I think that BBQCoin will make a comeback once they convince an actual BBQ chain to accept it as currency!

Absolutely!  No doubt about it.  BBQCoin is the future!

Just imagine... if a BBQ restaurant chain started accepting BBQCoin they could replace their charcoal grills with ASIC-heated grills to secure their payments.  Think of the amount of wasted energy saved by cooking all that pork instead of just dispersing it into the atmosphere.  It's delicious and eco-friendly!

The spreads are significant. Dash is at 0.00739 on Cryptsy and 0.00868 on Poloniex

Edit: It is unclear which coins are good "exit" coins. With MtGox it was XBT and at  the end JPY

if you look at DOGE spread and volume, DOGE withdrawls seem to work

This simply goes to show that the amount of Doggie holdings one has is inversely proportional to their IQ.

I'm sick and tired of people making it out that I'm the bad guy and I'm going to say something about it.  I've always liked NXT and I'll always like NXT.  Now, I don't have to like or agree with a centralized group of individuals to make good on that belief.  Some of you will claim that one statement doesn't justify such a display, but when it unveils that the true beliefs of someone are opposite of the required beliefs for a position that they voluntarily took, salary or not, I say that it does.  I've said it before and I'll say it again; NXT is either the NeXT Bitcoin or it is nothing at all.  BCNext didn't create NXT to be just another altcoin.  If that is its fate, then let it die.  Half-measures lead to nowhere.  You either believe in NXT or you don't.  I'm not going to sit around here and make-believe that selling out the ideology of NXT is okay with me, because it's not.  I felt that way back in 2013 and I feel that way today.  If that requires me calling out everybody involved in NXT and being marked as the bad guy, then so be it.

BTS is on to something...  Merging the order books of small exchanges into one large liquid distributed exchange is a really novel idea.  It's a bummer the idea didn't fly...  I hope it does in the future.

Oh come on, they intentionally set the whole thing up so it will always be controlled by a select few individuals.  How is that decentralized?  How is that even a cryptocurrency?

honest truth is many people in crypto are 'weird' by conventional standards - intelligent, but lots of free time spent alone on their PC, why? because they don't have much of a life outside their own head. Then there's the mentally ill people, like bluemeanie, and *probably* 2kool4skewl (aka DecentralizeEconomics) it's clear to me DE has a diagnosis of some sort, so how to 'deal' with him (and others like him) is not a simple matter. His personality in dec 2015 is very different to how he was on rippleforum & NXT community in 2013, so I suspect he's developed an illness.

mental illness is not something to 'play' with, so I suggest leaving DE alone, and not engaging with him at all.

Mmm.... Geez.... Wow, I gotta tell you... Whew... that sounds serious.  I appreciate your professional diagnosis, but don't you have more important things to worry about... like how you're going to keep people from realizing that you're brainless after the elastic in that sock cap wears out?

Nxt has a large number of people volunteering for tasks for little reward. I have been reviewing the history of nxt from Sept 2013 and what i see is a grassroots community motivated by something other than mere $$. I don't see that in many other coins. original stakeholders like klee gave away lots of coins to kick things off, and so many people were enthusiastic, the mega thread is a testament to that.

Things needed to change from that time to streamline things, but i still see the original spirit and idealism today. That's why so many haters still, bitter people hate idealistic grassroots movements, it makes them feel crap, so they spend hours spreading fud rather than doing positive things like making contributions. Critics, not doers! We all know who they are.

do not invest in anything (except Bitcoin) for a while....do lots of research first.

Bitcoin is still the gateway into crypto,  and a fairly reliable short term investment. I'm giving unbiased advice there


Agreed.  The NXT Foundation / Tennessee "marketers" are traitors to the original movement and need to go.  I don't know how much more of this "marketing" my wallet can handle.

Forum posts on BTT are NOT marketing!

EvilDave's response to the crypto newbie was spot on - 'buy bitcoin, read/learn as much as you can, then buy alts with potential'

Get out of here you Bitcoin maximalist.  Again, this thread is for NXT supporters ONLY!

EvilDave has developed a good reputation as an honest straight shooter who isn't a troll, and doesn't push an agenda with every post he makes.

EvilDave's good reputation, together with Damelon's, allowed them to raise 10M NXT from voluntary donations in a unique display of decentralised co-operative effort in the crypto space.

ALL non-trolls are impressed!!

He's pushing an agenda alright.  It's just not the agenda he's suppose to be pushing.

Is this part of the Tennessee "marketing" campaign?  Serious question.

Absolutely not! I am in no way connected to Tennessee. And I am in no way connected to NXT foundation, developers, forum, or any other NXT group.

I am 100% a lonewolf. I have never posted at NXT forum.

It sounds like you're probably a private contractor for Tennessee.

"NXT is dead!  Do not invest in anything (except Bitcoin) for a while....do lots of research first.

Don't want to scare you off, but crypto is still the Wild West, and there are some bad guys around. You have to protect yourself. No-one else will. Cool

What happened to TF, any ETA on its implementation? Its surprising that after all this time there is still no TF when it was one of the features promised on launch.


If you understand TF*  == the ability to predict the next block with a high probability... such as said here...

TF is just an ability to "predict" the future. All the other is bells and whistles.

... then it has been implemented since block 30,000 (1st January 2014)

You can see it alive and kicking, predicting the next forger, here



Otherwise you will have to ask a more specific question as I am not sure what else to tell you.



*Transparent Forging

 I thought that once TF was implemented the debilitating block times would go away. I guess I misunderstood, in which case the block times are an issue.

Block times are going to be resolved in 1.7 to my knowledge.

I think we got the BTER hack mixed up with another hack.  The other hack victim was maybe not a dev but was one of the NXT committee leaders where his Mac was hacked and millions of coins were stolen.  I think they also negotiated with the hacker and some of it was returned and they never came after the hacker which we found really odd when we heard about it.

Another case where the NXT community sweeping it under the rug and then pretending everythng is ok.

Yeah, I know who you're talking about now.  There was a guy named "Klee" who held over three million NXT in community funds.  Supposedly, if you believe him, he was dumb enough to upload his NXT passphrase unencrypted to Dropbox.  Srsly.  According to him, he was "hacked" and they stole the three million in community funds and some of his own NXT.  (You know they gotta steal some of yours too to make it look legit, right.)  He ended up paying back some of the "lost" NXT from his own holdings.  But, yes, a bunch of morons over on the NXT Forum actually bought this story and anybody accusing him of wrong-doing was silenced.  I remember there was an anonymous person who started a thread with personal details on how Klee was really the perpetrator of this "theft" along with some other woman.  The NXT Forum moderators deleted this post within hours of its posting because it had "personal information".

NXT is a scam, and its dead. Cant we just leave it alone now and stop bumping the 10's of nxt threads all day long.

NXT isn't a scam and it's not dead.  It's just been hijacked by a bunch of centralizing profiteering morons called the NXT Foundation / Tennessee marketing project.  How stupid do you have to be to support these imbeciles who claim they are "marketing" for NXT, but are really telling new, potential users to go use Bitcoin?  Wow, I can't believe the price is dropping.  What could be wrong?  Who could've guessed that would have a negative consequence on the price?  Roll Eyes
1677  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The NXT Foundation / Tennessee Marketing Project Is a Joke on: December 20, 2015, 10:09:31 AM
I think the scamming in the NXT community should be investigated.  From what my group gathered, besides the Lee and John alleged scams, there was a NXT project dev who had his BTER account hacked and the hacker stole millions of NXT which the dev earned from selling NXT assets (community funds).  The hacker supposedly returned some of the NXT and the rest he kept.  The fact that the dev and the community allowed this to happen, letting the hacker go and swept it under the rug, I find odd.

I don't know if we got the details right, but it would help for anyone to enlighten me and the readers of this thread.

The BTER hack was one of the biggest scams going.  First of all, everyone knows that an exchange hack is 99.9999% most likely perpetrated by the exchange operator.  After BTER was "hacked", Lin (BTER's operator aka freeworm) and staff supposedly were in negotiations with the hacker "The Sir" to recover the NXT.  Now anyone with an ounce of brain matter knows that a successful hacker isn't going to negotiate with the victim.  What benefit would the hacker have from such actions?  The answer is none.  But none the less, this charade of negotiations with the hacker went on and supposedly BTER sent the hacker some BTC (less than the amount of NXT he stole) and the hacker returned all but eight million NXT.  He original stole over fifty million NXT.  Now of course. Lin was really the thief, but a lot of people on the NXT Foundation claimed that he wasn't.  What a bunch of morons.  After this, an individual known as "Dom P" decided it would be a good idea to collect money to attempt to track down the thief.  Another ridiculous money grab for nothing.  They collected the money and guess what?  They got nowhere.  I'm shocked.

Now this "Dom P" guy is another worthless scammer.  He started "Cryptocoins, the first crypto hedge fund".  Long story short, he ended up spending everyone's money on himself and then when it was time to pay everyone back, decided that he couldn't take it anymore, cracked up and refused to talk to anyone.

Who is this NXT dev that you are referring to?

BREAKING NEWS!

NXT Foundation / Tennessee Marketing Project Attempts to Join with the Chinese Communists!

https://nxtforum.org/general-discussion/price-speculation/msg204021/#msg204021
Quote from: EvilDave
Nxt Foundation did apply, but didn't get the grant this time out.
I asked for funding to help with development of a new, fully customisable client for Nxt.
Looking at the guys who did get the grant, it's obvious that Blockchain Labs don't want to underwrite internal development for any crypto-currencies, but are looking for complete projects.

Did any other Nxt-based projects apply ?

Straight from the horse's mouth.  Here is EvilDave of the Tennessee marketing project admitting that he is spending his time attempting to sell out NXT to the Chinese Communists!  Why would a "supposedly" decentralized organization want to align itself with a bunch of wealth redistributing communists.  Free NXTers don't want the Chicom party involved in NXT.  Lucky, the Chinese Communists knowing that they cannot control NXT like they can Bitsnares rejected this proposition.  Obviously, the NXT Foundation / Tennessee marketing project is attempting to destroy NXT from the inside out!  Don't let them win!

Long Live Free NXT!
1679  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The NXT Foundation / Tennessee Marketing Project Is a Joke on: December 20, 2015, 06:54:22 AM
Unlikely but not impossible that a clone some day with better marketing take the position of Nxt keeping the development, But maybe that sounds crazy now.

Nobody needs any "official" marketing.  The only thing of any benefit is traditional grassroots growth.  This is true for all decentralized cryptocurrencies.
1680  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The NXT Foundation / Tennessee Marketing Project Is a Joke on: December 20, 2015, 12:00:11 AM
Wrong.  I am the voice of my investment.  If I don't like how others are representing it, then I'm going to say something about it.

Throwing tantrums and hissy fits shaped as walls of words on Bitcointalk.

So now, what do you expect? Satoshi or his earthly placeholders to descend into the Lowlands and discipline your allegedly unruly employees?

If you had any answers to that question, you'd not be wasting time with your psychotic rants, but you'd simply be doing it yourself, only better.

Now that would smart them, wouldn't it? Whacking them with a superior achievement?

But you very much seem to be incapable of constructive work.

Wich frustrates you mightily, gets you all into aggressive hysterics, which then keeps getting you banned (even on Bitcointalk), and then having to come back with a new account.

rinse& repeat  Cheesy

I hope my posts enlighten others as to what is really going on with the NXT Foundation / Tennessee marketing campaign and convinces them that these are unneeded and even detrimental projects which centralize NXT, associate NXT with scammers, take funds from generous individuals to be spent on cronyism and are the antithesis to the ideology of NXT as set forth by BCNext.

What exactly was the TXT Coins Now "fiasco" if it wasn't a scam?  Seriously, I'd like to know.  People lost a lot of money over it.  You know as well as I do that the post that was on NXT Forum about Lee contained links and quotes from companies complaining about his "business" practices.  I remember he scammed one company for ~$5800.  I'm sure anyone willing to do a google search for "Lee Gibson Grant" will find evidence of his prior behavior.  Do you really think just because Lee supposedly got scammed by John M. of Cointropolis that it clears him of any suspected wrong-doing?  There is no honor among thieves.  I also wouldn't be surprised if John and Lee were working together to mislead everyone.

Here is where the NXT community is being naive.  Didn't it occur to you guys that they could both be in on it?


 Wink Yeah, we're not stupid. I did consider that John and Lee could have been working together, in fact we considered every option, up to alien abduction.

It was a pretty simple bit of scamming; John and Lee were both at the 2014 PayExpo, representing Nxt. During Johns flight back to the US from London someone posted using his forum account to offer ' an incredible investment opportunity'  if people threw BTC at him right now.
Some people did, like Lee, before others got suspicious and shut it down.
When John got off his plane, he claimed that his forum account must have been hacked.....tbh, I still have no f**king idea what the truth is.
Seeing as Nxt had just hired John and Cointropolis as PR consultants, it seems suicidally dumb for John to scam like that, and take the chance on blowing his reputation completely.
But: he never offered any evidence in his defence, and faded away pretty quickly from the Nxt community after that.
If anyone ever figures out what really happened, I'd love to know.

On  Lee, here's the Google search link. I got bored at page 5......
https://www.google.nl/search?q=lee+gibson+grant

Here's a thought... Lee stole John M's password while they were both at PayExpo and used it when John wasn't available to login (on the plane home) to post his scam.  Of course, Lee would send himself enough funds to make it look legitimate to others and to entice them to also send funds.  Maybe John didn't want to be associated with a scamming, lying thief like Lee.

If the moron moderators over on NXT forum hadn't deleted the post with links to Lee's scamming past, we wouldn't all be trying to uncover it again.  What do the NXT mods have against open investigations against people who are suspected of defrauding the community?  What is going on over there?  Your continued association with Lee does not look good at all.  It looks like some or all of the NXT moderators / NXT Foundation members are working with Lee to perpetrate these scams.  Why else would they delete a post regarding Lee's questionable history and continue associating with him?  THIS IS BAD NEWS.

@de
What have you done for nxt? Do you have ANY initiatives? If you are unhappy then sell and move on, i dare ya!
Only a fool would talk so much shit and keep the investment. And of course,, dont let the door hit you on the way out, you banned knucklehead.

Only a fool would sit back and not say anything when they suspect misconduct around a group of centralized individuals pretending to be the voice of his investment.

People shouldn't keep sweeping this under a rug.  The corruption in NXT could all be traced all the way to the top.  What happened?

The NXT Foundation and their supporters will keep sweeping this under the rug, ignoring warnings and censoring those who say anything about it until it explodes and severely damages NXT's reputation.  They of course will claim that they didn't know and are innocent victims even though they lit the fuse.  The will be able to disappear into the background and escape judgment from most individuals, but NXT will bear the full burden.  The longer they associate themselves with a known scammer the worse the outcome and the more suspicious their actions look.  One might try to argue that they are just stupid and naive, but at what point does that excuse no longer hold water?  At what point does it become impossible to believe in such naivety and instead be left with the only logical conclusion of malice?  The NXT Foundation needs to be cut out from NXT like the malignant tumor that it is.  The longer it is left to fester more damage it does to the patient.
