IDEX - LIVE Real-time DEX
Even EVEN more nodes deployed!

Just deployed 10 nodes to Toyko! That's node71-node80. DNS is still rolling out.

That's 81 nodes in 8 different geographic locations!

Up nxt: California!

Status

Nodes deployed: 81
Nodes queued: 12

Data centers: Atlanta, Dallas, Chicago, Northern VA, Hong Kong, Sydney, London, Toyko

Sponsorship

To reach the goal of 100 public nodes by Jan 3, we need only 19'500 nxt! So close! To support increased network robustness, please send 3000 nxt to 11243542237777034551 to sponsor a node until the end of March. Vanity nodes are available for 4500 nxt with your own hallmark and name.

Thank you to everyone working so hard to help NXT be a success.

Raspberry Pis are a cheap way to stand up lots of new nodes fast to stabilize the network from DDoS attack more so than using them for forging new NXT coins.

I guessed as much - I'm running 3 nodes to do my small part to help... I just wonder if some people will mistakenly buy PIs thinking they are mining machines for NXT - which it is clear they are not and they would have been better increasing their stake... Of course if they want to buy 5 or 10 PIs to help the network that is fine but are they clear it won't help them get more NXT unless someone is paying them to do it of course.

They are cheap way to always keep 1 node unlocked without messing with your primary computer. They would also be a cool way to have secure remote access to NXT.
Just buy more RPis... Part of the profit goes to RPi Foundation  Smiley

Is there any reliability in the "you can generate the next block in" calculation?  Mine fluctuates from 5 hours to 20 days and then back again.  Also, maybe a stupid question, but if I never generate my own block (I'm assuming this is possible considering I have 28k NXT), will I ever generate any fees?  Or are most of us just holding the coins for appreciation in value?

The FAQ basically says it is a véry rough guideline, so I myself don't pay attention to it anymore.

I don't really come from outer space.
how come my aliases don't appear in the blockchain explorer?

http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=3000&acc=2188420453403939369


Your aliases are there, the nxt explorer just has trouble with some account's aliases.  It just needs a little work yet.

My local client says you have the following aliases:

{"aliases":[{"alias":"meizirkki","uri":"nothingyet"},{"alias":"loviisa","uri":"nothingyet"},{"alias":"aces","uri":"nothingyet"},{"alias":"roope","uri":"nothingyet"},{"alias":"Kuikka","uri":"nothingyet"},{"alias":"windrider","uri":"nothingyet"},{"alias":"Kuisma","uri":"nothingyet"},{"alias":"tampere","uri":"nothingyet"},{"alias":"ensiferum","uri":"nothingyet"}]}

why i only get 1 alias on in my account that i apply more than 10, it is 3days pass i dont think time is the reason,there must something wrong,someone knows?

You can check your aliases here: https://localhost:7875/nxt?requestType=listAccountAliases&account=YOURACCOUNT

Aliases are added manually for the time being according to the info on the blockchain viewer: "ALIASES (until stable, updated manually every 24h)"

yes i checked,it is only one i dont know what happened

That's strange.
I applied for loads, can see one on my account page atm, but with that link I can see all the ones I applied for.
Hopefully a developer can help you out.

On dgex a see small orders. How did they sell from 84000000$(coinmarketcap) to 67000000$(coinmarketcap) their nxt??
The market cap is just math, current market price * total number of coins

If market price drops .01; the impact is .01 * 999,997,986 NXT. ($1mil)

Someone (most probably a big stakeholder) is selling off parts of his nxts as he realized that distributing it is the only way nxt can succeed. There were a few 1+M transfers to the exchange from accounts with a lot of nxt.

It's quite nice to be in a community where people are actually cheering when prices drop.  Grin

Big drops are good. Squeeze out all the speculators  Grin

Which leads to a more solid price.

Is there something weird going on in nxt network / blockchain?

http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=2000&tra=14529141608986373607

there's one of my transactions: Over 12 hour ago it was 556/1440 confirmations and now it is 530/1440. What happened to 26 confirmations? And is it normal to take +24h for 1440?

1 Transaction per min, give or take so yes 1440 a day

thats 1 block per minute target.  a block can contain lots of transactions.  thats why it was such a cool score when I won the lottery for block 22000 and temporarily became top miner even though my stake is a very modest 0.2%

Yep, sorry, 1 block per min target, my fingers got ahead of my brain, and yes we haven't been quite reaching that target yet. Soon!

We're all stakeholders in alpha phase at this point.  How about some "bonus" to all active accounts from the genesis block members Smiley  I'm not a communist

I think everyone with a couple of brain cells agrees that NXT technology is better than BTC (and any other coin for that matter) and that there won't be any valid point to keep using BTC once the NXT source code is released.
the only issue is assuring mass adoption.
for example LTC , although now being a pointless coin from a technical point of view (NXT, XPM, DTC ans some others are all much faster ), still carries on thanks to mass adoption as everyone who had a semi-decent computer and graphic card in the past year owns some of it by now.
the mass adoption issue though is easily resolvable if the original investors and current big players devolve at least 5% of their investment to the faucet. that would mean possibly 5 million new users holding at least 1 coin. that would actually make it more democratic and a fair coin than BTC or LTC....as anyone who is even remotely interested in crypto would get 1 NXT for free guaranteed and without even mining. people who want a bigger stake can then buy them, mine , do bounties etc . in other words a free market. would be fair&square.
so getting the faucet to work properly and in timely fashion is essential and the faucet link should be right below installation instructions as that 1 NXT coin is their access coin into the system.
btw the original investors are not at all as tight as I thought....I reeceived a more than generous donation to now get me started and although I'm very grateful (thx again!) it is better to give many people 1 coin rather than just throw at some random guy 100 coins (who he  might be tempted to just sell for a quick profit) .
 I know manually sending to many people 1 coin is a pain and time consuming.....that's why I think the main wealth redistribution  should be the faucet.  while the faucet is still having issues try giving out that 1 coin to all newbies who are trying to get in .
if by official launch (when the source code gets released) over 1 million ppl will be holding at least 1 key (all the bitcointalk community pretty much)...it will be unstoppable imo.
