%','&','(',')','*','+',',','-','.','/',':',';','<','=','>','?','@','[','\',']','^','_','`','{','|','}','~']. 97 different characters.
Entropy should be: 97^64 = 1,423609878848517298732088475247e+127 => 422 bit (Is this calculation correct?)
To create the secret, I use the RAND_bytes function from openSSL. The seeding is done automatically in the openSSL library through OS-based seed initialization.
I was thinking about doing the seeding myself by asking the user to move the cursor or hit on the keyboard, but from what I read about the openSSl implementation, I fear that I might get worse results than with letting openSSL do the seeding.

Since the entropy is enough, i think you can choose to not use some character that are too similar, like O and 0.
EDit : Nevermind, because the letter/number are the least of a problem when you see the special character. It will be very hard to manually enter those password
Per the Truecrypt implementation, I would use human input + a rolling initial value for seeding. In other words, let two values do the seeding. The first is human input from the mouse, the second is the Rand_bytes function, called every few seconds.

Team,
It's time to let the exchanges know it's time to add Nxt. Please do the following:
1. Visit the Google Doc for a list of exchanges and their respective email addresses
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AuputZyRQ5-5dFY4RlBTdFJWWnhTRUp3SWdiMlBpb3c&usp=sharing#gid=0
2. Email each exchange
- Let them know why you think they should add Nxt (marketcap, features, community etc..)
- You could easily use the same email for each exchange
3. Record your results here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AuputZyRQ5-5dFY4RlBTdFJWWnhTRUp3SWdiMlBpb3c&usp=sharing#gid=0
Don't wait for someone else to do the work, let's show the exchanges we're serious about Nxt! - Nikel"

I'm trying hard, but I don't really understand how the initial distribution of NXT works.
A number of accounts get the bulk of NXT and it's up to them to distribute it? What's their incentive other than building the number of people involved to increase the demand? If they build the demand, the price goes up so it's better to hold their balance as much as possible...
Where am I going wrong here?

Where am I going wrong here?
You've got nothing wrong. That is all the incentive they need. Anytime money is created, the people that have it at its creation face a challenge to get it into the hands of many people and convert it from "money" into "an economy". They do it right, their remaining retained holdings rise in value. There is no perfect way to do this. NXT is just one of many, many attempts to gt it right, and is doing distributions at exchanges and with bounties. Every cryptocoin and every national fiat currency faces this challenge. Central banks do it with fractional reserve banking (and the current debt levels means they are not doing it well). NXT did it with a six-week open enrollment period where anybody could kick in up to 1 BTC to obtain a proportional share of the one-time NXT created. PoW coins do it with "mining".
Interesting experiments to watch, eh?
