Why can't an address be created that you associate a password with like Bitcoin? It's just a different approach. Either you have wallet.dat file with private keys which you must hold in dark cold place, affraid of viruses, bad blocks and your mom cleaning room early morning. Or you have just long passphrase associated - in your brain olny! - with some good old times when grass was greener and light was brighter... oh, nevermind  Both ways have some weak points, both required to understand things, both give you good ability to lost everything you have. And I not even speak about thermorectal cryptoanalysis!  Ha, very nice! I agree with you, both have weak points. People can stress about a wallet file on their desktop that could be stolen, destroyed with the computer, etc.. I think there are ways to improve security with Nxt model, such as limiting unlock attempts per minute for a specific IP, or perhaps locking a specific Nxt address to an IP as an option for the user, so you could only login from a specific IP address, etc.. There is room for improvement and the good thing about Nxt is you won't get the online hosted wallet thefts like BTC is seeing. |

Chang hum, how many nxt did you lose?
500000, don't know what's more disappointing the money or the reaction from other more technical users! Sorry to hear that Chang Hum. I really believe Nxt has great potential. It's a bummer that you had such a bad experience early on, but no reason for others not to buy in. Cheers mate, yeah I like the idea too although I think the initial coin distribution is badly thought through and perhaps the project was overly rushed to market to get advantage over colored coins/mastercoin. I might buy back in at 10x the price of last week haha! Yeah, I know, I've continued to buy and every time the price is double, however I do still think it's a good value and when certain client features are released, it will really take off. Regardless, I'm really surprised your password was brute forced, seems like that is something BCNext can help improve on, perhaps limiting the # of times you can unlock client from an IP in a certain amount of time. |

Lol I can assure you that I don't know the dev of Nxt at all.
That said, if I did, I would most certainly have fell out with regard to his "QA" practices, so you are semi correct on one point!
I'm going to be a bit brash here, but simply put, NxT (and most other "next gen" cryptos) simply wont be able to compete with the technical quality of eMunie, save for perhaps Invictus Innovations BitShare/KeyHotee and MercSuey's latest paper, nothing comes close.
Well Nxt is already leaps and bounds ahead of emunie. It sounds like you're jealous and insecure. I can guarantee you that Nxt will outperform emunie in all aspects. You already know this yourself, hence your smear comments. You have posts on your emunie forum discussing Nxt's successes and are trying to emulate Nxt. I'm heavily invested in both Nxt and eMu. Have you beta tested eMu client? It's really innovative. I wouldn't say Nxt is "leaps and bounds ahead" other than the fact that it's out there being sold right now. I see Nxt as a hoarders currency and eMu as a spenders currency, they are both great, but very different in most ways. When the eMu client is officially released, it will be more advanced than Nxt client, however, it's a demand generation currency, and it won't sky rocket in value like I expect Nxt will. |

I hope the investors are right and that more coins will be distributed soon. I also hope, as one predicted, that the price will crash -100x so more people can buy (I know I'll buy more). But until then, right or wrong, they will have to defend themselves and NXT itself against the image problem of have so many coins in so few accounts. People are dumb and won't understand the difference between a premine and this, updated FAQ or not. I can understand both sides here, and I'm willing to wait a while to see how things go. Maybe a slow adoption rate is better anyway (if a 113 page thread in 10 days is slow  ) . I invested my money because the idea is good. Hopefully more people are like me and see the potential, and aren't just interested in another alt coin pump and dump, and therefore stick around and contribute. I hope the investors make the right decisions, NXT's future is in their hands currently. The price won't crash. I bought Nxt when the market cap was at $1M, and I thought that was extremely undervalued. I think at the current market cap $15m, the Nxt coin is still way under valued. |

I've decided to sell 1M Nxt, no smaller increments, please PM me with offers. After that, I'm holding everything I have. Thanks.

I sell up to 1M Nxt @ 0.000007 BTC per Nxt (7 BTC for 1M Nxt)
This offer is only available until today midnight GMT.
"1.75 BTC for 250K Nxt, I have few remained at this price." This is a deal do not sell to any one I want to buy at this price..please reserve the coins for me I am downloading the software and going through instructions on how to install....
How are we going to proceed? is there an escrow? Well we can do it here publicly and in several steps if you feel unsafe, or asking for escrow (in which case I don't have any idea whom to ask). But as I mentioned in my last pm, be warned that I ll go to bed after two or three hours. Tomorrow I post a new price based on market condition. In general my price is 7 BTC for 1M Nxt. I can escrow but I would trust bybitcoin with closed eyes.. Though it is not wise to trust anyone, me included! +1, bought a lot of Nxt from him. |

To answer the original poster's question. Yes, the coin is legit. Your reference to Dgex and Nextcoin.org is completely irrelevant to development of the client and currency. It would be like saying Bitcointalk and MtGox were started by Satoshi. This post seems like a trollish move to try to get some Nxt at a discount. When everything is officially launched and the client exchange is up and running, no one will likely use Dgex, and the currency value will most likely sky rocket.

I got an interesting PM just a minute ago: " Hi Klee, Im looking for a good cryptocurrency to invest money in. I was enthousiastic about NXT since it's the newest coin on the market. However, when I did some research on it I discovered the following things: The currency website www.nextcoin.org and NXT echange platform DGEX.com are both hosted by the same company that appears have produced the currency. That's Graviton Capital Inc. By checking the WHOIS info on these websites the admin of both is goldtails@gmail.comBy googling that emailadress I discovered other websites that are adminned by this guy: http://www.webboar.com/whois-email/goldtails@gmail.comThese are domainnames of gambling websites that look like scams. The one that caught my eye the most is: www.ponzigame.comPONZI GAME... Above all that: in the terms of DGEX.com NXT exchange website it says that all BTC tranfered in to your DGEX account will become property of DGEX.com Well aren't these all serious red flags not to get involved with this currency? I'd look to know what your opinion is on my foundings. I haven't been able to post directly on the forum since I'm only a newbie here. If you also see this as an unfolding scam please warn everybody that is interested. Kind regards, xxx " I had to disclose it for transparency. Regardless of the DGEX part, still I can't see how Next or BCNext could be linked with this. Anyways, I think the accusations for Graviton even if legit have nothing to do with the coin.. Why worry about privacy, he posted a thread... Really? Link please? Thing is www.nextcoin.org and www.dgex.com are not affilated with the creation of nxt coin. Nxt will have its own dedicated exchange at time of release in january and btcnxt was happy to just have this forum as a page for nxt. but that doesnt mean nextcoin.org and dgex.com are legit. but i have used the exchange myself with no issues. Well, when it comes to domain names, I own NextCoin.com, anyone want to develop as a general site for more info on NxtCoin? PM me. |

Don't deal with Hoco on buying or selling Nxt, he is a Scammer.

How much for 100k NXT?
According to dgex exchange 2btc... EDIT: Someone just sold @0.000012 EDIT2: Someone just bought @0.00002 again thats a bunch of bologna. im just going to wait patiently for something more reasonable. there is a lot of potential for a 100% proof of stake coin but the code is still closed source for christ sake. I agree, the going rate right now is 200k per BTC, shouldn't be paying more than that. Of course, tomorrow it will probably be 100k per BTC |

I finally could prevail to send Nxt to the previous buyers!!!
@msin: sent 2M Nxt to your 18311555883168620168 account, please confirm it!
@bizz: sent 720 Nxt to your 7678554491804589202 account, please confirm it!
@qbd1313: sent 1M Nxt to your 2760535134620998841 account, please confirm it!
All were sent from my 3131310014084837325 account!
some points:
1- I really meant to protect your btc againt extreme scenario (my death...) when I asked for a refund, I do not need to break any promise to take profit from the current and future uprise in price, as I still have more than 29M Nxt reserved. And I have been nice to my previous costumers, selling them Nxt at low prices to distribute it well among more mining nodes. You can read their feedbacks.
2- bizz sent me 0.1 btc as donation and qbd1313 sent ~0.019 btc to compensate his previously transferring the tx fee to my side. Dudes you do not need to pay or donate those btc. Please provide a btc address in your confirmation post for sending them back to you.
3- I ll post a sell offer soon after getting some 4 or 5 hours rest and sleep. But please do not send any btc to any of my addresses before I make a deal final with you individually.
Thanks a lot, was a nice trade with you all!
Received, thanks bybitcoin. |

The guy sent me at his own disposal and timing, the guy put even the tx fee of his payment at my shoulder, the guy now threatens me that I should keep my promise for so and so...!
bizz I ll inform you when my client sending is working again and you can send me your 0.72 btc to receive your 720K Nxt.
qbd: I ll not sell you any Nxt even for 100BTC per 1M Nxt, very rude guy!
It's wise to honor your obligations, regardless of how rude the other party is... I have a nice trading history and have been very nice to previous costumers and they all confess that. Noitev please take your shit back for yourself, you the charitable hoho, you mean those few Nxt per person for the bumping.. I know your type well. Keep your shit for yourself, do not teach me morality. As soon as I get the sending function working I ll pay the sell orders (bizz you can resend your btc then) and will also start the giveaway too. Noitev if you are a charitable person, why don't you try to fund one of the bounties in progress?! Pouncer, I, klee, CfB and neer already has donated nice chunks. As we know you won't because it is already bumped  @bybitoin, still waiting for my Nxt buddy. I'm using 0.3.3 and am able to send and receive Nxt no problem with a few test transactions. Thanks. |

2Kool4Skewl should change the download link in the starting post from 0.2.19 to 0.3.3.
And include new directions to get the client running, since it's a completely different process now. |

Is anyone else having issues with opening the local client? I just downloaded the new version, but it won't launch, any ideas? I'm using a launch.bat file. Thanks.
Could you be more specific, how are you launching it? Is there any output? I created a launch.bat file in the same folder as the Nxt zip file (java -cp Nxt.zip Nxt). When I enter the local host in the web browser it just times out. I was logging in fine yesterday, then stopped working today, realized there was a new version so I downloaded, but still no dice. -snip- Are you using the latest JRE? The error you're getting is almost like your zip doesn't have the Nxt class. Try redownloading the zip. Yes, tried re-downloading zip and using latest JRE, worked fine yesterday\ Did you cd to folder? Looks like you dont have zip in your path. Yes, I cd to folder and also have launch.bat file in same folder as zip, tried both ways. Getting this output C:\nxtcoin\client>java -cp Nxt.zip Nxt Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Nxt : Unsuppo rted major.minor version 51.0 at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method) at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClassCond(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(Unknown Source) at java.security.SecureClassLoader.defineClass(Unknown Source) at java.net.URLClassLoader.defineClass(Unknown Source) at java.net.URLClassLoader.access$000(Unknown Source) at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) Could not find the main class: Nxt.
