Interesting idea but bitcoin has wealth concentrated at the top don't you this kind of scheme will only benefit the richest?

Yeah, I was wondering about that too. Wouldn't it just duplicate one of the main faults of bitcoin? That is, a lot of coins owned by a very small percentage of people?

Yeah what about the exchanges! Getting free æthereum at everyones expense?

    and lets see.........
                                    whats  coming out soon ? .....Catapult , Mijin results coming in ,  mobile apps coming to completion , Apostille , Zaif perhaps adding us  , Dragonfly  and Crypto Apex hopefully not too far in the future.........

                    yup.......   things are happening ..     Smiley

NEM continues to march on.  Next leg up should be good.  Placing in the Top 5 coins is just around the corner! 

At #8 now, just another $10M to top DOGE  Grin

if this is translated correctly looks like mijin has their first paid client Smiley

https://twitter.com/TakaoAsayama/status/718082899954630658


i really hope that means a domestic bank will be using mijin and paying for it.  Shocked

2Billion tx's @ zaif? we really need to get on there..
When we get added to zaif, thats when the rest of the world will finally take notice of NEM! Grin

Meantime, keep buying while its still cheap!

When the community are still not able to increase the block size to 2MB or larger and transactions are taking too long, this tells you something is seriously wrong!
1006  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best Altcoin to invest in for 2016 and WHY on: April 07, 2016, 09:35:31 PM
So far, the Ethereum is the most promising coin to invest in 2016. It will be developed further by the community.
ETH is done and many investors cashout but i suggest lisk to invest in coming 2 month because it create more hype than you could imagine , also DGB , RAD and usual Doge at the moment
Thanks

What is all the hype around LISK anyway?

Its just rebranded crypti.
1007  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: NEM (XEM) Official Thread - 100% New Code - Easy To Use APIs on: April 07, 2016, 09:34:54 PM

But what we really need is some big deals.  IBM, R3, and Ethereum all have a lot more resources, so we need all the help we can get.  


I absolutly agree with you for this point. But we should not give up rights for cooperating with such big companies like Microsoft and IBM. I saw that there was a poll on Qora, because getting on the Azure platform restricts the future use of the open source code. This must be a no-go for every coin project.

Thats true.

However if we get independent advice from some decent lawyers who can make some head or tail on the vague agreement, it may be of benefit to us.

Azure is looking more important, R3 consortium of banks will only look at Azure-afflitated coins. 



Which is stupid considering the amount of shitcoins on Azure... Tongue

Can I set up a local node when I buy a Raspberry Pi?

Depends on the exact model but i think some people are running nodes on a Pi yes.

I Hope my Pine64 can do it!
1010  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best Altcoin to invest in for 2016 and WHY on: March 31, 2016, 10:35:50 PM
Ethereum hands down.

Hi Guys,

I activated Delegated Harvesting back in April 2015.
I went to NodeExplorer and chose a Node and put the IP address in settings like it says on the Youtube video.
NIS is Synchronized. Latest version of NEM.

But when I click at Start Delegated Harvesting I get this error;

ERROR 306
NIS: UNEXPECTED ERROR

What am I doing wrong?
I have the same thing happen at times.
Usually the node can be at fault. Try switching to boot local node and then switch back to another node IP address.
1013  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: NEM (XEM) Official Thread - 100% New Code - Easy To Use APIs on: March 31, 2016, 05:32:15 AM
I agree.
We still have to ask ourselves if we really need it or not?
does anyone know if BTC has partnered with Asure or not? It remains unclear to me.
Anyway, it did not make ETH rise, so i doubt it will affect our price.

We need Azure, but we cannot give away rights.
It's a problem we now faced with.

Azure says "we do support Bitcoin."
This is also ambiguous expression as in their contribution liscence agreement.
http://bravenewcoin.com/news/microsoft-now-offering-several-blockchains-as-a-service-at-azure/
(BTC has no reason to join in Azure.
BTC itself is much more than Azure and doesn't like centralization.
BTC's joining in Azure is only a Azure's unattainable ideal.)

The effect of joining in Azure is fair competition with other blockchains on Azure by equal opportunity to exposure to many users.
Out of Azure means competition in adverse condition.
Instant effect of price rise is secondary.

I still dont know what the purpose of Azure is?
Is it supposed to make trading across different blockchains easier or something?

From what i gather its basically a distributed computing model which means that if you are running an Azure node, you are helping compute parts of any software running, not limited to cryptocurrencies?
The fact that they are basically letting almost every shitcoin join says alot.

It doesn't mean Microsoft would own NEM. It just doesn't guys, so you can stop posting all the Microsoft fine print. 

Then why do you supposed a mega corporation has interest in an open source project that is crowdfunded and could very well be a huge competitor in the future?

Don't forget how they have been brought up on claims of becoming a monopoly and buying out early start ups before.

Don't forget how Windows 10 is free but on the cost of sending your information back to central servers for who knows what.

Ok, so you're guessing.

So their plot is to steal all the altcoins?

No

I don't think it is too far off to have the thought that Microsoft is attempting to grab up altcoins or see the code or whatever else.  Why has Microsoft been so quiet about bitcoin forever and are now super supportive of alts, some of them are even crap.  At first it sounded good but now that they are adding everyone that applies it is speculative what their intentions are.   

At the end of the day these big companies realize that bitcoin / blockchain / alts were created by someone other than themselves and they are in a scrambling phase to see how they can get a piece.  Good luck getting a piece of decentralization.

I totally feel the same.
I simply cant trust Microsoft anymore.
What is the main benefit if we jump on Azure anyway?
Alot of these projects by M$ usually end up a total fail anyway.
1016  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: NEM (XEM) Official Thread - 100% New Code - Easy To Use APIs on: March 30, 2016, 07:33:05 AM
My advice is this:

Do we need Azure?

Secondly, if we do jump on board, i say this - SEEK LEGAL ADVICE FIRST.
And i mean professional, solid legal advice from more than one lawyer experienced in the field.

heres the link to the nem forum thread regarding azure.

https://forum.nem.io/t/status-on-the-azure-project/2017
absolutely the right decision.
everybody should read this and the linked article.
http://bitcoinist.net/microsoft-bullies-open-source-is-the-blockchain-their-next-target/

GOOD move, there was a reason they seemed to be open and accepting any & all blockchains to Azure.  
Even coins like LISK/IOTA were getting on there before even launching or any testnet whatsoever  Huh

Kudos to the devs or whoever submitted the application that took the time to read the agreement.

This could actually get us some good press NEM rejects Microsoft's Azure Cloud


we should reach out to crypto news sources with the nem forum link above


I completley agree.
This is actually more serious than what i originally thought.
I had read some bad press about Azure's contract, but this says alot.
Microsoft do NOT like open source projects, despite them recently adding code to the linux kernel.
They will do anything in their power to crush any Crypto.
We dont need Azure, we are BETTER!

What does this article suggest?
It appears the Micro$oft hold a stake in blockchain technology and that Ethereum could even be seen as a patent infringement!?
What does this mean for other cryptocurrencies? Is this why they are so keen to get as many coins on the Azure band wagon as possible?

when considering the future development of the Nem platform and finding the positive side to add Nem to Azure, and getting a global perspective to development ; continuing the process of adding to Azure is seen as a positive achievement and on the same terms on which the developers were going to do to the discussion


''...The tech team worked hard in getting NEM into a docker for Azure. In case some of you who may not know Azure, it is a Microsoft cloud computing platform and infrastructure. Recently, some months ago, Microsoft opened up Azure for crypto projects to place their solutions there in the cloud repository so that testers are able to download and testbed these initiatives from one location.

We spent a considerable amount of time getting this done. Unfortunately, at the last stage of our submission we were shown the agreement. In the agreement, to put our solution up there, requires us to give away all our rights. This is not quite palatable. ...''


on whether to add, referring to the Nem system with a private cloud nis, i.e. a free version and open data sources, as it happens now in most cases with other platforms ; I think that although it should consider separately the developers Xem, in more detail Sastras on the rights of the owners of the source code and so on, but with a paid membership to Azure while retaining the copyright to a is also acceptable ( as it is known, Nem locates the source code for free, leaving only the right links to your brand ) ; I think add to Azure in the original version of the strategy of development of the Nem platform, more acceptable and causes


the copyright issue is treated quite seriously, when we talk about information of this kind : kernel, security, Protocol, etc. and that this information is open source, fair use is only a reference to the brand of the source, but in fact being free and open that in a conversation about copyright only superficial and the terms of ownership or owner of these rights is only conditional, and that under these conditions conversation copyright is reduced to a system of open source materials on specific resources and any value that this information not be due to the fact that it is free ; although developers and it is advisable for the future to further assess the situation in this direction and future role of open sources of information including about the copyright status in the event of a change in the condition of information distribution, open another form, I think that assessing the value of the output data or allowing third-party users use of the source code, developers should consider all options and make a more acceptable and less problematic, but with the expectation for the future and further development of the platform Nem


most likely both options with open rights or preserving the right to control their own information is the norm, and that a more accurate variant with the aim of justifying the feasibility and in terms of strategic development of the platform lies in developers and large investors or owners of the platform, and given the strategy of public or corporate way of building, a particular way of adding to Azure should be used, although there is my opinion, thank you


This is what concerns me with Azure, I just dont trust Microsoft.
Why should we become under microsoft's control?
Its like a way for them to destabilise crypto and give them full control over it.
Thats not the way open source projects work.
I would be very careful after learning this, i had read other threads with similar concerns also.
Just dont know why so many coins including ETH have signed up to it? Is BTC on Azure?
1019  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: NEM (XEM) Official Thread - 100% New Code - Easy To Use APIs on: March 28, 2016, 10:00:37 AM
im currently looking for some XEMs to be able to pay the fee to start delegated harvesting. anyone wanna trade? i could pat with BTC or DOGE. or if any strager will be kind enough to toss me some XEM here is my address : NDFQZI-42JHDP-R6RY7D-OLDJEN-YMBELA-6IYBUJ-CPVV. thanks so much

If you dont have enough XEM to spare on harvesting (only 6XEM needed) then how much XEM do you actually have?
I doubt you will have enough to make any real profits...
