I see 15000 Nxt for a tournament, that's around $1200,- prize money.
Can we make that available?
And what could you do with that? I would imagine one tournament? Or two small ones? No idea about the range of prizes we would be talking about.
I think it's crucial to keep moving and at least make a commitment so people can keep going.
How long do you think it would take to organise once we are committed?

You need to get rid of this advertising stuff. Domains are cheap nowadays. Have a look at nxtion.com, nxtcrypto.org, mynxt.org, ... I'm an Interior Architect. This is how much I can do with my knowledge. Enjoying doing it. I wish I could do it without the help of the wix plugins and could host it etc. Wix offer me to get rid of the advertising for 12 euros per month. Maybe I will do that if it succeeds. If I don't succeed in inspiring people about NXT than so be it. 12€/month is expensive  rip-off I pay 11$ / 8€ each month for 5 domains, 100gb space and unlimited traffic. Normal webhosting. Fatih, you should consider this. You will learn a lot.  If Fatih feels comfortable doing it his way, it's his call. I think it's great that people do something at the level of competence that they have. If he keeps the work up, he will learn. But yes, you could have spent less money  |

We need to establish ourselves in the Chinese market more. BTer was a good start, but it's still a small chinese exchange.
Also: we need all the big bitcoin magazines to write about us, they already write about DOGE, Ethereum etc.
Forbes too, the established financial magazines want to be the first to write about financial developments, so let's give them something to write about. Locally too, contact your local, whatever country you live in, biggest financial magazines about it.
We already got Nifty at the Bitcoin Miami conference and we are preparing a much bigger deal on the Berlin one.
I think showmatches in the biggest eSports is also grand and I have been trying to raise funds for this for a month now. That would give us tens of thousands of people who are already well versed in technology becoming aware of NXT and it being a cryptocurrency like Bitcoin. We need to implant NXT in the subconscious of people. That is how marketing works.
So Starcraft 2, CoD, BF4, League of Legends etc. would be A+
I am also in talks with a professional AD maker about making a mini-docu (15 min or so) about the history of money from we were hunter gatheres and up to now with NXT. Outlining the problems of centralization that has existed since the beginning of banks. This is the sort of video that could easily go viral on anti establishment sites and especially in libertarian leaning people.
Problem is: we still haven't figured out how to spend the funds
There are funds for show matches in the google doc. I think it would be a great outreach to the gamer community. How soon could such a thing be set up? Are the funds available for that? |

One can open a new thread inviting new projects-services idea presenters or team of developers to publish their plans, and also investors informing about their desire to invest on some specific kinds of projects or businesses for a defined share.. this way they can match each other and start developing the stuff effectively.. this way the public nxter crowd will have an opportunity to have a finger in work by suggesting desired features and improvements that would result in more user friendly and popular productions and services.
I had the plan to open such a thread much before when I opened the bounty thread, but for personal reason, I prefer to stay away from business side of the things.
That seems a good idea. When I have had some time think and have a better idea of what my plan is, I'll open such a thread and start it off with my plan and invite others to put theirs in there, too. This will need to be announced on the other forums, too, as there are developers who mainly stay in there, but I'd like such a thread to be organised in one place, if possible. That way people with the same idea might form a partnership if it seems more logical of financially sound. |

Are those "..descendant of Nxt" shits spamming in this altcoin section of btt a planned promotional act??
I hope not and hope it is the typical spam trolls doing their routines but since I see some known
Nxt faces oppening some threads of that type recently, I would say if it is a planned "spreading the
word of Nxt" strategy, then it is a very stupid one and will have more negative effects than positive
in the long run..
@salsacs: About the presses I inquired for the already awarded 100K, fortunately CoinDesk published a news
about bter adding Nxt, in which Nxt features has been explained a bit, so no matter that press resulted
out from your efforts or not, I count it as the first one credited.
So you now need to have two more important news press in ZeroHedge, WallStreet or btcmagazine until the
end of March to satisfy the whole 100K bounty condition.
And I am following your team efforts, very good active collaborations, thank you.
Now is the time for another thread to push publishing, helping and supporting new third-party projects-services
that use Nxt as a medium of exchange. For example a good gambling-poker platform, or an auction or digital good
selling site.. so on. Without having this step done and developing a small live economy around Nxt supply we can not expect
Nxt to be accepted by big retailers who sell or provide physical goods in future, no matter how good or excellent the Nxt core
is developed or no matter how many speculators has bought in Nxt and risen its temporary exchange value.
It just happened after FrictionlessCoin started promoting NEX. The night that happened some people started about 5 of these threads. One (NEM) even turned into a legitimate effort to start a coin (possibly on top of NXT). Then someone started KLONE: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=423647 and the shit hit the fan. People started to make sockpuppets and set up parodies. It's gotten a bit out of hand... I'm going to work on a nxt auction site this weekend, at least look into how to set it up. Might have to hire help to make it good. I'll know more about that after the weekend. Also looking to start a Nxt classifieds thing. I won't touch gambling as that is more difficult here in NL. I agree that this is the time to start these things up, now that more Nxt is in people's pockets and it needs to turn into a spendable coin. Has Bit777 already ironed out the wrinkles? They were going to add Nxt to their accepted currencies. Edit: also a site for promotionals, like simple caps, T-shirts, mugs etc. I know that Nxtbay is already around, but I'd like to aggressively PUSH this stuff, as it will only benefit Nxt if people think it's the cool thing to do. I have at least some fun ideas up my sleeve for early adopters to get |

No problem. Thank you for your contribution.
Also, you are also welcome to contribute your talents with us.
I'm not sure this situation can be described as "No problem". R u going to launch the coin using flawed code?Wait what? Is he back to using the Nxt code? Wasn't he going to build it from scratch? |

Open source software. Last I checked, it was under an MIT license.
That code contains 3 flaws. Did u find the last one which will kill the coin within 24 hours?

On another note: isn't this all exciting!
I wonder if it will all be made into a movie in the future.
I want to be played by the future equivalent of Christopher Walken.

If he crosses the line from clown to fraudster i warned him rickyjames will be activated.
reading this thread is better than going to the cinema  He's clearly an idiot who has no idea what the law does and does not protect. I love it when people try to throw the word "law" around with no idea what it means. Old fashion scare tactics. "Defamation" is very hard to prove, plus for a company they would need to prove that their "good name" has been intentionally harmed. Since he already did that himself, he hasn't got shit. |

Legally when they say a corporation is a separate person, it is with the assumption that you have all the paperwork in place. Corporate charter, board meetings, corporate resolutions, and whatever you do don't ever commingle any personal funds with corporate funds. That would almost certainly invalid the whole separate person status and make you fully liable personally for anything the corpotarion did.
So would not having a real corporation
So would not following all the rules of the state you are incoeporated in
That is why i asked about what state you were incorporated in
How large is the board of directors?
James
Corporate entity is incorporated in the State of Delaware under the name CodeAudit Corp. Accusing a company of fraud without having something to back it up can get you sued for defamation. So be very careful what you say. James, may I have your name and address, just in case. Nice change of tack, Intern. A defamation claim will only work if you can prove that your good name has been harmed. In this case, it will very probably lead to the judge deciding that you (or your employees) engaged in exactly that. Ordinary name calling does not constitute defamation, nor does calling you to account on your actions and asking for things you promised. Furthermore, this is the first time you disclosed that you actually represented said company, so any comments aimed at the nickname FrictionlessCoin before this statement will never be taken into account, as anyone can reasonably argue that they were under the impression that they were addressing a person. That actually could be construed as "misleading", you know? Not giving out your identity to people who want to engage in commerce in good faith isn't...weeeeeeeellll, I'll let you think up that word. You clearly have no idea to what extent the law protects you or your "company" against "defamation". Just another way of trying to get the other person to shut up, instead of owning up to the fact that you actually have nothing to offer and no cards of value in your hands. |

Also, can someone get me a girl so I can save my relationship with her?
I'm afraid you can get mine soon, if I don't get my mind off Nxt……. Her sister lives in Delft.  |

Come on people:
Someone must feel responsible and competent enough? (besides optical who apparently can't make it?)
There's many names floating around here.
Not-attending is sending a message...
Nifty is there. Or won't he be attending this? |

I asked in main topic, but I can here too - newsletter would be daily/weekly??
I just caught up with the thread. Can you explain the NxtMarketing acc, it says 1000 for a newsletter. Is that setting it up or pr issue sent? Some NXT for original articles are also mentioned, does this mean that authors posting an article on nxter.org (which will be cited and linked/brought in the newsletter) are up for that bounty? Or how does it work. I'm just trying to find out how much is included in your marketing plan - if I should concentrate on getting the newsletter going or seek sponsors elsewhere + what contributors can expect. You are doing a great job btw, dealing with this chaos [EDIT] LOL and you just answered some of it while I was reading elsewhere. Weekly newsletter. I agree. Looking at my site stats going up steadily and seeing the summaries being shared on Twitter today, I'd say that people are getting extremely news hungry. DAILY updates to the site, even small snippets! If I may give a simple update tip: do them everyday at the same time! Doesn't matter which time (our readers cross all timezones) but do it religiously at the same time. This helps create a feeling of anticipation. I missed one day with my summaries and already received emails half an hour after the normal post date. Also, can someone get me a girl so I can save my relationship with her? |

We are so freakin' decentralized, we even don't get one guy on a plane. But we have great motherf**king developing going on! I like it Well.. Decentralized shouldn't mean unorganized. But I am affraight that is the negative part of decentralization. Noone is responsible.. There are loads of people who táke responsibility, though. That's how a decentralised process cán work. |

Can someone create CfB as an asset and send him to Nifty's account?

This could turn out to be a very exciting Friday evening  |

All,
Schoul'd Optical attend in Miami?
fund can come from unclaimed coins?
thoughts now please, I see already two people that agree he should go... others?
Pin
Get him the Hell over there if he's willing. It's all about the momentum. Flight and hotel will be what? I don't know the going rates for inland flights in the US. 20,000? |

@ Salsacz
Do you think it's irrelevant to coordinate newsletter looks with the rest of the PR material? Maybe it's ok to just use the same logo for the different NXT projects but be unique in other design aspects? It opens up for a wider spread campaign for NXT… Any thoughts?
I think all sites basically take a logo and the color blue or red as a support colour to white. I'm doing a redesign of nxtcoins.nl this weekend, but that's basically my design strategy. I don't like sites that are too heavy on colours anyway. Gives such a sloppy look. My house is sloppy enough |

Premium languages: - cryptoworld still didn't expand here, but maybe Nxt could. If you know this language, please join the team!
Indian
Hi Salsacz, abt the Indian language. India is a mixture of different languages, but the primary one is Hindi. Bt again most ppl in India understand English, so i think it will not be a constraint for the Nxt. Isn't it so that people of lower cast also understands English? India is not illiterate like before. And abt the lower caste, this is damn ridiculous. There is no lower or upper caste, all are human beings. For India, I'd aim for Hindi, English and maybe Bengali and Telugu. You'd go mad trying to get it in all the local languages Hindi would seem the best option as most educated people would understand either English or Hindi, I think. Most people involved with IT will be able to speak/understand English at a medium level, though. |
