Which is when?

Who are you? How do you know that? He earlier stated he had people on his team that could step in during his absences.

Installing an update then taking off and being off the grid right after that is not a good business decision.

DOH! You are punking us!

I assume you mean "NOT" planning that?

Who are you? Where are you located? Where are the server's located. About tells me nothing.

Why is there 0 volume. Wouldn't you have some volume from beta testing?

What are the trading fees? The fee schedule should show the actually fees, not the promotional fee.

What are the deposit/withdrawal fees? Are they fully automated.

The one main downside NXT has in my eyes is the single ID for a person. You have to manage multiple ids/passwords if you want to try to obscure your identity and holdings at all.

The other downside, which some list as a benefit, is that so much stuff is being pilled onto NXT that it might be confusing to some people to just use as a currency. Although, I think this can mostly be solved by having a "lite" wallet that hides the Forging, Aliases, AE, DSG, messaging etc, and only has Balance/Send/Receive stuff on it. Or at least hides all that stuff by default.

I have a question on the Qora wallet.

When you go to spend/send coins there is a drop down to chose a from address. What if you want to spend more coins than you have in any single address. It bitcoin the wallet will just spend the oldest inputs is any address and find the best ones to match your spend.

Does Qora do this too? Or, will you have to make multiple spends if you don't have enough coins in any single address?

thanks.

True, it's more of a psychological thing. that's whey they are talking about using "Bit" as a decimal portion cause people really don't know math and understand what a uBTC vs mBTC etc really mean.

That'll be .00002340 bitcoin please.

I was mostly talking about the POS (point of sale) type of retail and the transaction confirm speed.

My opinion, and it's worth what you are paying for it. Bitcoin will always be the "gold" of crypto. Most others will trade against it. It also has the most momentum for payments. But, I think it will be used for payments where "slow" is ok. That means, online purchases, or LARGE purchases, boats, cards, houses, etc. You can beat the transaction fee with a stick.

But, for retail I think there needs to be "something" else. Something faster. I don't think LTC is it, it is still too slow. Many alt's are shooting for 60-90 second first confirm, faster yes, but still too slow. Also, I think the number of coins for both BTC and LTC is too small for widespread retail usage too.

If what I read about transparent forging is correct and it works, then that meas NXT transactions could take seconds or milliseconds. I think that will be the retail benchmark. A currency that is widely used, secure, as fast as a credit card transaction with no chargebacks, could happen. I think you also need some type of payment system that is credit card swipe/NFC tap simple. I'm not sure that can be done without some type of payment processor, which means fees again.

This is work on a BTC "gateway". I think that means you will be able to trade BTC for NXT without going through an exchange. Not sure if "other crytos" are planned for that. Although, on the asset exchange people have been trading another coins "stakes" for NXT.

I'm going long on both BTC and NXT at this point, and watching, dabbling in others more for short term speculation, see what happens stuff.

Maybe something like this could run on top of the NXT digital goods service.

The OP says escrow will be available.

Just a bit of info about lastpass. LastPass has been reviewed by several security and cytology experts. Your lastpassword is never transmitted over the internet. LassPass has no idea what your master password is. While lastpass stores your "vault" online in order to sync it across devices they have no access to your passwords, since all encryption and description is done locally (pretty much that same as the blockchain.info mywallet).

If you create a single, strong (four or five words or a phrase that you make up) master password with a high entropy value (see http://xkcd.com/936/)  you have very very very low risk. Enable 2FA (two factor authentication) on your lastpass account as well. You don't need premium as someone mentioned for lastpass 2FA. You do need premium for certain 2FAs like Seasame, Smart Card, Fingerprint, Yubikey).  

I would much rather let lasspass generate and remember passwords for me that risk that I forget a password (or part of my password is stored on a file somewhere) because I didn't trust lastpass. I pay the $12 per year happily so I can use it on my mobile devices as well.

Highly recommended.

Replying to follow this. Looks interesting.

I'm sure that's just a non-native English speaker's incorrect grammar structure. I think he is trying to say that the developer is concerned about the community.

I'm far from panic mode. But, there's not much you can do if you requested a withdrawal and it didn't work.

Got it, thanks for the correction.   So, does it have a sweep function for paper wallets? I haven't checked it out. I've been very happy with the blockchain.info wallet. I've never once d/l'ed the bitcoin blockchain.

Yes, it is supposition and an educated guess. I don't have any facts, only what I have personally experienced.

No, but you certainly want to save the wallet. You never know, someone might send coin's to your old address. If you loose that wallet you've lost those coins.

I think Electrum is deterministic right? So you can't import other keys into it?

Who's truth is that?

It's too early for me to think that.

I tend to agree with you. But, 24hours now with zero communication is frustrating and unacceptable. After the last issue we were told better monitoring was put in pace and notifications would be forthcoming if there are future issues. Also, the site is sporadically reachable now, which means it might be under DOS attack. If there is an exchange user that got upset and decided to attack the site, it certainly isn't helping solve any issues.
 

If you use the Wesly client you can set it to minimize to Tray. Then set a book mark in your browser to access it at local host port XXX (I forget the port 78 something). This also allow you to use browser password manager like LastPass to put in your password easily.
