Damelon: Thanks to my proposal we are listed here on the side pannel: http://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/.

What we could do is to complete the reddit campaign Passion was talking about and I was quoting. Funds are in TwinWinNerD's wallet, so if he knows how to do it, he can start..

- Start a Reddit Marketing Campaign. The funds weren't allocate to someone of us.

ehm

TwinWinNerD is probably our new reddit guy after passions leaving, so here is passion's project that should be fullfilled:

salsacz, when nexerns client is published for a few days and we filled the subreddit /r/Nxt with many quality links, I want to start a reddit ad campaign.

http://de.reddit.com/wiki/selfserve
http://www.reddit.com/ad_inq

I will create pictures, other users can create pictures as well. We get 1000 views for 0,75$. We can target specific subreddits like /r/Bitcoin with 100k user or /r/litecoin with 18k user. But we can also target the whole frontpage.

For only 75$ or 1000 NXT we could create 100k views. From interested persons or from every person world wide.

I think it would be nice if we can get a minimum of 24.000 NXT for this. I would use 250 NXT per week to generate about 20000 views each week. In the beginning only on cryptocurrency subreddits. Later I would rotate it, so the "normal" ppl see the ad also.

This campaign I would run for 2 years. What do you guys think?

TwinWinNerD has got 5k Nxt for this now, so it should bring 500k views, if passions numbers were correct.

thanks, I sent a little "reminder" to TwinWinNerD

reddit was funded weeks ago, problem is with activity of current organisator. The only active Nxt reddit mod is Damelon and only thanks to his summaries. Have we got any other reddits experts? If not, I can learn it too, I just learned how to deal with wiki.org  Cool

I am on reddit daily, and answer where needed. Fortunately, we have some active Nxters that do, too Smiley

I'd gladly have you there, too. Just give me your reddit nick and we'll set you up as a moderator Smiley

If people want to help out, they just need to contact me here or on reddit and I can give them moderator powers, if they are willing to be there at least once a day.
There is not much to do at the moment, but we steadily gain subscribers.
I have frequently asked for technical people to help out, as that is what is needed the most there. People post questions about errors, and we cannot always handle those, but we send them to the forums.

Also, unrelated: I am rather surprised no-one posted this yet: https://github.com/dmkaplan2000/nxt_state/blob/master/nxt_state.md

Good read, posted on the nxtcrypto forums here: https://forums.nxtcrypto.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=867

Yes because it reduces utility of Nxt by taking its place for what sounds like it will be many purposes. Anything that nodecoins will do could/should be done using Nxt. Therefore this statement is true.
I know In gonna get flack for this but,  If I were to be a jerk about it, I could say "nodecoin is the lazy, inflationary, d**khead way of solving these issues." (I DO NOT mean to imply that James or anyone working on these issues is lazy or a d**khead. You guys are putting in hard work that everyone ought to respect and appreciate. However there is clearly a fundamental schism on this issue. Many including myself stand on the opposite side from you and I need to push my point that this has much more affect than you realize and should be considered with great care and thought).

Let me ask this: Why was a fee structure to reward nodes with Nxt not implemented instead of usurping Nxt's functions and introducing inflation with nodecoin?

I just can't let this go it bothers me. I am going to reiterate my idea again. Nxts should be the only reward for forging. So if James is going to issue an asset called nodecoin that automatically gets distributed for free to anybody who forges with their client open, then these nodecoins must only
be able to be redeemed for nxt via a program by James funded by donations or committee.

Think of it as airline miles from your credit card. You earn miles or points that are completely worthless except that the card issuer will
redeem a certain amount you accumulate for airline tickets. If these nodecoins are to exist then it must follow a similar procedure and be marketed as such. As I said before nxters must think of nodecoins as "miles" or "points" and solely exist to be converted into nxt which is our precious.

The nxt currency must be King, the center of our universe. Anybody
issuing assets pay nxt fees and should want to be paid in nxt and issue dividends in nxt.

I believe it is this way or simply scrap nodecoin. James is the issuer he simply can choose not to issue them when we're live. I do not believe
anybody else will issue a similar coin because nodecoins are virtually free. Who besides James, who was trying to solve the forging problem, will
issue a coin that gives itself out for doing nothing? Future asset issuances of coins will be ipos and will ask for money for it and therefore must
prove the value of the coin. Nodecoins were not asked for and will be given out for free from day 1.

@wesleyh: when issuing an asset, i have a red exclamation mark next to FEE,but i try to put the mouse over or click everywhere and i cant find any text or advertise.

Imho about nodecoin,i think it would be a huge mistake to make Nxt rely on Nodecoins so much.
Nxt needs to stand for itself first,and then if something can be added,perfect.But not have PoW to make the PoS safe.


Ah there isn't any Smiley I should probably add something, thanks. "Minimum fee is 1000 nxt, be warned!"

Is anything on NXT unit tested? EVER?

Dunno. Unit tests r not a panacea, more likely a modern trend between people who used to code for outsourcing. Good thing for u is that Jean-Luc decides how to test, not me.
I don't use unit tests now. Those are not substitute for functional testing and QA, and I share the view that for new features unit tests are not that useful. I prefer testing the whole system, in conditions as close to production as possible, and this is why I worked on making the test net easy to participate in for everyone.

Would probably need an api for that, availableBalance / effectiveBalance in getAccount assets list. CFB - any comments?
You need to use Account.getUnconfirmedAssetBalance(). Of course I just noticed it is not returned in the http API, sorry. I will add it.

The whole http API needs some critical review and improvement.

critical review and improvement: can you comment on what that means?
Well, just things like the above, I never realized the unconfirmed asset balance was not available in the API. There are also calls that are not efficient, requiring multiple requests first to get some object ids, then to get the objects themselves one by one. Then there are calls that are partially redundant or duplicate, like getBalance, getAccount, getAccountPublicKey. getAccount already returns balance and public key, why do you need the other two? Fine, getting the assets for an account is more expensive and should not be done if not needed, but for getting the balance and public key the work is the same. Looks like those were added one by one on as-needed basis.
