I can draw some pictures for NXT.
the picture is 1 month old and you posted the exact post multiple times. just don't.
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.
I'd be willing to do this. How is the price set? my main concern is that i don't want to be stuck selling at a lower price than the market rate if the price shoots up. if there's a way around this then i'd be more than happy to contribute.
You should expect getting much higher rates when dealing directly with Fiat!
agreed, but similar rates when buying back in arn't easy, unless anyone knows of a better service in the UK than localbitcoins.com?

I detected networking issues in Bitcoin and Nxt. Both the networks r fragmented more than usualy. Does anyone know anything about this?
There has definitely been issues of some sort. Up until one hour ago, I saw a lot of rescanning and orphans.
Anyone got an idea what this might have been?
Maybe BGP routers or DNS's going crazy, like once in several years.
nobody will take the time to copy your NXT address from hand, so if you want donations, just post the address below
hey NXT'ers - I have quite a nice and powerful API implementation read now. uses python3 and PyQt4 (completely open source!), and the api calls are bounced around as pyqt signals and slots.
This means especially that I can adapt my widgets extremely quickly and flexibly, and also open use as many windows as I like.
So hooking up the widgets to the signals will not take too long time from now on- that will be the easy part!
Can anyone maybe give me a hint about the status of LINUX clients, and are there still any bounties outstanding?
i am planning to implement an Asset Exchange Access - that is my main focus. But what are the expectations out there in respect to linux clients?
(btw, might be portable to windows easily)

Should we be worried?

I was hoping somebody else would step up to the plate on this one, but since they haven't. here's my two cents, er, shillings worth. I have a UK Barclays bank account I use to fund my online poker adventures. It's a totally legal one in my own name, no funny business; I've filed the correct paperwork on it with the IRS and Department of the Treasury here in the US and even voluntarily gave up the number for it during my last security clearance interview. I go thru a proxy and look like I'm in London since the online poker sites block me otherwise coming from an American IP address block. All of these gyrations are due to the 2006 UIEGA anti-online-poker act that was passed here in America, land of the free; but I digress...
Bottom line, I've got the UK bank account but I have no desire to sell any of the NXT I've accumulated. However, I understand the importance of getting NXT hooked up to Bittylicious so I'm willing to try and help. If I've got enough public trust built up here, maybe people could dump NXT they wanted to sell into one of my toy NXT accounts, Bittilocious could take it out of that account to give to a buyer, send GBP to my Barclays account, and I could send that back to the original NXT holders via Moneybookers/Skrill (I've also got accounts there, too.)
This would require me to be a trusted middleman, which I'm OK with if you are.
If we really want to pursue this, let me know, I'll do my part to get NXT rolling in the UK.
I'm also UK based and could help with getting on Bittilocious. The only issue my NXT account was hacked last Friday due to my password not being long enough. I had just over 44k as I mentioned previously in this forum.
I have since bought some more NXT (less than 10k) but let me know How I can help and I will.
I do also have work colleagues and friends that invested in NXT, when I told them back in December, so I could get them involved as well.
Can someone answer me this:
If i forge a block, can someone else see my IP then?
Or lets phrase it diffrently. I need to run a node to forge, is my account number connected to the forging IP?

Could someone please answer this?
I was discussing this with a friend and we came to the conclusion that this would be a huge security concern if it is indeed so.
However, an adversary who monitors all your internet traffic (your ISP) could possible deduce that it was your node that generated a block based on traffic analysis. It is possible to run Nxt over tor if you want to completely avoid that risk. To do so, assuming you have tor running on localhost at port 9050, add the following system properties to your start.d/nxt.ini file:
-DsocksProxyHost=localhost
-DsocksProxyPort=9050
This will force outgoing traffic to use tor as a socks proxy, but jetty will still listen on all interfaces and accept connections that didn't come over tor. If you are behind a router or firewall, this is not an issue, if not, edit the jetty configuration files (start.ini) to limit jetty.host to localhost. Also, if you are using tor, you cannot share your address with other peers that want to connect to you (because what they see is the tor exit node IP), so you should disable shareMyAddress in web.xml and not set myAddress there. It is like being behind a router without being able to set up port forwarding.
Thank you for answering Jean-Luc!

Secrets consists of 64 characters from the following set of characters: ['a'..'z','A'..'Z','0'..'9',' ','''','!','"','#','$','%','&','(',')','*','+',',','-','.','/',':',';','<','=','>','?','@','[','\',']','^','_','`','{','|','}','~']. 97 different characters.
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
Maybe remove space? And maybe colon, in case you want to do the same thing with prefix and simple user password and use it as a separator.
A part of me does wonder though whether integrating this in is good for Nextcoin.. seems to me like a lot of people may wonder why you are being shady about it and trying to obscure the transactions. Just Bitcoin mixers always strike me as the shady side of Bitcoin, that part that allows easy money laundering. I mean why else would you use one? The one part of crypto's I could see being made illegal.
Because it protects people from corruption and tyranny..
If everybody who uses cash is a criminal, then we all are
We are talking about having money that can be used like cash
Being able to spend money without EVERYBODY knowing exactly how you spend all your money.
There is nothing wrong with this.
http://www.nxt-e.com, a new trading platform on NXT, safe, convenient, simple and more suitable for everyone transaction, we hope that a positive test, there are many tips that will surpass God as my witness BTER. Please we like to believe NXT as we believe, equally worthy of your trust that we will be together for the NXT ecological sacrificed their part!
Welcome everyone to share!
We have been working hard!

sry - can't get in. platform knows my email and I can get password requests to my email, but I can't get in. If I am not totally screwing it up, you'll need to correct the 'reset passord' function!
I would like to get some feedback about the password generator that I just implemented in NXT Solaris.

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.

I detected networking issues in Bitcoin and Nxt. Both the networks r fragmented more than usualy. Does anyone know anything about this?
I don't know what does it mean, so I'll probably sound stupid but I noticed that my transaction was acting a bit different than usual. About an hour ago. There were only 30 transactions in a queue instead of hundrends and thousands and it showed 4 minutes estimated time for all 20 minutes while I was waiting for a confirmation. Usually it looks different. Much higher numbers that are changing all the time until I get the first confirmation.
Done two BTC transactions this morning, first has confirmed within 20mins, the other is going a bit slower but its a mining pool transfer and that normally takes a while to get picked up so not noticed any difference.
