Question for discussion:
Should exchanges be allowed to harvest?
You can't stop anyone from harvesting. Each account makes it's own decision From what i know from some poloniex mods, their contract prohibits harvesting What is a "contract" and what does "poloniex" has to do with my answer? You can't stop anyone from harvesting and you can't stop any exchange from adding nem.

What if I have a smartphone app that has a secretphrase encrypted with the data in a qr code kept somewhere else, then I need to scan that qr code to decrypt the secretphrase, the app signs the transaction bytes with it and then discards the secretphrase and qr code data.
This isn't true 2FA. In 2FA the code is generated dynamically, so it changes every 30 second and can't be reused. What you describe here is static password in the phone that you are scanning instead of typing. That isn't 2FA Nxt client never saves the password anyway, so if you don't like typing that password, you can write an app that scans it instead. Same thing. This isn't 2FA

your password is the formula. you never type the formula. you calculate it in your head and you just type it out. even if there was a key logger they wouldnt be able to steal the code since its always changing. no one will know ur formula.
This doesn't make any sense. The client (software) also have to know the same formula -- the one that is in your head -- otherwise how does the software check if your number is correct? 2FA doesn't work with decentralized system. It works when there are two parties, one is a server, and the second one is your phone, both have the same secret and can verify the code generated by the same shared secret. What you are saying makes no sense, as you and the software you are using must have the same formula on the same machine. That doesn't add any security.

Not sure what he meant by that. There's anecdotal evidence of many people who were around back then and at the time I wasn't able to find Ghosthouse on the stakeholder list. Also a lot of people, back then, had copies of the stakeholder list that went back months too. I'll wait for Eadeqa to provide a link proving his assertion.
He did issue a stake to himself (he posted it in the forum that he wants a stake with that sock puppet, and issued it to himself). This was verified back then. He immediately deleted that name from the official Google doc list after he was caught., He also deleted his post from the forum. However, I was around back then, and I ASKED people to check the archive. I believe it was comefromabove who posted proof from forum archive that he issued the stake and later deleted the post after he was caught, This should be all in my posting history.

all nemstakes were transferred to another member of the team.. notice the issuing accounts last transaction was sending bulk nemstakes to another address which the team controlled in order to take over the distribution and redemption of nemstake.
I know all nemstakes was transferred but before that happened UP was the one sending out nemstakes. Even UP's sockpuppet that was caught had a nemstake. had the sock been claimed on AE? He issued a nemstake on AE to his sock that was caught trolling simcoin. , Of course he wasn't going to use that one anymore as he got caught with that ID. The point is that we really don't have any proof one way or another. However, I am pretty certain he issued more nemstakes on AE to himself.

I think Satoshi is interesting as the inventor of the blockchain and is alleged to own a million Bitcoins and thus could kill this 'bitcoin experiment' overnight.
He mined those coins as there was no one else around at that time. They were not premined. 1 million BTC will not kill bitcoin. They might temporarily bring down prices, but the coins will be gobbled out by buyers really quickly. BCnext, if you ignore the obvious forgery "BCnext's plan" (cult stuff like that is disturbing), shipped out a minimally developed project and cashed out his stake at the first opportunity and was never seen from again. There is no proof if BCnext cashed anything or if he still around with other names. You are a liar. Even though the code was immature, BCnext basic idea was sound and that's what Nem and all others (i.e Node) copied. BCnext was founder of crypto 2.0 UtopianFuture lost his organization stake and it wasn't just Patmast3r who did the sock analyses, You are the same clown who was bragging for months how you guys did analysis that Nxt didn't, but as it turned out you missed out a guy with 200 accounts and many other (300+) sock puppets. I am pretty sure you still haven't caught many, and many others got away with it on AE which was initially issued by UtopianFuture. he admitted to creating few socks for advertising
His admission only came after he was caught. Big difference. He probably would have gotten away with it he wasn't trolling Simcoin with sock puppets. I am pretty sure he is still around as he he was the one issuing AE Nemstakes.

maybe make a 2fa thats somehow correlates to the block height since it changes. and with the block height u generate a 2fa code that only u remeber. say for example a math formula. ex. block height is 1000 . now u decide enter ur own 2fa formula which is: (blockheight * 2) + 5
2fa code is 2005
does this make sense?
No, it doesn't make sense. This is nonsense. Who decides if your formula is correct and lets you login? Where is the formula saved? Why can't the hacker use the same formula?

He's playing his games. Best to ignore this kind of thing unless you're up for it.
If you release this month after Ethereum then NEM launch will be unnoticed. Taking into account that NEM team wants NEM to succeed I safely assumed that only a week left. Ethereum isn't launching this month. It's several months away. https://blog.ethereum.org/2015/03/03/ethereum-launch-process/

This could be the big launch of 2015.
i havnt seen anything launching any time soon that has the same potential so it could be the only big launch of 2015.. ethereum will launch, but i have heard they are FAR from ready so that could turn out to be a flop.. who knows.. actually, i heard they are supposed to launch on the 20th, anyone know if this is true? They have a full blog on release process https://blog.ethereum.org/2015/03/03/ethereum-launch-process/It's in various steps but supposedly, according to the blog, people can mine ether at 10% of the normal issuance rate right now, though this period is only for techies The release for non techie might be several months away

A few people asked but I'm not sure there was ever an answer about why the original 75%-25% figure is not being upheld?
Yes, total BS. It's actually 65% (for development) and 45% for stakeholders. That's the distribution

There are 1400 accounts that are not socks that are probably pretty happy that more socks got kicked out. Then there are a few people in here screaming that we shouldn't kick out socks.
This isn't true, as each person was allowed to register two accounts, so the number of unique stakeholders drops. Also, many sock puppet did slip through when they were given AE stakes. I think the real number of unique users is less than 500
|
|
|
Lets face the fact, less than 1400 stakes (out of 4000) would go to stakeholder, That means more than 65% coins will be reserved for "development". That's ridiculously high percentage. How about cutting that in half by releasing less coins in genesis block? Drop that percentage to 35%
|
|
|
No, I'm afraid that's incorrect.
Very good, I'll wait for the analysis publication then. unless there is a good reason not to, I agree with releasing the analysis. +1 I do think that it is a good move to dump these sockpupets, i just hope no innocent people get caught up in it, as others have mentioned here, that they bought stakes for other family members etc. You were not supposed to get more than 2 stakes even for other family members and friends. The rule was only one stake for you, and only one more for someone else.

Are the 4000 stakes being reduced inline with the number of socks taken out? Or do the devs/marketing/bounties etc. just keep more of the stakes (2433.5/4000)?
Just me being ignored then The latter. And you can believe that everyone involved hates the fuck out of that. wait a minute, your saying that the developers will be holding 60% of total NEM? The solution is to reduce the number of coins. Give 25% to developers, hold 5% for people who might claim later, and 1 million each for all legit users.

I'm helping them to claim it. They are non techies. I'm glad I used their PC's so I can probably prove that they are not puppets. IF they are on the list ofcourse. Very curious. Just seems silly to claim stakes for the non-techies, people that can't simply claim a stake on BTT certainly won't be able to use the client. Yes, that's a pure nonsense excuse to claim more stakes -- of I am doing it for my non-techie buddies.

After sending 98 NXT to my account I tried to update the account with a name, however the system would not accept my passphrase as it turns out somehow I was using the wrong account. I apparently was logged into this account first: NXT-UKHZ-LNEB-2F3K-3ELSH and sent funds there. After I logged out, I was logged back into this account: NXT-N74K-UZXT-RWU2-C6KSX (no money)
Do I have two accounts on my computer, did I somehow send fund to my testnet wallet? What could have happened? Is there a way that I could change my Pass Phrase?
What wallet are yo uusing? Your password is your nxt account. Use the same password, and you will login to the same account.

What's with Ora asset? Are they needed to be swapped with something else?

Don't trust just words , but what he did to apex was proof it can be done.
WTF apex has to do with Nxt? After Apex attack, nxt users asked him to demonstrate the attack on Nxt. He has not yet demonstrated the attack, not even on testnet, that has fewer nodes. It's been a month.
