Wait.. were people already buying presell emu???  I signed up to be notifed and wanted to get in on it. iveeven got big plans on running a powerful hatcher. Geez man

Just read the draft whitepaper you guys are working on.  Im pretty stoked that you guys included material from my article 'whats nxt in the world of cryptocurrencies?'

https://forums.nxtcrypto.org/viewtopic.php?style=3&f=2&t=276

That account's keys were never generated.  That is hiberNXT since 12344 doesnt have a public key on the blockchain.

All:  I have created a discussion area specifically for dealing with this matterr of how to handle these unclaimed coins.  Please see the forum board at https://forums.nxtcrypto.org/viewforum.php?f=54

I expect we should have different threads in there, discussion of the board, multisig, operations, different ideas of what to do with the coins, etc

bitcoin is vulnerable for a very unfair advantage even if a pool only owns 33% of the hashing power.  A research paper from Cornell University explains more and this following article gives a laymans view of the risk as described by the Cornell researchers: http://hackingdistributed.com/2013/11/04/bitcoin-is-broken/

I read this article about the 33% attack in November, and it is what prompted me to start searching for what I thought had the possibility to replace bitcoin, which is how I found NXT.

The NXT Foundation will at not cost to you manage your VPS; this offer comes with a custom SCREENNAME.vps.nxtcrypto.org domain name visible in peer lists!  All you hae to do is pay for the VPS and we will do the rest.

1) Sign up https://www.budgetvm.com/account/cart.php?gid=64  They accept PayPal.  Or use Digital Ocean.  Or use any other provider.  You need at least 1024MB of RAM on the VPS though.

2) The 1024MB VPS for $4.99/month should be sufficient unless you have a hallmark balance with more than 1,000,000 NXT, in that case please choose the 2048MB VPS for $9.99/month

3) When signing up for a VPS, when they ask for a hostname for your VPS, enter in: SCREENNAME.vps.nxtcrypto.org

4) When selecting an OS, please choose Debian6 x64

5) Send a Private Message in the NXT Foundation Forums to user forkedchain.  The Forums are at http://forums.nxtcrypto.org and in the PM please include the VPS's IP address, root password, and your generated hallmark for hostname SCREENNAME.vps.nxtcrypto.org.  You can generate your hallmark at https://localhost:7875/admin.html but please do this in private browsing mode so that your passphrase isnt cached to your disk

6) The NXT Foundation will 100% manage the VPS for you; you will still have shell access and I will give you a script on your server you can run ant any time to check your server at any time, like user abctc has on the VPS we are managing for that user account.

Im okay with using 160 million figure as the amount of hiberNXT it appears all along that the plan was for any account with no public key to be a bonus for the future additional source of 'mining' when in the future those accounts can be cracked. if those accounts are really cold storage you really need to secure them by making one transaction

my opinion Marketing was never part of the plan it looks to me like the features offered are all the marketing the original developers thought they needed

 this

 remember a 100 percent distribution at Genesis is the only way to secure a 100 percent proof of stake coin

Hold and wait for the features

can you expound on this?  are you saying that in order to hit an average of 1 block every minute for a 24 hour period, that 100% of all NXT must be unlocked and forging?  that doesnt make sense to me.  so why is it sometimes we see multiple blocks being forged in under a minute?

thanks for posting that there.  I went to the alt-client forum there and asked all the devs there who have done their own client to implement this.

lol think of the possibilities of vanity accounts with alphanumeric!  actually, probably not many.  the forward error correction would most likely prohibit most words from being used

0.5.3 didnt work well for me at all but 0.5.4e seems really good

hey JLP,  is your vanity generator able to generate accounts that begin with zeros?

hes only like the 3rd person to suggest this!  good we really need to get this implemented

EVERYONE.  Please sign up for this, even if you cannot manage it yourself. I CAN DO IT FOR YOU!!! FOR FREE!!  as long as you sign up for the service (be sure to select the t1 micro tier) under your amazon account you can  PM me the IP address and SSH key they give you and I will do it all.

No I dont need nor do I want your amazon credentials.  Just the IP and SSH key.

Be sure to tell it to use a debianOS so use this link: https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B00AA27RK4  be sure to select x64 OS.
WHATEVER YOU DO DONT PICK THE WINDOWS OS.  i cannot manage those efficiently like i can these debian ones

As a bonus I will run these nodes under the vps.nxtcrypto.org domain so you will be able to see YOURSCREENNAME.vps.nxtcrypto.org out there in peer lists!

DO IT WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? DONT WORRY ABOUT CRUSHING ME WITH A BIG LOAD it is fantastically easy to manage a whole shitton of these things with EmoneyRU's awesome ansible playbooks!

DO IT NOW

dude thats awesome!  bitcoinmagazine told me today that my article will be published on their webmag.  not sure when though

I know who and im surprised the author hasnt told us about this before now

if they dont then what should i do with my cryptsy stash?

my update.html link tells me i can upgrade from 0.5.1 to 0.5.3 but the download button it gives me does nothing.

the link http://download.nxtcrypto.org/nxt-client-0.5.3.zip does appear to be valid though

has something broken in the update.html page?

As CfB said, its to allow future recovery of "lost" NXT in the future. "Lost" as in someone mistakenly sent NXT to the wrong address that doesnt yet exist.

So basically, CfB and BCNext are here to tell you that that was the plan all along, and that EVERYONE is advised to secure all accounts by paying for at least 1 transaction/alias.

CAUSE IM COMING FOR YOUR HIBERNXT WITH MA CURVE25519 ASIC IN 2015
