Its already running close to one hour now and ist still on block 1. I have 19 connected peers....do you think adding peers manually would help?
If so, do you by any chance have a link to a peer list and how to add them?
Thanks

Use http://nxtra.org/nodes/ to get peers.
Switch "communicationLoggingMask" to "3" and send me log after 5 mins of working.
It is chicken and egg. If we just started trading peercover NXT/BTC on ripple, there will be liquidity. We don't need to worry about any other thing trading on ripple. NXT/BTC is like a colored coin that is just using ripple for exchange.
Because NXT is introducing its own system of colored coins through Distributed Assets Exchange soon, using Ripple to trade NXT hurts value of NXTs they hold. Ripple and NXT are more competitors than Bitcoin and NXT are. So, anyone who wants NXT to succeed should not use Ripple to trade NXT. Are my assumptions wrong? If they are wrong, why?
ripple is to NXT as classical music is to grunge rock
both are music, even though each group will claim the other group is not. It is my assessment that they can both coexist peacefully and advantageously to each other. A symbiosis.
If you ever want to convert NXT to USD, ripple makes it trivially easy. Maybe you don't want to, you don't have to. ripple is oriented toward being the cross currency payment system. NXT as you know is quite a bit more than that. Is there overlap, sure, probably around 5%. Gee, that's about what dgex is charging isn't it. Keep paying dgex usurious fees or trade on ripple without cost.
The only cost is because people are not using peercover's ripple gateway. If we used it, spreads will come down. The high spread is the only cost and that is because people are not using it.

Hey, something strange happened to me today. After I noticed that I seemed to be on a fork (my block did not correspond to the one on the blockexplorer), I copied my blocks.nxt files to a backup location and then deleted them in my client folder. Then I copied a older blockchain in to the folder (from block 29k) but it did not get any new blocks, even after 10 min of waiting and 20+ active peers. I also tried to download from scratch, but no luck, same thing. Just won't download the block chain 
Any thoughts what I can do to get the block chain to download?
Thanks!

when this happens I blow away the whole nxt folder and unzip the latest ver and then copy over a blockchain backup annd restart. sometimes ill reboot. its the only way to be sure (nuke it from orbit)
Tried all of that, already. Deleted everything, rebooted my PC, copied the files from the download folder in my Nxt folder, tried to download from scratch and tried to download with may backup blocks.nxt....
Nothing helped (usually it dose)
What version? 0.4.8+? Catch blocks from block 0.
First I was using 0.4.8 then after this problem accursed I also downloaded version 0.4.9e....both with no luck
And yes, I ryed to catch the blocks from block 0....aswell as from block 29k (my back up )
Though something I do notice now, which is strange, there are no .nxt.back files
Leave it for half an hour, it will catch blocks eventually.

I recommend to make use of this, of course.
The practical solution.
Dgex may be able to charge! 
But should not be today!
Today is an important release date, is not it?

did you try 0.4.9e yet? it's actually more stable and has more peers in the web.xml file.

I disagree. Those bounties will help find other potential flaws in code more than any occasional code reviewer. If people are that shortsighted they shouldn't invest in anything.
My point was that as soon as you read the post, you get the impression that NXT is broken. Newbies will think fatal flaw, and they will assume that NXT doesn't work so they won't buy it. Bounties are great, but the wording was a shocking.

Also it doesn't help the price when the source is released, and the first things being said are that there are 3 major, fatal flaws with it. If that doesn't stop a buyer, I don't know what will.
I agree. That wasn't done properly.

When the price is rising nothing can stop the buyer
People like to buy when the price is rising.

what are the fees associated there? I cant seem to find any info page on the main site there, just a create account or login links
For now there are absolutely no fees.
But this will probably change when the exchange becomes more popular. In case the fees are introduced, they will be announced beforehand and also anyone who deposited while there were no fees will be able to withdraw with no fees. I will not hold anyone's money hostage.
Trying it out and looks like nxtchg.com is good alternative to dgex! But, you need to make a password reset form ASAP otherwise you'll get a ton of support requests about forgotten/lost passwords.
BTW you have a PM about lost password
That is not right, you can't change fees when you own nearly 90M NxT + X BTC of your customers without giving a timeframe to withdrawal with the old rules.
Would you kindly suggest how to deal with the missing 800k NXT please? Consider the rate of NXT shoots up significantly, not that I would have 70 BTC extra in my pockets to cover it right now.DGEX offered people free trading of NXT for 5 weeks.
Why did you choose TODAY of all days to do this heinous thing?

Charge fees. But announce them ahead of time. You can still implement a grace period for those who deposited under the old fee schedule. Otherwise you risk ruining your reputation and losing a lot of money long-term. You will be much worse off if you follow through with a short-sighted cash grab.
that's it.
dgex like a thief!
Unless dgex raises fees to 30%!

Another exchange would open, it's not like it's rocket science to open one, just a full time job, that's all.
Except everybody who has anything on deposit would lose a significant percentage of their value. As it is not only are we confronted with horrible fees, EVERYONE with any NXT deposited at dgex is looking at an instant and unwarranted 20% loss of market value.
This might be short term, but the timing is suspicious and it creates a big hill to climb just when we should be celebrating the release of source code.
James
I agree that everyone should be given an opportunity to withdraw for 0% for the next 1-3 days and give a warning that the fees will be this % high after that period. That would be long term business approach.
However, what I said is I don't worry about the price of NXT, because if network and functions are being worked on as planned, the price long term will take care of itself.

Not to mention I heard people were putting stuff back into DGEX for safe keeping due to the recent password hack.
