FAQ


Advanced: Hallmarks

What is a hallmark?
Simply put, a hallmark is a digital signature that "certifies" that a node, running on a specific IP address, belongs to an account. A hallmark helps the network put trust into specific Nxt nodes, relying on them more than other nodes for accurate information on blocks and transactions. Anyone can decode a node's hallmark to verify its authenticity and ownership. If you run multiple nodes, a hallmark also allows you to set a relative "weight" for each node, so that the network can allocate more traffic to nodes that have more resources.
Should I create a hallmark for myself?
If you are a casual user of Nxt, running the software on a home computer that is not always on or publicly accessible on the Internet, you probably do not need to generate a hallmark. If you are operating a public Nxt node (or multiple nodes!) and have a non-trivial balance of Nxt, however, hallmarking is strongly recommended.
How do I create a hallmark?
See this How-To page for instructions.
How do I verify/check a hallmark?
Go to your Nxt software's admin page (https://127.0.0.1:7875/admin.html or https://localhost:7875/admin.html) and locate the "verify hallmark" section. Enter any node's hallmark text in the entry field and click submit. The server will return a JSON object that will tell you the following things associated with the hallmark:
Its IP address
The date it was created
The account that owns it
Whether or not the hallmark is valid
What is hallmark weight and how is it used?
The "weight" parameter for a hallmark is best-used when you are running more than one public node. You can generate many hallmarks tied to the same account, and the "weight" parameter is used to determine what portion of the account's balance should be credited to each node. Nodes with higher balances are more "trusted". The portion of the balance used to calculate weight is governed by the formula (weight/Sum_of_all_weights). For example, if you have three hallmarked nodes and set the weight parameter for each node to 100, the nodes will be weighted equally. If you have three hallmarked nodes and set the weights to 100, 200, and 300, the nodes will be weighted at (100/600), (200/600), and (300/600).
If my account balance changes, do I need to regenerate my hallmark?
No.

I have an active VPS with Hallmark pointing to my account
Should I forge with this account using the IP of the public node?

I have read that this is not safe.

It's not safe, don't do it.

Can I forge with this account with my private node and VPS with Hallmark continuous working well?

Yes.

Note:  its not unsafe because of the hallmarking; its just unsafe to forge from a VPS, as the VPS provider has access to view what all is going on with their VPSs; they could determine your NXT account passphrase if they really want to

PUSH!

Thank you very much.

Would be interesting to indicate much clearer in the wiki.

It's not safe, don't do it.


Yes.

OK, clear. Good that this was discussed a bit more, so we don't have misunderstandings.

I have promised a budget of 50K and that NXTcommunityfund will make up for any shortfall if we dont have 50K

Just 5K to allwelder for now.
When we have signoff on the website plugins, 25K from NXTcommunityfund and Ola will add 25K, but we need to get deliverables before any bounty is paid

James

To keep things straight, I prefer payment on delivery.
James pledged 50,000 Nxt, Ola has promised to add 25,000 Nxt.
So once we have a set of plugins, you should pay.
I still have to clear this completely with my developer, but if he needs something upfront, I will ask this from James, with a very clear reason why and how.

Does that sound fair and transparent?

I still have 50 k TestNxt

Your word is good enough for me

James

This is so dense I'm trying to parse my role in it.  So far I think I should be on standby to pay out either 25K or 50K NXT from NXTcommunityfund once a WP payment plugin for NXT is delivered.  Is that right?  Or am I supposed to disburse something up front now besides 5K NXT to allwelder?

Lol. all these wikis, thanks!

Also will be removed, only info available is at thenxtwiki.org (programmers/api)

My developer became so enthousiastic that he postponed redecorating his house which was supposed to take till the end of the month  
Hope he can sell this to his wife

We also have someone who is a professional hostingprovider involved who will run the first version of a server that can be used.
If I get my way (and seeing as I am the contact for the donations, I will, probably ) software for running your own server will be included so merchants can choose whether to run their own server or use one that is run by someone else. These dedicated servers would be able to monetise this.

WP is starting point, because I want as much people to be able to adopt it soon. After that should come the big CMS platforms like Drupal and Joomla and the ecommerce platforms like Prestashop, Magento, Zencart and osCommerce.

selling 20K NXT,  will accept BTC/LTC , and fiat to skrill (moneybookers) or okpay. @highest market price -5% discount , lease PM

Thanks. And what about getInitialData? And where can i find more info on API plans/roadmap.

Interface lags. Use F5.
