The new 1.4.7 nxt wallet got me irritated, busy for a week now to get it running. Can't believe they don't make an easy downloadable and good functioning wallet.
Now having my NOXT on poloniex waiting for poloniex to get out of business, like what happened to 3 other exchanges were I held my coins.

well i guess now i know for sure i am not getting my noble back.

About the NobleCoins at MintPal, there was about 108 millions left, which were withdrawn/dumped on the 21/22 december.

Below is the balance history of the guesstimated MintPal wallet (through blockchain taint):



Raw figures from the chart http://pastebin.com/fapqwwFY

The MintPal wallet is now at less than 50k (https://chainz.cryptoid.info/nobl/wallet.dws?9qsYVusfbVxXi9rAFeky2kgJbMH23Z8sUw.htm)

Rofo or anyone else, if you want more details, just ask.

Note that a similar pattern occurred for GroestlCoin, the MintPal GRS wallet was "emptied" of 9 millions GRS on the 23 december, which were dumped on PoloniEx (blockchain taint analysis and PoloniEx market history are unambiguous for GRS).

sould I burn my NOBLE to NOXT?

Is there a list of all the coins that are based on NXT?

I know a few that are. There is NeXT Horizon (NHZ), NAS, Bilshares (BILS), NXT Fair Distribution (NFD), FIMKrypto (FIMK), and BURST. NHZ and NAS are fairly straightforward NXT clones. Bilshares is probably a Chinese NXT clone and there seems to be very little information about it on the web. FIMKrypto is a NXT clone for Finland. And BURST removes the proof-of-stake features of NXT and replaces it with an unusual proof-of-capacity mining scheme.

Then you have coins like NEM, NODE, and Crypti which seem to have been either inspired by NXT or were originally meant to be NXT forks but their devs changed their mind.

Finally, you have Qora which share a lot of qualities with NXT and was initially suspected of being a NXT clone until it went open source. Even more confusing is Ora which was originally meant to be a fork of Qora in the form of Kora but which later changed its name and became a coin built on top of the NXT monetary system.

Are there any others that I'm missing?

EDIT: I just found another one called STAG although the coin seems to be down at the moment. It looks like there are quite a few more that I've missed.

Remaining BTC Portion Destroyed

321,428 of 500,000 NOXT were sold from the BTC portion. I've destroyed the remaining 178,571 (17.8%) by sending them to the genesis account - NXT-MRCC-2YLS-8M54-3CMAJ (can be viewed and confirmed in Asset Distribution).

NOBL Burning Process

1. Send me a PM with the amount of NOBL you are burning right now and the address you are sending them from (before sending any).
2. In the PM include your NXT Account ID (Address, for example mine is NXT-LSM7-9TLV-TZPB-FLB5T). This could be a NOXT deposit address you have generated on Poloniex if you choose. This is where I will send the NOXT.
3. Send your NOBL to this address to burn (destroy/make unspendable): 9T6fgHG3unjQB6vpWozhBdiXDbQp3P7F8M (read why here).
4. Once I confirm the NOBL has been sent to the address I will send 10 NOXT to your address as a test and PM you to confirm you received it OK.
5. Once confirmed by you I will send remainder of NOXT to your address.
6. I will be doing it in daily batches and applying checkpoints/force updates to the NOBL wallet if necessary, so no funny business.

Only if you've PM'd me so far can I now confirm a burning spot. We've reached the cap of removing 700 million NOBL from circulation.

Example of exchange rate:


Most people bought well above this exchange rate, so I don't think there are going to be many quick flips for profit all things considering. Personally I don't think it's worth it, but giving a heads up regardless.

If I've missed anything important point it out to me.

As a long term Noble holder - with a fairly substantial amount - should I be burning Noble to receive Noxt? I must confess to having been away from this scene for a while and have no real clue as to what is going on. I have been following Rofo on Twitter and retweeting Noble news, but with regards to what I should do as a holder of Noble, I'm less clear.

Update

Adios! Just kidding.

Thanks for the patience and support. I'm still surprised at how much I learnt even after a year of how people want to do business behind the scenes with coins. Was quite insightful.

Some things:
- I will not be focusing on the remaining whitepaper until I get three pillars (see below) finalized - too much info. and not widely read. Also, the new Australian paper on BTC and legalities will allow me to rework and double check everything.
- Bear in mind we will have traders who did not want to buy during crowdfund trying to get in lower (history tells them to expect a dump, presumably from myself)
- We will also have traders who want to take some easy profit from NOBL>NOXT>BTC burn. You might have an opportunity to get some lower. However the majority of burners will not want out at this price. I know because I spent a month doing nothing but discussing and getting to better know personally a lot of people.

If you've noticed I've gone silent, I got very tired of trying to sell NOXT by having to promise pump targets, promise free money, give free coins, give pump group info. (assuming there was one), etc. rather than discuss the project itself. I have put my head down in the real world to deliver what is described below. I would just like to be a little personal and say NOXT also cost me my long-term partner (I'm human might be hard to believe sometimes, I worked too hard, failed her and it cost me). So once the 100BTC barrier was reached I had no need for more, didn't want to feel like a pushy dodgy salesman, and just wanted to get to real work and spend the next 12 months building something that makes up for it. What this means is a lower market cap and room for growth, I don't need any more BTC. If I haven't responded to PMs you should receive them shortly with how to burn, addresses, etc.

What I'm doing immediately  and expect fully 'operational' this month:
Delivering what I'm calling the 'three early pillars' of this project
1. The registered Australian business providing consultancy and crypto services charged in NOXT, with an early introductory out to potential clients
2. Second-hand licensing and development allowing precious metals and diamond trade on the new revamped marketplace
3. Business development and marketing plan to present to real-world industry representatives, potential partners and investors

There will also be information coming about the NobleTrade platform in development, services, the gift card website and NoblePay.

Please allow me to get together the final raised and all the PMs I got about burning, and I will get in touch with everyone with addresses and we'll burn the NOBL to NOXT over the next few days.

Whatever happens to the price in the short-term as people hustle I'm only going to say this once. I care about the value of NOXT, but my focus this time is on delivering what is outlined, not posting assurances on daily-weekly price movements or defending accusations.

Happy NYE everyone. 2014 taught us a lot about crypto. and this is the first step to building both NOBL & NOXT.

I'm not going to waste my whole vacation digging through the "white paper". I actually did read through the first ten pages or so a few weeks ago, and didn't see anything substantial, just this oft repeated mantra of being a business friendly crypto backed asset.

I was simply asking what is the benefit of using a nxt asset tied to a low market cap clone coin rather than a company or individual starting their own nxt/bts/xcp asset. If you can't explain the core concept of something in a few sentences, it might just be too convoluted or unnecessarily complex. Thanks for your suggestion to read the white book, maybe someone else can offer a succinct explanation.
