That is just frigging hideous.....looks like the more traditional financial scammers are starting to use crypto, instead of selling snake oil, timeshare or crappy 'investments'.
Two basic rules of not being scammed:
If you are told that you need to bring more people in to the program in order to maximise your own investment, you're in a pyramid scheme.
Don't fall for the flash parties. Who's paying for them ? Yeah...it's you.

If you're running Windows, try this: https://nxtforum.org/nrs-releases/nrs-v1-5-10/msg181836/#msg181836Integrated Windows installer.... Otherwise, simply install the latest 1.5.11 (as above, my previous post), let the blockchain download, and log-in. You won't need to get busy on the command line.....theres a nice .bat or .sh file to do the work. The latest client also allows you to toggle between logging in to simply view your account, and a full log-in with your pass phrase if you want to actually do something. And, yep, your old NRS client is now toast, anything older than 1.5.x is no longer valid. On the wait time: are you referring to waiting for the 1440 confirmations that will allow you to forge with your NXT balance ? There are no other possiblities that I can think of........tx id would be useful, to have a better look. |

PayExpo 2015 is billed as the UKs largest payment industry event, and NXT is there as the Cryptocurrency sponsor. The event runs for tomorrow and Wednesday, 9th and 10th June. NXT has a booth and a 6 man promo team at the event. For the first time, after NXTs successful sponsorship of last years PayExpo, there will be a Cryptocurrency and Payments workshop programme, which will help to spread the word about not only NXT, but about the vast potential of crypto-currencies in general. Stay tuned for further news, here is the NXT brochure/mini-magazine for the event:

Even though most exchanges had already updated to the latest version, some had issues with forking around the block 445,000 point......just to make things more confusing, some of the block explorer sites also had issues with forking, making verification of the correct blockchain more difficult. In this situation, it's a lot better for an exchange to freeze deposits/withdrawals until they are certain that their transactions are being included in the main blockchain. Most node operators and services are now running smoothly, so given a day or 2, everyone should be back on the right track. To help keep us on that track, there is a new NRS update 1.5.11: https://nxtforum.org/nrs-releases/nrs-v1-5-11/Now that the 1.5.x branch is established as the main blockchain, this version will no longer connect to nodes running the deprecated 1.4.x versions (or even older....) If you want to verify your blockchain, use the following block explorers: http://nxtportal.org/blocks/ https://www.mofowallet.com/launch.html#/activity/nxt/blockchain/latest https://nxtblocks.info/#section/blockexplorer_blocks |

How many confirmations does NXT need for a transaction to fully confirm? I sent some over 12 hours ago and it now has 528 confirmations, yet still doesn't show as fully confirmed. It doesn't seem viable for a currency for this to be normal. Is the network malfunctioning?
720 confirms for fully not rollback. Generally,10 confirms is enough. Wow. That's going to take close to a day to process a single transaction. Thanks for the info. Er, seems to be some confusion here...... 10 confirms is more than enough to be spendable, the 720 confirmations/blocks is the rollback limit coded into NXT: https://nxtforum.org/general/transaction-confirmations-best-practice/ |

@Trouble821: The 1.4.x and 1.5.x blockchains aren't immediately compatible with each other. You can either update your 1.4.x installation to 1.5.10, which will convert the old blockchain to the newer format, or start again with a clean 1.5.10 install. There is a copy of the 1.5.10 blockchain available on the PeerExplorer site, for a quick update. Just to add to your choices, there is also an integrated Windows installer available, for the easy install option. Here are the links: NRS 1.5.10: https://nxtforum.org/nrs-releases/nrs-v1-5-10/NRS 1.5.10 (Windows installer) https://nxtforum.org/nrs-releases/nrs-v1-5-10/msg181836/#msg181836Quickstart blockchain download: http://www.peerexplorer.com/(Bottom of page: Download Nxt Blockchain ) |

Er, no, he's not. Really, you can probably trust me on this........ But jl777 also isn't a shill for the 1%, he has a genuine commitment to the ideals of crypto-currency, even when those ideals could get in the way of a quick buck or an easier life. Check out his contributions to the current debate within Nxt about potential illegal listings ( a la Silk Road) on the Nxt Marketplace: https://nxtforum.org/general-discussion/how-to-filter-out-drugs-on-my-local-copy-of-the-marketplace/msg182339/#msg182339I trust the guy, mostly. He seems genuine and competent. Of course, he could still break bad at any moment, but so could anyone...... |

I tried to beg/borrow/steal a Tesla Roadster last year for use as a NXT promo vehicle, but Tesla had just stopped selling the Roadster, and had got rid of their promo fleet. But, heres some concept art:  Tesla (or any other car manufacturer) could certainly use blockchain tech to keep individual vehicle records, but I'm not sure that blockchain tech has any real advantages, as opposed to a centralised database. |

I can pretty much guarantee that backup.rar will contain a very nasty payload and absolutely no BTC.
Do not open......

I watch CMC religiously, (which results in me having heart failure every time NXT wobbles by 1%.....  ) Market cap isn't a perfect way to judge a crypto-systems success, but if does give a relatively good indication. Keeping an eye on the data from CMC also allows you to spot obvious scams....like ABC and its regular pump pattern, which is so obviously one big buy made at the same time each day, with no other demand. |

Love the nice regular pump pattern.......  |

Sounds cool.....you guys got any stats for the BURST campaign ?

Doh...hit a nerve there, eh ? Let's correct a couple more of your little untruths again:
You wrote this revisionism while reusing needles in your junkie den in Amsterdam or something? I guess you need something to do while waiting for your 50 million NXT to acquire more value.
Even you should know by now that I'm not an original stakeholder. I'm just smart enough to spot a winner when I see it. Nice bit of personal abuse, btw, and so original.
Of course keep engaging in revisionism - like that quotation from your hero, if you repeat a lie enough it becomes true. The story about John and all the thefts in NXT (which you claim never happened, LOL) are well documented on BTT and numerous websites. You do know in logical arguments that I don't have to prove your negative claim? Of course what is the standard for dialectics in the business and legal world is probably beyond your comprehension.
Yeah, the entire John story (and everything else to do with NXT) is well documented. So how come you can never back up any of your accusations ?
I was involved with the Coinbase GoCoin deal, and it was based on a genuine commitment from Coinbase GoCoin.
As I said in the last reply: if it was a fabrication, how come CoinBaseGoCoin never corrected it ? I seem to recall a Coinbase GoCoin exec on stage with John at the time of the announcement.....
Moving on, there have been 2 large scale thefts of NXT: Klees personal stash and BTER. Klee lost his via a compromised Dropbox account and poor password security, BTER lost their NXT wallet again because of poor password security. Maybe a dozen people have also lost NXT directly from their accounts because of poor password security.
I have to point out that most of these funds were recovered, and that there have been no thefts in a long time, ever since we started emphasising good password security.
Already people from NXT who admitted who has what in terms of addresses and nobody is adopting or using NXT, it's a $hitcoin full of scams and thefts and deceit. Anybody who even continues to associate themselves with NXT, given the history of criminality, is a psychological loony or a whale salvaging a windfall.
Hilarious, TS. Real balanced stuff.
It could just be that NXT has some of the best crypto tech available, growing adoption, a great community and committed devs. People recognise that, and base their support of NXT on a realistic estimation of the future prospects for NXT.
And, if anyone feels the need to see what the Hell this NXT stuff is all about, check out the newest NXT client: https://nxtforum.org/nrs-releases/nrs-v1-5-9/ And heres a newish NXT info site: http://www.nxtinfo.org/New NXT trading platform: https://www.nxthaus.com/New game utilising the Nxt blockchain: http://cointelegraph.com/news/114443/voxelnauts-a-minecraft-inspired-game-with-nxt-backed-property-rights-and-drmhttp://voxelnauts.com/Upcoming FinTech Conference, sponsored by NXT: http://www.payexpo.com/So, you can call NXT a $hitcoin if you like, but we are a very hard working one  EDIT: time for a swift bit of revisionism: for 'CoinBase' in the last few posts, please read 'GoCoin' TS got his facts wrong, and I followed him without noticing that particular cock-up. See: https://www.google.nl/search?q=cointropolis+nxt+coinbasefor all your research needs. |

Come on TS, you can do better than this....my replies are in blue. The last rebound / hurrah we saw in NXT was the result of John (the marketing guy) lying about NXT being added to CoinBase. So outside of the initial floor manipulation with Dgex and John's deceit campaign, has there ever been any reason for NXT to have a 8 figure capitalization? Probably not.
John M. wasn't lying about the Coinbase GoCoin adoption. We had a solid commitment from CoinBase GoCoin themselves to list NXT.
Otherwise, why would Johns announcement of the Coinbase GoCoin listing have had any effect at all ?
CoinBase GoCoin would have simply denied the announcement the next day if it wasn't true.
As it was, CB GC kept on delaying NXT implementation until it became obvious that they wouldn't meet their commitment.
It sucked, tbh, but it wasn't Johns fault.
If there are really only 1150 addresses with more than 10,000 NXT then user adoption, even by crypto world standards, has been a major failure over the past 1.8 years. This is contrasted with NXT's capitalization being a moderate success, despite the lack of adoption.
Or, we now have 1150 people who are seriously committed to their NXT investment, plus a completely unknown number of investors/speculators/traders keeping their NXT investment on exchanges. Could be worse.
There are many crypto currencies with a bigger and better distribution. It's indicative that nobody really wants NXT or, alternatively, they've read about the distribution, security incidents and technical issues and they're discouraged from adopting it.
NXTs distribution has been discussed a thousand times before, and right now, I'd say that after 18 months it's no longer relevant: we've seen several massive dumps into NXT markets, and NXT is still holding position in the top 10. Someone seems to want it.....
As for security incidents: there haven't been any. The NXT software and blockchain has run smoothly for 18 months with no security breaches. There have been thefts of NXT from exchanges, but that's been due to lousy security from the exchanges, not any fault of NXT itself.
Technical issues ? Everything works, TS, and pretty much always has. The Nxt devs have always been completely on the ball, and any bugs/issues get stomped on quickly.
The NXT network has been attacked many times, and has not been compromised yet. (Though the attack from Destroyer did halt tx processing for a couple of hours)
EDIT: Corrected stupid mistake: for 'CoinBase', read 'GoCoin' |
