If I remember correctly, each block size is 32 KiB maximum. The minimum transaction size is 128 byte. So one block can only contain so many transactions. Just how many it depends on the size of the transactions. 250 max.

thx

Could someone show me an example of the sendmoney API call. I can't make it work.

You are saying this with so much conviction, yet not willing to put any money on it.
Pretty strange, maybe this cryptocurrency world is not for you.

A press release and any major promotion should wait till january, when there is source code, and a client that works better (a native client would be even better). Nxt is not ready for mainstream right now.
Just my two cents.

It wasn't just the developer statment:
http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=2000&tra=536189619322400724
Every price drop happened this week after this guy sent 10M to the exchange. Today I watched it happen. Just after nxt arrived (I myself had incoming transaction, so I know when it got to the exchange), "someone" started to post lower and lower big sell orders, undercutting everyone, even himself. Also, at the same time "someone" bought up almost every sizeable buy order, down to 0.00000450. Even some small ones just for giggles.

This account sent around 40M to the exchange so far.

Something is fishy. I had serious déjà vu while I read the OP.

You even plagiarised from it:

The exact same line. And I mean exact, down to the double space between two sentences.

This is a great way to make yourself look smart.
You know that the source for the extra features will not be releases initially, it was stated before. You are not speculating on this.

So, let me summarize:
You thing (suspect, fear, whatever) that Nxt is a scam. The creator released a basic, buggy coin just so he can make some fast money. The promised features are not coming, they don't and won't exist.

You are so confident in this, you voice your opinion boldly, and frequently on various forums.

Now, how about you put some money behind it? Care for a bet?
You win if Nxt won't include at least two of the promised innovative features until the end of March 2014.
How much would you like to bet?

I'm pretty sure someone is manipulating the price on Dgex. It's really easy, especially with no exchange fees.

Thanks!

In truth, normally the not automatic transaction is not really an issue for me, I can wait. The extra security worth it.
It was just bad luck the delay to happen now, and expecially with (some of) my coins that I use to trade with. I could've made about +20% bitcoin today with it. But stuff happens.
Keep up the good work.

Same here, my cashout is pending for the last 29 hours. And even better, you can't initiate another withdraw while this one pending, you can't cancel it. The system really needs some work.

I want 10 shares.

I agree. I wasn't happy when I read someone wants to put it on Coinmarketcap, and even less happy when succeeded.
Nxt is not ready for the spotlight, in more than one way. When I bought in, my intention was to look it up a few months from now. It was a good idea, because it will be a much better and clearer situation by then, but I just can't stay away.

The beauty of the whole system is that it's fair. No matter how much money you put in, everyone will get the same return in proportion. You can't ask to make the same money for $10 as someone who invested $1000 the same time.
Now, when did you invest, that's an other story.
I myself found nxt about a week ago, and bought some. I wasn't happy I didn't found it before the genesis block, but I'm happy today that I found it last week. Someone will probably think the same thing a week from now. This can't be helped.

Now I understand. Thanks.

What return did you expect with 2200 NXT? You get what you put in. If you started CPU mining Bitcoin today you would get Bitcoin. Just not much... If you wanted more, you'd get GPU for a few hundred dollars. That would make more bitcoin. If not enough, you could spend a few thousand for ASIC, and get more.
The same is true here, but instead of hardware you have to get NXT.

As someone who bought GPUs, and ASICs for a lot of money, I find NXT more than fair.

But only if you give away the coins for every account equally. Or I am missing something?
My idea is a simple giveaway, based on previous Mining Ratio (as seen in blockchan explorer). Right now most blocks have no fee, but the block being mined anyway. So why not give something to people who bought coins, and mined with it early on? It's a much more just, and motivating giveaway than a "post your address topic".

It's possible I'm overlooking something obvious, if so, please tell me.

A good promotion and good use of stakeholder coin would be to pool some coin together, including any unclaimed coins, and announce that this will be distributed at some date between the miners/forgers, proportionaly to theoretical mining power. (Excluding the top x accounts.)
A promise like this would be a good incentive to get into Nxt. Get coins, run the client, etc.
