NOT TO BURST EVERYONE'S BUBBLE….

but Nxt is completely 100% susceptible to the 51% attack

its the 51% developer attack.

If someone gets 51% of the development talent, gets old source code etc, Nxt is completely destroyed by….

Nxt1 Nxt2 Nxt3 Nxt4 Nxt5 …… Nxt 1000000

has anyone thought of this??

Thank God you weren't ready to dump your life savings into NXT!

Your faux inquisitiveness is really, really wearing thin. Please read the wiki re: PoS vs. 51%.

Honestly, I am here for an open, logical debate. I don't want to mislead or use bs arguments, I just want to get to the facts before I invest into Nxt.

edit: I sometimes get excited and throw in an occasional troll but overall i'm debating logically to try to feel out this coin

Yes. And noone cares. Coz "Nxt5" doesn't make sense. "Nxt" is always "next".

AFAIK the magnet link is a hash code that directly opens the default torrent client on you machine and starts downloading the file. There is no need for the alias if you are having a webpage. The user clicks on the link "Pretty Woman" (which is a magnet link) and the default torrent client is opened up, no need for the alias. Or do I miss something?

yeah, if you put a magnet link on a website, it can be downloaded directly (then you don't need Nxt ecosystem for it)
... that's what you mean?

Yes, that was my question

So storing the hash in the alias makes only sense if it is integrated into the client. But why would anyone pay for it (1nxt for registering an alias) if you can have it for free on a website? I am just thinking loud.

and you are 1% short of my ignore list Wink

rightt so as soon as the bubble of easy dev bounties runs out (early adopters posting mega bounties all the time for simple dev tasks) the coin will lose its rapid pace of development and fall flat on its face as it is copied infinitely!!

say hello to Nxt1, Nxt2, Nxt3, Nxt4, Nxt5, Nxt6, Nxt7 ….. Nxt1000

you can tell me why you think I'm wrong if you would like

Is there a convention/rule for broadcasting AMs, or generally marking them as available to all accounts? E.g. send to self, send to genesis account, send to account '0'?

Choose send to self, or send to genesis account. Send to "0" is an incorrect way.

Is there a better reason to use magnet links over .torrent for this purpose and can they both do away with the need for servers in the torrent system?

magnet links are more general, can link to torrent can link to other stuff (files)
interesting read: http://lifehacker.com/5875899/what-are-magnet-links-and-how-do-i-use-them-to-download-torrents

Actually if you use a magnet link, there is no need for an alias. This would be only important if you wanted to integrate it into the client as if you are having a homapge for torrents, you just can set up a magnet link to the torrent itself, instead of the alias which is then having the magnet link. Am I correct?

Hm, not sure if I understand your question: you could have an alias point to a magnet link or you could send a message containing a magnet link. client software or browser plugin will then have to do the necessary to handle (download) the file behind it

Isn't a planned feature to allow data storage in the blockchain?

Data storage will be provided by Service Providers. Only index data will be stored in the blockchain.

Someone asked me about Cryptsy. They did contact me a hour ago. I already sent all info they asked for.

would be great

Yeah, but it was Vircurex, not Cryptsy. But anyway, even Vircurex would be a huge progress! Keep on going CFB!

I am offering 10k Nxt as a bounty for this.

This can be easily done with Alias System as a magnet link.

So the "uploader" has to pay for it (registering alias).

We could create a webpage where a .torrent file can be uploaded. An alias is being registered with the magnet link.
Users get 10 Nxt (or whatever number) for registering, so they can try it, and upload a few files for free. Then they could purchase additional packages of Nxt. Anyone interested in this project? I am not a good develoepr, but can make a homepage, do the marketing and sales stuff.
