Then please look at his continual use of *binary floating point*.
wtf he still uses floating point? 
If I did *criticize his code* then here is what he would do:
"I quit".
Then the "fan base" will say:
"James, we need you"
and he will come back without changing a line of code.

Give it a try, make it public, and we play referees 
He has his "James is a machine" fan club already - I am not going to even try and *compete with that*.
I get a "Method not found" error for "getrawtransaction"
Since I am using rawtransactions throughout, if PPC supports multisig in a different way, I will need to do some custom code for it to support it and forks of it, unless it is a simple typo?
edit: http://www.reddit.com/r/peercoin/comments/1uh7mu/multisig/ confirms no multisig with peercoin yet

Forget PPC for now. Check out CGB https://github.com/cryptogenicbonds/CGB/blob/master/src/bitcoinrpc.cpp#L258
Code:
{ "getrawtransaction", &getrawtransaction, false, false },
and https://github.com/cryptogenicbonds/CGB/blob/master/src/rpcrawtransaction.cpp
getrawtransaction is there it seems. Nice.

Bump, can anyone help James with a code review? DAC is going to help differentiate our AE from others and we need to make this a priority.
Unfortunately I can't help as I know that "any criticism" that I make of James' code will be taken as a "personal attack".
I hope it is *possible* to find someone he *will accept* criticism from but I wouldn't be "overly optimistic" about that.

I am getting close to release candidate for multigateway
I would like somebody that is fluent in C and familiar with bitcoind to do a code review

Yeah, sucks. Donate to the development fund and live happy ever after.
All those 50 million nxt aren't worth crap without continuous development and marketing guys.
Amazing to see how Nxt is progressing! Good job every one that is responsible for the success!
I do have a question about the decentralized exchange. As the day draws closer that its getting released, its time to learn the exact details how it works.
As a big fan of Nxt and of CryptogenicBullion ( CGB), I am highly interested to get CGB to be one of the first assets trading on the Nxt system
Is there any documentation available on how to create and maintain an asset, or how the whole process works?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Then there would be a seamless way of depositing and withdrawing CGB into NXT AE and back out to CGB wallets
The deposited CGB would be kept in multisig accts that no single server can unlock, all three need to reach consensus on all withdraws and all balances are publicly viewable so there is no guessing as to the solvency.
James
Did a quick look-see and it appears to be a fork of Peercoin. Also, from https://github.com/cryptogenicbonds/CGB/blob/master/src/script.h
Quote
enum txnouttype
{
TX_NONSTANDARD,
// 'standard' transaction types:
TX_PUBKEY,
TX_PUBKEYHASH,
TX_SCRIPTHASH,
TX_MULTISIG,
};
{
TX_NONSTANDARD,
// 'standard' transaction types:
TX_PUBKEY,
TX_PUBKEYHASH,
TX_SCRIPTHASH,
TX_MULTISIG,
};
That would be awesome James! And as xyzzyx already pointed out, CGB is a fork of Peercoin (though with some exceptional features aimed at investors
) and to my knowledge supports multisig.If you could add it to your multigateway, that would be marvelous! In case you need any tech info/support, you can PM "Artiface" the lead coder or just drop in on the official CGB thread here .
Is there already any ETA when your gateway will be ready to use?
Once CGB is exchangeable on the gateway, I would be more then happy to make a donation to show my appreciation
https://nxtforum.org/multigateway-(third-party)/multigateway-beta-test-signup/ is the signup for beta testers
https://nxtforum.org/multigateway-(third-party)/multigateway-status-reports/ is where I post regular status updates
James
Awesome, so decentralized trading isn't to far off.
Will the beta be conducted on the test net or will it already be running on the live net?
P.s Are you the James that was on the conference in Texas?

Ah. Yes, getrawtransaction isn't yet supported in Peercoin.
https://people.xiph.org/~greg/escrowexample.txt
Peercoin has addmultisigaddress, at least:
https://github.com/ppcoin/ppcoin/blob/master/src/bitcoinrpc.cpp#L1100
Edit: see my next post below on getrawtransaction in CGB.
Think of user-friendliness and not nerd standard.
Yes, some people have never seen bat file.
Also, for less experienced windows users, they would be more familiar with an "installer" that creates a folder, unpack files to it, and creates a shortcut to executable (either bat or exe) on desktop that they can click.
By the way, wesleh, have you looked at creating Windows 8 app version that can be downloaded from Windows 8 store? That version would be just the client with no NRS server.
Haven't looked at it, but will do
Strange. I had some problems issuing multisig commands to peercoin. I guess I should try again
Peercoin seems to support it, https://github.com/ppcoin/ppcoin/blob/master/src/script.cpp#L1411 :
Code:
bool IsStandard(const CScript& scriptPubKey)
{
vectorvSolutions;
txnouttype whichType;
if (!Solver(scriptPubKey, whichType, vSolutions))
return false;
if (whichType == TX_MULTISIG)
{
unsigned char m = vSolutions.front()[0];
unsigned char n = vSolutions.back()[0];
// Support up to x-of-3 multisig txns as standard
if (n < 1 || n > 3)
return false;
if (m < 1 || m > n)
return false;
}
return whichType != TX_NONSTANDARD;
}
But I'm not really too familiar with bitcoin code. I may have overlooked something.

Ouch, thats not too good news...
I wrote a PM to the lead coder of CryptogenicBullion, asking him for clarification.
Thanks for your afforts!

Meni Rosenfeld (the Hebrew BTT thread moderator), argued that Vitalik had managed to break Nxt
by increasing his weight as result of allocating more computing power.
by increasing his weight as result of allocating more computing power.
It seems to me that Vitalik found the trap left for clones. U indeed can break a clone before block 30'000.
Just for fun...
After inquiry he claims that an older version of Nxt included the following:
sha256(prevhash + timestamp + signature) < 2^256 * balance / diff
Instead of:
sha256(prevhash + timestamp + address) < 2^256 * balance / diff
And by creating comparable signatures Vitalik has managed to increase his "power"
Then, he argues, that we changed it to something else thus it became irrelevant,
and that's why Vitalik didn't wrote about it publicly.
Does anyone knows something about that?
N.B. I tried to look at the code from the initial public release couldn't find it.
It means I was right, he had found the trap left for copycats.

You can test it out and learn how to use it using wesleyh's web client at:
http://nxtra.org/nxt-client/
See also:
https://nxtforum.org/alternative-clients/(web-client)-nxt-wallet-with-asset-exchange/
You'll want to make a new account on the testnet. Don't use any real accounts on the testnet as there are security concerns in doing so.
Once you set up your new testnet account, post your testnet address here requesting some testNXT to fund your account.
Hey thanks mate! Just opened an account, and WOW the client looks so cool
Here is my test-net account, would appreciate if any one can send me some test-net Nxt so I can test the asset exchange and the creation of assets: 8407639810100697300
uh, this nxt-client looks awesome! I'm kinda new with nxt even though I bought some long ago on dgex. I want to get more nxtcoins through the proof of stake so I installed the Nxt 0.0.12 Web Setup.exe client, but somehow can't find out how to transfer coins to it. Then I found this thread. is this nxtra.org nxt-client also a working wallet where I can transfer the actual coins I have to it?
thanks a bunch!
thanks. but I have nxt on the dgex exchange which is not so secure, what clients are available other than nxtra.org? I couldn't figure out nxt 0.8.12 client how to transfer funds to it. what would you advice me to do? use nxtra.org is best option?
Code:
[2014-04-01 03:16:28.308] DEBUG: Account 4747512364439223888 generated block 883316585799598769
...
You better spend some of your good fortunes on securing nxt! This is the kind of things that can be prevented with enough bounties around, we need your help too, we are really lucky so far.. and you are the luckiest.
Even smaller bounties for smaller things, like slogans, marketing, creating activities..etc or something like bug hunting competitions. Smaller but more bounties can create a even stronger community.
