I don't follow either all that much, but Qora has been accused of being a Nxt clone because the feature set is very similar. Does the client work better? With a quick perusal of the forum and the wiki I don't even see a description of how the PoS algorithm works. How do you know it does anything better? Not an attack, just curiosity.
Well firsty NXT as far as im aware doesn't do anything QORA doesn't do, lets take that angle. And add to that angle that NXT is 50 times the price!!
Qora implemented AE into Qora in a few weeks, it took a team 6 months to do it in NXT, just wanted to add that fact.
The asset exchange had a few features that NXT would love to have like being able to trade any coin for any coin. With NXT you have to hold NXT to buy another asset which obviously makes buying an asset a pain in the ass especially if you actually wanted to hold NXT and not have to use it to buy something else. Ok this isnt a gamer changer but this is typical of what has been steadily coming out of the work of ONE GUY!!! Another titbit the AE also can pay dividends, the wallet has voting implemented...I could go on.
But the evidence is clear what Qora can do seems to take a 1/5 of the time NXT with legions of developers months to achieve. Remember how NXT made a big thing about AE and had a countdown and was talking for months about it with teams of developers. Well as I said Qora just wacked it into the QOra code in a few weeks absolutely alone.
Ok so why the fuss over AT, well as much as NXT community hates to admit it, they are a teeny bit jealous that they couldn't get it implemented first, bascially in afew weeks Qora will be able to do what Etherurum boasted they could do with an entire dream team of developers and big investors taking millions in the IPO on that promise. Qora gets it, no fuss in a few weeks. Did I mention Qora is 50th the price of NXT.lol
Its not that NXT is crap its the fact that Qora is making the same functions quicker and simpler and alone and did I mention its 50th of the price.
So yeah anecdotally I would say Qora is ripping past NXT. And don;t start all this clone nonsense anymore, its doing what NXT does and is a completely unrelated coin.
People have got to start asking why am I buying and using NXT when Qora is so cheap and seems more advanced and less messy in its implementation. The NXT team take sooooooo long to do even small things like voting which QOra did as an after thought, wasn't even in the original plan. The guy is a freakin genius. OR the implementation is so neat and his own words 'future proof' the question keeps coming again and again why would people use NXT in the future and not Qora?
I rest my case. I wish Qora was the boasting type cause I recon he would be able to flatten any debate on who has made the better coin, he hinted a few times that he doesn't understand some of the decisions that were made by NXT especially in the area of security. Fact Qora wallets have never been hacked EVER.
I think OS will turn people around and those who love well made stuff will want to be involved. Then to the moon and all that stuff.
*one last fact. Qora said he started the Qora project before NXT came out. The fallacy is whoever does something first is the pioneer and the rest are copying. Thats cool for Bitcoin but the functions common in NXT and Qora are ones that the Bitcoin community has been discussing for years so the question should be who has implemented those fuctions best not who was first. Cause imagine Qora had released before NXT (I guess he could of done prematurely announced at least) then we would be talking about how NXT is somehow copying Qora. But as intelligent people shouldnt we be asking who has made the product better not first. Qora seems the neater base code to work from, time and OS will tell us if that's true.
