It's ok. Doges run fast but tire quickly Grin

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 have a UK account but wouldn't use it. .. Mine was blocked just because I went on a online shopping spree. Had a phone call claiming to be the fraud team ...

That happened to me too, yesterday actually  Undecided.

The banks in both the UK and the US are implementing creeping de-facto currency controls, they are in big trouble with liquidity now that the Fed is tapering off QE.

This is I think the real reason cryptocurrencies like NXT will take off in the next 24 months.

Here's a great post from gutshot5820 in the Ehereum thread


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?  

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.

You just need to have a stern word with your bank manager Smiley
I don't get those problems anymore..
Having more than one account for different purposes is also useful....
People forget the same bank will let you have multiple current accounts if you ask nicely.
and you do a lot of business with them..

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?

Installation
Simply unzip the archive and run the NXTSolaris.exe file.

The current version 1.5 and previous version 1.4 is not compatible with version 1.3 and before, so please delete any existing NXT Solaris files before updating to 1.5.

Roadmap
1.) Move current version of my code to XE5 and release closed source 32-bit and 64-bit versions for Windows. [DONE]
2.) Refactor code to a MVC architecture, so that I can create separate GUIs while using the same version of the business logic code. [90% DONE - Remaining necessary work will show up while doing 3.) ]
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!

Donations
I hope you like my client and I’d be extremely happy to see some donations for the future of this project!

Regarding Mixing Service. Do we need such on-chain service that mixes coins with anonymity-reliability trade-off? 30% anonymity means 70% reliability to get all the coins back. Yes, it means that with 100% anonymity u could get 0% - 200% coins back.

Has the trade of of a mixing service for mainstream adoption with respect to compliance been discussed? See this http://www.totalwebcasting.com/view/?id=nysdfs very interesting hearing. Go to Panel 3 Day 2 - The Academic View on Virtual Currencies  Minute: 51:30

I would be willing to do it for significantly cheaper and you don't have to pay me until you see the final product, as long as I have CfB's promise that I would get paid for it.

We need a trustless solution.

You cut off the part where I mentioned maybe escrow would be better if you are pointing out that I am trusting you Smiley

Or are you saying my solution isn't trustless?  I'm talking about the actual algorithm I put together.  The only trust involved in my algorithm is that someone will come along next who also wants to use the mixer, and I could save up some money via fees, to pay for those situations myself when getting this thing started. If that's too much trust though, so be it, I've got other ideas for ways I can help Nxt get ahead Smiley

Anyway if you guys haven't seen it yet and are interested, here's the zerocoin whitepaper:
http://spar.isi.jhu.edu/~mgreen/ZerocoinOakland.pdf

I'd be fine hiring the Zerocoin or Anoncoin guy(s) to do it for us.

And I guess I'm just saying that mixing is seen as being politically charged and potential way to launder money.. whether justified or not.

the faucet never works, either it's "invalid request" or "Node is offline, no requests can be made at this time. Please try again later."

Hi, "node is offline" should be fixed now that I switched over to NRS 0.5.11 - 0.5.10 was the cause of this.

Regarding invalid request, this usually means you are using some sort of throw-away email account. It's also possible that you are in a database of spammers as I use stopforumspam.com API to detect spam bots. Let me know if it still happens.
