I used the "diff" command. I don't remember the exact syntax, you'll need to ask google. I don't think that Visual Studio is a tool for the job. NXT is written in Java.  |

You can start by downloading 1.4.6-testnetinabox.tar.xz from here: https://github.com/bcdev-/NXT-testnet-in-a-box.gitThen download the official 1.4.6 [https://bitbucket.org/JeanLucPicard/nxt/src], make a recursive diff and compare changes that I made to create my own testnet. Then you can create your own genesis block and port changes to 1.7.4. Happy coding! |

NXT ... likely goes on the list but i like to see camp NXT whine  NXT is alive 22 months and is in constant development. It's scheduled to have a hard fork in the next few months with new features, and new releases of the software are coming out every few weeks. It's much more mature than many other coins already included on your list. Also, I'd add to this list BTCD, as it's a backbone of SuperNET and will soon have a decentralized, trustless gambling. I'd also put a vote on BTS because of it's steady development. GRID and NEM and Qora ... maybe ... slim chance ...too exotic
I'd like to point out that you have a PotCoin on your list... I'd call that exotic. Also, you misspelled "PPC" as "PP" on your list. |

1) They aren't out of money, they still have about $2mil. It'll last them about a year with their current plans. 2) About half of the money was lost with the bitcoin price decline. That leaves "only" $7mil squandered since the time of crowdfounding. If they start being more efficient they still have the chance to reach their goals. Having a very small community fund forced us to be economical, particularly with marketing, but if that wasn't the case.....
As it is, I estimate that we've spent around $ 250,000 on Nxt core related stuff over the last 2 years, if not more.

Good point. One fix is to allow account balances to dip into negative, keeping track of which accounts currently have negative balances. And when finished processing, accept the block only if no such account balances exist.
This method is applicable only to payments. It won't work on advanced features like asset exchange. Nah, same idea, just treat every asset balance like a seperate account balance for that account. You still have to have some canonical order for market orders. |

@mczarnek: Do you have in mind a tx-based currency [like Bitcoin] or account-balance-based one [like NXT]?

Not every transaction depends on the transaction before it. You can parallelize 99.9% of transaction processing and keep 0.01% serial [if one transaction depends on the one before it in the same block].
What is the source of your numbers? I don't have a source. I don't think it's needed in this case. Look at this block for example: https://blockchain.info/block/000000000000000000c0e693dd6c552e8ba40ac63d978f7cef1b49cce03f8c7dWhile there are some chains of transactions [I can see even one chain of 10tx!] they are exception. Most of transactions are using transactions from previous blocks. These can be easily parallelized. Besides, even if you had 4 long chains of 300tx in one block, it'd max out 4 core cpu to 100% allowing for about the same time. |

I don't see any reason you can't parallelize transaction processing, which seems to be the majority of the work miners are doing.
Alice has $10, Bob has $0. Block contains "Alice pays Bob $5" and "Bob pays Alice $5". One node will accept this block, another node will reject it because thread scheduler will change the order of transaction processing. More interesting effects will happen during order matching if you have something like Asset Exchange. Not every transaction depends on the transaction before it. You can parallelize 99.9% of transaction processing and keep 0.01% serial [if one transaction depends on the one before it in the same block]. |

Like the $17m lasted?
Big chunk of the money was lost due to Bitcoin's loss in value. But yes, they are awful at managing money [compared to SuperNET and NXT]. Does Ethereum Foundation have any monetization plan? How much do they make in donations for example? Is it enough to keep development forward? |
|

Let us start off by providing an overview of the Foundation’s financial situation. Its current holdings are roughly:
200,000 CHF
1,800 BTC
2,700,000 ETH
That's $2,315,000 with today's prices, most of which is in ETH. Assuming that ETH price is stable, it'll last: The foundation’s monthly expenditures are currently ~410,000 CHF and starting Oct 1 are projected to fall to 340,000 CHF; a mid-term goal has been placed of 200,000 – 250,000 CHF
Even with 200,000 CHF of monthly expenses the Ethereum Foundation will go bankrupt in 12 months if they don't have any monetization plans. Do they have any monetization plan? |

Those are all for amateurs, real coders send the orders directly in electricity packets to the processor and translate that to [0,1] bits. That sounds like a kindergarten game. True professionals create their own computers from logic chips.  |

@jdbtracker: ASM is too high-level. Real men code in VHDL/Verilog.

Bitruble, a new Russian cryptocurrency, will be issued and circulated under control of Russia's Central Bank. It is expected to compete with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Calling that cryptocurrency is doublespeak. In reality it's going to be PayPal. Nothing to see here. What a joke. "Banks adopting cryptocurrency" and "states adopting cryptocurrency" is just trying to redefine the word "cryptocurrency" to mean "centralized database". |

@iCEBREAKER:
You convinced me. NXT is a scam, jl777 is a scam artist and doesn't know how to code. Come-From-Beyond is a scammer too and BCnext holds 90% of NXT ready to dump it at any moment.
Oh! And EvilDave is as his name suggests is evil [and complete plonker].
I already dumped all my holdings and invested them into FeatherCoin. Thank you for opening my eyes!

I vote bitcoin due to unfair distribution. Satoshi holds 1mlnBTC.  |
