In time funds will be distributed more so it is not a big issue imho..

If this is not an issue why not change the starting post:

"The total amount of Nxt in circulation is 1 billion."
to
"The total amount of 1 billion ever in circulation is owned by the 50 stakeholders"


as i said, i dont really want to talk about it, you are gonna say its ok, its nothing important bla... and im gonna say otherwise. we never gonna get an agreement;)

edit: dont want to make Nxt look bad, but constructively point out "weak" points. i dont even talk about the whole "50ppl own everything and sell it for so much higher than what they paid for" thing Tongue

It's called being a stakeholder. We showed faith in BCNext and put our BTC at risk when nobody else did. Why would we take such a risk if we didn't expect a return? We helped fund this little project.

as i said, i wont go into detail about this particular topic.. if you think this is not a problem for ppl, post it in the OP Wink

im trying out the client because im interested how it works etc. and if i find something that seems "flawed" i talk about it.

I don't have a problem with the early adopters on this forum having thousands of bitcoins either. They took a much bigger risk than us that came later. BCNext could've just ran away with the 21 BTC that was donated.. non of us had any clue, it was very risky.. but we thought it sounded interesting and bought a lottery ticket.

I haven't sold a single NXT yet so I could still end up with nothing. Smiley

this is a totally different thing, as BTC can be mined no mather how much you own.
A miner is a believer - if you believe it is worth mining a coin you have to pay! Regardless if you already have coins or not (in PoW).

So if you really believe in Nxt pay $5-10K to buy them - that is what you have to pay for the best ASIC.

And instead of stupid pre-orders you actually get the coins + mining.

I see this as a HUGE improvement in fairness...

je support the "miners" who is basically the one who is super rich already anyways. this whole concept is so flawed ...

Imagine there are only 2 miners, Alice with 9M coins and Bob with 1M.
If we have 10 blocks each with 0.1M fee then Alice gets 0.9M and Bob gets 0.1M.
Alice gets +10% and Bob gets +10%.

Could u explain where u see a flaw there?


in theory this is true, but the problem is most miners die before they see their 10% gain.

you would need a global pool where all ppl mine and the payout from every blocks transaction fees is divided among all of them according to their %capital of the total capital.

otherwise this doesnt work in "reality"

Thought I would check in on my client and... oh my lord NullPointer-gone-wild.

Thx. Now let's wait for the Nxt update Smiley

Despite this, I must say it's running better than ever now. I haven't had any problems with transactions, peers, or blocks.

Would love to see a non-java client 'account' software.  For those poor souls that can't run anything on java.

I wouldn't mind either.

Why would anyone every spend more than 1 NXT on their transaction fee?

To support miners I believe.
I paid tx fee from 10 to 100 each time to support the miners!
Let's award them a bit more for securing the network for us:)

But it's always the same miners (those with the highest balances) that get coins.  You'd be doing NXT a bigger service if you sent NXT to random accounts from the block chain explorer whose balances are low.

once were able to exchange nxt to btc etc the coins will be more spread out.
