Hi again! Say me please do we need motiongraphic like this?
It could be very useful for attaching to some article about nxt for example. Also it could be good promo of nxt for the people who still don't know about nxt.
Moreover we could make more promos like that motiongraphics about many new features of nxt (new clients, colored coins etc)

If you can say yes then don't pass by. Don't think that somebody other except you will support that.
I need your help to finish that work. Join to the discuss in original topic.

We still need to think about spread nxt into  the mass!

You might want to post that in the Marketing thread, too

this thread with superb ideas and discussions

I would guess that the article and the fact that everything shows up red in the coin charts while Nxt is majorly in the green are good reasons.

We're being noticed and are losing the "scam" stigma.

967  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: from ireland to papua new guinea with NXT on: February 14, 2014, 02:51:58 PM
nice. the first step would be contacting companies to accept nxt as a payment. I paid a hotel by Bitcoins thanks to CheapAir.com. This and other such companies should accept nxt payments. But we need to publish payment applications for such companies. SO after bitpay implementation to nxt and after we have nxt payment plugins for websites, we will be able to pay for hotels and travelling with Nxt

Anyone know how Bitpay reduces the volatility risk?

Plans for first payment module and underlying system will probably be here end of the weekend.

It is definitely bad in the short term :/

BTC is plummeting again, although not as much as it has.

However, we are nowhere close to being available to "general public" for at least a while now.

The crypto communities will on the other hand be interested in alternatives, which is good for Nxt.

Hopefully, instead of a blaming fest, this will turn to a more positive thing. I fear the blaming fest, however.

Finally got the designers together, but there is a bit of a shitty personal delay for one of them.

One of them (my friend) has just lost two friends who drowned in a boating accident in Ireland, so he is shattered at the moment.

He was professional enough to set me up with his two collegues and we will get to work on some plans to use with upcoming conferences etc.

I hope to post some results here soon, as I realise that time is of the essence. I hope my mate will be OK. Just hearing the news made my blood run cold.

I hear the people in this topic have decided to switch to a 0.1 Nxt fee?  I've done some math and that would be only be enough to allow use to break even if we had ~50 forgers at a time.  Point is, it's way too low.

Fee structure proposal
0.4% transaction fee
0.05 Nxt per message
30 Nxt per alias registration

Didn't want to clog up this forum with a long post plus it would be really nice if we could start using other forums instead of everything in one place, no matter how loosely related.

Point is, here's the math and reasoning to back this up:
https://forums.nxtcrypto.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=785

Please go comment and let me know what you think about these numbers!

Just saw you math, but you make one wrong assumption and that is that transactions stay as they are now.

This is because there isn't anything else to DO with Nxt at the moment than trade on exchanges or between users, buy aliases and send messages (not data yet)

If you want a fair comparison, you would need to do for instance a calculation on a situation where you get a 5 time increase and 10 x increase in transactions.

I agree that alias registration could be more expensive. That's a fair proposal. BUT, remember, once aliases can be traded (as they were supposed to be, don't know if that is still on the cards. Devs?) then you will have a run on aliases now and again. This means a bidding war, which will skyrocket fees for a while, making the average fees much higher.

The main flaw, however, is that you take the status quo as the basis, where most proponents of the lower fee take a growth model as the basis.

Could you do some more calculations? I'm willing to be won over, but it will take cold math to prove me wrong Smiley

** Big News **

Nxt (along with Peercoin) will be one of two official currencies at Trekcon Springfield:

http://www.trekconspringfield.com/

We will have access to quiet a bit of media as well as tie-ins with Star Trek actors at the event. I will be working with local companies prior to the event to help support Nxt.  More details to come, still working on the logistics.  Here's a video we put out when we added Peercoin:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89YI6_6Aw2E


Yes, that's me in the video. The guys are already lining up interviews with local tv and radio stations, we'll also be able to take part in that promotion. Smiley


Made me laugh, as I have been talking with James about a "Federation of Gateways" today.

I guess that we can solve the "latin issue" only by voting.

Smiley

vox populi - "voice of the people". Short non-prearranged interview with an ordinary person (e.g. on the street); sometimes shortened to "vox pop".

If it's anything like the *real* Roman voting system, this means most people would have a useless vote, the fatcats would always win, and you would have to keep buying votes to get things done  Grin

Roman "democracy" was a total and utter sham.

How about: nemini confide (ne BCNext quidem)
"Trust no one" (not even BCNext)
- may be "magis quam moneta"  - "more than coin"

I like this, especially because it has alliteration.
Sticks in the mind!
975  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information on: February 13, 2014, 06:25:55 PM
So if we ever make coins or something we will need a slogan. USD has in god we trust. Bitcoin has "vires in numeris" which means strength in numbers. I thought for nxt we might use "In emergentia speramus" which translates to "in emergence we trust"

I wanted to write something else underneath the nxt logo that i put on my silver bars so "In emergentia speramus" is what i came up with. All constructive comments welcome.

In trust we trust:
In fide credimus

(no idea if that's a valid translation!)

Should be "In fide fidimus"

credere has more the connotation of "to believe".

How about: nemini confide (ne BCNext quidem)
"Trust no one" (not even BCNext)

Nxt is growing quickly the last few days.  Shocked


Nice to see. I hope that the price stays low until march.

Actually, it's rising today Wink

Hi NXTers!

NXT's greatest competitor seem to be Ethereum. It's main feature that NXT still lacks is scripting, which is a wonderful idea (along with it's risks of course) - kudos to Vitalik and his team for bringing this up!

Because I want NXT to be competitive and because this is a great feature on it's own, I decided to personally fund a team led by CIYAM and CfB (as long as he is with us), to implement this technology in NXT too!

The code will be open sourced when the feature is finished and extensively tested.
We will use a private github repo if others want to easily review the source during development.

Let the good times roll!

Awesome klee

It's becoming a kind of chariot race in 2nd Gen country, where we all bounce ideas off each other Smiley
I like it!
