So could some stakeholders put the biggest chunk of bounty in history of mankind out there for atomic cross chain transaction on nxt please? During this time (this will take a while?!) we should have the best community driven gateway possible, which james is currently building.
OK.
3M NXT (up to 5M for additional features) for atomic cross chain transactions.
Conditions:
a) working client for average user;
b) official approve of all three NXT Funding Committees;
c) fully working asset exchange;
d) working transparent forging in the part marked bold:
NB: The only penalty is inability to mine blocks within some period of time. They still can decide not to bother with mining, but their "hashing" power will be distributed to those who do protect the network.
Last two conditions are my conditions to stop holding investment in 50M NXT.

Who is willing to work on atomic cross chain transaction? 3M bounty up to 5M



I would like to work on that.

how can we help? what do you need?

Basically, ideas what the specific goals of CCT are regarding NXT.

Schedule:
0) new thread for this

1) define an API
 - heavily use case dependent
 - you should contribute what you want to achieve with cross-chain trading
 - price negotiations?

2) design questions
 - I fear we need something like a plugin architecture as transactions of different cryptocurrencies can look completely different
 - re-use of current AE infrastructure?
 - re-use of AT infrastructure?

3) implementation and test

5) deploy


And foremost right now: sleep! Till tomorrow.

 smart contracts used by ethereum

Features

ACTUS Contract Calculator
4.1 Principal At Maturity (PAM)

The PAM contract type encompasses many common financial contracts. Most typical representative is the classical government bond. It also covers money market funds, fixed deposits and also all sorts of bullet type loans. Beyond simple fixed rate instruments it accommodates many complex variants such as variable rate instruments and instruments with capitalization.
Principal At Maturity Calculator
4.2 Annuity (ANN)

ANN contract type at its simplest form represents an annuity payment, where principle and interest are paid out over a specified period of time. Common mortgages in several countries follow this pattern. This contract type can represent fixed and variable rate annuities, also including grace period, irregular payments and so on.
Annuity Calculator
4.3 Stock (STK)

A STK contract represents a certain quantity of equity issued by a company.
Stock Calculator
4.4 Future (Futur)

A FUTURE is a standardized contract to buy or sell specified asset at a price agreed upon today with payment occurring at a specified future date. Underlying assets can be Bonds, stocks, commodities or FX rate related instruments. In ACTUS, a FUTUR is represented with a parent-child relationship, with the child being the underlying asset. Closely related to FUTURE is the margining process, which can be modeled in many facets.
Future Calculator
4.5 Swap (SWAP)

A SWAP is a derivative in which counterparties exchange cash flows of one party's financial instrument for those of the other party's financial instrument. In ACTUS, it is represented with a parent-child relationship having two children, which are basic CT’s (such as PAM or ANN). This method of combination of basic CT’s allows ACTUS to represent multiple other variants of swaps, an example being amortizing swaps.
Swap Calculator
4.6 Option (OPTNS)

An OPTION gives the holder the right to buy or sell an underlying asset for a given price (Strike) on or before a specified future date. In ACTUS, it is represented with a parent-child relationship, where the underlying child can be a Bond, stock, commodity or FX rate related instrument. All variants of call/put and American, Bermudan and European options are (or will be) supported in ACTUS.

On my linux NRS  0.8.3 client, the default configuration for nxt.apiServerHost is 127.0.0.1 . But i can connect to the NRS  client from another host on lan.
This is a strange behavior because the configuration file specifies that the API server listens only on the localhost.
Another question:
How does Nextcoin convert 256-bit Curve25519 public keys into account numbers?
I'm unable to find into source code.
Thanks.

I am setting up a test net server that I will be maintaining myself. I will need people to run additional test nodes, so that we have a real test network, not just one or a few servers. Perhaps some of our existing public nodes can be switched to test net instead.


its possible to run production and your test system on same VPS?  if possible, get me a release and ill run it up on 12 VPSs.  Send a good bit of testNXT to 7003836199107817064 and I can split it up to 11 other test accounts I will make, and I will make them forging nodes on test systm.

Probably tomorrow (21.35 here) will be ok again - I just don't want we to rely on him because this is very important.
Unless the switch will come soon (end of week) so there is no point in making a new testnet.

Currently there are 2 guys working on it, one IT (he provides us with the server) and a programmer - the problem is with the programmer, so we need someone competent to talk directly (email, skype) with my IT guy!


sound like something from someone from the infrastructure team, is there someone willing to help here so we can go on with AE?

^[GS]^   ?
chanc3r      ?
ChuckOne    ?
EvilDave     ?
ferment     ?
marcus03    ?
pandaisftw   ?
Secondleo     ?

marcus03 setup testnet for Nxtcash, perhaps he can help us

I can set up a testnet NRS in about 24 hours. If this is in your timeline, please PM me with any requirements that I don't know about.

I will be coming to the marketing committee for some funds for the April BTC conventions in NYC, and maybe these private sector projects as well
LONG ON NXT
did they already respond you from http://www.cryptocurrencyconvention.com/ so you could be a speaker there as we discuessed it few weeks ago? If not, you have only 2 days for buying a ticket for 50%.

I have not yet registered. I asked the group if it was thought that I was suitable as a speaker, but was not given a reply. It really seems this convention is like all these fly by night exchanges popping up, trying to make a quick buck, selling buckets and shovels at the gold rush.

The $200 is for all attendees, not a speaker.   Is it worth the 3724.58688298 NXT for a ticket still?

I live here, so my only additional cost is subway fare which I will gladly cover Wink

well, 4k is not much, as I said. Especially if you could speak there, spend there 2 hours, give some business cards and flyers, make interview with journalists or meet new business partners. Program is really not very cool. I asked Teddy how many people will be there. Now we can see 2k likes on Facebook and 400 Twitter followers. Not bad, especially if you make a video from your presentation, it could be seen by 100.000 people then.

You can use it as training, too Smiley

I am soooooo exited. Just now, I managed to forge a 22 NXT block :O

http://www.mynxt.info/blockexplorer/details.php?action=bk&bk=7649876548675003996

THIS IS SO SICK

Life is good for people with 600K+ NXT
The rich get richer, the poor stay just the same. NXT is just like real life.

Nxt is too difficult to setup.

Yes, unfortunately it is...there are third-party clients that are easier to install, but the default one that most people use and trust is too difficult for a non-technical oriented user to install and run. Creating an installer that at least installs NRS and creates a shortcut to open the NRS URL should be among the top priorities for the project imho.

Nxt Fees are too high. - I know we have discussed this and have plans in the future, but I think at some point we need to have a concrete plan in place that is very visible to new comers to see.

The plan is to allow fractional amounts of NXT's. Once this is done, the fee will almost certainly be lowered.

For me, I'm not concerned about the fee at all, I simply want to participate while not putting my Nxt at risk. I already run a VPS that is managed by opticalcarrier, but if it's not hallmarked, what real benefit is it providing?

You are forging even if you are not running a hallmarked node.

Also, in relation to this, if I were a new user and followed the directions provided by the wiki to begin forging, they would have no success, atleast with Chrome on Win 7

What's the issue with Chrome on Windows 7?


Second bolded question. Is it really any known problem with Chrome on Win7?

No, I think you are misunderstanding my statement. My statement was just to highlight what I was using when I followed the directions on the wiki. The statement is more or less regarding the wiki directions and I only stated the OS and Browser just in case there was a known issue I was unaware of. The highlighted wiki article needs to be updated to reflect the latest updates to the NRS as a new user will have issues if they follow the directions ver betam
