When will next go to the big markets??

I consulted a developer of one of the popular exchanges regarding accepting and sending NXTs. They didn't ask me to keep this in secret but I won't tell its name in case if it was supposed to be a secret.

And what did they say?

They asked for coins to test their system. Smiley

Nice, So can we officially announce Nxt to BTC-E to get trollbox excited!!

If you look through ops post history you'll discover quite quickly that he's a pathological lying troll.

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 Smiley

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! Cheesy

I see what you mean but even a random single or double digit being issued would be easy to remember and work round the security floor. Or username/pw like on blockchain.info.

If you look at blockchain info even with that security measure in place they've changed things (obviously out of a need as they've got bigger) so email & pw is no longer acceptable.

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.

I think it was more likely that it was similar to my bitcointalk account. thought i just logged in on auto mode during those days but maybe not. Yeah you're probably right to keep buying, I think it's bit uncertain were things are heading right now if you look at coinmarketcap.com things look pretty dire. But if any coins going to come out on top it will probably be this one.

I think it needs to issue an address first than have a password associated to the address like bitcoin, I think it's really floored and unscalable as it is.

Everyone got an equal amount of Nxt for an equal investment.  Open up a new account and use a very long, random password.  Go buy some more Nxt.  Nxt is still only 0.00001 btc.  This is ridiculously cheap.  Currently, Nxt is similarly priced to pointless clones like AmericanCoin, CasinoCoin, etc.  Even HoboNickels is more than DOUBLE Nxt's market price.  Go purchase some Nxt, you'll regret it later if you don't.

13m usd isn't cheap for a new startup that's barely out of beta, programmed by 1 guy in a short space of time? I think this media frenzy has got to everyones head. It's buying on the basis of the greater fool theory.

Incidentally, I was just thinking of starting a service for people exactly like the OP. Rich and clueless about bitcoin. Clueless is not meant to be condescending, just that they don't know about properly securing their bitcoins.

It's called an Offshore Paper Wallet ... essentially, I secure your bitcoins for you, in a country outside of your own. Cold storage. When you want to withdraw, come over here and show up, I help you send what you have to address(es) you control on your own wallet, minus a small % or storage cost fee.

See, there are smart and technical people who know about bitcoin, they know how to secure their stash, they know cold storage, they know paper wallets, they know offline transactions ... but they don't have money or bitcoins.

Then there are rich and smart people who know about bitcoins, how to secure them, and have money. Not my market.

I'm after the rich and not so technically inclined people (can also do those who have less, but if you're only going to send a small amount, you might as well just learn how to do it yourself). The ones who have money, but don't completely understand bitcoin security.

Or the ones who want to deny they control the private keys or have access to the coins. They are in cold storage, and the only place where the private keys are, are outside the country.

Obviously, I can not protect your coins if your family is held hostage and you come here to claim it. I also can't protect your coins if someone impersonates you, gets all your identity information, wears a mission impossible rubber mask to look like you, and comes here to claim your coins.

What I can do, is keep your coins in cold storage where no online hacker can steal it. Think of it as offshore safe deposit box, except I generate a completely random private key and bitcoin address(es) for you, print it on paper, then store it in a safe place.

If you know how to do that, do it. If you care to spend the time to learn how to do it, do it. If you can't be bothered, then you have to send the coins somewhere you are pretty damn sure will be safe.

Anything online (exchanges, online web wallets, even your own bitcoin-qt wallet connected to the internet) is out of the question.

What are the odds mate. I've been hopeing to find someone off the internet who was willing to take the responsibility of looking after a million cash for me :s
832  Economy / Speculation / Re: Borrowed $1,000,000 (1 million dollars) from my dad to invest in BTC (serious) on: December 06, 2013, 01:49:45 AM
If possible, buy from BTC-E, in sets of 10-15 coins at a time. Their rates are much lower than Mt.Gox and Bitstamp. As you will be purchasing in bulk amounts... it is MUST to get the lowest possible purchase price.

The storage of the coins can be a big concern. Store them in at least 4 different wallets (offline / paper) and create a dozen backups for each of them.

BTW... I'd consider LTC and NMC extremely risky. Put no more than 10% of your investment in to them.

Saying this, you could just arb you're 10k bitstamp limit at a time, by feeding USD into bitcoin-e buying bitcoin and transfering to bitstamp/gox(providing they're not still ridiculously slow on transfers). You'd need to set up a bank account locally in prague (for reduced fees and speedy upload times) but would totally reduce risk and you could have you're own money to play with without risking your dads in a short amount of time.

I think litecoins really risky, 4 times as many coins doesn't mean it should be 1/4 of the price even if it had as much credibility as Bitcoin. Some braniac worked out an equation for it last year that took into account what 4 times the market depth meant s = n^3 - t. That's not the equation but in most instances it meant litecoin should be 1/33 of bitcoin price and that's pretty much where it's always been.

Dafar,

Whatever you do don't take any advice from anyone who uses extra large, colored lettering or both. On internet forums using large lettering is considered shouting and therefore offensive. How would you like it if someone shouted advice in your face in real life whilst showering you in spit from their filthy obnoxious mouths?

If you come across such people politely tell them to jog on.

When it comes to 7-figure amount, I prefer to "scream in red," to be sure that I will be heard!
And my advice is to trust theymos.
And not like you (I do not know you and I do want to know you) that have 500-600 posts, but registered only 3-4 months ago. Maybe you're a normal person or you might be a fraud.
At least I gave useful advice, not like you!

You shouldn't do it colours and big shouty letters can destroy forums. I registered a year and 3-4 months ago and haven't given any serious advice on this thread so not sure why you're getting your panties in a twist.

You're advice wasn't useful. You're advice was serious (unlike mine) and telling him to trust someone he certainly doesn't need to take the risk of trusting.

You can also lurk on #bitcoin-assets.
And I've learned quite a few things by asking the right dumb questions!

Oh, one more thing: STAY AWAY FROM SCAMMERS! Now that you've made public you've got lots of cash to buy BTCs, they'll come around you with outrageous claims/offers. If those offers/claims seem too good to be true, they're DEFINITELY TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE! Shocked

+ 1 for security immediately create a cloud wallet and load your funds. Make sure you create an ultra strong password I'd be happy for you to send me the first half of this password by pm then I'd recommend you sending the other half of the password too ultralegitescrowman@gmail.com (wait 30 mins as I don't think he's set up this email yet). This way you know you're secured peer to peer in the spirit of Bitcoin itself.

I'd be interested to hear his current market insights, Is their a link to them on his blog?

http://trilema.com/2013/a-simple-example-as-to-why-fiat-institutions-cant-stand/
Just check the "Recent Articles" right menu and enjoy.

As weird has he can get, Popescu made it to my ~10 names trust list.
He's definitely someone you can trust, provided you play by the his rules.
Rules that are clearly defined.


Appreciate the link. I'll probably just be a silent reader!
