Release 1.2.1e

https://bitbucket.org/JeanLucPicard/nxt/downloads/nxt-client-1.2.1e.zip

sha256:

678741b7caa1aaf355b4ab03ea40f59a63749e124d2aa780ef7c89c82e65426b  nxt-client-1.2.1e.zip


This is a development release for testing only. Source code is not provided.


Change log:

This release is still considered experimental, but is now enabled to run on main
net too. The DGS milestone block is set to 210000 for main net. A stable release
is expected before that, but all exchanges and websites should already start
trying the 1.2.1e release, because the upgrade to 1.2.2 stable will be mandatory
before block 210000.


Multiple bugfixes in DGS and Alias Transfer transaction validation. Restricted
some types of alias and DGS transactions to one per alias / DGS purchase per
block.

Alias sale transactions now use null recipient instead of genesis when the sale
is open to any buyer. Alias buy transaction uses amountNQT instead of priceNQT
parameter, as the price is being stored in the amount field anyway.

GetDGSGoods request now always skips delisted goods.

Improved handling of IPv6 addresses.

Improved the http://localhost:7876/test interface by adding support for tagging
of API requests in multiple categories. All http API requests are now classified
under separate tabs for easier navigation.

Reduced startup time by running in parallel the initial peer loading and address
resolution, and the initial blockchain scanning.

To improve database performance, transactions that do not have a recipient now
have null instead of the genesis account id as recipient in the transactions
table. Such transactions will also not have a recipient field in their JSON.

Added support for pagination to the getAccountTransactionIds API. The results
are now returned sorted by timestamp in descending order.

Added getAccountTransactions API also returning the full transactions json.

Refresh peer info for already connected peers every hour.

Call setReuseAddress(true) for all jetty ServerConnectors.

Refactoring of transaction attachment handling. Added support for transaction
versions and global options. Transactions will switch to version 1 at DGS block.

Added Message and EncryptedMessage attachments that can be attached to any
transaction types, and can have either text or binary content. All APIs that
create a new transaction now accept additional parameters to allow attaching
a Message or EncryptedMessage (or both). This removes the need for creating
new transaction types for encrypted messages or payments with messages.

After DGS milestone block, Asset Transfer transactions can no longer have a
"comment" field. Switch to using a plain text "message" attachment instead.

Added transaction attachment versioning. Transactions of version 1 and later
will have a version field in the attachment too, which allows future optional
changes to one attachment type only, e.g. adding expiration field to asset issue
attachment without having to add a new transaction type.

Added PublicKeyAnnouncement attachment. Those will be accepted after DGS block,
but only enforced after block 215000. After that block, transactions with
recipient account that does not have a public key will be required to have such
an attachment in order to announce and set the public key of the reciepient.
To add a PublicKeyAnnouncement, just add a "recipientPublicKey" parameter with
the hex-encoded public key string when sending the first transaction to that
account. It is harmless (but useless) to keep adding the same recipientPublicKey
for further transactions to the same account. But trying to set a different
public key for an account that already has a public key will result in rejection
of the transaction.

The getAccountId request can be used to get the public key for a secret phrase
(even when not yet announced to the blockchain).

Added first part of Economic Clustering - fork detection. After DGS block, each
transaction will include a reference to a recent blockId. For now this is used
only to detect forks, and transactions refering to a different fork are still
not rejected.

Next step of Transparent Forging will be enabled at block 215000: accounts that
miss their turn to forge will not be able to forge for the next one hour.

Updated jetty to version 9.2.2 and bouncycastle to version 1.51.

This release will cause a reset of testnet, deleting blocks and transactions
after block 117907.

Client Updates:

Redesign login page.

Multilingual interface. Some translations are incomplete and still considered
experimental.

Most forms now allow you to add an encrypted or public message to them.

Added public key announcement support.

Passphrase login length check.

Automatically enable certain features at DGS block.

Several DGS bug fixes.

343  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [WARNING] Nxt is a scam and I have PROOF on: July 30, 2014, 01:42:12 PM
Almost every post that mentions who are nextcoin developers mentions him too. So I would say he is pretty important developer hence the word leading

Yes, James is an important developer.
However, it needs to be clear he does not work on the core, and as such does not develop Nxt.

Also, he entered into Nxt at about the same time as I did, we work together on some projects (although I am not a dev) and we respect each other.

I find it strange that you attach so much importance to one article that just happens to support your claims, and choose to invalidate so much other arguments, even from people who also have been very closely involved in the project. They have as much a claim to knowledge on this as James, yet you portray them as some kind of fanboy. The only reason for this seems to be that they happen to disagree with you.

Also an observation on this:

That is true, most of my posts are jokes but not when it comes to nextcoin. I am simply irritated by its community that posts on almost every thread on this forum.

A page on bitcointalk contains 40 topics.
Even if you are just referring to the pages in the altcoin section, this would mean 160 topics where we supposedly post in, assuming only the first page is active.
I would contend that in this case you are just exaggerating.

Yes, we dó post when we see these posts about Nxt. I think your perspective is a bit skewed, because we tend to answer your posts on this subject, so we tend to be in most thread *you* post in. Smiley

Frankly, I don't care if people use Nxt or not. I do care about making a clear distinction between fact and assumption. I think that is far more important than any currency being adopted. I'd post about it even if I saw it within another community, íf I had the time Smiley
344  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [WARNING] Nxt is a scam and I have PROOF on: July 30, 2014, 01:16:35 PM
its known fact that people use more accounts and that account explorer doesnt mean anything.

I'm still waiting on your proof that 75% of Nxt is owned by 3-4 people.

"Coz James told me so" is no proof.

Well if you dont believe leading nextcoin developer then ok. I am not forcing you to believe it

Actually, I know James very well.

I just find it funny you are cherrypicking a "lead dev", who is actually a 3rd party dev that doesn't work on the core at all to support your conclusions. Cheesy
345  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [WARNING] Nxt is a scam and I have PROOF on: July 30, 2014, 01:10:14 PM
Nice way to turn me commenting on your line of arguing into something completely different.

No, I am not disputing the fact that many many many people have multiple wallets.
I have multiple wallets, too.

I am commenting on the conclusions you draw.

You make claims as if they are solid gold truth, yet the underlying arguments for these claims are much less solid than you present them: *that's* my problem!

Your distribution claim is based on an appeal to authority.
Your wallet conclusion is based on "I do it, so it must be true for the large stakeholders, too".

Let me reiterate: your concern for security is fine.
Your claims that a lot of the features in Nxt are also present in other systems are fine.

You will find no argument from me there, because both are valid and true. Security is paramount in crypto.
I don't share your apparent view that having the same features as other currencies is a bad thing, but that's not really a dividing line.

What amazes me is that for all that, you seem to feel the need to bash on a single small, and not very well documented argument, based on an article that can easily be disputed to make your concerns into fact.

I have yet to see any "fact" on distribution from you, apart from your reference to James' article.

I ask again: do you have anything else apart from: "James said it. I trust James." to back up your points on distribution?
346  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [WARNING] Nxt is a scam and I have PROOF on: July 30, 2014, 12:50:28 PM
Either I am on your ignore list, or you just refuse to answer my question: Do you, or do you not have facts to back up your assumptions about distribution.

Until the basis of your argument is solid, any further conclusions drawn from it are moot.

It's a basic methodology that cannot be ignored if you want to have a discussion that leads to valid conclusions.

I already answered that. My conclusions come from James word and I am pretty sure he knows all larger holders so his word is good enough for me.

Your methodology is false one, I my self own 4 nextcoin wallets and dont even have nextcoin. So how many wallets do those that have it have? You know yourself that very well

So it's an appeal to authority. Glad to have cleared that up.
That means there is no way to dispute your claims, as they are based on your choice to trust this authority, not on original research.
James himself admits in the article you so gladly selectively quote that his conclusions are based on a "guesstimate".
We're at least clear now on how solid the basis for your conclusions is.

Your second argument is just logically unsound.

Your syllogism goes thus:

Minor premise: I own 4 nextcoin wallets
Major premise: All of my wallets are empty
Conclusion: All large nextcoin holders hold multiple wallets
Addendum: you know I am right.

Um...?

348  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [WARNING] Nxt is a scam and I have PROOF on: July 30, 2014, 12:06:02 PM
I told you where I get that number. From James's mouth. Of course, it could be he is lying

Well, the problem here is that James in his article specifically states it's a "guesstimate", ie. he's not sure at all.
Yet you present it as a fact.

I have nothing against your argument about security. It's valid. I would, however, ask you not to present guesses as facts.
It doesn't help the discussion at all.

Do you have facts about this, or is it basically only based on what James has posted and you happen to agree?
349  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [WARNING] Nxt is a scam and I have PROOF on: July 30, 2014, 11:57:42 AM
Problem with POS currencies is not the distribution per se, but the fact that probably 3-4 people control 75% of network as in POS your stake determines your importance to network.

I would like to ask you to provide real numbers to support your "probably".
Where do you get the support for your assumption, as it is the linchpin of your argument.
As to this argument applied to Nxt, I have already answered this argument here a month ago: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=644641.msg7923811#msg7923811
Never got a real answer there, by the way.

Everyone agrees that a network with too few people supporting it isn't safe, so let's not discuss that point. It's true and we all know it.
However, you imply that you have proof positive that this is the fact for most PoS currencies.

If you have this: post it. Post it here and if it's true, it would be quite major news.

"probably" or quoting statements that are presented in the original articles as "guesstimates' don't cut it.

Wow I didn't know they were all working on decentralized crypto currencies

Are you suggesting that a tool that isn't used for something *cannot* be used for something?
Scientific progress under your leadership would be quite a thing to see Smiley
351  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will EXO destroy Nxt, NEM, Node aka java crap? on: July 30, 2014, 10:28:17 AM
I stopped reading when the analogy of "master race" and "peasants" was made.

If you can't even make a internally consistent analogy, there is little chance for a consistent argument Smiley

Anyway: upcoming Digital Goods Store in the new Nxt release, by the way Smiley
If people know of Indie musicians or game developers, have them have a look at it.
It's a great way to take distribution into their own hands.
On the 15th of August Sinan Boom is going to launch their new EP on it: https://soundcloud.com/sinan-bom
Do them a favour and buy it.
352  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [WARNING] Nxt is a scam and I have PROOF on: July 30, 2014, 10:10:07 AM
I love how on the one hand OP feels the needs to make a "WAKE UP" thread, apparently for the benefit all the "Nxt shills" and then contintues to slag off the "Nxt shills".

Now I know Oscar Wilde has said consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative, but that's quite a leap of imagination there Smiley

I also love how you claim "FACTS" (sic) and then don't present them. Ah well. If you ever find your conclusive "proof", I'd like to see it.

Anyway: upcoming Digital Goods Store!

Guys:
Just ran across this:
Hey everyone,

We have had quite a bit of interest in our Coin Representative program thus far, but we still need more participation.  At this point, we have Representatives from over 10 currencies, and some currencies actually have up to 3 representatives (which will likely be our limit).

Coin Brief's Coin Representative program is a system we are building to give members of the various digital currency communities a voice to present the positive points, advances, technical details, news, etc. about their currency of choice.  Coin Brief's staff is working to cover as many currencies as we can, with a focus on Bitcoin, but it would be impossible for us to adequately understand, explain, and write about every digital currency that exists.

If you would like to be a representative for a digital currency, and are an active member of that community, or just would like to know more about the Coin Representative program, please check out these pages:  
http://coinbrief.net/coin-brief-needs-coin-reps/
http://coinbrief.net/coin-brief-coin-representatives/
http://coinbrief.net/coinreps/rules/

If anyone has any questions, or would like to apply, please contact me on here via PM or email Coin Brief at contact@coinbrief.net

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=714604.0

Anyone who isn't me or Damelon want to check this out/sign up as NXT representative?

joefox already is doing this Smiley

Hi All,

I want to register on nxtforum.org. But I don't get a confirmation mail,  I've tried with different mailprovider/adresses.

I would like to contact an Admin via PM, is a nxtforum admin on this site ?

cheers

Please contact me with your details, and we'll sort it out Smiley

What also might help is letting the client run without opening the browser directly.

Hey, Damelon. This should be in original post under clients

https://trade.secureae.com/

as it's fully featured client that does local signing without sending password to server (according Wesley) so is safe to use.  Plus it's a "lightweight" client that doesn't require downloading the blockchain

Added it in. Let me know if it need to be worded differently Smiley

How i can trade bitcoin on next client? deposit with multigateway, and than is an asset for trading, or i must create them?  Undecided

You cannot trade them directly in the client.
For this you need to use the Multigateway, which is not a core feature, but a service built on top of Nxt.
