Can I please get some Test NXT in account 16248676195570366253 ?

I will forward some to a couple friends and offer a little giveaway in twitter so people can try the latest wesleyh client including password generator.

Wesley's client tells me that account has a balance of 500,000. How many friends do you have?

Um... my current balance in testnet reads 5,000.

It is now telling me you have a balance of 2million...

Wesley?

Hhm... I appear to be in private mode again. Let me try it the other way.



I think it shows it correctly to me :

Account 16248676195570366253 Info
This account has a balance of 17'497 NXT.

10/03/2014 21:11:32   Ordinary payment      2'500           3   17238779241348084924
10/03/2014 21:06:20   Ordinary payment      15'000   1   4940924250576724047
10/03/2014 20:45:44   Ordinary payment      5'000            5   You

Try private mode in firefox and go to the 'send money' dialogue box in Wesley's client. In the recipient put 2299216276842660095 (this is me). edit: at the bottom of the dialogue box it tells you info about the account you are sending to. It should read 13'089.

What do you get?

Maybe it is just me...   Embarrassed

How do you check the balance of another person in my client? You can only see that after you sent a message or something? Edit: oh, the send coin dialog .. hmm will check.

Yes.

Did you want some TestNxt ?
Can I have some TestNxt too?  Smiley

Accountnr. 5678029137156573042

And you have over 1 million. Does anyone actually need testnxt? I was going to spread 15,000 around as I got two donations.

It is telling me you now have over 2.5 million... Roll Eyes

Not sure what is going on. I have tried in private and not in private and can't get a consistent result. Then tried to look at the same accounts through a new account ('passphrase' with a one at the end) and can't get a consistent balance.

I'll give it a minute and try again (maybe turn it off and turn it back on again). Could it be some of my firefox plugins? Ghostery, no script (i am running all the scripts that were blocked: nxtra.org, mynextcoin.org, convert-unix-time.org).

Is the Testnet down?

I am using Wesley's client in Firefox in Windoze.

I see the funds I have and I have created an asset that shows up on the dashboard.

But when I click on the asset exchange and it says "Please select an asset on the left sidebar" nothing appears. The Asset exchange title still appears to be loading (going ... ... ... ... etc) but no change. I see the asset I issued in "My assets" too.

Any help?

Thanks

Seems to be something wrong with that testnet server, I will switch to another one soon. It's a slow server too at the moment.

@Wesley Possible bug?

I believe the problem was I was using your excellent Client in private mode.

I tried to see the assets in *cough* internet explorer *cough* *cough* and it worked fine. I then switched to normal mode in firefox and it worked fine. Switched back into private mode and the assets didn't appear again so the problem is with the private mode of firefox (if there is a problem).

Final draft. What do you guys think? I'm pretty sure this is what the bars are going to look like.




Looking good, what format is that in?

I always liked "Sic Parvis Magna" - Greatness from small beginnings.

It isn't arrogant and will get better over time as Nxt's greatness improves Cheesy

I just think people should stop obsessing over these stakeholders and what they are doing and get busy doing whatever you can do to contribute. Far too much sour grapes about this in my opinion. NXT are still only pennies each. If you buy some now and it goes up to $1 that's quite a profit. If it goes up to $5 then one day people will hassle you about why you're not giving away money so they too can get in on the gravy train they didn't buy a ticket for.  

Agreed - and I don't think anyone is actually going to "convince" the anonymous founders to ever "give up their hoards" as IMO their goal wasn't to "get rich" at all.


You think the 50million Nxt accounts are always going to be there. That They were 'set aside' at the start as they were always designed to become part of the small group that make TF in Nxt work in the original plan?

TestNXT to 2299216276842660095 please, if there are any left.

+100000000 to btc2nxt for giving us crypto noobs some useful and structured things to try on the AE. Though, I will still have to create and transfer 50 "honks" to the owner of "boobs"... no apologies.

Less of the sniping at each other please, I thought Emule was gaining some traction a few pages back. If you are feeling down and dejected, simply take a break. We will still be here when you get back Wink

For everyone else, let's get on it people!

Re-phrased. I'm a crypto/software noob not a newcomer, I've read every word from page 680ish? (EpicThomas fallout and the rise of RickyJames). The roller coaster continues...

Yep... I think you are right... unfortunately... to lots of this discussion is irrelevant..

Quite likely BCNext studied Ripple closely (maybe even worked on it) and thought PoS could be a less "centralised looking" method of consensus than the "federated servers" model.

Anyway - at least I now have a much better understanding about "what the plan" is (or at least was) - I guess it is now up to the community to decide whether to follow this plan or create a different one.


This makes me think about the long term value of Nxt. I understand Nxt was always intended for businesses (Wall street guys in CfB speak) as a new platform. BCNext doesn't want "miners" involved and the few remaining will be shaken out when fees drop to ~0 but this will also make Nxt attractive to businesses (they may get 100-1000 transactions for the price of one).

I see the long term value of Nxt tokens being a function of:

i) Savings from transaction fees
ii) The risk businesses are willing to take to ensure the continuation of ther platform (i.e. buying stake and supporting the network). Consider these as Business Insurance Premiums.

I can't see Nxt tokens being worth close to zero under these conditions (cheap ones will be bought up by the most established businesses before it got close to zero), nor can I see them going "to da moon" as it would be a barrier to entry for new businesses.

Jl777, you seem to be the most advanced down the route of visualising and setting up businesses with high numbers of transactions. Any thoughts?
  
Um, I usually have some thoughts Smiley

Actually today I am highly distracted. I got hit by an idea that is leading to other ideas which lead to other ideas, ...
As it relates to this question, I am exploring what could be done if ALL accts did at least one transaction per day. Currently that would generate a little bit more in fees than historical averages Smiley

There are some pretty amazing things that become possible at .1 and .01 NXT per transaction. More after I refine idea a bit more

James


Sounds mysterious, I see you have been speaking with CfB too much.


Also, if I understand correctly (I'm not sure I do), there will need to be a network of powerful kit to do the heavy lifting to allow high numbers of transactions. The cost of this isn't likely to be covered by the 'income' from forging. So it will be an additional cost and so who will pay for this?

This will be a burden on the grocer and the corner shop. It will be an additional expense for the multinational engineering firm or advertiser but they might be persuaded possibly. So the only group likely to accept this burden as it would probably lighten their existing burden is... the banks?

Are multinational banks likely to make up a large chunk of the Nxt backbone in the future? If so, I'd guess marketing won't be happy.

1. Could somebody point me to the link of recently announced open source?
2. Does announced open source still have fatal flaw inside it?

1. https://bitbucket.org/JeanLucPicard/nxt/src
2. No, but if the only changes u want to do is changing the genesis block then u'll trigger a trap


Potential stoopid question alert... you have been warned.

Can someone clever fork the code and trigger the trap with a nice little log file to record the fallout without the Nxt universe imploding? Post the results of the log file here then all the other clever bods can figure out what the final fatal flaw is and net themselves 100,000 Nxt IIRC (probably collectively).

We know more about the code, TF is understood and implemented (I presumed TF isn't implemented yet because we haven't figured out the final flaw?) and we all party like it's 1440.

Possible?


2638  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information on: March 06, 2014, 01:35:55 PM
What for?

Not everyone can process 1000 tps.

please stop talking about 1000 tps, it is wishfull thinking from BCNext.

Pinarello, Nxt as a decentralized platform could become huge, not (only) as a currency. Imagine, we have zero fees.

Ah, right...

We should activate the incentive and fee discussion again Grin

Upped.

Here I wrote about it Smiley
