821  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information on: March 12, 2014, 10:03:16 PM
This paper was posted in another forum.
"It Will Cost You Nothing to 'Kill' a Proof-of-Stake Crypto-Currency"
http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2393940

It basically says that with a pump and dump scheme someone could acquire 51% of NXT and control the blockchain.

NXT is immune to a 51% attack and to over a 90% attack due to transparent forging? Is it not?

his last words were - we are waiting one week to collect any objections (like when voting code was also sent to Kattywampus, who is also CoinTropolis_NiftyNikel or to PeercoinEnthusiast, who is also CoinTropolis_JustaBitTime) (- but these voted once.)

I am reviewing a huge theses about Nxt from the economics, but still, there are topics we would like to have written and prepared for journalists and publishers. I am already in contact with one Forbes guy.. Smiley


the free topics for Nxt articles still are:

- Solar energy, Raspberry

- Nxt as a national currency, casinos, all kinds of asset exchanges, Kickstarters, Charities

- Gaming currency

- Transparent forging, Zerocoin, other tech features, decentralized exchanges...

- Nxt invites altcoins to host on it's blockchain

- Can be a new internet stored on Nxt's blockchain / DNS system?

Have you got any idea about some other article? Share it. We want to invite more developers and university people

We would like to have more infographics, but please consult the topics here, if you want to make any Smiley
see: http://wiki.nxtcrypto.org/wiki/Pictures

I will be rebuilding wiki, but still if you have any idea what should be there, just post it here and I will copy it

mastercoin community is virtually non-existent? :/ http://mastercointalk.org/index.php?PHPSESSID=089oprtopcfe7q5tq2sdojvq56&
trying to find info about it is a bitch... :/

at least we can copy asset ideas:

Quote
Businesses using user-created tokens:

1) Airlines - transferable flyer miles create a more dynamic and fluid market for airline tickets, hard nut to crack but an obvious one, supply is created by the airline's economists/consultants and destroyed when redeemed for tickets. You just need to convince one airline.

2) Game companies - most game companies that rely on microtransactions go through the Google or Apple payment gateway and lose 30% of their revenue, but those companies can't regulate how they change their own game data-base when a blockchain transaction is recognized. I can email several people I know in both the indie and social game sectors to see how interested they would be in trying a transferrable, higher margin currency for their premium game content.

3) NGO's could use these coins to try and kickstart economic activity in regions where they are operating, Auroracoin style, a bit of a long-shot but the PR and actual economic upsides are huge. I don't have such a large contact list in this segment but it's worth going through a DB of NGOs doing development work in underbanked regions and cold-emailing them.

There are also “2nd generation”cryptocurrencies claiming to have been built independent of Bitcoin, one of the most prominent being Nxt.

Coin2 is only speculation and words. Another coin more that will die soon, all of us know that. That's my personal opinion
If you mine the coin, there is no community, just some guys who mine the coin and then sell it. But if you somehow premine the coin, you need the community to distribute the coin then. So while the mined coin without community support dies easily, premined coins with supporting community survive
831  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: **[ANN]**[NEW]*Coin2(C2) - the forward thinking altcoin with a plan. on: March 12, 2014, 12:11:06 AM
you can use fingerprints and the national database for fair distribution Smiley But if Facebooks were checked, then it should be fine. I have acces only to 6 old Facebook accounts with real friends, photos, etc
I will send you 100 C2.  Is that fair? Wink
you can send 10 to test the Bittrex wallet, they say it is fast, so let's see: SJ6nkG2Ezqd2gSoFfWSyGrS6uuZBB7AsiJ

Nxt and Premine are low today and they cannot be mined, so it should be instabuy Smiley

I am a scientist, I will be speaking at the Bitcoin conferences about various topics, I wrote this 30 pages theses where one chapter is about distribution - https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwAGADgnQcrtM3g1cU1VSHZtTGM/edit - and I created this infographic about distribution - https://i.imgur.com/qg336Xb.png . I had same questions in PMC and NEM topics and I will have same questions in new similar cryptos. I don't care about the trolls here, I simply want to present the facts, when I will be comparing the premined altcoins distribution and present it to public in Bitcoin events and in crypto scientific papers

Maybe I am blind or not good in english, but I never criticised coin2, however you criticised me many times here. But I don't write about crypto-trolls, I write about the facts about cryptos

Nxt is still a baby... no rush I think

I did actually say big problem, not that it didn't happen. Some people are inherently
greedy unfortunately, so there will always be some that take advantage!

Is there more, possibly but I think it's a small percentage.


these accs were probably merged so it will be seen in the blockchain explorer, if someone gathered 500.000 coins from his 10 accounts. Thanks for the first non-trolling answer
837  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: **[ANN]**[NEW]*Coin2(C2) - the forward thinking altcoin with a plan. on: March 11, 2014, 01:36:21 PM
Sockpuppets you say? people had to get them through facebook. So I doubt
very much that was a big problem with Coin2!

It was a problem, look at this guy:

- all new with one activity - to fake the distribution based on Facebook accs

PMC distribution = 5 hours
Coin2 distributin = 5 days
Nem distribution = 25 days
Nxt distribution = 50 days between September 28 and November 16

Nxt is still most fair thanks to the longest IPO Smiley

Except Coin2 was given to 1000 people, and NXT was most certainly not
in terms of distribution within the IPO with less than 100!
it doesn't matter, but a chance was given to 200.000 people on Bitcointalk and they had 2 months for it. Nem was quite fair, but still too short IPO. Coin2 was limited only to 1000 (sockpuppets). Still PMC was also quite fair thanks to superfast distribution, so there was no time for sockpuppets Cheesy

Because of the success of NXT, NEM needed only 25 days.

In 25 days there we're more people interested in NEM (~2500 people) than NXT which needed 50 days (73 people).

But the real success will not about the 'Fair' distribution. It is about what comes next. Innovation, marketing and a good community.
At this moment is NXT the best with those
.
Sockpuppets you say? people had to get them through facebook. So I doubt
very much that was a big problem with Coin2!

I just wanted to add to salsacz posts, just because C2 was distributed within 5
days isn't the full story when 1000 people were given them.

It's not just the time but how many people actually received a share.

And I agree Nxt is at the top of the tree. No one here will disagree on that point
with the development and innovation!

I am here to get the raw data about initial distribution. I present it here so others can have constructive comments, if some of my data are wrong.

So C2 is:

Coins were distributed in 5 days to 1000 wallets based on Facebook accounts

- is there anything more to add?
