Topic: NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information - page 1369. (Read 2761645 times)

If the goal is exposure then by all means, but people talking about sending him 100k+ NXT are being foolish. That's NXT that should be spent on development.

solar might be bit difficult but a preconfigured raspi cubie that would be cool....he just has to plug it in then unlock the account....it should be simple....he is still a very busy person and we don't want to frustrate him.

Or send him preconfigured solar powered cubie
I think he likes gizmos
He is pretty smart technically, as long as he is told we are in beta he will not expect everything to be perfect
He understands tech development
My guess is he thinks mining is a big waste of resources

Send cool solar powered nxt computer. That will have a lot more impacf than nxt acct, of course send him small amount so he doesnt have to buy it on xchg. But he needs to make acct first

Grassroots my ass, Bitcoin is quoted in Forbes and Bloomberg and NXT wants and aspires to be alongside it. How much money have you got in your account, a few million worth or more, grassroots and empowering my ass. You can't be all underground on a forum with a million memembers and an account with a few millions dollars.....stupid.

Our infographics are embarrassingly biased.  I wouldn't trust the credibility or judgement of anyone sending them to me.

Update ClieNXT

version 0.0.2, codename: Phoenix


Redesigned whole GUI, tried to simplify it as best as I could...

I think, we have to consider every human being will use Nxt one day and we need to start implementing reasonable easy and accessible software.
My hope is that very smart people on this forum help each other to build wonderful products...
An interesting article about the topic: http://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-needs-accessible-visually-impaired/
Never done this before in any of my small projects, but I think with help you guys, possible we will implement accessibility in our GUIs

Give Mark a token Nxt account of 500 Nxt so that at least he can start forging and not have to buy from an Exchange....his time is limited..the guy is a billionaire and could cover Nxt whole marketcap if he wanted to.

so give him token wallet with 500 Nxt so that he can at least START FORGING.


EDIT:
prepare a link to NRS client & Solaris client...make an test account holding 500 NXT with a easy passphase you can send to him....let him start playing....make it as easy for him to begin....he doesn't have the time to figure stuff out but let him at least experience NXT.

The goal behind contacting Mark is to inform him about NXT.  Hopefully once he knows about NXT, he will let others know about NXT.  This is no different than me or you telling our friends about NXT.  Mark just has broader exposure.  The goal is to empower individuals.

I give NXT to my friends all the time.  I'd be willing to give Mark some NXT as a friendly gesture.

People here are idiots. Of course its worth sending this guy some NXT with a full description of the project. You only need to send 1000 or less for him to see how it works. That many followers and someone who is reported in financial pages is a damn better seed marketing investment than 99% of the FB crap ideas on here.

Anyway, I have almost no NXT but i'll send 100NXT if that all you need to show him the system just a complimentary amount for him to check the system. Asking him to wade through buying NXT from BTC on some exchange you will proabably already lose him in terms of being a high profile supporter/investor of NXT. People are beyond stingy without any understanding of how the real world works. The guy is actually asking to know about what is being done with NXT, why the hell would you go out of your way to be antisocial. He's just a guy who wants to know about NXT.....

Honestly though a full explanation and include the info graphic someone made here is all you need, I wouldn't give him a crappy client we are using at the moment or he might see it as not user friendly for the masses to invest or promote.

These are good points.  We are a grassroots movement with the aim of empowering people.

vote for comment "You can run NXT on a Cubietruck or Raspberry Pi, keep the network running and mine NXT. It can run on solar power..." pls:

Mark Cuban would not invest in NXT in its current state. I think those funds would be put to better use in development.

Don't offer Mark Cuban free Nxt, but do offer to answer any questions for him and offer technical assistance if he'd like to purchase some.

Also I think these points should be added to the draft (if true):

Yeah, right. Actually there is a true possibility for advertising straight in the heart of crypto maniacs. Paid ads in one (unnammed ) weekly show. We would need 2,5x more NXT (than you were here speaking about) for 3 months for that.

who gives a fuck about Mark Cuban?

For a decentralised currency why spunk in ur pants over some interest from him. If he likes he invests like other people if not see above. jesus.

My sentiment exactly. Idea is great - choosing wrong amount can backfire badly! consider toads like frictionless - we don't want to deliver such creatures any ammo...

The community can come to a consensus on the amount we should give Mark.

Another one of Mark's emails is [email protected].

like the draft.

- Pleas consider my argument about the amount and the strategic aspect. Doens't look good if nxt distractors and enemies can point to 'oh LOOK, they gave the big guy 100k, so they have to bribe him .. not so sure about how good their thing is , or WHAT??'

The draft looks okay - but I would not be giving him more than a "token" amount of Nxt (say 1K at the most).

The guy is rich so if he has any real interest he would simply buy on an exchange and then promote it to easily double his money so a token amount should suffice.

Don't be so "desperate" to "look desperate" guys.

It's not a "bribe".  It's advertising.  We're trying to spread the word about NXT, so people can be empowered.
