Intriguing look forward to see this become notable

Anyone else surprised we haven't seen an even bigger buy-in?  People are willing to throw thousands of BTC at unproven ICOs and here we have a major upgrade to an established project.

Not really tbh.
This is not an ICO, and it lacks the high level speculation aspect and potential to make 5-10x amount of money in a very short amount of time, like so many other projects out there.
That seem to be what attracts most interest these days.

so if I trade my nxt coins...then I have no nxt anymore?

Just in case other replies haven't addressed this for you, and to sum things up for late arrivals (please correct me if something is not accurate)

1) Starting july 14, hourly snapshots of NXT balance will be taken for all Nxt network accounts. This will last for three months. At Nxt network block 1,000,000 (due for October 12th) every Nxt account will receive an amount of Ardor assets equal to the average of all the snapshots taken. Your account still keeps the NXT you are holding at that block, as usual. And from that moment, Ardor assets become tradable in the Nxt asset exchange.

2) When Ardor network goes online next year, the ARDR tokens for the main chain will be distributed according to the number of Ardor assets held in each Nxt account at the moment of launch. This main chain and the ARDR tokens are the backbone securing the whole network including all child chains transactions.

3) At the same time of launch, tokens for the first Ardor child chain (the transactional token, name to be determined but so far referred to as "FNX" in discussions) will also be distributed to each account. The ratio will be 0.5 "FNX" for each NXT in the Nxt account balance at the time of Ardor launch. The other half of these first child chain tokens are held for platform development and funding.

4) The Nxt (1.0) network goes on as it is. So the amount of NXT held in every Nxt account are still there with the Nxt 1.0 features after Ardor (Nxt 2.0) has launched.

In short,

1 NXT >>> 1 ARDR + 0.5 "FNX" + 1 NXT
 

Thanks for this summary VanBreuk! I shared it on Twitter.

You bet its not. It is a reward or incentive hodling NXT. Much like a polymorphic digital asset. Nxt is turning out to be pretty cool. Hope more of this happen in 2.0

Although I must admin, it has been a good week for NXT price. Almost doubled in a week compared to BTC.

Would like to hear more about the overall marketing plan for Ardor. Should we start to see more articles soon or will it start to come in when the snapshotting hits  in mid July?

Not sure if its a great branding thought, Ardor means sting in spanish. And usually has a bad cognotation, like if somone has a string on an issue, he is mad for it and wants revenge.
Or if someone suffers from a fall and scratch its leg and you apply alcohol to the wound it will create a sharp sting feeling.

NXT made top $100m market cap - 0.1$.
The big resistance for every coin is $1bn.

Assuming ARDR will catch the same performance as NXT it will take it at around 0.05$ (because we have x2 coins total than NXT).
Assuming it will reach 1bn resistance (only LTC touched it in the past and collapsed and ETH broken it for good) that would mean 0.5$.

It is good to know what the ceiling might be

Nxt comes back with a vengeance to sting disbelievers in the arse.

For those wishing to test, here is experimental release 1.9.1e.
It fixed a UI bug in 1.9.0e.

https://nxtforum.org/nrs-releases/nrs-v1-9-1e/

We're very happy to get such a positive response to Ardor and we trust we'll deliver a good platform.

If you are or have a business and would like more information about Ardor and the possibilities of Child Chains, please send me a PM

at the moment i am using NRS Version: 1.8.3 for OS X. When will there be a 1.9-version for OS X available?

At the moment, the 1.9 is still in testing stage: https://nxtforum.org/nrs-releases/nrs-v1-9-1e/
The full mainnet version will be out soon and will be released for Linux, Windows and Mac.
Just hold tight

Multilingual branding is tricky indeed. I can only say it isn't meant with this connotation in mind. Our own main connotation was for passion.

Hi TravelsAsia,

We're having a lot of plans going on Marketing-wise. I don't want to give out too much at the moment, but we're going to try to make it as easy and simple as possible for people to understand what Ardor is and what it can do, as well as introducing them to Nxt since a lot of people who are going to start following Ardor probably don't know what Nxt can do right now.

We'll hopefully also be getting more articles once the snapshotting begins, but we have other things set up along the way and after, whether or not the article rush comes in

Thanks for being interested!

So before the end of the snapshot we could see a $0.1-$1 / NXT?
$1 / NXT would be bloody AWESOME

Hey there TravelsAsia, I'm another marketer on the Nxt team.

First of all, everything Marenkar added is 100% right.

Second, expect to see us here at Nxt/Ardor more regularly. We're professionalizing to handle the influx of interested parties. This will mean more content in the months to come and thereafter.

You're also going to see some pretty innovative moves coming out of the Nxt community. All I'll say is stay tuned till we post about it, we'll be sure to keep this top up to date.

The timing not sure!

But IMO we could see NXT price going as high as ARDR can, so between 0.05-0.5$

This is very rough calculations of course, may mean nothing. The certain is that 1bn market cap is VERY strong resistance.
