Topic: NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information - page 2321. (Read 2761629 times)

3 things kept me awake late at night (regarding computer use):
1) Porn/chat
2) Football Manager
3) Cryptos

Much excite!

300 blocks more...

When is it coming? im worried that my stake will not be effective soon enough.

Will the losing "bids" on various alias' be returned to the losers, or will they all be charged.
No kidding. Whoever wins will end up with a sizable amount of Nxt.

I hope I win the fee lottery for this block coming up

Just wait for the chain to get upto date block and your Nxt should return.

Can't wait to see the whole process unfolding.

Yep I am excited about the mining fees also...    much wow

we might have slow confirmations lasting days to hours for regular transactions

I could be wrong about this. But i dont think block explorer tells you how consistently someone was forging. Like whether or not they were forging non stop for a given amount of time. Im hoping to hear from someone who i know for a fact was forging non stop for a full 24 hours.

OK I RESTARTED BLOCKCHAIN AND MY NXT ARENT SHOWING UP....What's wrong?

Its a transaction, so the fee goes to the miners

Where do the coins used for alias go?
Sorry for dumb question..

EDIT: miners?

What is everyone planning to do when registering alias?

If you end up with one passphrase holding 100 aliases and the function to trade an alias is never implemented I'm struggling to see the benefits and less so an alias that is tied to an passphrase tied to many more aliases.

An option for profiting from an alias without the trading function would be leasing your alias to a company with a contract that stipulates for x amount of time your alias will direct to y website and z email and any money received by that alias during x amount of time is property of the company leasing the alias. I figure this would work if you can prove ownership of the account and you could be prosecuted for fraud/theft etc, but as stated above if you register 100 aliases to one account and then try and lease them it would be very confusing when there are another 100 aliases also tied to the account.

Overall I'm still struggling to see the value of an alias that is untradeable if you don't plan on actually building a business yourself with the alias and I feel that NXT would have to become significantly bigger than bitcoin for there to be any value.

I've seen it stated that making them untradeable to there to stop squatting and I dislike squatting but I think you would still have a problem with trolling, people  registering thousands of aliases just so someone else can not.


I've read a read and skimmed a decent chunk of this thread and not see what happens to the fee you place on buying the alias? Say I pay 1000 NXT for batman does the 1000 NXT go to the account that forges that block?

Haha. Well, I can't quite afford dropping 100k to secure any of the major alias, like Google, so I'm doing it to try and snag one, by sheer luck.

People need to be aware that using a public wall it instead of localhost you you can expose your passphrase

Sorry to bother again but how do I redownload blockchain?

Loll I was hoping I was the only person going to try that trick
