heh, can an innocent node just relay transactions from a rogue node and be an 'accomplice' of a sort? Smiley

It'd suck for an unsuspecting owner of that hallmarked node if his coins are destroyed just because his node took part in falsifying transactions without his knowledge of this fact Smiley

Incorrect transactions r not relayed.

Yeah, indeed, why would they be? I just felt like asking something smart Cheesy turned out it was a stupid question haha

later we can vote on destroying all the coins that marked this rogue node, MUAHAHAHAHAHA
Without jokes with Voting Systen such thing become possible? How technically coins can be destroyed w/o free will of owner? "—"-transaction from Genesis-account or something like this or not at all?

And, Genesis account can do anything more powerful than all other accounts or not?

Hey i understand that, and I know that blockchain explorer is down and was out of date but it was showing me as only having forged two blocks. Maybe that was the error? and just to prove a point, I did forge a block today, and got 5nxt for it, but the transfer amount was 0. what gives?

5      0 + 5      690 B   
1      11528302169866366592      433 %

That's OK. There were only 5 AS transactions inside.

Hey CfB

 how about some thoughts on blocks not forging? I have 280k and have attempted to keep myself logged in for the last two weeks. there have been overnight crashes and freezes, but my countdown timer keeps ticking, but never gets to zero. I have forged two blocks in two weeks, when according to my calculations it should be every 4000 minutes, but it never happens.
 I'm showing a week since I earned a fee 7213693579568855752 my account is 15436509232181115695
 I understand it's not going to make me rich, but I wonder if there is something I can do to improve this

thanks

If u forge empty blocks u don't see them in ur transactions list.

Getting loads of these.... ideas for debugging?

Ur node is fed with incorrectly generated transactions. Is pullThreshold > 0? If yes, then one of the hallmarked nodes is controlled by an adversary. Switch logging on, later we can vote on destroying all the coins that marked this rogue node, MUAHAHAHAHAHA.

Edit: There is a chance that someone pushes incorrect transactions to ur node. NRS doesn't log such requests yet.

What's the story with this? Where can I find more info? How can an account be 100000 (6 digits)? There's no passphrase you could put in the client to generate an account with so few characters.

Someone just made a mistake sending a payment. I believe in 10 years someone will be able to get a key that opens that account.

Edit: I foresee a company that will create computing cluster solely to pick the key. Any ASIC producer could do that.

A nice bounty on the '100000' account, but more prestige on the '1' account!

Which brings us on to the (irrelevant) question of who has the lowest/shortest active account ID? Best I could manage is: 21216510408.

http://localhost:7874/nxt?requestType=getBalance&account=100000 and you only need to crack for the 1st 14 digits of a candidate shortform/visible account ID to be zeros.

But I think I may have been wrong on the keyspace part.  Is it 2^64 or is it 2^(256-64) I cant think right now.

Regardless of all that, can someone explain how the first 64bits of a 256bit long account# is translated into the "shortform" or visible ID we see as 20digits?  I cant figure out that math in my head either.  Is it some kind of weird BCD?

Keyspace is just 2^64, this is equal to 2^71 double-SHA256 operations. U could save some ticks by doing SHA256(Curve25519(ANY_256_BITS)) instead of SHA256(Curve25519(SHA256(SECRET_PHRASE))).

Short form is unsigned long of first 64 bits in little-endian form.

Cfb,
when connect to a publicly accessible node

node.ip:7875/nxt?requestType=getState

doesn't work - I get

{"errorCode":7,"errorDescription":"Not allowed"}

even if i log in with a passphrase..

Is this by design or am I doing something wrong?
Ian


This is by design. allowedBotHosts is not set to *.

That weird format:  https:\/\/vircurex.com\/welcome\/index?referral_id=667-22323 is OK - there's no error here. This is JSON format.

I tried nxt:vircurex in firefox and it works as it should, what output do you get?

It will not forward me to the URL. It just stays at nxt:vircurex and the webpage opens up all messed up.

If your add-on is working, then it is ALL GOOD!!!   Grin  ...I wanted to give you a heads up just in case...

The web page opens up though? And it's not an issue with your webpage? How is it supposed to look like?

Just visit the referral link I quoted and see if they are different on your end too.

Please try http://nxtra.org/alias/NxtAliasSystem.xpi - you may want to remove the old extension first. Let me know if this fixes it.

Just a quick suggestion / reminder (https://nextcoin.org/index.php/topic,840.msg6875.html#msg6875) for marketing purposes:

Wouldn't it be useful and naturally understandable, if we would use the following wording pattern for Nxt:

- Nxt
- Nxt coins
- Nxt messaging
- Nxt ...


Colored coins are called "NXT colored coins". Is this a temporary name for it or why do we call it "NXT colored coins" but normal coins just "NXT"?

Assets in the Nxt Asset Exchange are called Asset or Tokens....or whatever its still evolving as we speak

can you verify with your IT guy how that DDOS prevention works?  Cause Im not certain yet if that will help us, as I thought the DDOS we were seeing was a specialized protocol that worked well above OSI layers 4/5.  I thought the DDOS attacks we were seeing were well into the cient protocol operation.  IF that is the case then Im not sure this DDOS thing you have will help.

Can an expert who has analyzed the DDoS attacks comment here?  Please let us know what your IT guy says.  If this is viable then we all really need to go figure out how to make this work on our particular distros on our VPSs

Yes I would like to know this as well. If if does, I can deploy it on my VPSs
Forwarded this to him, I will let u know asap...

I have an idea which would help distribute some of your Nxt and also help Nxt develop for the long term.


We will start a contest where the 10 best ideas for a client feature or application which would help Nxt grow over the next 5 years.

We would be open to entries from all Nxters and the community will vote for the best 10 ideas which would get funding.

The development fund would be managed by those currently in charge of the bounty program.

10 idea's each get 200,000 NXT to implement their feature or application to the Nxt ecosystem.


Total Development Fund Needed: Nxt 2,000,000


I can immediately start the thread where idea's can be deposited....Final voting can begin in a weeks time.


What do you guys think?


 

Make it happen!
