Hi guys,

We would need some PR and marketing on big, trusted sites like Yahoo Financials or Financial Times Online or whatever. There is a bounty for it. Does anyone know about someone having the power to do it? The last time, when the price hit it's highest we had some media coverage (and the alias feature added) which helped to get new Nxters on the boat.

What we need is a Nxt SR market, that would really drive the price of Nxt

Nxt has its upswing on new features released and usability. I think the market will take care of itself if we have a fully functioning client (nexern). We really need something to talk with the media about, at this point we have a relatively unstable client with a huge list of potential features, need to be patient.

I agree that we shouldn't worry much about marketing right now.

I think that it should be a continuous task to update the media about Nxt and the news around it.

True that. I think SR gave Bitcoin the much needed baseline to survive...

Just please don't do it until major bugs are fixed and address checksums are implemented.

Otherwise numerous reports of people losing money will be enough to bury Nxt forever Sad

I'm working on setting up a news site, purchased nxtnews.co and of course the alias..

setting up a host and getting wordpress installed. plan on an honest, unfiltered outlet for articles, charts, and trends.

if anyone had any suggestions or wants to contribute, please let me know

We do have http://info.nxtcrypto.org as our news site that is updated very regularly. also there is a forum for news items discussion at https://forums.nxtcrypto.org/viewforum.php?f=49 please give it another shot - we've recently changed the site look.

We're always happy for increased contribution in the forums!

Hey opticalcarrier, thanks for those links, I know about nxtcrypto and have even contributed articles, but there is some biased editing going on there. i had articles killed on nxt gambling sites and more importantly on dgex adding fees. these are important things for the community to know, and its not acceptable to just pretend all is hunky dory.

I'm not trying to pick a fight, but I think we as investors need to full story.

I find it very strange that a thread on dgex adding fees was deleted on nxtcrypto.org Can you tell me when this happened and your user ID there? I will track it down, there are only few people there with those permissions and it wasnt me

hey OC, not on forums, but on the news site. I submitted and was told they didnt want to publish these kinds of articles.

can you message to me what you posteD?

Most people you see running the show are actually people who jumped in and started doing things they saw needed doing.
This leads to a certain lack of coordination, maybe, but Nxt is very much a community of people who volunteer.

And I respect that Damelon but there is a disdain among contributors here that there should be any source of centralized information or decision-making, which I think gets to the heart of what ZerotheGreat is arguing.

Is there any type of leadership in this project that is going to say, X is the official forum. The most authentic information is here at X. Or are we just going to let people blindly navigate this "de-centralized" fairyland because "screw centralization"?

No official forum. You would have to decide for yourself: where do you like to be, who do you want to trust etc. It would be confusing at first, but when you take the red pill and stays in wonderland, you will finally be free.

In the interest of time this is a terrible, terrible idea organizationally and strategically if NXT is to succeed in any sort of meaningful way.

I disagree, but then Bitcoin and NXT would only attract to a certain type of people. For God's sake, we are not a a corporation. You could invest in Facebook if you want that sort of things.

Thanks for the clarification. But NXT is a project, and like any other project known to man it needs cohesion and direction, and a clear source of authentic information that is easy to find for others who want to get involved. Enough with the elitist view on crypto. If it really is "so much more" than Bitcoin, why is it reserved for a select few?

I post a few days ago in nexcoin.org that aws.amazon.com cloud gives 1 year free micro t1 VPS
I have a windows one free and now I added onepaid both with slightly more than 600mb ram. It seems that the nxt nodes run ok on them. I don't have them hallmarked but I thought we run as many like them as we could to support the stability.

It costs 0 for 1 year.
Go make accounts in aws.amazon.com and set up a VPS with nxt node.
You need to modify the web.xml

myAddress

PUT THE VPS IP HERE

Don't put money to fogrge just run nxt client.

Just running nxt node (client) with 0 nxt in it will help the stability right?? or am I confused again!!!!

wesleyh, anyone else -- does someone know what's going on with the Mac client?

Running wesley's .19/0.5.0. App tells me .0.5.2 is available, try updating numerous times but can't due to hash mismatch.

Delete app, redownload... now the app just spins looking as if it's trying to download it's first block (ni icons available to enter secret passphrase, etc). Deleted the blockchain.nrs, relaunched, same thing -- nada.

Suggestions?

but trusting and giving up all decisions to a certain specialist who decides everything certainly is.

Why certain specialist (and you meant "black box" mind)? Trusted transparent enough core, if someone start to act weird, community or split up or find/form/merge around another trusted core. It's wotking with any P2P-system.

That is to your friend who you seem to be in an agreement with.

What's your point? I see no scenarios, where P2P-system can grow without built-out center. It can be very big (in amount of people), but still very well bounded and divided from all users of system. And, yes, GVS doesn't solve this problem, after decision was made, someone'd do it, and, say, core dev (if there's still no NxtPolice) simply can go away with personal disagreement. So again: Why?

Which problem can be solved with Global Voting, but can not be solved with actions of people?

Hey, re-reading my last couple of posts I think perhaps my tone sounded a bit negative where that wasn't my intention. I just wanted to let you know I like all the stuff you're doing.

A+++ WOULD F5 AGAIN.

It's wotking with any P2P-system. I can repeat: no system can survive without built-out center. But that kind of center playing with complex rules and very hard to cheat. Output: are u trust that center enough? If it plays well, u'll.

GVS not instantly'll create built-in center, but it make it possible to happen. Why we need that possibility?
