Yes, but this would be the totally wrong message - sort of medieval: Trying to give the big fish an extra sweet deal to pretty please condescend to utter the name ..

That is wrong strategy.

This kind of subservient pleading displays a severe lack of self confidence!!!!!

That is putting nxt into the position of a pathetic little petitioner.

NXT does not need this. Mark Cuban does not need this. Give him an account with 500 Nxt for a test drive, just like anybody else.

NXT can convince by its technical superiority, we don't need to beg and whimper for attention, we have to make nxt known with self confidence!!!

Here's a draft of our letter to Mark.

Mark,

We saw your tweet that you're interested in the NXT generation of cryptocurrencies.  We are the users and developers of a brand new cryptocurrency called "NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin".  NXT uses brand new software.  It’s not a fork of Bitcoin's source code.  NXT is the first 100% Proof-of-Stake (PoS) currency.  Unlike other currencies with PoS mining, NXT's PoS mining does not cause monetary inflation.  Coins are earned solely by charging transaction fees.  The total amount of NXT in circulation is 1 billion.  NXT improves different features of Bitcoin, removes some disadvantages and resolves the environmental issue of wasting electricity to secure the network.

We would like to give you (some) NXT so you can participate in the NXT big thing in cryptocurrency.  It's our hope in by giving you these NXT that you help us spread the word about NXT so others can also participate in this revolution.

You can read more about NXT at NxtCrypto.org, wiki.NxtCrypto.org and forums.NxtCrypto.org.

You can download NXT's software here (Link to NRS).

If you have questions please contact us at (contact).

Thank you,

The users and developers of the NXT generation of cryptocurrency

Why don't we use the 10M fund to send him 100k NXT? This is marketing and promotion.
What would be the best info to send along with the 100k?

because that should be used for development

Is that what was decided?

just my opinion

also not just development, we need a code audit and a whitepaper

Honestly - Mark Cuban is Billionaire! Good for him - but trying to bribe him with 100k Nxt from the dev account is so wrong in so many ways. DON'T DO THAT!

That was my misunderstanding. I was under the impression that the 10M were to be used also for marketing and promotion.

I found Mark Cuban's email for one of his companies AXStv.

[email protected]

I'm sure he doesn't directly receive any of the emails, so we need to ask his executive assistant to forward the letter to Mark because we'd like to give him "the NXT best thing in cryptocurrency".
.

We may be a bit early for him to be entirely impressed with NXT but we cannot let this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity go by without making sure he knows his nxt = NXT

on a side note, Wall street tumbled at close today, and argentinian peso dropped through the floor.  South America unease could spread pretty quickly.

Time for a fair and decentralized currency that isnt controlled by the banks and Govts. Anyone know one?

OOOHHH right.. guess who's nxt  Cool

I'm not so sure giving him Nxt would be a good idea. Bill Still took a lot of heat for possibly receiving donations before he promoted Quark. I'd rather not risk the accusation of the Nxt community "bribing" him to promote Nxt. Just give him good information with no strings attached, and he'll appreciate the gesture.

Cuban, a billionaire, won't get any heat for accepting a $10,000 commission after inadvertently having promoted our brand. But the fact that our brand makes itself known to him and is able to throw $10,000 his way just for saying our name, even though it was a coincidence, will definitely get his attention.

Yeah that's probably the best way. Let the guy decide if he likes it or not. Good information would likely be best.

We want to give him something to entice him to use Nxt.  I give Nxt to a lot of people.  Is that a bribe?  No.  It's just a friendly gesture.  "Hey.  I think you might like this.  Try it out!"

perhaps this is wise

But then again, we want to make it easy for him to get Nxt. If he isn't already in bitcoin it could be difficult.

the guy probably could buy up most of NXT easily if he wanted to...haha  Grin
