forgot I had nxt I bought 2 days after launch...
what's the best thing to do right now?
Not logged into nxt since the day I bought the coins. Should I log in and find out how to claim by ardor or is there some reason to leave it all alone until q3 2017?
Don't have a huge amount I think I only bought about 3 LTC worth but got about 70k nxt back then. Nxt has been up and down in price since then so I probably missed the best time to sell as usual.
If you held NXT in an account since before the summer, those NXT were counted during the July > October Ardor snapshots. So if you had around 70K NXT, that account will also hold now around 70K ARDR assets. These assets grant you the same amount of Ardor main chain tokens when the platform launches this year. About the NXT tokens themselves, they will count again in a one-time snapshot at Ardor launch, to distribute the tokens for the first child chain in the platform, IGNIS, also based on NXT distribution at that moment. Personally I'll keep my NXT until then at least, but of course that's up to everyone.

Ardor vs Nxt functional comparisonSource: https://nxtforum.org/core-development-announcements/ardor-vs-nxt-functional-comparison/Functionality | Nxt | Ardor | Blockchains | Single chain | One parent chain with multiple child chains | Transaction tokens | The same token (NXT) is used for establishing the consensus and providing the security of the blockchain, as well as for the basic unit of value in all transactions | Only the parent chain token (ARDR) is used in the proof-of-stake consensus, and thus provides security for all child chains. Child chain tokens are used as transactional units of value only. | Transaction fees | Transaction fees are paid in NXT only, requiring users to always have NXT in their accounts. | On each chain transaction fees are paid in the native token (coin) of that chain. End users do not need to own ARDR tokens. | Features | Asset Exchange, Monetary System, Aliases, Messaging, Digital Goods Store, Voting System, Shuffling, Data Cloud, Phasing, Account Control, Account Properties | All these features are preserved in Ardor, and are available on each child chain. A child chain can optionally be restricted not to enable some features. The parent chain supports a limited subset of features, as it is intended to be used for consensus establishing only and not for everyday transactions. | Accounts | Each passphrase maps to a single account. Passphrases can't be changed, and there is no wallet file to store. | The same mapping of passphrases to account numbers is used as in Nxt. Accounts are global across all child chains, and an account can have balances in each of the existing child chain coins, as well as in ARDR. | Holdings | There is a single coin (NXT), and unlimited user-issued Assets and Monetary System currencies. | Each chain has its own coin. Assets and MS currencies can be issued on any child chain, and are available for trading globally. Assets or MS currencies can optionally be restricted* to some child chains only. | Trading | Assets and MS currencies can be traded for NXT only. | Assets and MS currencies can be traded on any child chain, with price denominated in the corresponding child chain coin. | Coin Exchange | N/A | A new feature, Coin Exchange, allows trading of child chain coins to each other, and also to the parent chain coin (ARDR). | Dividends | Asset dividends can be paid in NXT only. | Asset dividends can be paid in any of the child chain coins, by simply issuing the payment transaction on the corresponding chain. Additionally, paying dividends in another Asset or in MS currency has been implemented. | Crowdfunding | Crowdfunding feature is available in the Monetary System, but the funds must be collected in NXT only. | Crowdfunding feature is available on all child chains, and on each child chain the funds are collected in the corresponding child chain coin. | Shuffling | Shuffling of NXT, Assets, and MS currencies is available. | On each child chain, shuffling of the corresponding coin, or any Asset or MS Currency, is supported. | Aliases | Alias names are globally unique. | Alias names are unique within each child chain only. | MS Currencies | Currency codes and names are globally unique. | Currency codes and names are unique within a child chain only. | Pruning | Pruning is available for plain and encrypted messages, and for tagged data (data cloud feature). Pruned data are retrieved automatically on demand from designated archival nodes. | Pruning and retrieving of all prunable data is available as in Nxt. In addition, the child chain transactions themselves are designed to be prunable and will not need to be stored permanently or re-downloaded by every new node. The actual pruning of transactions will be implemented later.* | Transaction identifiers | Transaction IDs are 64-bit longs, and are globally unique. | The 64-bit transaction IDs are no longer guaranteed to be globally unique for child chains. 256-bit transaction hashes (sha256 digests) are used instead as transaction identifiers. | Block generation | A "forging" process is used to create new blocks, with the probability of block creation dependent on the account NXT balance (stake). | The same forging algorithm is used as in Nxt, dependent on ARDR account balances only. | Bundling | N/A | A new process, "bundling", is used to group child chain transactions into a parent chain transaction ("child chain block"), which is then included in the parent chain. Any account can play the role of a bundler. The bundling process also performs the exchange of fees paid by users in child chain tokens into ARDR fees accepted by the block forgers. | Phasing | Transaction execution can be made conditional, subject to approval using various voting models. | Same voting models as in Nxt, but phasing is possible on child chains only. Approval transactions can be on a different child chain from the phased transaction, and the by-transaction voting model also supports linking to a transaction hash on a different child chain. | Account control | Accounts can be restricted to use phasing only (mandatory approval). | Same as in Nxt, but accounts under phasing-only restriction cannot submit transactions on the parent chain, as those cannot be phased. | Peer networking | HTTP based, also with WebSocket support, transmitting JSON formatted data between peers. | Completely re-written and optimized, using native Java sockets and binary messages between peers. Block and transaction propagation has been significantly improved, by exchanging and caching information about currently available blocks and transactions between peers and only propagating the missing data pieces. | API | HTTP query APIs, returning JSON formatted response. | Mostly unchanged, except: 1. A "chain" parameter has been added to each API that is child chain specific. 2. 64-bit long transaction IDs have been replaced with 256-bit hashes. 3. All prices and rates that were previously defined relative to the smallest indivisible holding amount ("QNT") are now defined relative to a unit of the holding (share). | Scalability | Transactions are stored in the blockchain permanently, and need to be re-downloaded and re-processed by every new node, which after months and years of operation becomes a significant bottleneck. | All child chain transactions will be possible to prune completely, without affecting blockchain security, thus allowing the blockchain size to be kept much smaller. A new node joining the network only needs to download the parent chain transactions, followed by the latest snapshot of the current system state.* |
* Functionallity marked with asterisk is planned to be implemented in a future Ardor release. All other functionallity is already implemented and currently being tested on a testnet blockchain. Good comparison. About the features, it states "The parent chain supports a limited subset of features". What limited features are available for the parent chain?

Parent/main chain will only forge, no other present Nxt features will be available on it.

So what's the point of Ardor if there is already NXT established for a few years?

Scalability and solves blockchain bloat issues that all other blockchains have. Also businesses dont want to be bothered with security (main chain) and only use the features they want to use: Child chains. Another thing: with Nxt every transaction is payed in NXT. Child chains have their own native token and that means its not pegged to the main chain token.

Really like what I am seeing here, dev I hope for more updates are you get closer to test release for March, and then beyond.
Will you guys get marketing your coin/project more anytime soon...or that not happening until much later 2017???

Marketing is being done continously. Contacts and projects with businesses are being done continously. As far as i know the Nxt team only markets stuff that they know it is safe to publish or as the contacts permit. The Nxt devs always delivers in time and what they promise, unlike alot of other cryptoteams.... But as soon as testnet is there, as it is the first priority of the Nxt Team, i think marketing will move to a much higher level as the functionality can be tried and shown.
