is there not an API to generate a token? All Ive ever seen on this is from the GUI client

Nope, my colleague is unavailable as well. But with this reward I'm sure you'll be able to find someone.
Best,
Ittay Oh well. I did thank him for his time. after I got this |

Thank u. Keep us updated, plz.
From Ittay just now: I'm afraid I won't be able to do the code review for you. I would have to learn the details of the elliptic curve algorithm you're using, and I won't have enough time for that in the near future. I'll try and send you a name of someone who'd be perfect for the job (if he's interested, I'm waiting for his response).
Nevertheless, I thank you for the offer, and I would be glad to advise on the distributed aspects of your protocol, if you are interested at some point. Looking forward to seeing a white paper with the details of your architecture. I'm very glad to see novel cryptocurrency with actual innovation over Bitcoin.
Best,
Ittay Well, hopefully his guy will work out. At the very least, we've most likely got the academics and professional community talking about NXT now. will let you all know if this other guy he is referring will work out |

are we on forks now? Yesterday I updated my home forging client to 0.5.7 and earlier this AM all my home flrging client and all my VPS which were still 0.5.6e were all in agreemment on latest block.
I just upgraded all my VPSs and now things look all forked up

Any news regarding Nxt crypto-algo audit?
I just emailed Ittay to ask him if he thought he would be able to do it or not: Ittay, Can you please let me know if you plan on doing this work? We would like to know if we need to find someone else; you are our first choice but we would like to know if we need to search elsewhere.
Thanks! reply: Yeah, sorry, I'll get back to you today either way.
Best,
Ittay |

i got the same thing. I removed the Xms and Xmx options to see how well that works |

OK, so I have a VPS that has a DNS PTR record for reverse DNS with info matching the DNS A record entry corresponding to the IP address. I have the DNS name in the myAddress field, and the hallmark was created with the DNS name for the host field.
Why does a getMyInfo request from this VPS to other peers always just show IP address? Shouldnt it show the DNS name?

Simpler seems better to me. The more requirements, the more complicated, the longer to get it working right.
I think there will be (is?) a bidding process for space in the forged block. As long as the bidding is based on NXT per byte used in the blockchain, then it won't matter if it is for transaction, AM, AS, etc. Mission critical items will need to bid higher, best efforts can use minimum fees, etc. I think it makes sense for the client to dynamically change the fee paid if something doesn't get into the blockchain. The core protocol should use some sort of universal metric to determine what goes in or out, NXT/byte seems logical.
There might be some EBS (emergency broadcast system) payloads that always make it, but not sure how to make it spamproof.
I'm all for simplicity. Regarding transaction size: yes there will be a bidding war, and the forging node has an incentive to consider transaction size when deciding which transactions to include and which to exclude. It's aim is to push a block which includes whatever collection of transactions maximises its own fees. But it has no incentives to take TTL into account, and so unless the network imposes some hard rule with arbitrarily-chosen fees (e.g. 0.0001 nxt per day) why would a client not always opt for the maximum TTL? IMO the protocol should be modified to allow the network to enforce a transactionFee/transactionBiteSize ratio, rather than let a forging node use whichever transactions maximize its fees. I say forget about TTL. Let it sit till checkpoint, like NXT transfers do. Just enforce a transactionFee/transactionBiteSize ratio. Unfortunately I believe this is much harder said than done. Edit: may be easiest to enforce a 1-size-fits-all strategy to prevent spamming/bloat: Determine the smallest-transaction-type-size-in-bytes and set its fee to X, then find out the total transaction size of the largest possible AM and find the byte size multiplier between the 2, and multiply the fee of the smallest-transaction-type-size-in-bytes by that multiplier to determine the fee for any sized AM |

CfB, I have a lot of experience with SVM predictors. Basically given training data and answer, it can produce pretty accurate predictions. Overfitting can be controlled by special constant, so the smallest factor that gives acceptable prediction result is usually a good compromise. Unlike NN that take forever to train when there are a lot of inputs, the SVM can handle almost arbitrarily large feature set. Millions of features can be used. Prediction is a simple dotproduct of feature vector with linear model. I think here is finally a technical part of NXT I can really contribute to! Just need to develop a set of features and zombie/not-zombie categorization for each set of features. James Great. Post in that thread, plz. Can't. Login didn't work. Asked to reset password, still waiting on email. Any chance of having thread on nxtcrypto? James nextcoin seems to be down right now. Ive created the Project Kharon Forum & Thread at https://forums.nxtcrypto.org/viewforum.php?f=56 |

I believe 32K, which can hold 255 transactions, much fewer AM. Cost of AM at 1 NXT seems to be a bargain considering the space in the blockchain it uses.
If we say each block is worth 255NXT for 255 transactions or around 30NXT for AM, that makes AM almost 10 times cheaper. I strongly suggest AM cost of 0.01 is a disaster. It is long term storage in blockchain, distrubuted, redundant, etc.

Offloading off this thread, I believe Ive good a pretty good scheme over here: https://forums.nxtcrypto.org/viewtopic.php?style=1&f=17&t=587#p2631(get rid of that "style=1&" in there if you want to use the default nxtcrypto forum theme. I dont like the default as in I get more real estate efficiency by preempting the theme type in there.) |

Some thoughts on fees.
I had earlier posted some thoughts on making fees different depending on the size of the amount transferred, but now have different thoughs, since we also have to include aliases and AM and other transaction types.
Im putting some items together, but can someone please break down the blockchain and blocks vs transactions for me?
Is my assumption correct that every block is always the same size? Or perhaps the size can vary but zeros are prepended to make all blocks the same size?
Im thinking size may vary since you can have losts of transactions per block. but where can I go to get this info?
Edit: OK I see that size of a block can vary....
OK what are the max number of transactions per block? Is this fixed or are there ideas for changing it in the future? Whats the max size of a transaction?

That's funny, NxhChg.com says to users that if they have problem they should ask me. I've been contacted by such a user. I think if users don't know where to deposit the coins to I could give them my own NXT/BTC account number, is it a good idea?  I think you should make a separate account for this and have them all put fees in it and then make the owner of the exachange pay you for the service of supporting his customers and for transferring the NXT to the exchange account. I would make it painful for this behavior. I wish I could say I cannot believe this but I can. Just like how someone reposted Anon136's article but put their donation account on it instead of Anon136's |

Is anyone offering the service of creating an altcoin based on the algorithm of Nxt?
I'm launching a coin based on Nxt soon. It will use AM and Nxt blockchain. Sources will be written in JavaScript and completely open. ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=415580.0) lol, you mean completely open to russian readers? |

trying to keep the rifraff out?

Dont worry this is just for me to set up in a testlab, I wont spam it on BCT.org at all - just trying to learn Ive been following http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=scrypt_altcoin_cloning_guide and have pretty much got it all down for the most part or so I thought. Im at the stage getting close to 2/3 of the way down that page checking the testnet with 2 machines but both of their debug.log files show the same thing: connect() failed after select(): Connection refused Both are to runing with options "-testnet -connect=IP_OF_OTHER_MACHINE" Now it looks like foobar is gone, so I was forced to use smallchange's git since thats what the author recommended. I went and changed all the paraeters it specified, and also port numbers, and went through steps to generate a merkleroot and then the genesis, and thats the point Im at now with the 2 clients trying to connect. Any help? https://github.com/ARFComCoin/ARFComCoin |

wow, yeah, seems a bit like a logo design it worth more than 1000NXT. although if the price keeps dropping...

I agree, but a guy like Steve would also look at it form an academic perspective and we could reward additional Nxt (which I will do personally if he accepts the task) on top of the BTC. He wouldn't be doing it for the money but more out of academic interest.
regardless of who we pick or who pick us, Utopianfuture brought up the suggestion of coordination with the reviewer and our devs. also on whether or not we'd like to commission them to solve any issues discovered? C-f-B, what do you think, how far are you willing to take this as far as cooperation and answering questions from the auditor? I can provide access for you and your team as well as with which ever auditor does the work to have a private forum in which to work in. JLP is currently the only developer with access to the private dev forum at forums.nxtcrypto.org so the group doing this work is more than welcome to use that resource |
