You need to install Java 8.

There is extensive discussion of these topics on https://nxtforum.org/monetary-system-153/ start by reading the official documentation and the mint worker documentation then read https://nxtforum.org/monetary-system-153/how-to-setup-miner-for-windows/ there is also extensive discussion how to configure GPU mining.


Keccak25 is Keccak i.e. SHA3 with a 25th hashing round. Its probably stable, but I don't think it was formally researched. You can mint it with CPU and GPU.
Is it safer to go with a tried and tested algo like Scrypt or SHA256? probably, unless you like to be Asic resistant.


The average number of hashes per mint can be calculated as 2^difficulty where difficulty increases linearly from min to max as more currency units are minted.
For example, if min difficulty is set to 20 the number of hashes required to solve a hash at the beginning would be 2^20 =~ 1 Million


Minting of MS currency is used for creation of new currency units, it does not help in securing the NXT protocol which is based on Proof Of Stake.

Tried again and it worked correctly.

Some feedback about the 0.5 release.
It took about 5 minutes for the client to load, once up I was able to enter my passphrase and check my balance.
I submitted several small transaction between my accounts, got 2 confirmations for each but could not see the balance updated.
Then I noticed that no peers are connected so I restarted my client (logout/login did not help) waited another 5 minutes for the blockchain to verify and now these transactions are gone ...
If you PM me I can send you the account numbers I used (I don't have the transaction ids)

You have to download and install Java 7 from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

Nothing serious, actually things look pretty good.

I submitted about half a dozen bug reports to the bug report Google forum is anyone taking note of these ?

Folks,
Is there a place we can see the Nis public APIs ? A Javadoc or wiki post. Currently the only way to see it is in the Ncc console.
Are these APIs stable or are they likely to change significantly ?

Just submitted a bug report through Google forms. The problem are: (1) no place to add attachments (2) no feedback about bug id or anything we can use to track for further discussion.
Please consider a better alternative.

Please send me some test nem

Omar and Hiro, I truly appreciate your work and your long term thinking. The roadmap looks impressive, even if you are able to implement only part of it, this will still provide benefit to the community.
I know these are tough times for you but hang in there. Your persistence and dedication will pay off !
To show my appreciation I just placed a buy order on Mintpal.

I don't understand how the "Import QR" feature works ...
I created a new address, displayed it using "Show QR Code" and then saved to a .png file
Opened the .png file in mspaint which displayed the QR Code.
Clicked "Import QR", pointed the window at the QR Code displayed in mspaint and clicked "Snap".
Well, the window closed and nothing happened ...
What am I missing ?

I'm following Hirocoin since the day it was launched and I must say I'm very impressed with how this community operates.

Dear NAS team. You copied the NXT protocol as is (did not even bother to change some of the labels) and you are distributing coins which are only worth few satoshies which people go and immediately dump on dgex.

What is your plan ? Do you have a killer feature you are working on ?

From the information at http://www.buysafecoins.com/ its unclear if you have to send exactly one BTC or one MSC or if you can send, say, 0.1 BTC to receive 1700 Safecoins.
Can you please clarify ?

I've been mining this coin for over 2 weeks now using my dual 7950 rig with 0 down time.
The temperature maxed at 58C.
It's the most stable and well managed coin I've seen so far.

The Israeli site http://www.isracoin.org.il/ is exploding with activity ... Israelies are known for taking risks and quickly adapting new technologies as well as being bold and stubborn there could be something here.
