pandaisftw finished proofreading of my text, I would like to publish it at some big news site to get attention of the developers and people who like free internet. What do you think? Any suggestions? Thanks

Decentralized internet and Nxt solutions

...
First part is not about Nxt: https://docs.google.com/document/d/166d7sTEnuv9UMlipcJkuciJ3-mUWOWf_y8dzVb3pd30/edit
...

2nd part:
Nxt solutions


If you want to enter the game as a decentralized application, starting as a currency to obtain a wide distribution is a good place to start. All of the above mentioned projects have had problems with integration and distribution. Nxt started as the first pure Proof of Stake cryptocurrency in November 2013, and since then - in just a few short months - it has achieved more than 20.000 users. The first part of BCNext’s plan, the anonymous inventor of Nxt, was spreading the monetary system to as many users as possible to create a network of decentralized P2P computers (nodes). This network is based on a lightweight client running on each connected node, so it can send data directly P2P. Thanks to the new code, it can provide up to 100 transactions per second.

Nxt uses an efficient system to maintain the network by using much lower PC power and electricity than is needed for Bitcoin and its clones. It is important to stay anonymous, by creating the Nxt network from thousands of users from all over the world, so this system cannot be censored. You cannot point to any owner of the Nxt system. Even ordinary users don't own NXT coins, they only know the passphrase to a Nxt brainwallet. This means that no executor can take Nxt coins from you… There is no creator to blame, no specific user to arrest, and you cannot take the Nxt network down. Nobody can censor P2P networks. Nxt also is not vulnerable to 51% attacks like Bitcoin, so even if someone owns 90% of all Nxt coins, the Nxt network is secured thanks to Transparent Forging invention.
 
Nxt evolved by revealing the second part BCNext's plan. Nxt coins will not be used exclusively as a currency, but they will be the building blocks to implement any other project on top of the Nxt platform. Thousands of cryptocurrencies can be built on top of the Nxt network. All will be secured by Nxt’s green and attack proof environment. It is up to the creators of those coins, whether their currency will be Proof of Work (Dogecoin), Stake (Peercoin), Bandwidth (Lakshmi, Bitcloud), Burn (Counterparty) or even Learning and Content (UNITAS project). These coins can be used for different purposes – for travel agencies, hotels, casinos, universities, Amish or any other rural communities, African (and other) countries, and Nxt could eventually replace even Dollars. In the distant future they can even serve as a currency for space colonies.

The third part of BCNext's plan will be released on April 2014. It will most likely be his idea about building all kinds of decentralized applications on top of Nxt’s green network. Since the Nxt system is democratic and users will be able to vote on all important decisions, people do not have to listen to BCNext's plans and can continue on to have Nxt as a simple currency. This is one of the most important inventions of Nxt: the creator BCNext has no power over Nxt and he cannot control its development. All the power is in the hands of independent developers and reviewers of the code. He can only suggest new codes, but he cannot implement them straight to the program. Nxt system is completely decentralized, there is no leader, no sponsoring company or corporation. Nxt’s organization has evolved with the help of active Nxt users, but still there is no higher authority. Some people have already begun to work on new coins and other implementations, so BCNext's plan will likely be fulfilled as well as being complemented by new ideas.
 
In last few days Nxt applications similar to Twitter and Viber (messages app) were developed. Very soon will be published first game built on top of the Nxt network: a decentralized Poker game. Nxt will provide a platform for easy creation of new currencies. They will be maintained on Nxt blockchain, but they will have their own environment. Also, people can use assets to issue new coins, so they can easily create their own monetary system thanks to asset exchange that is already implemented.

Nxt Arbitrary messages has lead us to the true decentralized web - torrent files have already been sent via this network. With more blockchains, Nxt will be able to provide a cloud storage and file sharing apps. The principle behind these applications is using different blockchains for different purposes: one for file storage, one for messages, and so on. Each app will use only a specific blockchain(s) and won't be spammed by the others. Additionally, with the blockchain pruning function, users will not need to download large blockchains as they do now with Bitcoin and its forks.

Other functions based on Zerocoin and mixing services can provide a completely anonymous infrastructure that was originally built in the Phantom protocol - a decentralized network that focuses on the anonymization of users. Currently, Bitcoin and Nxt are only pseudonymous. With the Zerocoin feature integrated within the NXT core, it will be mathematically infeasible to link the particular coins used by each user.

Decentralized computing systems built on the Nxt platform could locally solve all kinds of research projects. Thanks to the extremely fast Nxt network, home computers can work on mathematical projects so their owners may receive crypto coins. With built-in decentralized exchanges, such coins can immediately exchanged for other coins. Currently being tested, the decentralized Asset Exchange allows users to transform these coins into assets for fiat currencies, shares or commodities such as silver and gold. Anyone can use these exchanges without any restrictions of high fees. Nxt uses small fees, and these fees are always returning to the users who maintain the Nxt network. While fees in VISA or PayPal system go to the centralized corporations, in the Nxt ecosystem, they are distributed fairly between users.

Nxt will be soon cooperating with DAC (Distributed Autonomous Corporations), such as Bitcloud or ArkOS. With Bitcloud, nodes on a mesh network can be rewarded financially for routing traffic in a brand new mesh network. This removes the need for Internet Service Providers. The goal is always same: to replace YouTube, Dropbox, Facebook, Spotify, and others with decentralized, open source alternatives.

ArkOS and Nxt systems are very ecofriendly, you can run Nxt on a Raspberri Pi too. Possible merging of these projects may lead to a future of free, decentralized and green internet. Especially if the programs created on top of Nxt network used applications similar to ArkOS.

Nxt is one step ahead of all other decentralized platforms thanks to its kickstart as a cryptocurrency. It is now ready to become a new decentralized internet. Nxt provides a powerful and flexible platform for developers, allowing them to easily develop new applications for Nxt. Thanks to great community behind it, as evidenced by the thousands of pages on the Nxt Bitcointalk “pub” thread, Nxt has achieved so much in such little time. Anyone can join this fantastic group of open minded individuals and make a positive contribution. For more info see nxt.org or forums.nxtcrypto.org.

kickstarter ideas

- there can be 2 kinds of kickstarters:
a) classic, when you use kickstarter as an escrow, so there is no problem with potential cheaters. But owner can decide to have some fee or can fly away.

b) direct, P2P payments, people are paying straight to the projects, so it is like IPO with all problems with cheaters, because no one guarantees you returning Nxt

Hey... I would like to know your take on the following... would it be a good idea for those getting prepared to establish a Nxt Asset to get funded through crowd funding platforms like https://www.startjoin.com/projects/discover/all?  
Think of it this way... if one issues a Nxt Asset and offers shares directly to the Nxt community... he/she would only be able to get funding from people that are already active in the Nxt community and/or from people that already own NXT.  What if Nxt Asset Exchange projects were to be introduced on platforms like StartJoin?  It could be clear in the terms that the gathered funds would be exchanged for corresponding shares of the respective Nxt Asset (which would be valued in NXT of course).
In other words... there will be conversation about Nxt Asset projects... ability for people to participate with Bitcoin but also with fiat (StartJoin accepts PayPal)...    Wink
Edit:  Even if it is not a good idea for Nxt Asset Exchange projects to get funded through such platforms... maybe it would be wise for a marketing push for NXT to be added as a form of pledge.
yes, NxtStarter will have: Asset funding, charity funding, Nxt projects funding, any kind of other project funding (a game, a game built on top of the Nxt network)..

I let you know way back in january that it cost more than 15K though!
At the time this was begun the price of NXT was half what it is today, you wont get professional players who get their livelihood from this game to play for a couple hundred. And of course casters cost money.
We agreed on sending 15k. If the price of nxt was half, you could wait for few weeks, there is no reason to rush such events.

CONFERENCES

please add me back to the one in Nevada.  And if no one else wants to step up to assist rickyjames in Austin, I will for that one as well

In Berlin Salsa got us a discount on "TBC Sponsor" at $1000 (instead of $2500).  Good job negotiating, there, Salsacz!    Asian Prepper is flying in for TBC and also has a friend in Austin with a entrance pass of his own.   So I have put in the names for one pass for me and the other for AP.  I think I am getting a slot in a Alt-coin discussion panel that is still being organized.  I think we are good to go on Austin.  Plus, I am working on a little surprise for Austin that I'll probably unveil here by the weekend....  
well, lucky.. now you have to hitch-hike to get there and seduce some local female to have a sleep Cheesy

no, we are waiting for pro company to create for us branding packages, so we will have new logos etc, so any items created with old logos are a waste of time and resources I think

Do they use the old logo and enhance it (color, variations, text combinations, ...), do they use the old logo as inspiration or do they make a complete new logo?
nobody knows

Will you also create / sell clothing for promotional purposes?

btw as I already mentioned a few times, my friends are the developers of online trading card game (like Magic TCG), and we are going to implement a gaming currency into the coin built on top of the Nxt network. Coins would be balanced by gaming cards, like fiat was balanced by gold. So you could even gain coins by playing and getting new achievements and so on.
