NXT is dying :-(

[Daedelus]

Sorry, didn't realise this thread had some serious questions in it


Nxt has been open source since the day it was released, it was a single unobfuscated java class file. You just decompiled it.

Official open source was in March 2014, almost a year. Every version of the software released has come with the source code bundled with it so you can compile it yourself, if required. Development branches are private to stop clones releasing untested software that has been released on Nxt's testnet.

Technically, NXT has never been closed source

Damelon has already posted about our "anonymous dev" Kushti here:

Have a look here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMSA5W7jx1E&feature=youtu.be

It's an open Q&A with one of our core devs. Anonymous?

Here is his blog > http://chepurnoy.org/ Alexander Chepurnoy



Monetary System will allow MScoin to MScoin trading. InstantDEX is third party by JL777 (i.e. not a core feature). That is the buety of Nxt, anyone can build on top of it. It will give 2-5 sec transactions when it is released, coupled with Multigateway you will be able to trade crypto to crypto. Think of Monetary System for MSCoin to MSCoin trading 'inside' Nxt, and InstantDEX for cryptos 'outside' of Nxt ecosystem (but still through the Nxt platform)

can currencies in monetary system be used to buy assets in the nxt asset exchange?

Good question, I don't know the answer. My inclination would be yes but not right away.

Is dev still closed and annonymous? Then yes its dead id rather buy ripple if i want closed source crypto currency. Bitshares is good though

We do have some very closed devs.....I'm gonna assume you mean the source code, that's been open source since March of last year:
https://bitbucket.org/JeanLucPicard/nxt/src
Umm....well, there it is.

On the anonymity: assuming you do mean devs.....NXT has a dev team (not just one guy for the masses to worship) of around 5-6 core guys, another 5-6 on non-core stuff, plus an utterly unknown number working on 3rd party projects. Some of this team are still anonymous, but many aren't.
Got to :
www.nxtforum.org
and have a look around.

BTW: Ripple isn't a crypto-currency. It never has been, never claimed to be. Don't forget that Ripple dates from a time BEFORE Bitcoin and crypto:

Glad to see this thread!  

Nobody would care about a dying altcoin, so Nxt seem to be a bigger threat to "them" as I thought.  

No wonder, because the Nxt devs constantly deliver new functions since one year. I must admit that some maybe are too challenging for crypto newbies... But nonetheless I see a great future for Nxt!

Who says I'm over - Hyped? I still see a strong coin right now. Their still in the top 10, and it seems that other people don't seem to think it's dying.

All crypto coins seem to be going down the sink. Not just one or two coins.

We hope to help change that. For one thing, by making it easier for people to find promising alts and other "diamonds in the rough".

they should.  thanks for the reply.

Yes, currencies will eventually be able to be used to trade assets, but not at the launch of Monetary System.
