Topic: NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information - page 2421. (Read 2761627 times)
Well, guys... I'm going to create a new thread about transparent/predictable mining. Right now I'm reading the 1st part of BCNext's plan that he decided to reveal. It's about a solution of Selfish mining problem. Also he states that this solves 51% attack problem (adversary must own 90%+ coins to successfully attack the network). We agreed that I won't copy-paste the text (to avoid text style analysis) but rather write it by myself in other words, so it will take some time. BCNext was waiting in hope that price becomes more affordable for newcomers but we all have some deadlines set, so... Check this thread time to time, I'll post the link here. It's unknown how BCNext's paper will change the price, don't invest money you can't afford to lose.
To prevent permanent loss of nxt units to the network as a whole, some type of reclamation process could be programmed in?
This is overcomplicating things too much. Users must learn to securely deal with their money, irresposible actions must have a price to pay. The system as a whole doesn't care if someone loses money, same is true for bitcoin, same should be true for NXT.
Looks like the balance zero problem still exist, I'm running 0.3.16
Yes, while we r waiting for more guys setting hallmarks, I'll fix this issue.
I think that will be the chance to recover lost accounts.
will be that possible?

No, there is no way to make sure it's a lost account. What if someone uses it for cold storage?

Same here - saw zero balance, freaked out for a second :p
just blockchain save my nerve

Hmm, couldn't say without a white paper/ source code. I would assume its similar to pruning, but "shrinking" could be interpreted as a type of compression.
Actually it's supposed to be such a way:
1. Take all non-zero balances.
2. Generate a new genesis block.
3. Start a new blockchain.
4. Put old blockchain to somewhere for those who wish to check that new genesis block is legit.
I think that will be the chance to recover lost accounts.
will be that possible?
Done, thanks. I see my IP shows, how do I get my dns to be the one thats showing instead of my IP?
I just put the hostname there instead of the IP. Both under myAddress in the web.xml file, and also when generating the hallmark.Quote
Can you explain the weighted thing more? Should I transfer more of my coins to my dedicated VPS for whatever the weighted reason might be?
Not sure what you mean transfer the coins. You never need to unlock your account at the VPS. If you have several accounts, and only one public IP (the VPS), use the account with the highest balance when generating the hallmark. I don't know if CfB provided a way to combine the balance of several accounts to vouch for one node, probably not.great I see the dns now on the active peers. Thank You
What is the tietoiseen and why the http://nextcoin.org waiting for secure connection on the 80th port with self-singned cert from by tietoiseen 
Now all looks fine. I don't know what it was that...
But still on 443 port I see self-singned cert from by tietoiseen. Is it normal?

Enabled "allowedUserHosts"
Added "logPeerCommunication" in web.xml
Added http://localhost:7874/nxt?requestType=getPeer&peer=88.198.210.245 to get peer info
Added http://localhost:7874/nxt?requestType=getConstants to get peer state values with description
Disabled blacklisting (to test changes in peer picking mechanism)
Added peer weight visualization
PS: Guys, don't forget about the hallmark! Only a few peers added it.
I had to clear the browser cache to get to see the peer weights. Indeed too few have added it.Enabled "allowedUserHosts"

Clearing the peers.nxt file may also be a good idea at this release, to remove the blacklisted.
The disappearing balance bug is unfortunately still present.
when I'm putting in my hallmark code do i need to have {"hallmark":" in from the code?
No, just the very long string of characters after that. Without the quotes.Done, thanks. I see my IP shows, how do I get my dns to be the one thats showing instead of my IP?

What is the hallmark?
How's colored coins debugging coming along?
Edit: I believe you posted earlier that this shrinking mechanism would be up to a POS vote. Is it automated or is someone expected to steward the blockchain?
I don't know details, sorry.
