I was wondering what "inscrutable" means:

in·scru·ta·ble  [in-skroo-tuh-buhl]  Show IPA
adjective
1.
incapable of being investigated, analyzed, or scrutinized; impenetrable.
2.
not easily understood; mysterious; unfathomable: an inscrutable smile.
3.
incapable of being seen through physically; physically impenetrable: the inscrutable depths of the ocean.



You sure this is the kind of butler you would want?

I wish there was such the line:

We haven't had that spirit here since 1969 1984

And she said: "We are all just prisoners here of our own device"
And in the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast

Sounds cool, I like what u wrote MadCow

it had $60m not a long time ago, before people lost a good share of their trust and got out / left

If u want to make money in crypto, train's like Auroracoin et al make u. NOT Nxt. UNLESS you are INITIAL investor. Then you made a shit load of money indeed.

MANY DO NOT UNDERSTAND that Nxt is not a good investment. It's a good EXPERIMENT of DEVELOPMENT (in a close cult so far)

Thanks for your vote of confidence in me.  I will never turn down a "stock option" in NXT, but I think there are a LOT of people that should receive a such a giveaway before I do.  

I think discussing / debating / arguing over who does get on a list of who gets cheap NXT if we succeed and who does not get on that list would pretty much start a war we do not need.  This would be another attempt to "reward" and "motivate" people to participate in NXT.  Implying we need this is implying our original distribution was unfair and our current reward structure is inadequate.  I think a better way would be for whales to step forward and fund private ongoing contracting of key personnel.  This is why CfB is here and what is happening for James and Salsacz now (I think).  I believe we should continue this by lining up both new whale support and new Java programmers.  

NXT is currently the only 100% pure proof of stake cryptocurrency.  If you believe in it, buy stake in it.  That's how NXT works (at least for now).  As Worf says, today is a good day to buy.

No matter who is emule,what he said is the fact:NXT IS BEING DEAD.

Just received an email from the developer, he loves the idea and is very interested in the project!
There is now a highly skilled coder working on this project. For now, he has chosen to remain anonymous.
If he chooses to reveal his identity, that's his choice. I will be open about mine when the time comes as this project will be as 100% transparent as I can make it.

This project will be going ahead as of now.

I will bump this a few more times this week before an official announcement so any potentially interested parties can see it.

Seriously, this is not a project you will want to miss out on.

I'm working on that right now. Digital Goods Store that could be used to sell pornopics.

I second this motion.

Oh ricky, just to remind you: my guy is still coding his webshop modules for Nxt.
I had no news, but the first module should be ready this week
Will be for woocommerce in WP.

There are still people working on the 1.0 stuff, even though I also think it won't be the future, but it ís good for the "now".

I would give the option to James.

No, but I have some NXTs, so I'm a little interested in success of Nxt.

Aye, I became tired of all these useless discussions (what and how to do) and going to stick to the initial plan. I'll quit a little bit later (not on the 3rd of April), coz I can't complete all planned tasks by that date.

I am not working on TF at all - but I do think that CfB is going to proceed with it as originally planned.

NXT is decentralized. That means no center. No "leader"

There are a lot of developers working, both independently and cooperatively, on adding value to NXT and completing the core features.

TF is in progress. Parallel Chains is being prepared for. AT is in progress. Digital Goods Store is in progress. There are all the clients. There are all my projects. There are all the websites.

Just what "inertia" are people talking about??? To my knowledge, NXT has MORE developers and active projects than almost any other crypto. I am working on a NXT API development kit that does all the low level work so that people can easily add value by concentrating on the code that adds value, instead of dealing with the common low level issues.

Tools that help developers get stuff done quicker, will let new developers get stuff done quicker. I didnt have to get approval of this from any leader, I just decided to do it. Similarly, other devs can just do stuff without seeking approval from some central authority.

Has nobody understood what Adam Levine (of Lets talk bitcoin) said about NXT??? Whatever is going wrong, there is a lot going right with NXT.

I don't believe anybody is working on TF right now, and certainly not blockchain pruning.  I know Jean-Luc isn't.

Sorry about making less and less sense, these are crazy times.  

I don't believe anybody is working on TF right now, and certainly not blockchain pruning.  I know Jean-Luc isn't.  CfB is wrapping up and going to move on to whatever he thinks is more important to work on than NXT.  Everybody says BCNext/Ukigo has totally left the project, so HE isn't working on it.  THere's NOBODY ELSE doing core dev work, which is why HIRING / RECRUITING MORE OUTSIDE JAVA PROGRAMMERS (rather than dangling bounties in front of insiders) is the most important thing to do with the techdev fund.  

We were going to release open source code on April 4 in honor of that date in the novel 1984, but we've released open source a month early so THAT's not a big date anymore.  NCNext/Ukigo was going to release the "3rd part of the plan that explains TF" on the same date, but with him gone and open source out, I don't know what the hell we're waiting on or even if that will be released at all or if it will make any sense / difference if we do get to read it.  I can go back to numerous posts by CfB from less than 60 days ago saying April would be when TF was turned on and NXT would hit 1000 TPS and blow everybody out of the water.  Somewhere along the way that got dropped and I can't seem to get anybody interested in discussing why or how to get it back on track.  The time warp synchronization of many blocks to speed up transaction time is not magic, it's theoretically possible, but hard, requiring a lot of thought and discussion and understanding of network dynamics much more so than code.  TF is the main distinct advantage that NXT possibly could have over Bitcoin, yet nobody seems interested in it.  

These days we're all about giving away nodecoins and pool mining and NXTopia multi-user games and trading boobies while dropping the NXT user fees required to trade them.   My statement that we are ignoring the cryptocoin 1.0 fundamentals of NXT to our detriment stands, and I feel like the Ancient Mariner stopping the Wedding Guest to say crazy things over and over again  ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rime_of_the_Ancient_Mariner ).   We ask people to support NXT but they (1) have a devil of a time logging into it (which admittedly Wesley's client is addressing), (2) stupidly lose it when they don't understand how important a 35 char passphrase is and scare off 2100 other potential new users with their tweets (3) get frustrated when they finally realize that PoS means they can't accumulate significant amounts of it for free, and (4) if they overcome all of the preceeding, can't spend or use NXT on anything in the Real World, as they increasingly can with Bitcoin.   So naturally we are moving right on to step (5) which is the whales are dumping it (and I've gotten private PMs from some of them saying nobody acting on what I'm saying as being one of their main reasons why) and nobody from the outside is left to pick up the slack and buy it at a rate that keeps the price up.

Despite all this I do not regret my decision to invest big in NXT and I am HODLing.  Probably all the way down, just like the Ancient Mariner in the whirlpool.  I am relatively new to cryptos and after much research I am still convinced that NXT is a technically superior product to Bitcoin in many ways and will ultimately take on many of its roles.   We have talented people doing incredible work.  We have flaws we are willing to acknowledge and work on and fix.  Most of all we have a coherent community - but it is smaller and more fragile than you may think.  We only had 250 people vote on our committees.  We had a recent study that did a very good K analysis on our account structure and conclude we've only got 800-1000 true users holding what would be considered significant and usable amounts of NXT.  

This is all great, even FANTASTIC, for a cryptocurrency that is only four months old.  But we must not forget Gordon Gekko's  famous words from "Wall Street" - You done good, but you gotta keep doing good.  What we have accomplished in four months teeters in the balance over what we will do in month five.  Or month six.  Or seven.

What is our next big accomplishment we are going to announce to trumpets and fanfare?  Cryprocurrency 2.0 Asset Exchange?  OK.  Forget even arguing about the relative number of people who want to trade OTHER coins among themselves while speculating instead of trade NXT coins for goods while shopping.  Somebody tell me how the intro of NXT AE will cause a sustained upward trend in our coin price and market cap.  The way we've got it structured, a guy who buys 10 NXT from Cryptsy can get as much use from the NXT AE as a guy that buys 100K NXT, since we've dropped the  price per transaction to 0.01 NXT and are pushing nodecoins and not NXT itself as the main draw to trade on the AE anyway?   AE DOES NOT GIVE ANYBODY ANY REASON TO BUY A LARGE STAKE IN OUR PROOF OF STAKE CURRENCY WHEN THEY CAN UTILIZE ITS PRIMARY AE FEATURE WHILE OWNING VERY LITTLE STAKE.

So...what's next after AE?

If somebody can come up with a better plan that a return to actually focusing upon and implementing TF / time warp / block speedup / transaction capacity increase, let's hear it.  Those were the things that were exciting about NXT in the beginning, the things we talked about much more than Secret Twitter and Secret Internet on parallel blockchains, the thing that represents new tech we have to offer over Bitcoin, that offes a huge improvement by PoS over energy-wasteful, slow, inefficient PoW.  

Change of topic.  If NXT is serious about becoming bigger than Bitcoin, we need NXT whales that are cashing out to use their cold hard cash to set up a legally incorporated NXT-fiat exchange in the United States by getting money service and money transfer licenses in all 50 States - STARTING NOW.  This will take time and cash and plenty of both.  START NOW.  Etherium started down this path and blinked and are now moving to set up shop in Switzerland to avoid this hassle.  This leaves NXT an opportunity - START NOW.  This is the only way to get as big as Bitcoin, which is vulnerable and reeling from the arrest of Charlie Sherm and his failure to do this right ( http://time.com/1892/bitinstant-ceo-charlie-shrem-arrested-for-alleged-money-laundering/ )  Anon's proposed NXT-silver exchange is an interesting experiment but it is an attempt to get around having to play the big boy game for all the chips on the table with cold hard raw cash.   IF NXT is the future of Crypto, we have to step up to the plate.  Or the soccer net.  Or whatever the right sports metaphor is.  

Most of all, we need people to come up with a way to have a guy with a cellphone to buy a candy bar with an app that is backed by NXT.  And lots and lots and LOTS of websites and storefronts that say "NXT accepted here".

If all of this, or at least some of this, doesn't make sense, well, I don't know what else to say.

need node please!
