LOL 1 bitcoin = 1000 NXT ?

It's currently 5000 NXT for 0.45 BTC on exchange.

NXT mid-sale ends tomorrow at 11am Eastern, to stop the flooding of too many new users wishing to get NXT in exchange for bitcoin.

Support. Very optimistic about the future of the NXT, this is a great coin!

"One of the reasons Nxt is groundbreaking is because it gives the economy back to the people and re-establishes them as their own sovereigns over their destiny.  An economy is an expression of a political ideology.  Do not mistake us as just another cryptocurrency.  We are a movement."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A NXT mid-sale is starting, we acknowledge the unfair IPO/pre-sale that allowed a small percentage of NXT users to accumulate vast amounts of NXT coins. SO, we are having another Mid-Sale, 1 bitcoin will reward you with 1,000 NXT accordingly. 1 litecoin with 300 NXT accordingly.

Nxt :: descendant of Bitcoin

Nxt uses brand new software.  It’s not a fork of Bitcoin's source code.

Nxt is the first 100% Proof-of-Stake (PoS) currency.  Coins are earned solely by charging transaction fees.  Unlike other currencies with PoS mining, Nxt's PoS mining does not cause monetary inflation.  The total amount of Nxt in circulation is 1 billion.  Nxt is resistant to +90% attacks via its transparent mining algorithm.

Nxt improves different features of Bitcoin, removes some disadvantages (e.g. bloated blockchain) and resolves a big environmental issue.  Time between blocks is one minute.  This increases the rate of orphaned blocks, but makes it more convenient for the users.

Nxt doesn’t use so-called “scripts” aka predicates.  This simplifies and accelerates transaction processing.  Advanced features like multisig will be created on top of the core as 3rd party services.

Nxt is routable through Tor and I2P anonymous networks.

Nxt supports the following features:

- Decentralized Alias System / DNS - Complete
     Register names and assign them to URIs.  URIs can be anything from web addresses to Nxt account numbers.  These aliases will be tradeable in the near future.
- Basic DDoS Protection - Complete
- Decentralized Asset Exchange / Colored Coins - Done, but not yet implemented.
     This allows gateways to issue assets on the Nxt network.  These assets can include cryptocurrencies (BTC, LTC, etc), fiat currencies (USD, EUR, RMB, etc), stocks and other assets. - Discussion Thread
- Transparent Mining - Complete
     Transactions are encrypted.  Only PoS block generator can decrypt transactions.
- Arbitrary Messaging - Complete
- Instant Transactions - In progress
     One-thousand transactions per second design target
- Decentralized Marketplace / Auction - In progress
     Buy or sell goods/services in a distributed manner.  All listings are broadcast to all nodes on the network in P2P fashion.
- Distributed Storage - In progress
- Multi-signatures - In progress
- Blockchain Shrinking - In progress
- Two-phase Payments - In progress
     Software supported escrow transactions
- Voting System - In progress
- Reputation System - Will be implemented after Voting System
     Account trust rating system.  Check if sellers on the distributed exchange have a good history, if stock issuers pay dividends and if gateways honor their asset redemptions.
- Automated Transactions - In progress
     Turing complete based scripts - Development Thread
- Decentralized Mixing Service - In progress
     NXTcash / Zerocoin Implementation - Development Thread
- Social Credit System - Concept not ready
     Accounts can trust other accounts for assets issued on the asset exchange with on-the-fly debt transference.
- Distributed Computing - Concept not ready
- Smart Contracts - Concept not ready
- Hardware Wallets - Conceptual Stage - Java smart card developers please contact core dev team members
- Advanced DDoS Protection: Project Kharon - Conceptual Stage - Neural net programmers please contact core dev team members

Nxt Development

We invite skilled Java programmers to join NXT core development team. You’ll get access to complete NXT source code. We need 2-3 developers now. If you are interested, please PM user Come-from-Beyond on bitcointalk.org with your e-mail address and your Java experience (very short description). We’ll check your forum posts to make sure that you’re not a troll and contact you via e-mail. If you don’t get my reply by the 10th of January then wait for the next round when we ask for more participants.

Please Run a Nxt Node

If you can run a Nxt node, it will help us stabilize and secure the network.  If you have invested in Nxt, it is beneficial to you to run a VPS to help to secure the Nxt network.  Hallmarking your node helps the network, but is not necessary.

BE SURE TO CHECK THE SHA256 HASH OF YOUR DOWNLOAD!

If you're running GNU/Linux, the program sha256sum is standard on most versions of the OS.  Use the sha256sum command:
'sha256sum PATH_TO_NXT_DOWNLOAD'

If you're running OS X, a SHA-256 can be calculated using the openssl command in an open terminal (the terminal is located in /Applications/Utilities).
'openssl sha256 PATH_TO_NXT_DOWNLOAD'

If you're running Windows, use an online calculator to calculate the sha256 hash.  Upload the Nxt.zip file you downloaded, when the website asks for a file.

Nxt Clients
Nxt clients are GUI programs that interface with the NRS server.  Eventually, the web client will be removed from the NRS, and you will have to use a separate client.

Security Tips

- Do NOT use the passphrase for your Nxt account on a VPS client.  Only use your Nxt passphrase on a local Nxt client.  Even if you connect to your VPS securely via SSH, you are still not safe because all VPSs have backdoors.
- 7874 (tcp) is used for P2P communication, the http web client and API commands.  This is the only port that needs to be open to run Nxt.
- 7875 (tcp) is used for the https web client.
