it's absolutely great to see how your guys keep pushing.
I'm rather new in coins world (used to mine some feathercoins last november),
then I saw nxt and was just thrilled. I'm an artist (sculptures, art animation, theatre....)
and don't understand how all the technical stuff works, but I see how you
all coming up with great ideas all the time. Just want to thank you and keep on.

Hello fellow artist.

Nice to see someone else who is maybe not up to par with all the technical stuff (although if you keep reading you can catch up with the general concepts quite fast!) but sees that the strength of the community is as important as the infrastructure itself!

I agree. Nxt is a unique example of collaboration hundreds of people all over the world. I spoke with a friend a couple of days ago and I said: "We've got 10M unclaimed coins for development and marketing". He asked: "We? Are you a part of Nxt?". He was amazed that every important decision is discussed and made by community memebrs.

BC.NXT just send me a PM.

"Here's a fun game for the community. If you can go 20 pages without discussing VS I will reveal the first character of the password to the genesis block"

Challenge, guys.

Last post about voting I found is that. It was page 1179.
Now we are on 1254.

BCNext, your move.

LoL, just curious what sort of fun can we have with genesis account after we get the whole password? Grin

So, voting.

- The only thing we can reliably use is the total amount of money, but that is bad, because for some decisions this will be very undemocratic.
- We can't apply any "compressor" function to the wealth, because people will split into multiple accounts.
- We can't vote by accounts because they are cheap to create.
- We can't use PoW or Turing tests, because it's impractical and stupid (solving 30 captchas?). Can also be circumvented by paying cheap labor to do it.
- We can't use passport chips with challenge, because they are too rare.
- Maybe we could use what Bitcoin is trying to do with passports and zero-knowledge proof, but probably not until they actually implemented it.
- We can't use iris scans, because of privacy concerns and practical difficulties.

Come on, brilliant minds in here, think! What can we do?

I live in Austin. I can provide transportation

I'm not a native speaker, so I don't feel I'm able to represent Nxt, but I can help. Meet in airport, drive to conference etc.

Thanks for the offer. I'll rent a car with my airline miles accumulated from previous biz travels and get a cheap hotel, but I would love to have dinner with you if that works out. I'll be in touch.

Alright then. Vodka and bliny on me )

Years ago I was on a team to launch a space experiment to the Russian Space Station Mir and during my stay in Star City near Moscow I learned to love bliny. I also learned to fear vodka.

My favorite sipping drink Gentleman Jack is only 40 proof - practically lemonade compared to a good Russian vodka!

John Daniels, yes.

I propose to get listed as a speaker. There seems to be a January 31 deadline for this. I would propose to get in the Technical: Development, Implementation and Infrastructure speaker track. For a twenty minute talk, you've got to have laser like focus. My theme would be slide after slide: Bitcoin problem, NXT solution: currency distribution, blockchain bloat, PoW arms race, 51% attack, block confirmation speed (10 min vs 1 minute), transactions per second (1 currently / 7 max for BTC, 10,000 ultimate goal for NXT), etc. etc. etc.
Here's details.
http://texasbitcoinconference.com/images/docs/Speaker%20Letter.pdf

There will be a conference fund.

We will provide graphic elements and maybe a short video. Now buy a ticket and concentrate only on a submission.

Re-posting my Public Service Announcement:

If you are new to Nxt and don't want to read through 1249 pages of posts, come to the wiki:
- Learn about Nxt
- Get started
- get basic questions answered in the FAQ and common problems pages
- Learn how to set up a public node on a VPS
- read up on the Nxt high-level API, which you can use to build apps, games, clients, utilities, and more
- find additional resources for programmers, including suggested methods for handling transactions, a PHP library, and more.
- check out the current draft version of the Nxt whitepaper, which is being built and refined by top community contributors (it's still rough, but there's lots of great content already)

Also remember there are great forums with lots of info and support for beginners. Many of the best Nxt wiki articles are based on information originally contributed here:
- The nxtcrypto.org forum
- The nextcoin.org forum

Wiki contributors pull information from these threads every day to keep the wiki up to date. You can also help contribute, or translate.

This thread is long and daunting for new folks, and most of the conversation here is not helpful for beginners. So don't get frustrated -- come to the places where new folks are welcomed and pampered!

Sound nice. Wiki is a really great place for new nxter with multi-language support.

Hey, guys and gals, I would be interested in representing NXT at the Texas Bitcoin Conference on March 5-6. I am in the American South not very far away (relatively speaking) and just checked, I can get a round trip jet ticket to Austin for under $300 if I book soon. The conference fee is $275 until the end of January, $325 starting in February. If the devs/community could back me for $1000 (currently around 10K NXT), I volunteer to cover this. I will kick in 20% of my annual vacation time from my day job. I am an aerospace engineer in real life, one thing I know how to do is make concise, organized presentations of complex topics...
