Topic: NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information - page 438. (Read 2761642 times)

Gents,

Someone just stole money from a Twitter user;

This is what he is saying;

"2 days ago i set it up and withdrew my dgex NXT into my account number 2541298766073278713.

But today i open my client but i cannot access my old account, but instead directed to 18170715140588846266. Please help!"

I looked a bit in the blockchain explorer. I see that account 10715382765594435905 has stole the money.

What can we do for the victim? He is asking me to help.

does any one have a link to the mastercoin exchange and wmasthere to get free/test mastercoins,  i just want to compare it to nxt.. if the nxt asset exchange is far better then the mastercoin one i wouldnt be too worried about them gettin theirs out first...

Almost all VPS nodes in hands of two people

Agreed - and I don't think anyone is actually going to "convince" the anonymous founders to ever "give up their hoards" as IMO their goal wasn't to "get rich" at all.

the robots do it constantly, all Nxt network aswell as Bitcoin's is under constant attack of the guys who own billions of accounts with known passwords/private keys. Their scripts are watching them and they automatically transfer all infoming transfers to their accounts

one of them is here: http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=3000&acc=1413811113623034318

this acc is "owned" by 53 people who were stealing from it: http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=3000&acc=3791936988034107349

These kind of attacks are scripted. You take a large list of well-known, common passwords, calculate the NXT account numbers for these and then simply constantly look for these account numbers in the new transactions in the blockchains. This should actually take 1 or 2 seconds, not 54.

How does that make any sense?There is no way you get redirected to a different account with the same passphrase.And the money moved from that secondary account? I find it so impossible that id say it is someone trolling.

here they are

This is hard to belief because it's only 54 secounds betwen the input and out put. no one can check and steal that fast except the thieft know the password and that will be a huge transaction to that account.

Sorry to say, but it's a lie in my opinion...

Yes, will add this later on.

I've got a lot of catching up to do in this thread, also.  For now, I will say a few things off the top of my head.  

First, we have got to pay more attention to NXT as a 1st generation coin, and call it a coin, without "quotation marks" or apologies.  We need vendors to accept it and people to want it.  NXT cannot be mined and the ability to forge it requires one to buy it on an exchange first.  We have to give people a reason to buy NXT.  That reason cannot be as a stake to forge more NXT because without exception newcomers are dramatically disappointed when they figure out the true numbers that underlie NXT forging. Doge has a fun factor.  NXT has zero fun factor.  It is a frustrating experience all the way thru - getting a client set up and running, dealing with a super long password or losing all your NXT if you don't, realizing you're not going to make anything of true value by forging with small stake quantities, asking yourself what can you do with this coin you just bought....  Repeat:  NXT is frustrating, Doge is fun.  WE MUST LEARN FROM DOGE AND BE FUN.

Second, we have got to identify just what is 2nd generation about this coin that we really truly are going to support.  Mixing/Zerocash anonymity?  Peer to peer AE?  Multisig gateways to other coins?  Transparent forging TF to get high transaction speed?  Multiple blockchains?  Pruning the main blockchain?  BCNext's latest out-of-left-field proposal for instant transactions based on some kind of multiple account?  Jesus, even the guy with the secret plan is proposing new ideas before completely revealing his old ideas.  This gives me a headache and a stomach ache at the same time.  

TF and 1000TPS is what sold me on this coin and is the ONLY feature we have that is above and beyond all Bitcoin clones and even Etherium on the horizon.  I get that 1000TPS would take dev work, but I thought TF was a done deal.  Now it's not?

Third, we have got to pull together as a team and FOCUS.  FOCUS.  FOCUS.  Maybe the funding committees are the start of this.  I hope so.   I would go so far to say that there needs to be yet another committee election, for a leadership committee, one with no money or unspent NXT behind it at all, just the raw power to say "NXT IS GOING TO DO THIS."  and whose members then can stand up on a stage, virtual or real, in front of people and tell them that NXT is on a course to SOMEWHERE.

Maybe I'm just in dictator withdrawal from pushing the election over the goal line.   Maybe sleep will help.  G'nite.

 

Ok, here's the current NXT distribution as of today.



As you can see, it's pretty horrible. The whales rule almost 85% of the whole coin, and I guess most of them are the initial investors.

Excluding the ~85% of the total NXT the whales have, here's the distribution of the remaining 15%:

Is there any way to display also the forging transactions like in NRS?

You might want to consider using the "Ignore" for that particular forum member if their posts are annoying you.

I dont know if this is relevant...but there is someone who is stealing nxtcoins from "bad-protected" accounts.

I've just created an account with the pass: "mtvraps" to check and play. I made the nxtra.org faucet and they sent me 2nxt to this account "14345877598619007537". One minute after, someone sent these 2nxtcoins to other account (of course it was not me). The account was: "1413811113623034318".  I suppose there is a bot checking all the possible weak passwords...

It could be funny but......TAKE CARE!

We will get rid of this hacking blahblah as soon as Wesleyh's GUI with Password Generator is implemented in our NRS and all our precious nxt sites promote this client.

Wesleyh, do your best!
