Calling it Nextcoin will give the impression that it has no more to offer than BitCoin, DogeCoin, CatCoin, RonPaulCoin... (etc, etc)....when in reality there is going to be way more to NXTthan simply pushing money round the interwebs.
But we can fight on many fronts at the same time. To be succesful as a Nextcoin. To become the best mobile sms app known as Nxtalk. To be known as the best decentralized exchange known as Nxtrade... Then comes the day when all these functions will be used in one app

From a sales/marketing perspective... I think that calling Nextcoin by "Nxt" instead of "Nextcoin" is a huge mistake. Nothing kills adoption faster then "confusion". Calling something "Nxt" is confusing as hell. I know u commented on my video once n asked me to use the term Nxt instead of Nextcoin n it took several weeks before I realized what you were even talking about. I think we should have stuck with the term "Nextcoin". Instead of relying on fancy names to promote Nextcoin, we should be focused on making solid features on Nxt and make it as user friendly and easy to understand as possible. This is one area that is still lacking in the crypto market despite the fact that we have dozens of different currencies. people who are already in the crypto currency market can figure out and understand what "Nxt" is… But people new to the crypto currency market will have no clue (unless they do extensive research) to even know that Nxt is a crypto currency. Confusion is not good for public adoption... Nextcoin would be just as confusing, because Nxt isn't a coin, or rather not just a coin. The "coin" is part of the larger system. I clearly understand that nxt is not a coin. What do you think people will find when they search for "what is nextcoin?" vs. "what is nxt?" on google? Right now, the only people that know nxt is a crypto are people on these forums... in order to get massive adoption it's important that the non technie public can "instantly" recognized the term we use. Do you think people will understand "nextcoin" easier or just using the words "next"? I understand we want to differentiate ourselves from btc to show that we are unique n different. We can do that by making nxt easier to "use" rather then using a fancy name that does nothing but causes confusion. I've known and invested in btc n cryptos for a yr now n still did not know what "next" was when I heard n saw it for the first time... however, i instantly knew what the term "nextcoin" meant the first time i heard it. Imagine how a new public user would think when they first hear the term "next". don't put urself in ur shoes. put yourself in the shoes of a new non techie user. I don't care about million users of Bitcoins. I care about 400 Million people who did not use Bitcoin or any other coin, but they will use Nxt. But maybe: if apple is an organization who created an iPhone, we can be Nxt who created Nextcoin and many other things...

Hi, I am just curious. Sometimes when there is an altcoin without mining, people are very surprised or even disappointed. First generation crypto currencies are based on mining, but it can be changed in the future. Is it only that people love getting something new for "free"? So they buy gpu/cpu/asic miners, pay for electricity and enjoy new coins in their wallet? Like in some RPG? Or is it something else? Thank you ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I am little curious why devs didn't create aliases ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) or why almost all big stakeholders didn't make aliases ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) I have a separate alias account. They may do the same. so they had to buy some nxt by dgex ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Btw, how to delete an alias: Create a new account, send there some coins, rebuy your alias by using a pass from 1st account for 1 coin, then buy the same alias for more coins by the 2nd acc passphrase

There already is a Qubic coin, this isn't nice of you to make such same name

The people who hold the big load should give more away, yes. That's the only way 'the masses' will approve of this coin. As long as a few people hold 90% of the coins, this won't work.
Sounds like your not keeping up with distribution updates, and posting without actually doing research. 90% of the coins are not held by a few people anymore. Its more like 40% now, and lowering. 900 million is owned by 246 accounts

So, you premined 100% and still don't do a giveaway?
So, you decided you would come in, spout your opinion and ask for a giveaway? Not asking for a giveaway. Just questioning your marketing strategies If you'd done some research, you'd know that there have been giveaways and there still are loads of bounties for people who contribute. You'd also know that the word "mine" doesn't apply here. I did know that. I did my research. Still don't think that's sufficient I have been thinking about that last sentence, and the only answer I can come up with is: "So, how do you propose to solve that? Force people to give it away?" Or is it basically just a statement that means to say "I disapprove"? The people who hold the big load should give more away, yes. That's the only way 'the masses' will approve of this coin. As long as a few people hold 90% of the coins, this won't work. and then one cheater came, created 70 accounts and gatheret 35.000 nxt with them in generous giveaways... not cool

Edit, here are actual numbers: 51,189,348 is owned by 1 accounts 101,194,537 is owned by 2 accounts 151,072,364 is owned by 3 accounts 228,626,667 is owned by 5 accounts 255,359,863 is owned by 6 accounts 307,218,909 is owned by 8 accounts 358,888,187 is owned by 11 accounts 411,719,731 is owned by 15 accounts 455,177,139 is owned by 19 accounts 504,908,228 is owned by 24 accounts 551,807,211 is owned by 29 accounts 602,199,198 is owned by 35 accounts 651,455,247 is owned by 43 accounts 700,721,264 is owned by 54 accounts 750,533,260 is owned by 76 accounts 800,590,952 is owned by 120 accounts 850,100,705 is owned by 192 accounts 900,030,899 is owned by 538 accounts
Would you add numbers? Number of Accounts with 10.000 Nxt+ Number of Accounts with 100.000 Nxt+ Number of Accounts with 1000.000 Nxt+ I recalculated your table to compare it with Btc: 289 million Nxt is owned by: 7 accounts 215 million Nxt is owned by: 14 accounts 248 million Nxt is owned by: 55 accounts 207 million Nxt is owned by: 10.000 accounts Lost: 5.000.000 Nxt BTC: 28.9% 47 individuals 21.5% 880 individuals 24.8% 10.000 individuals 20.7% 1 million individuals But still, is there a chance to get easy answer to this: Number of Accounts with 1.000 Nxt Number of Accounts with 10.000 Nxt Number of Accounts with 100.000 Nxt Number of Accounts with 1000.000 Nxt Number of Accounts with 10.000.000 Nxt -this is easy ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Number of Accounts with 100.000.000 Nxt - this too

Number of lost Nxt:
if DGEX says he lost 800k Nxt and he owns 80 Mega, it means 1% of Nxt is probably lost: 10 Millions

I am looking at some real world PR opportunities - i think Kaiser is nobody in real world. In shitcoin/bitcoin world every teenager cares only about mining... But we need to get to Jimmy Kimmel, Ellen or Letterman. But to get there we should probably climb throught Kaiser... or not? Does anyone have better connections with Winklevoss brothers? This is one awesome citation: Do you think the unequal distribution of bitcoin / big gains of early adopters will be a deterrent in a more widespread adoption of bitcoins? Cameron WinklevossNo. Early adopters get bigger gains (as they should) because they take on bigger risk. A bitcoin can be divided into 100 million pieces, so I don't see divisibility or distribution as a problem. It is simple to contact them by twitter/reddit so we just need a wait a little for better timing. another citations: I view BTC more as an alternative to fiat currencies than a replacement. I have not invested in any altcoins because I don't believe that any of the "problems" or issues that they address can't be addressed by Bitcoin itself
927 people own half of the bitcoins. Do you consider this a hindrance to its future market cap? No. Bitcoins can be divided into 100 million pieces so its not important whether half of the bitcoins are held by 927 people or 9,270,000 people, etc.

I ask members who are against voting system to look at all the polls we have been having lately & honestly I don;t think the number will decrease as we more forward.
So a voting system is definitely required....the sooner the better.
A portion of the community funds should be spent for this ASAP!
Well, I have doubts that the voting system 1 NXT = 1 voice is the right choice. Vote system per se is not bad. Just don't know how this should work. Voting here is at least 1 user = 1 voice (approx.) there is already one cheater who created 70 Nxt accounts and 70 nextcoin.org accounts and by begging he gathered 35.000 Nxt...

Contest
3 best applications using Arbitrary Messages will get rewards. Community voting should be done from 1st to 3rd of February.
Decentralized exchanges will be done after community voting? With centralized exchanges only them and maybe top 8 stakeholders (core devs) will have a voting power

4) Media campaign, is ongoing, but we should wait to throw the bomb when above issues r solved I thought utopianfuture and or landomata takes the lead here ? 1) utopianfuture should manage the media campaign.
