Some of you might have noticed, but the "theft-account" from yesterday did a transaction - an interesting transaction, because the receiver is the account which generated the genesis block. Can anyone say something about this?


He just secured that wallet by buying an alias. that is the transaction to genisis

No, he didn't buy any aliases. Just sent one coin to genesis. But yeah, most likey to secure the account. Which means he's not going to send coins to other accounts anytime soon.

Never heared about it. In which fact do you "secure" your wallet by sending 1 NXT to the genesis account (or each other account)?

Can we at least wait until we have a completed White Paper and Open Source Client.  I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here!  I would like to have a nice brief article explaining Nxt, Features, POS, and then at the bottom, a download link for one of the Open Source Clients.  You can't throw arbitrary marketing ideas around and expect funding, be more specific.  We need to wait until we have a one click client, or we will lose people forever.

All happening in next week or two. Marketing takes time. Plan, preparing it, releasing it. 2 weeks is not very long time

China will be the first one of the biggest Nxt market with the more exchange platforms adding Nxt I am contacting recently.

I am not sure if I should post to both of our threads (this + marketing), but what the hell, new list of conferences:

Conferences: Miami (January 25), London (21 January), Berlin (February 12/13), Texas (March 6), Amsterdam (March, May), New York (April 7/8), Canada (April 11/13), Washington (June 20/22), Hong Kong (June 24/25), Melbourne (July 10/11), London (September 10), Las Vegas (October 6/7)

Mysterious.....

Anyhow, on to me:

I've had the 5.7 client up and running solidly on both my VPS and one home PC for the last 74 hours. No down time. Couple of incorrect block generation events that both nodes recovered from.
Jean-Luc....I could kiss u. Good work.

Now I have to upgrade to 5.9, any feedback/tips/whatever?

Last point:

There is a plan afoot to send some Nxt'ers to one of the upcoming Bitcoin conferences in Amsterdam:

https://nextcoin.org/index.php/topic,2277.0.html

to do lots of general NXT promotion.
Any help/feedabck/offers of funding gratefully recieved.
AND: if we do go to one or both of the conferences, there is a definite need for a seriously technical dude to help with presentations or Q&A sessions.    Volunteers....?

... moreover it will scale later to any size we need and trusted
servers
will complete the decentralized infrastructure to keep clients lean, fast and very lightweighted,
this is the way to go. the core has to be the ultimative working horse, the client is using it's first class
api.

So we will have decentralized infrastructure built on top of the set of the servers? So each time when you do login to your lightweight client you do depend on the trusted servers and their api.
Doesn't it look like the structure centralized around the trusted servers?

no, because they are optional but available on demand. separating the client from server makes a lot of sense
for the expected growth and the expected features. with a lean client version i can decide to connect to my local
node, my public or private 24h vps node (if exists) any unsecured open node if i don't need a transfer but just a
quick account balance or even to fully trustet nodes in case a transfer is needed.  and if you think further to some
special nodes, offering services by a custom built api. moreover there is no need to keep the client in sync with the
core source which improves security, the most important mantry shortly (hear me now and believe me later) and
important too, i can reduce or better cut dependencies completely, gaining better cross-os properties.

at least i like to mention that i am lighhtyears away from seeing you or any other dev as an competition, i can ensure
you i would be *very* happy if a open source client would appear in this second. this way i could concentrate on the
project i am really after, the hive. while the explorer and the client is a service to the community the hive is a personal
and commercial poject, which could lift nxt to the global finance level and into another league. this project would be
also listed on asset exchange if done and i would be glad if i could start this tomorrow.

Hey nexern are you doing this all by yourself? Or do you have a team?
I may be able to help you with my friends that I already pay them to help Jean-Luc.
So you will be more easily concentrated on Hive!

Nothing interesting. He sent one coin to genesis for good luck. I did it too.

Why?  He's not been very helpful at all.

He did an awesome promotion of Nxt.

+1

...catching up slowly....

Got a link to this promotion?  All I've ever see him to is attack NXT.

Basically this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=422052.500

It provided much exposure for NXT (and NEM, NOX, NEXX, ME.TOO and FRX) Wink

And you forgot NEXXX for some reason.

I wanted to keep it for myself

Yeah, thats what he does best. But his semi-obsessive negativity/hate hard-on about NXT has the paradoxical result of bringing NXT to even more peoples attention....just look at the nex launch thread, the content is massively about NXT.

The only bad publicity is no publicity.

Either open the source completely and assist with genesis block creation, or don't open the source completely and don't assist with genesis block creation. Doing one and not the other is simply mean.

This seems an unnecessarily hard distinction to me.
If he asks, that is a different story, of course.

But if he gets all the tools, that's great, too, isn't it?
If I give someone a saw, hammer and nails, it isn't mean if I don't help to create a wardrobe.

Ah, perhaps I should rephrase. I certainly don't think CFB should feel obligated to work for free on creating a genesis block for NEX!

But if genesis block creation needs some secret sauce that isn't clear to a competent individual with access to the full Java source code, then that's a form of concealment that doesn't agree fully with the open source movement. We're either open, or we're not open. In April when the full source is released, it should include whatever information is required to allow someone to replicate the coin, including genesis block creation (but not necessarily hand holding).

The market will then decide whether Frictionless's 'fair' distribution makes it a more valuable coin.


Anyway, this is all academic, I already know the exact date that the NEX genesis block will come into existence.

Release the code, yes, actively help FC, no.

What about other copycats?

Haven't read the next 4 pages yet, so I could be completely out of date here:

I have no problem with someone taking the NXT source code and building something useful on top of it/modifying it/memeing it/whatever.

I do have a big problem with someone who is prepared to blatantly copy an entire project, stealing the entire thing and changing only one letter in the name, in order to satisfy a personal vendetta.

If u ( beloved C-f-B) do get involved with nex in any way, u could find yourself in a lose/lose situation:

nex succeeds: FC takes all the credit and the cash, the potential crypto-freak market for NXT is reduced, slowing growth and diluting NXT's market share.

or

nex fails: u get the blame because of your evil sabotage of FCs project.

U gotta make yr own decisions, but I wouldn't touch this with a very long stick.....

I think it's pretty fickle of CfB to get involved with NEX.  Strange actually.  Is NXT not the winner here?  Or, is there something behind NEX we don't know about?

To be precise, CfB says he will support a good crypto. He did not specifically say that crypto would be NEX, just that he felt he needed to be fair.

Let's not make it bigger than it is.

Well, then that's fair enough.  Of course, CfB should be free to support good cc.

A very kind donator neer.g deposited 250k to the NxtMarketing account and joined Come-from-Beyond's 250.000 donated for NxtMarketing:

2037401990853753795

Big cudos to neer.g. It is the guy ho often anonymously awards people who "work" for the Nxt.

Friends, this is Nxt. Here, you don't have any boss, no government, here you are being paid by others, if they are satistied with your work or just want to support your efforts. Anyone can come here and chat, ask for help, but also do something, contribute, help others.

PS: he used me also as an "escrow", 10k will be sent directly to uniqueorn and 5k to me and pinarello, that's why he sent 270.000.

Also I thank to Come-from-Beyond!

Sweet, I love NXT sometimes....
