Any updates on AE, what are we waiting for? can we set a date?


I am currently writing an AE audit program. It will make sure all asset balances are correct. I think we need to have this running while we have several active tradebots making all sorts of trades, big and small, from many computers.

If after a million trade brute force test, everything still reconciles, then it should be good to go

James

please tell me its not going to be luanched till after the 8th?Huh? i want to get my investment back from heavycoin to put into nxt! please wait lol

Which clients will support AE?

It's important that we show those clients at nxtcountdown.com

All clients support AE.

Ok, then we come to the same dilemma.

Is it an idea to promote Wesleyh's client at the countdown?

That is our moment to spam everyone with a simple client and a countdown. There is no better time to do that.

I don't think we need pooled forging at all.

1. Pool doesn't change ROI in long run.

2. Comminity has strong opinion that fee must be no more than 0.1, so sooner or later ROI will fall in 10 time at least.

3. So small stakeholders will not get anything notable anyway.

4. So forging is not about money. We talk about that many times.

5. It's better to learn people how to setup node and register it on peerexplorer. And learn whales to support sponsoring in peerexplorer.

6. Forging is duty of service providers, so we just need to stand until there are many of it. We can snand with 500 nodes, I think. Nodes which active part of community will run anyway.

So it's better to program something useful and truly innovative.

I put refactoring on hold until the community decides that it's safe for Nxt.


Never liked pooled forging for nxt. If CFB put actual thought into it and doesn't like it then I say no for now at least. I believe there will be

natural incentives to forge as we grow. Worst case we can pool later if the issue becomes clearer.

i was thinking.. could you set up a gateway for krona and for auroracoin for when auroracoin is airdropped.. giving the people of iceland a decentralised way of trading auroracoin.. as far as i know they wont be able to sell it for USD and trade into krona due to the currency laws.. it would be big publicity for nxt.. and at worst you get 330,000 people who find out what nxt is even if they do just cash out and AUR collapses! it could go a very long way to helping the whole project work...!
As long as it is a bitcoind fork, I estimate a new coin can be added faster than you can download the blockchain. Well, maybe for a brand new coin it will be a close race. Just one file needs to be changed with the gateways addresses and public keys and a few other coin specific details.

Then of course, it has to be tested. Maybe somebody can keep a list of all the coins we should support? I cant do this all by myself.
Can somebody be the project manager? There are many parts of this, but you dont need to be technical, just organized and a little management experience. I know a lot of you are lurking and intimidated by the tech talk, but this is a task of keeping track of the things that need to be done and communicating. The more of this I can offload, the more time I will have for coding. Just saying.

James

As one of those lurkers I'd welcome the chance to contribute; so if you're still looking for someone to be project manager, I'd be very happy to get involved. I read the thread several times a day and have got the time. My communication skills and management experience should be ok, but I may have to ask some initial, elementary technical questions in order to fully understand what's required.

Fantastic. If you have been reading the thread, you know what needs to be done. Just jump in and start making things happen Smiley

I would be happy to answer any questions. The post with the blue headline had a good summary.

James


Apologies for the delay in responding.

I've reread your Plan for automated multisig gateway post  - relevant extract below:



'The ONLY function of the gateway is to accept deposit and process withdrawal of an asset. I am only dealing with crypto gateways here, more specifically cryptos with multisig support like BTC.'
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=345619.34740 

and, more recently:


Quote
….a non-profit gateway for all the popular cryptos into NXT AE....



Other than the current stress testing of the the dogeind gateway which other of the areas of work listed in your Plan for automated multisig gateway post have been started and by whom?

I've seen nothing in the thread re this since the following posts were made:

@msin
You are organizational type, yes? Maybe you could manage automated gateway project? I want to add NXTcash to gateway instead of coordinating all the stuff from my post above.

James

Sure, I can help manage if you need me to.  In regards to server operators, what do you think about three separate hosted servers that one person can admin until code is released, assuming we will be on testnet.  Perhaps abctc.  Here is my suggestions for others:

I need web html person to make web interface for gateway - Wesleyh

I also need somebody to write code for the equivalent of blockchain explorer, basically gateway transaction explorer. - Nexern

I also would like to have somebody refactor the code. - Zahlen

Probably the most important, I need to hire Evil Bob.  - Jesse James or CIYAM

Opticalc, would you be interested in running one of the three DAC gateways?

Great, if anyone else in interested in the DAC projects listed by James, please post.

I'm not sure my low level of understanding will enable me to do justice to what the project management involves.

However I'd still happy to contribute what I could, provided I was confident my contribution was going to be effective and not waste other people's time.

Apologies for the length of this post.

Instead of pooled forging, can you port over multisig? That is much more important than pooled forging, since there are alternate solutions for that. Multisig is pretty fundamental.

Why do we need 2 ways to do a multisig?
Redundancy and time to market.

I dont like using AT for multisig because that will cost extra to execute the AT. it also has more moving parts and maybe even a delay for a block waiting for AT. There is room for a simpler built in multisig and a flexible AT based supersig

If the code is there, might as well use it

Personally, I don't like pools. They are counterproductive, they don't tell the message Nxt wants to give (decentralization), and they can be dangerous right now.

Maybe we should revisit the pool-idea in the future, when other things are ready.

I think the concept of pools in Nxt is a non-starter: it doesn't make any sense, except under one scenario.

Pooling coins for Nxt has no impact on ROI. The effect is psychological. You'll get less Nxt more often, but you won't earn more Nxt than you would forging alone.

The only reason it makes sense is if you can't run software all the time, or are frustrated with having to update it every two days to keep from being left on a fork due to software changes and fixes.

People who want pools are people who believe (against all factual data) that pooling gives them additional reward. This is a fallacy and we should not support the belief.

People who want to "set it and forget it" have a valid argument, but IMHO not enough of one to warrant adding "pooled forging" to Nxt's core.

Actually pools will yield even less reward than forging solo since there is bound to be a fee.

I'm torn on this. On one hand, multisig in Nxt's core adds transaction processing overhead that seems contrary to Nxt's agility- and efficiency-focused core. Nxt AT is a much better place for it, but not if the transaction cost is too high. Multisig should be a higher-level function that is "free with the cost of any transaction" (I.e. no or minimal additional fee/cost)

Ultimately, I don't think the Nxt core is the right place for multisig.

Putting it there because "Nxt AT isn't ready yet" would be a mistake.

Current NXT circulation:
1. Buy NXT from initial stakeholder.
2. Register alias / send message / issue asset and pay fee to stakeholder.
3. Goto :1

As I always said, forging was created for stakeholders. You (community) always said that "when we'll have more transactions, fees would be better distributed". False! Forging is not dependent on fee in expected block. The only thing that will change is that stakeholders would get back their sold NXT faster.

Nxt is good platform. It is another P2P software like Bittorent. We need to find another way to prevent spam and get rid of NXT.

I that is correct, I dont really need to know the exact price, but I am curious how to find out what price the trade executed at. If two people put in a bid and ask in the same block, with the bid higher than the ask, what is the executed price and how can I find that out in the blockchain?

Trades have the price.

Isn't it much harder for NXT compared to Bitcoin to be 51%(NXT with 90%+ right?)

Just have multiple pools if I understand it correctly. It gives the little guy with <100k a chance to get something out of forging. Many people want an incentive to forge.

Nxt doesn't have 90% protection yet. TF is not completed.
Ah okay. If anything lets get Nodecoin up and running successfully. Gives people that want to mine/forge something to gain consistently.
