NXT could use more support at http://bitvestor.info, maybe a thread discussing main features and future potential. At close to 1000 visits a day, it could be good for NXT! Quality content is always more effective!

your forum has 20 members... we have 3 forums including this one, so if we got ddosed in all 3, we can come Cheesy

Do you mean you'd like some people to come over and start some (quality) threads?

@CFB.  I have a question regarding AM.  Can we make messages sent to any particular account public?  I was thinking we could use public messages as a feedback/trust system.  For example, if account "x" was selling something, I could go on blockchain explorer, lookup up that particular account, view public messages sent from previous users who had successfully purchased from account "x".  Thanks.

They r public by default.

Great, that's what I thought.  I'll see if nexern would be able to implement into Blockchain

Heard back from Nexern on including public messages (reputation system) with each account in BlockChain explorer as well as his new client.  He is going to include it.  We can now use public AM as a feedback/reputation system, since the transaction # will be associated with the message, you can check to make sure the transaction and feedback was legit and associated with a particular item for sale.  This will allow us to create simple listing markets (craigslist style), where most of the transaction can happen within the client from reputable sellers.

Still need some innovation but it's a step closer.

Would love to hear some input on this, before it gets buried in posts.

People selling Nxt aren't going to be able to stomach the long term.  I remember seeing BTC fall from $31 to $2 in 2011.  It stayed around $2-$5 for so long.  I look at Nxt as a long term investment.  I'm not looking for any kind of return and I certainly wouldn't measure that in $'s.  Was your friend looking for a quick return to buy something?  Regardless, you made a very smart decision. 


There are only 2 long term investments in my crypto portfolio. BTC and NXT. I can't see anything else worth waiting.

Nxt is the first alt I've ever purchased.  I never even considered LTC or anything other than BTC....until now.

BCNext devised a way to handover unclaimed coins in such a way that doesn't require multisig and still keeps the spirit of decentralization.

cool,

You has done a great work, but please reference to the paper or mark it as an summery of it.
That would make it more "consistent" in eyes of some kind of people.

Some weeks ago I was starting an similar thread in german sub forum with, lets say, not so much resonance ;-)
Maybe the client with assets will change the situation...

Important announcement

BCNext devised a way to handover unclaimed coins in such a way that doesn't require multisig and still keeps the spirit of decentralization.

BCNext will choose 10 people. I'll contact these people privately to ask for an account id. Each of them will create a special account and send it to me. 1M NXT will be sent to each account (10M total, not 9M, so the community is supposed to subsidize the public nodes by itself). Jean-Luc will be asked to add a special code that blocks outgoing transactions from these special accounts. When the community decides how to spend part of the unclaimed coins, Jean-Luc will change the code to allow partial withdrawals possible. 10 chosen ones will send 1/10th of the required amount to the account the funds r supposed to go to.

I think this is a good idea, badly implemented.  Instead of changing code to make 10 accounts special, why not prioritize the Account Control feature and then implement this plan using THAT?

I think NXT market gains should be measured from the value of initial release (~$1 million), not the 21BTC as that is a token amount and does not represent real world development costs.

James

Good idea.

"Do not pay much attention to the price of 1 NXT measured in fiat money." - BCNext


But the price of 1 Nxt measured in BTC is falling, although there were several good news in the last few days. I couldn't convince one of my friends whom funds I am managing to hold on his Nxts, so I bought his stake. I really hope it wasn't a bad decision of me.

People selling Nxt aren't going to be able to stomach the long term.  I remember seeing BTC fall from $31 to $2 in 2011.  It stayed around $2-$5 for so long.  I look at Nxt as a long term investment.  I'm not looking for any kind of return and I certainly wouldn't measure that in $'s.  Was your friend looking for a quick return to buy something?  Regardless, you made a very smart decision.  

It was his very first crypto investment. I told him about Nxt, he gave me fiat, which I converted to BTC and bought Nxt for him at .00008
I felt guilty (although I told him several times that in the crypto world the possible roi is high because the risk is high, too) so I paid him 0.00005 Smiley

Not to bash or anything, but such articles should be proofread.

"It is brand new [, built?] from scratch with its own code." - also phrased badly

"peer-peer" - correct is "peer-to-peer"

Your point "but it was announced 6 weeks in advance" is weak. Who cares? If you want to seriously take on inequality, this is not the way to do it. It's just a lame red herring.

Are you sure that decentralized exchange will remove all "trust points"? I don't know much about it, but if it's anything like Ripple, you will still need a lot of trust for gateways.

"(pun intended)" - what pun?

Many sentences should be rephrased, because this is crazy:

Quote
Proof of Stake doesn’t involve ‘mining’ per se, so it’s important to realize that unlike Bitcoin exists currently, and like Bitcoin will exist in 2140 when all of it is mined, all NXT that will ever exist already exists, so client wallets now forge (in NXT the term ‘mining’ is replaced with ‘forging’) for transaction fees.

"are competed"? Maybe they just compete? Smiley

"client is based on java" - it's not based on Java, it's written in Java Smiley

Anyway, the point is - proofread!

New Blog post:
NxtMyths 1. Nxt is not a scam, it wasn’t created by anonymous developers
= chapter 1 from my NxtMyths paper, will be used as a documentation for the Nxtmyths video
by: SalsaCZ

+ I would like share some marketing plans in the Nxt PR Marketing thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4555415, feel free to comment!

Hi salsacz, thanks for your great paper.

BTW, I'm curious that how do you know BCNext is 35+ years old, CfB is 34 years old, and Jean-Luc is 30+ years old and hold PhD? Thanks.

sorry for the delay, I added citations to the paper, now you can see where the sources come from:

+ there are some new quotes about BCnext..

Im 100% with jl777 on moving away from AM to 'arbitrary data'.

Or something more sexy, like Distributed Storage.

Or Blockchain Cloud Smiley

Get creative, guys!





Or just call it Nxt Message, because messaging is what it is and I like messaging.

ethereum has some interesting features. esp. the DACs getting my attention.
some questions for those with a fresher overview about this:

1. DACs are first defined by a company called invictus?
2. is there any real working DAC in any running system now?
3, if so, where and what kind of task?
4. would it make sense to create DACs for nxt?
5. if so, would this lead into real media attention or is this just buzz?

1. Yes, Daniel Larimer (bytemaster) is the coiner of the phrase.
2. Bitcoin and many many other crypto-protocols
3. See no.2
4. NXT is a DAC but could be subdivided into smallers DACS by forking the protocol like protoshares will be forked to bitshares, etc.
5. No it wouldn't lead to any extra attention

thx for the info marcelus, it seems i have had a totally different approach in understanding DACs.
calling bitcoin a DAC seems not very logic to me, autonomous neither, perhaps i mixed up with
smart contracts.

Can we build DACs on top of NXT?

PS : PTS will not be forked to BTS. BTS will consists of several blockchains, PTS entitle future property of the tokens of these several BTS blockchains.
