The initial research phase of Nxt 2.0 has passed. Pooling their experience of working on Nxt 1.0 for over two years, Core devs Jean-Luc, Riker, ScripterRon and Petko have already started the first phase of coding for Nxt 2.0.
Coding Nxt 2.0 will take time. The Core Team does not want to launch an overhyped and half-finished system, but wants to make sure the new platform holds up to the high standards you have come to expect from Nxt 1.0. We consider this  to be the de-facto reference standard of stability and performance that a blockchain platform should adhere to.

Initial coding has started a few weeks ago and is expected to take at least the rest of 2016.

Testnet
At the time of writing, the Core Team aims to launch the first version of the Nxt 2.0 Testnet very early in 2017. During the Testnet phase of the software, there will be many rewrites and tweaks based on user feedback and continuous use of the platform. The Testnet phase will last for at least six months to make absolutely sure the first live version will be safe and trustworthy at launch.

Mainnet
At the time of writing, it is estimated that the first live version of Nxt 2.0 will launch in Q3 of 2017.

More details on the implementation cycle can be found in in this post (Word version, PDF version)

Nxt Features

Nxt 2.0 will retain ALL Features of the Nxt 1.0 platform.

Below you will find an outline on how each current feature will be ported to the new IGNIS Child Chain at launch.

Account Numbers
Account numbers are preserved. Since the mapping from secret phrase, to public key, to account id will not change, your 1.0 pass phrase will correspond to the account with the exact same number on 2.0. Existing 1.0 users will be able to login to Nxt 2.0 with their existing passphrase.
The Account table will be global, and each account can have balances in any of the Child Chain tokens, as well as in IGNIS.

Assets
Existing Nxt 1.0 Assets or Asset Transaction History will NOT be ported directly to the IGNIS Child Chain.
Since the Nxt 1.0 blockchain will continue to exist, the Core Team believes it is better to leave the choice of when and how to move to Nxt 2.0 in the hands of the Asset Issuers themselves.
This is probably best done by burning existing Assets, requiring them to be sent to the issuer account in order to issue new Nxt 2.0 Assets in exchange. Or it could be done by each asset issuer declaring a height at which they will take a snapshot of 1.0 asset balances, and then re-distributing those on 2.0.
Assets will be universal on Nxt 2.0, which means that for any Asset, regardless on which Child Chain it was originally issued, any Child Chain that will allow its trade will be able to trade it.

MS Currencies
MS Currencies themselves are also universal, and will be possible to trade on any Child Chain. MS Currency names and codes existing in Nxt 1.0 WILL be ported to the IGNIS Child Chain, including the currency balances for all accounts. Their transaction history will not be.
The Core Team will provide support to any MS currencies that want to transition to a Child Chain, i.e. start a Child Chain with a token distribution based on this MS currency.
MS Currency names and codes will be unique within Child Chains only. This will eliminate the possibility of name squatting across chains. The proposed format for MS Currency names will be CURRENCYNAMECODE.CHILDCHAINCODE, for instance ELEMS.IGNIS.

Arbitrary Messages
No Messages will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Tagged Data
No Tagged Data will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Digital Goods
No products or sales will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Aliases
Existing 1.0 Nxt Aliases will be ported to the IGNIS Child Chain. Just like with MS Currency names and codes, alias names will be unique within their Child Chain only. Globally, aliases will be appended with a Child Chain suffix, to signify which chain they belong to. By default, alias name not appended with a Child Chain suffix will be assumed to belong to the IGNIS Child Chain.

Voting
Voting will be available on each Child Chain.
Open or finished Polls will NOT be ported to the 2.0 chain. Running polls will need to finish on the Nxt 1.0 chain.

Phasing
Phasing will be available on each side chain.
Current Account Control Setting will NOT be ported to the new IGNIS Child Chain.

Leasing
Account Leasing will be retained, but on the Ardor Main Chain only, as only IGNIS balances are used to provide blockchain security (forge). Existing 1.0 Leases will not be transferred but will have to be recreated.

Plugins
Nxt 2.0 will support Plugins, but existing Plugins will need fixes to work with the new Nxt 2.0 platform.

Nxt Old

What will happen to 1.0?
The Nxt Core Devs are committed to providing support, bug fixes and any possible emergency updates for the Nxt 1.0 chain.
It will not be necessary to burn your 1.0 coins to receive 2.0 tokens, and you are free to trade your Ardor Tokens which you will receive after the snapshot period has ended.

The Core Team wants to make migrations to Nxt 2.0 as easy as possible, so is allowing a wide window for making this move.
In short, nothing will change for Nxt 1.0, except that active work on new features will come to a halt. The platform will be actively maintained, so users will still benefit from a secure and well-kept platform.
The Core Team will also provide help and support for users that wish to move their enterprises from Nxt 1.0 to 2.0.

Nxt Token Distribution

Nxt 2.0’s prime innovation is to split the blockchain into a main chain that is used for consensus creation only, and multiple child chains that keep separate ledgers of transactions, each child chain using its own coin/token..

This means that there will initially be two distributions of tokens: one for the Ardor main chain token, and one for the token for the first child chain, IGNIS, to be launched.

The Core Developers recognise the tremendous contributions of the investors and holders of the original Nxt 1.0, without whom Nxt 2.0 would not be possible, and have decided to grant them exclusive rights to these new tokens.

It is important to note that Nxt 2.0 does not mean Nxt 1.0 will cease to exist! The Core Team is committed to continue providing support to Nxt 1.0 for at least one year after the Nxt 2.0 launch, and possibly further.

There will be no burning of Nxt 1.0 needed in order to receive either Ardor or IGNIS Tokens.

Distribution:

Ardor (Main Chain Tokens)
All NXT holders are eligible to receive Ardor Tokens at launch of the Mainnet.
Shortly after the release of Nxt 1.9, (intended to be the last major release on the Nxt 1.0 branch) the Nxt Software will start taking periodic snapshots of all users’ NXT balances, at regular intervals (most likely once an hour), for a period of three months.
The NXT balances in each account will be averaged over this full three month period, and at the end all accounts will be automatically credited with a token representing their Ardor holdings, issued as an Asset on the Nxt asset exchange.
This Ardor Asset will be freely tradeable.
The distribution of the real Ardor coins (to be done at the launch of the Nxt 2.0 Mainnet in Q3 2017) will be based on the ownership of Ardor Assets on the 1.9 blockchain, taken at the point of time when the 2.0 Genesis block is created, shortly before that launch.

IGNIS (Transaction Tokens for the IGNIS Child Chain)
The distribution of the IGNIS Tokens will be based on each account’s NXT holdings at the time of the Nxt 2.0 Genesis block creation.
At the time of writing, the Core Devs have decided to credit 50% of these holdings to each new IGNIS Account, while reserving 50% of IGNIS for funding of the development team, business development and other operations that will need funding to make the Nxt 2.0 project a success.
The Core Devs acknowledge that not including this step in the distribution of 2013 was a mistake in the first place, which has left the project chronically underfunded. As a donation based model is not sustainable, they decided to opt for the allocation of 50% for project development and sustainability.

    Exciting times!!

This is not related to currency exchange just because of this move this thread to relative section mean Altcoin Discussion for better response from members of this community

[kalenen]

I guess this will have a huge effect on price of NXT the coming weeks...

Exciting times

[statdude]

is this still planned for 7/1?

[epitome]

So is it fair to say that they will be launching a new token and the people who are holding NXT will be getting their share for pooling in money in their NXT project.When can we expect these developments ,is there any official date regarding this,i would like to hear more about this project.

[viralz]

I am waiting fir IGNIS to be on board.
It seems it ll be welcomed by peoples,
So the opportunity for IGNIS to grown is big.

[willyum]

NXT is extremely undervalued at the moment. It's rise is very close now back to the top 10!

[mirallas]

So in order to get free $IGNIS do we need to keep $NXT in wallets?

What if $NXT balance is on an exchange?

I'm curious about that too

[SnowRoll]

I also hold some NXT in an exchange.
Any recommended wallet?

[cahkalem]

So in order to get free $IGNIS do we need to keep $NXT in wallets?

What if $NXT balance is on an exchange?

i think this is just like ardor,,
its mean you should hold your NXT on your wallet,,

[anahata]

This is exactly like Ardor. I was holding a good amount of nxt on the exchange to get free ardor. And the price of nxt dumped hard, instead of going up.

Even after getting free ardors, i lost money. They are doing this again with another scam named Ignis. Don't fall for it. The big whales will just dump on you, while you hold your worthless NXT tokens to get worthless Ignis.

[lurker10]

FYI, newcomers!
Did you know you can mine NXT (and buy Ardor with it on the Nxt Asset Exchange!) in the Lucky node project?
Computational and bandwidth requirements are very low - some users run it on a Raspberry Pi.
Run the node 24/7 or as often as you can while you work or play.
Join in with the over 100 nodes that are already in the project.

[statdude]

so the date for the snapshot is 7/1. H0ld

[SnowRoll]

How do I change blockchain location in NXT Desktop 1.11.5?

What is the best and easiest wallet for this airdrop and also to store your coins safely?
I have downloaded the official wallet, but you have to download the whole blockchain there. Is there an easier way right now actually? Where my coins are also safe

Option 1:
You can use the light wallet provided by jelurida (running on a VPS):
https://nxt.jelurida.com/index.html

Option 2 (most secure):
You can also change this line (at nxt/conf/nxt-default.properties):
nxt.isLightClient=false
to
nxt.isLightClient=true
and you won't have to download the blockchain.

Your coins would be fully secure.

hello dev program still run or is closed
how long duration youre project, and when distribution to NXT holder

Alright thank you
The NXT Asset exchange.info is not safe enough?

[spaceinvader10]

so the date for the snapshot is 7/1. H0ld

Can anyone else confirm the date? I've been looking for it and still haven't found the exact date yet.

NXT AND ARDOR are very serious long term platforms that are performing well. I hold a NXT wallet and have never had any problems with it. I only have a little bit of NXT but I am interested to purchase more and will try this week to buy at least 50 1-- more NXT. Ignis will be the first child chain for ARDOR platform so will be interested to see who uses it.

I am currently holding only Ardor. Would you guys sell them for Nxt in order to receive Ignis or would you just hold them for a potential upside?

Many thanks in advance

I really can't understand that.

If I hold my NXT I will get free IGNIS. Why should I invest my NXT in the ICO to get IGNIS instead of getting the free ones?

The free IGNIS for NXT is a lie.

Do you mean Jelurida is a scam?

https://www.jelurida.com/ico

As already promised, approximately half of the IGNIS coins will be reserved and distributed automatically to the NXT holders based on their account balances at the time of the Ardor Genesis Snapshot, at 1 NXT = 0.5 IGNIS ratio.

I can not understand because my native language skill is poor ,,,,
That is, is it OK with understanding that "I buy NXT and put it in Wallet, I get IGNIS?"

[lurker10]

Someone.

Yes, 0.5 IGNIS for 1 NXT.
For instance, if you buy 1000 NXT today, you will receive 500 IGNIS at the end of October's snapshot.
But you must install a wallet www.nxt.org/download (release 1.11.6) and withdraw NXT to your wallet.

[linkadinkadoo]

Will the myNXT web wallet work just fine to get the Ignis coins?

Thank you very much for giving me a very understandable response !!
Then, I will buy NXT at the timing of the low price quickly

They have the ICO dates here:
https://www.jelurida.com/ico

and they said snapshot ~2 weeks after ICO end, so end of October for snapshot.

As so we have some time then to accumulate some NXT and I can just hold NXT in my web wallet and get the free IGNIS correct? I don't have to download the NXT whole client because my computers are not yet that great to store so many wallets. I just want to make sure of that. So will it appear as an asset in my web wallet in the asset section?

Are the NXT people not tired of their so called snapshot. Man, all I see is free money. First ARDOR, now IGNIS, "NXT" what....

If you have a mynxt.info wallet, at the end of October snapshot you will be given 0.5 Ignis for each 1 NXT you keep in the wallet.

Ignis will not appear as an asset in your online wallet, because: 1) it is not an asset, it is a childchain currency on the Ardor platform; 2) it will be distributed at snapshot time, at the end of October. You'll need to use Ardor wallet to see/use it (yet to be released) or perhaps mynxt.info wallet will be upgraded to support Ardor/Ignis, which is known only by mynxt.info devs.

TL;DR if you keep NXT at mynxt.info wallet, wait for October to get IGNIS.

I don't think even core devs know the exact day right now.

[bitcub]

I dont see the point why will I get a free IGNIS if I hold $NXT in my wallet? Is this like having a BCC coin by keeping a BTC before August 1? Or someone will send an IGNIS token to all $NXT wallets? Please explain?

The snapshot will automatically distribute IGNIS to all accounts that hold NXT on the date of snapshot.
The scheme of address generation from passphrase is the same on Ardor, so you will use the same passphrase as the one you use in Nxt to open your Ardor account to find IGNIS there after the snapshot.

[mudasarali43]

Hello every one,
I think next coin is a good coin and good technology and good team work. Next coin is good idea to capture the market and also marketing their new coin I think its great opportunity to get free coins and I hope the new coins will great a good market capitalization and a good marketing step by next coin.

[sonnychiba]

No exchanges supporting the snapshot and distribution?

[malibubaby]

There is a rumor that the distribution of ignis is on August 26 ?
Is this true?

[woogod]

Does Bittrex support ignis snapshot?
Hopefully they do and open IGNIS market on their exchange.

I don't have a lot of NXT, around 220.  Do you think I am better off trying to spend it all on JLRDA->IGNIS in the ICO at 0.55NXT/JLRDA or should I just keep my NXT and get the free 110 IGNIS?

[BellaBitBit]

Does anyone have any confirmation that Bittrex is an acceptable place for NXT when the IGNIS drop happens?

You have to reinstall die NXT client and install it as full node. Scheduling transactions is only available to users of the full client. After you have installed the full node you need to download the full blockchain (downloads automatically). Once the blockchain is downloaded you can schedule transaction.

The Blockchain is less than 3 GB I think, downloading takes a while since it is rather slow. At least it was slow on my PC.
You basically have 2 options getting Ignis.
Buy Ignis during the ICO with your NXT at a fixed rate (depends on the round of the ICO)
Keep your NXT and wait for the ARDOR Snapshot. In this case your get 0.5 IGNIS for 1 NXT in your wallet. The rate at the ICO is better but this way you get IGNIS and keep your NXT.
Since ARDOR and IGNIS is kinda supposed to replace NXT (as far as I understood it), the value of NXT will be hard to predict once the ARDOR network with IGNIS starts.

You dont need to perform the "Scheduling transactions" trick to buy IGNIS. You just open your normal wallet (or go to https://nxt.jelurida.com/index.html) and click on the IGNIS ICO buttom. You can buy IGNIS in less than 2min.


Although the 3rd batch is just finished. Next batch of IGNIS will be available this Saturday. Read all the details here:

Do you need to download full blockchain to get ignis or just hold NXT in the wallet?

[ShroomsKit_Disgrace]

You just need to hold it! No need to be logged in when snapshot occurs.

Thanks for this information. I will hold and wait and profit maximally. $NXT forever.

Thanks for this information. I will hold and wait and profit maximally. $NXT forever.

But be sure you hold all the NXT in your NXT wallet. I dont trust the exchanges and they may not distribute the IGNIS coins.

You just need to hold NXT in your NXT wallet. You will get 0.5 IGNIS per 1 NXT in your wallet. As simple as that. The date will be beginning of November, not confirmed yet. Check it here:

Im done with nxt. It keeps forking. Last time it was ardor. this time ignis? whats the point in all this nxt crap. I think that coin is going doooooown the drain.

is it the most adecuate?

And...what about hold nxt, get 0.5 x and insta-sell, after the snapshot?

[TomCrypto]

Will the snapshot will work on exchange wallets?
Or is it safer to put our nxt on the dedicated wallet?
Will the online wallet on mynxt work?

[Coink Coink]

Few days left to take advantage of the free IGNIS give-away!!

"IGNIS DISTRIBUTION:

The total amount of IGNIS coins issued will be equal to half of the amount of NXT coins existing on the Nxt blockchain at the time of the Ardor Genesis Snapshot, plus 500 M (five hundred million).
As already promised, approximately half of the IGNIS coins will be reserved and distributed automatically to the NXT holders based on their account balances at the time of the Ardor Genesis Snapshot, at 1 NXT = 0.5 IGNIS ratio.
From the remaining 500 M (five hundred million) IGNIS, 420 M (four hundred and twenty million) will be offered to the general public in a crowdsale (ICO), and 80 M (eighty million) will be kept by Jelurida. The funds raised during the IGNIS token sale will be used for the further development, maintenance, advancement and world-wide promotion of the Nxt and Ardor blockchain platforms, as well as protecting the intellectual property of the code base.
The Jelurida team is now happy to announce that the legal, technical and organizational preparations for the IGNIS ICO are entering their final stage. The ICO will start near the end of July or early August 2017 (exact date and time to be disclosed at least two weeks in advance).
The token sale itself will be conducted on the Nxt blockchain platform. A “controllable currency” called JLRDA will be issued and offered for sale in several consecutive rounds. The price of the JLRDA tokens will be denominated in NXT and will increase at each round. Each round will continue one week and there will be at least one week break between subsequent rounds. The first few rounds will be priced attractively compared to the 2:1 snapshot ratio, but the price will increase significantly for the later rounds.
Being a controllable currency, the JLRDA tokens will not be tradeable or transferable between user accounts. The purchased JLRDA currency units will only serve as a proof of ownership and initial IGNIS balance for the Ardor Genesis Snapshot. A controllable currency was chosen to prevent trades from happening while the token sale is ongoing so that purchases of JLRDA directly contribute to funding the development of the platform.
Purchasing JLRDA tokens will require NXT, however users will be able to exchange other cryptocurrencies to NXT conveniently within the Nxt wallet using the integrated ShapeShift and Changelly third party exchanges, subject to availability.
The Ardor Genesis Snapshot will be performed at least two weeks after the end of the last JLRDA sale round.
For 1 JLRDA token the participants in the ICO will receive 1 IGNIS coin at the time of the Ardor Genesis Snapshot."

this is so confusing ? so i should buy nxt and download an next wallet which takes hours to sync ? any better idea ?

Anyone know how to claim the free Ignis? I have the Nxt light wallet downloaded. Ignis sold out their $21M so this thing should take off!

[Str1x]

You have(had) 2 ways to get ignis.
1. Buy JLDRA tokens with NXT via the NXT wallet which automatically will convert to IGNIS tokens after the genesis snapshot.(however the ICO has ended so this is N/A)
2. Hold NXT in your NXT wallet and your NXT will automatically give you IGNIS tokens at the snapshot date.

[bennydoda]

When is the snapshot? How much longer do we wait? I bought 3 BTC worth of NXT for this and its worth 3k USD now. I really want to salvage something

They clóse the web-wallet, u have to download the desktop one and move your Next/jlrda there.

[S.Sandberg]

Do we really have to save funds on a nxt wallet to get these ignis ?

Jelurida didn't stated anything concerning hot wallets on exchanges and other places.

As far as i remember those who held NXT on poloniex and other big exchanges  last year, also received their Ardor tokens.


Why would holding NXT for IGNIS be different ?

First, we haven't received any confirmation, that doesn't mean it won't happen it  just means that exchanges haven't said anything.

Second, the original Ardor snapshot was received in their NXT wallets, this is different from assets being created on an entirely different block chain. It isn't the same, but it also shouldn't be that hard, just different.

[ShroomsKit_DisgraceREAL]

I am waiting eagerly for Bittrex and Polo statements about IGNIS/ARDOR snapshot.

[CoinRi]

Snapshot confirmed 12/25...and Next raising!!

will i receive ignis if i keep my nxt on bittrex?

[Musta010]

Yeah Im asking the samen question, can't find an answer anywhere about it

[Tone147]

I wonder if the NXT I place on the exchange can get the corresponding currency? Does all the exchanges support me to get new coins? ?

[Dullmartini]

I doubt you will receive ignis if you hold coins on bittrex. Just set up the nxt wallet. It doesn’t take long.

Ignis futures are selling for about $0.45 on hitbtc. This could be a good payday for nxt holders!

[Dluretic]

I would like to know that most of my NXT is on the exchange and can I get new coins if I place them directly on the exchange? Still need to mention the money to the wallet can get it?

Dumb this down for me please! Anyone who owns Nxt and keeps them in the wallet on Dec 25th will be automatically airdroped in 2 to 1 ratio??? There will be a snapshot of nxt blockchain and ignis tokens will just appear in the nxt wallet? So we dont have to do anything except holding nxt in a wallet on December 25???

For "air drops" you always need to keep coins in a wallet you control the key of (untill the snapshot happens). Exchanges won't distribute anything to you.

I dont know what exchanges like poloniex/bittrrex are going to do with this airdrop in particular, but the best option are always wallets

Remember the Stellar aidrop and the problems with Poloniex.

Hi all,

I'm new to this forum even though I've been reading it for some time. It just happened to be the first time that I wanted to post some questions. I really would appreciate it if anyone can comment on that!

There we go: if the snapshot is on the 28th of December, does that mean that:

• you could sell your NXTs on the 29th of December?
• Or is any trading on NXT frozen and if so, until when?
• How's that for IGNIS? Are IGNIS coins frozen for trading and if so, until when?

 

Besides that, I'm holding, but that's not all that important I guess 

Thanks and cheers!

[saycryptohello]

so the date for the snapshot is 7/1. H0ld

Can anyone else confirm the date? I've been looking for it and still haven't found the exact date yet.

Have the same question.

Why NXT has frequent ups and downs?

Not entirely sure myself, but I'll share my experience with exchanges giving out based on snapshots style airdrops: they always freeze deposits and withdrawals until the network is stable, or snapshot is confirmed. I don't think trading itself will be frozen since they can rely on the snapshot and just distribute based on that.

The same will apply for Ignis, as soon as credited. They are just crediting, and assuming the system accounting will be enough. Trading should happen almost immediately, but not for deposits and withdrawals.

[KingScorpio]

nxt transaction costs: 1 nxt

Hello. I made an inquire at bittrex. I hope they will answer me before the snapshot. Do you guys use the Nxt wallet? is it safe

Cheers

Did you get any answer from Bittrex mate?

[Xie89]

Hi all,

I'm new to this forum even though I've been reading it for some time. It just happened to be the first time that I wanted to post some questions. I really would appreciate it if anyone can comment on that!

There we go: if the snapshot is on the 28th of December, does that mean that:

• you could sell your NXTs on the 29th of December?
• Or is any trading on NXT frozen and if so, until when?
• How's that for IGNIS? Are IGNIS coins frozen for trading and if so, until when?

 

Besides that, I'm holding, but that's not all that important I guess 

Thanks and cheers!

Not entirely sure myself, but I'll share my experience with exchanges giving out based on snapshots style airdrops: they always freeze deposits and withdrawals until the network is stable, or snapshot is confirmed. I don't think trading itself will be frozen since they can rely on the snapshot and just distribute based on that.

The same will apply for Ignis, as soon as credited. They are just crediting, and assuming the system accounting will be enough. Trading should happen almost immediately, but not for deposits and withdrawals.

The snapshot will be the 28th of December, the actual IGNIS payout will be the 1st of Januari. There's a link with more info which I unfortunately did not bookmark 

I don't know about the freezing of the transactions/trading, couldn't find any info on that..

[boexs231]

how much nxt should be stored in jeluride wallet?
is there a minimum of it?

[supersic]

If you have your NXT in your wallet, and depositing is frozen on exchanges, how can people sell off their NXT that they held for the IGNIS airdrop?

I don't know if this will actually happen, but if it IS frozen, it's just temporary. So after, you can sell.

On a sidenote; I was thinking of selling after snapshot too, but actually I think it'll be wiser to hold. It will dip, but will come back much stronger. NXT has a great future imho

Selling off immediately and buying back in the dip could be a good solution as well. We'll see, transfering to Poloniex NXT does not work for me. It said that the address is not know or it asked me the public key. Any idea where to find the public key for my NXT address on Poloniex?

If you have a Nxt (NXT) balance on Bittrex during the December 28, 2017 snapshot, you will be additionally credited the equivalent amount of Ignis airdrop tokens on a 1:0.5 basis. i.e. 1 NXT on Bittrex held during the on-exchange snapshot will get you 0.5 IGNIS airdrop tokens. NXT held on orders will also be credited. Only the NXT held on your account is eligible for IGNIS airdrop tokens.

[Killcycle]

Hello folks,

I see no issue in this investment.

You would get much money out of nothing. What's the catch?
The both courses will dropped hard after the successful snapshot?

[mehrdadb3]

hello
4 mounths ago i change 55 nxt with 52 jelurida token and now in my balance i see just 26 ignis
whats happand for my 52 jelurida token?
and its in ignis term
4.3 For 1 (one) JLRDA token You shall be entitled to receive 1 (one) IGNIS token when the Ardor platform is launched.
then i get 52 ignis more or no?

[caisa88]

Hello, so for receiving the Ignis Airdrop, is it enough to keep the $Nxt in the wallet at the time of the snapshot ?
Or do i have to claim it after ?

[retampan]

Hello, so for receiving the Ignis Airdrop, is it enough to keep the $Nxt in the wallet at the time of the snapshot ?
Or do i have to claim it after ?

Yes, you must hold your NXT in the wallet. Once the ardor platform launched on January 1, 2018, and its off testnet, you must download ardor wallet with the same NXT address and passphrase in order to claim it. You can also find all your answer here https://www.jelurida.com/ignis-airdrop.

The initial research phase of Nxt 2.0 has passed. Pooling their experience of working on Nxt 1.0 for over two years, Core devs Jean-Luc, Riker, ScripterRon and Petko have already started the first phase of coding for Nxt 2.0.
Coding Nxt 2.0 will take time. The Core Team does not want to launch an overhyped and half-finished system, but wants to make sure the new platform holds up to the high standards you have come to expect from Nxt 1.0. We consider this  to be the de-facto reference standard of stability and performance that a blockchain platform should adhere to.

Initial coding has started a few weeks ago and is expected to take at least the rest of 2016.

Testnet
At the time of writing, the Core Team aims to launch the first version of the Nxt 2.0 Testnet very early in 2017. During the Testnet phase of the software, there will be many rewrites and tweaks based on user feedback and continuous use of the platform. The Testnet phase will last for at least six months to make absolutely sure the first live version will be safe and trustworthy at launch.

Mainnet
At the time of writing, it is estimated that the first live version of Nxt 2.0 will launch in Q3 of 2017.

More details on the implementation cycle can be found in in this post (Word version, PDF version)

Nxt Features

Nxt 2.0 will retain ALL Features of the Nxt 1.0 platform.

Below you will find an outline on how each current feature will be ported to the new IGNIS Child Chain at launch.

Account Numbers
Account numbers are preserved. Since the mapping from secret phrase, to public key, to account id will not change, your 1.0 pass phrase will correspond to the account with the exact same number on 2.0. Existing 1.0 users will be able to login to Nxt 2.0 with their existing passphrase.
The Account table will be global, and each account can have balances in any of the Child Chain tokens, as well as in IGNIS.

Assets
Existing Nxt 1.0 Assets or Asset Transaction History will NOT be ported directly to the IGNIS Child Chain.
Since the Nxt 1.0 blockchain will continue to exist, the Core Team believes it is better to leave the choice of when and how to move to Nxt 2.0 in the hands of the Asset Issuers themselves.
This is probably best done by burning existing Assets, requiring them to be sent to the issuer account in order to issue new Nxt 2.0 Assets in exchange. Or it could be done by each asset issuer declaring a height at which they will take a snapshot of 1.0 asset balances, and then re-distributing those on 2.0.
Assets will be universal on Nxt 2.0, which means that for any Asset, regardless on which Child Chain it was originally issued, any Child Chain that will allow its trade will be able to trade it.

MS Currencies
MS Currencies themselves are also universal, and will be possible to trade on any Child Chain. MS Currency names and codes existing in Nxt 1.0 WILL be ported to the IGNIS Child Chain, including the currency balances for all accounts. Their transaction history will not be.
The Core Team will provide support to any MS currencies that want to transition to a Child Chain, i.e. start a Child Chain with a token distribution based on this MS currency.
MS Currency names and codes will be unique within Child Chains only. This will eliminate the possibility of name squatting across chains. The proposed format for MS Currency names will be CURRENCYNAMECODE.CHILDCHAINCODE, for instance ELEMS.IGNIS.

Arbitrary Messages
No Messages will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Tagged Data
No Tagged Data will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Digital Goods
No products or sales will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Aliases
Existing 1.0 Nxt Aliases will be ported to the IGNIS Child Chain. Just like with MS Currency names and codes, alias names will be unique within their Child Chain only. Globally, aliases will be appended with a Child Chain suffix, to signify which chain they belong to. By default, alias name not appended with a Child Chain suffix will be assumed to belong to the IGNIS Child Chain.

Voting
Voting will be available on each Child Chain.
Open or finished Polls will NOT be ported to the 2.0 chain. Running polls will need to finish on the Nxt 1.0 chain.

Phasing
Phasing will be available on each side chain.
Current Account Control Setting will NOT be ported to the new IGNIS Child Chain.

Leasing
Account Leasing will be retained, but on the Ardor Main Chain only, as only IGNIS balances are used to provide blockchain security (forge). Existing 1.0 Leases will not be transferred but will have to be recreated.

Plugins
Nxt 2.0 will support Plugins, but existing Plugins will need fixes to work with the new Nxt 2.0 platform.

Nxt Old

What will happen to 1.0?
The Nxt Core Devs are committed to providing support, bug fixes and any possible emergency updates for the Nxt 1.0 chain.
It will not be necessary to burn your 1.0 coins to receive 2.0 tokens, and you are free to trade your Ardor Tokens which you will receive after the snapshot period has ended.

The Core Team wants to make migrations to Nxt 2.0 as easy as possible, so is allowing a wide window for making this move.
In short, nothing will change for Nxt 1.0, except that active work on new features will come to a halt. The platform will be actively maintained, so users will still benefit from a secure and well-kept platform.
The Core Team will also provide help and support for users that wish to move their enterprises from Nxt 1.0 to 2.0.

Nxt Token Distribution

Nxt 2.0’s prime innovation is to split the blockchain into a main chain that is used for consensus creation only, and multiple child chains that keep separate ledgers of transactions, each child chain using its own coin/token..

This means that there will initially be two distributions of tokens: one for the Ardor main chain token, and one for the token for the first child chain, IGNIS, to be launched.

The Core Developers recognise the tremendous contributions of the investors and holders of the original Nxt 1.0, without whom Nxt 2.0 would not be possible, and have decided to grant them exclusive rights to these new tokens.

It is important to note that Nxt 2.0 does not mean Nxt 1.0 will cease to exist! The Core Team is committed to continue providing support to Nxt 1.0 for at least one year after the Nxt 2.0 launch, and possibly further.

There will be no burning of Nxt 1.0 needed in order to receive either Ardor or IGNIS Tokens.

Distribution:

Ardor (Main Chain Tokens)
All NXT holders are eligible to receive Ardor Tokens at launch of the Mainnet.
Shortly after the release of Nxt 1.9, (intended to be the last major release on the Nxt 1.0 branch) the Nxt Software will start taking periodic snapshots of all users’ NXT balances, at regular intervals (most likely once an hour), for a period of three months.
The NXT balances in each account will be averaged over this full three month period, and at the end all accounts will be automatically credited with a token representing their Ardor holdings, issued as an Asset on the Nxt asset exchange.
This Ardor Asset will be freely tradeable.
The distribution of the real Ardor coins (to be done at the launch of the Nxt 2.0 Mainnet in Q3 2017) will be based on the ownership of Ardor Assets on the 1.9 blockchain, taken at the point of time when the 2.0 Genesis block is created, shortly before that launch.

IGNIS (Transaction Tokens for the IGNIS Child Chain)
The distribution of the IGNIS Tokens will be based on each account’s NXT holdings at the time of the Nxt 2.0 Genesis block creation.
At the time of writing, the Core Devs have decided to credit 50% of these holdings to each new IGNIS Account, while reserving 50% of IGNIS for funding of the development team, business development and other operations that will need funding to make the Nxt 2.0 project a success.
The Core Devs acknowledge that not including this step in the distribution of 2013 was a mistake in the first place, which has left the project chronically underfunded. As a donation based model is not sustainable, they decided to opt for the allocation of 50% for project development and sustainability.

    Exciting times!!

I'd rather just keep the NXT. Although NXT did get hacked before, it would be a weird point for that coin to work with that coin.

[maldini]

hello, can someone tell me where to place the ignis? how much ignis can i get if saving 1k nxt? I hear the price of 1 ignis = $ 6, is that correct?

[Hopeman1]

I want to know, if I put NXT on the exchange, can I get the corresponding IGNIS? Whether all exchanges support the collection of IGNIS.

[yluna88]

Only the following exchanges have announced that they will also support the airdrop, distributing the IGNIS tokens they receive to their users:

    Bittrex
    AEX
    HitBTC
    Bitcoin Indonesia
    Freewallet
    UPbit
    Stocks.Exchange

[ilic]

Guys I am trying to sync my NXT wallet after a couple of years as i've had no need to until this aidrop thing came up.

Anyway, i've downloaded the latest windows version and its syncs but every 15 minutes or so just loses its connection and doesn't re-connect.  the only way i can get it to re-connect is shutting it down and re-launching the server.

I get maybe 5000 blocks and then it stops.  I've re-started it like 15-20 times already.

i've tired 2 different pcs, same issue of disconnecting still happens.

[burnum]

I have purchased around 3000 NXT about 6 months back and still holding them for long term returns. I have noticed after the snapshot IGNIS coins will be distributed to NXT holders for free. Just want to clarify, do I need to hold the coins into windows wallet or is it fine to leave them at exchanges like Poloniex and Bittrex?

Appreciate if someone can answer to my question pls..

For "air drops" you always need to keep coins in a wallet you control the key of (untill the snapshot happens). Exchanges won't distribute anything to you.

I have my NXT on Bittrex and am planning to leave them there for the 28th snapshot, I want to see how the exchange does transferring my IGNIS to my account, they have proclaimed to support the Airdrop here

https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003571832-Statement-on-Ignis-IGNIS-airdrop-to-Nxt-NXT-holders

 https://www.jelurida.com/ico

An airdrop of this proportion could undo the popularity that Bittrex enjoy's so I think it will go smoothly

[connhagiau89]

IGNIS for free

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ignis/

[COLT601]

Do the coins have to be moved back to the exchange instead of our NXT wallet to get the Ignis?

[burnum]

hello, can someone tell me where to place the ignis? how much ignis can i get if saving 1k nxt? I hear the price of 1 ignis = $ 6, is that correct?

Read through how to redeem your IGNIS at https://www.nxter.org/nxt-news-december-2017-iv/

I do not think they are selling now at the price of $6 but at the price of $3.50 they are being traded or promised anyway, the ICO investors must be old crypto users and see big potential for the first Ardor child, I have a good amount so I have high hopes that it will be a positive experiment for me.

About what "3.5$" are you speaking? The price is 5.8$. It is traded on HitBTC.

[kevoh]

I have my NXT stored on hitbtc exchange waiting for the snapshot on the 28th of this month. I also know they will be a dump but I will be hodling my NXT. I just have this belief it will bounce back.

[bakgwei]

Is there any way to "know" when roughly block 1636363 will be mined on the 28th? Morning, nighttime, evening (lets go with New York time to make it easy for everybody)....

[ubay]

Airdrop is always good, but I do not want to take risks by buying NXT. I know NXT has a lot of great potential going forward, but I prefer not to buy it.

NXT is definitely to be abandoned by their team, and ardr is the future of NXT, so I think it is better to buy arctic NXT ardr

Keeping mine on Bittrex as well.

[krdcwplgf]

Ignis is the latest work of the NXT team, but I really do not understand NXT team on the one hand that work should be turned ardr platform, on the one hand and come up with a ignis.

[dutchkay]

Excited about this Ignis, have really waited long for it. Am also thrilled about NXT too, I want to see more of what can be achieved by the devs.

The Account table will be global, and each account can have balances in any of the Child Chain tokens, as well as in IGNIS.

Assets
Existing Nxt 1.0 Assets or Asset Transaction History will NOT be ported directly to the IGNIS Child Chain.
Since the Nxt 1.0 blockchain will continue to exist, the Core Team believes it is better to leave the choice of when and how to move to Nxt 2.0 in the hands of the Asset Issuers themselves.
This is probably best done by burning existing Assets, requiring them to be sent to the issuer account in order to issue new Nxt 2.0 Assets in exchange. Or it could be done by each asset issuer declaring a height at which they will take a snapshot of 1.0 asset balances, and then re-distributing those on 2.0.
Assets will be universal on Nxt 2.0, which means that for any Asset, regardless on which Child Chain it was originally issued, any Child Chain that will allow its trade will be able to trade it.

MS Currencies
MS Currencies themselves are also universal, and will be possible to trade on any Child Chain. MS Currency names and codes existing in Nxt 1.0 WILL be ported to the IGNIS Child Chain, including the currency balances for all accounts. Their transaction history will not be.
The Core Team will provide support to any MS currencies that want to transition to a Child Chain, i.e. start a Child Chain with a token distribution based on this MS currency.
MS Currency names and codes will be unique within Child Chains only. This will eliminate the possibility of name squatting across chains. The proposed format for MS Currency names will be CURRENCYNAMECODE.CHILDCHAINCODE, for instance ELEMS.IGNIS.

Arbitrary Messages
No Messages will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Tagged Data
No Tagged Data will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Digital Goods
No products or sales will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Aliases
Existing 1.0 Nxt Aliases will be ported to the IGNIS Child Chain. Just like with MS Currency names and codes, alias names will be unique within their Child Chain only. Globally, aliases will be appended with a Child Chain suffix, to signify which chain they belong to. By default, alias name not appended with a Child Chain suffix will be assumed to belong to the IGNIS Child Chain.

Voting
Voting will be available on each Child Chain.
Open or finished Polls will NOT be ported to the 2.0 chain. Running polls will need to finish on the Nxt 1.0 chain.

Phasing
Phasing will be available on each side chain.
Current Account Control Setting will NOT be ported to the new IGNIS Child Chain.

Leasing
Account Leasing will be retained, but on the Ardor Main Chain only, as only IGNIS balances are used to provide blockchain security (forge). Existing 1.0 Leases will not be transferred but will have to be recreated.

Plugins
Nxt 2.0 will support Plugins, but existing Plugins will need fixes to work with the new Nxt 2.0 platform.

Nxt Old

What will happen to 1.0?
The Nxt Core Devs are committed to providing support, bug fixes and any possible emergency updates for the Nxt 1.0 chain.
It will not be necessary to burn your 1.0 coins to receive 2.0 tokens, and you are free to trade your Ardor Tokens which you will receive after the snapshot period has ended.

The Core Team wants to make migrations to Nxt 2.0 as easy as possible, so is allowing a wide window for making this move.
In short, nothing will change for Nxt 1.0, except that active work on new features will come to a halt. The platform will be actively maintained, so users will still benefit from a secure and well-kept platform.
The Core Team will also provide help and support for users that wish to move their enterprises from Nxt 1.0 to 2.0.

Nxt Token Distribution

Nxt 2.0’s prime innovation is to split the blockchain into a main chain that is used for consensus creation only, and multiple child chains that keep separate ledgers of transactions, each child chain using its own coin/token..

This means that there will initially be two distributions of tokens: one for the Ardor main chain token, and one for the token for the first child chain, IGNIS, to be launched.

The Core Developers recognise the tremendous contributions of the investors and holders of the original Nxt 1.0, without whom Nxt 2.0 would not be possible, and have decided to grant them exclusive rights to these new tokens.

It is important to note that Nxt 2.0 does not mean Nxt 1.0 will cease to exist! The Core Team is committed to continue providing support to Nxt 1.0 for at least one year after the Nxt 2.0 launch, and possibly further.

There will be no burning of Nxt 1.0 needed in order to receive either Ardor or IGNIS Tokens.

Distribution:

Ardor (Main Chain Tokens)
All NXT holders are eligible to receive Ardor Tokens at launch of the Mainnet.
Shortly after the release of Nxt 1.9, (intended to be the last major release on the Nxt 1.0 branch) the Nxt Software will start taking periodic snapshots of all users’ NXT balances, at regular intervals (most likely once an hour), for a period of three months.
The NXT balances in each account will be averaged over this full three month period, and at the end all accounts will be automatically credited with a token representing their Ardor holdings, issued as an Asset on the Nxt asset exchange.
This Ardor Asset will be freely tradeable.
The distribution of the real Ardor coins (to be done at the launch of the Nxt 2.0 Mainnet in Q3 2017) will be based on the ownership of Ardor Assets on the 1.9 blockchain, taken at the point of time when the 2.0 Genesis block is created, shortly before that launch.

IGNIS (Transaction Tokens for the IGNIS Child Chain)
The distribution of the IGNIS Tokens will be based on each account’s NXT holdings at the time of the Nxt 2.0 Genesis block creation.
At the time of writing, the Core Devs have decided to credit 50% of these holdings to each new IGNIS Account, while reserving 50% of IGNIS for funding of the development team, business development and other operations that will need funding to make the Nxt 2.0 project a success.
The Core Devs acknowledge that not including this step in the distribution of 2013 was a mistake in the first place, which has left the project chronically underfunded. As a donation based model is not sustainable, they decided to opt for the allocation of 50% for project development and sustainability.

    Exciting times!!

wow now i bought nxt with all my assets, it was out of june that there would be airdrop ignis for nxt, if i knew sooner i could get more NXT at a cheap price.

[VestRidCr]

I have my NXT stored on hitbtc exchange waiting for the snapshot on the 28th of this month. I also know they will be a dump but I will be hodling my NXT. I just have this belief it will bounce back.

HITBTC is a good stock exchange, I like it. But recently there have been a lot of negative feedback that this exchange blocks the withdrawal of users' money. This is already in the news on many sites there. https://www.financemagnates.com/cryptocurrency/news/hitbtcs-customers-facing-withdrawal-delay-no-response-support-team/

[live57]

Did ignis airdrop on Augus 2017? Is this second time of first time?

[burnum]

Did ignis airdrop on Augus 2017? Is this second time of first time?

No this is the only airdrop for ignis.

Is the airdrop over? And what is the purpose of the new coin called Ignis? Will it improve Nxt in any way?

Airdrop countdown clock and ARDR Genesis block is on ARDR website

https://www.ardorplatform.org/

The purpose can be found here https://www.jelurida.com/ico, much too much to try to write here.

[hefo73]

Now that the IGNIS Token Sale is over, the only way to obtain IGNIS tokens before the Ardor platform launches in production is
by holding NXT coins at the time of the snapshot

(The Ardor Genesis Snapshot is planned for Dec 28th, 2017, at block height 1636363), and get 0.5 IGNIS as a free airdrop for each 1 NXT!

NXT can be acquired on exchanges such as Bittrex, Poloniex, ShapeShift, Changelly, and many others.

see https://www.jelurida.com/ico

GO AND GET YOUT IGNIS!

[Crown1]

IGNIS has always been my favorite token, so I bought a lot of NXT in early September, but when the NXT rose so much, I was thinking about selling NXT.

[kevoh]

Well, I will not dispute the negative feedback that users have complained about. I have not faced any issues with Hitbtc exchange so far.

[vanmoreno]

Keep hold and welcome ignis

[letecia012]

Just bought Nxt for 10300sats  I have a question once snapshot is done does distribution of Ignis   on January 1 2018 is automaticall credited to my Trading account in Hitbtc since I bought  my NXT in hitbtc or I need to provide my personal wallet to where my Ignis be deposited.

[kevoh]

Is the airdrop over? And what is the purpose of the new coin called Ignis? Will it improve Nxt in any way?

No, the Airdrop is not over. Since the snapshot will be at block height 1636363. You can follow this link : https://www.mynxt.info/blockexplorer/ to confirm when the block height is reached.  Currently it is at 1635004.

[panghae]

bought mine when it was 7k sats,holding 4btc of it i need ignis coin tomorrow.

[Tomohisa]

Not only NXT is a nice coin but you have IGNIS for free too, good deal.

[Dullmartini]

Ignis is the latest work of the NXT team, but I really do not understand NXT team on the one hand that work should be turned ardr platform, on the one hand and come up with a ignis.

Ignis and ardor go hand in hand. Ardor is the main playform. Ignis is the first child of ardor.

[Best2Invest]

Sorry did not read everything wrote before, but when do you get ignis? Have not received yet. Or it this over 15 hour (at time posting this Ardor website say 15 hour)

Thanks

The initial research phase of Nxt 2.0 has passed. Pooling their experience of working on Nxt 1.0 for over two years, Core devs Jean-Luc, Riker, ScripterRon and Petko have already started the first phase of coding for Nxt 2.0.
Coding Nxt 2.0 will take time. The Core Team does not want to launch an overhyped and half-finished system, but wants to make sure the new platform holds up to the high standards you have come to expect from Nxt 1.0. We consider this  to be the de-facto reference standard of stability and performance that a blockchain platform should adhere to.

Initial coding has started a few weeks ago and is expected to take at least the rest of 2016.

Testnet
At the time of writing, the Core Team aims to launch the first version of the Nxt 2.0 Testnet very early in 2017. During the Testnet phase of the software, there will be many rewrites and tweaks based on user feedback and continuous use of the platform. The Testnet phase will last for at least six months to make absolutely sure the first live version will be safe and trustworthy at launch.

Mainnet
At the time of writing, it is estimated that the first live version of Nxt 2.0 will launch in Q3 of 2017.

More details on the implementation cycle can be found in in this post (Word version, PDF version)

Nxt Features

Nxt 2.0 will retain ALL Features of the Nxt 1.0 platform.

Below you will find an outline on how each current feature will be ported to the new IGNIS Child Chain at launch.

Account Numbers
Account numbers are preserved. Since the mapping from secret phrase, to public key, to account id will not change, your 1.0 pass phrase will correspond to the account with the exact same number on 2.0. Existing 1.0 users will be able to login to Nxt 2.0 with their existing passphrase.
The Account table will be global, and each account can have balances in any of the Child Chain tokens, as well as in IGNIS.

MS Currency names and codes will be unique within Child Chains only. This will eliminate the possibility of name squatting across chains. The proposed format for MS Currency names will be CURRENCYNAMECODE.CHILDCHAINCODE, for instance ELEMS.IGNIS.

I'd rather just keep the NXT. Although NXT did get hacked before, it would be a weird point for that coin to work with that coin.

you can save it in some exchanger like poloniex, bittrex to read more you also visit it here https://www.jelurida.com/ico
there you can find out more about airdrop ignis

[zephxiii]

Ugh i hope this thing pumps before the snapshop for the love of god.

Anyways lol at the bittrex dump just after 6pm. The 6pm was the "get your wallet transfer done by" warning time, not the time of the snapshot which is based on the block height.

[xuan87]

This news has increased nxt price and a lot of people are enthusiastic about this forking, according to them IGNIS is going to worth a lot in the future, and I am also excited to see this pumping because so many exchanger support this forking

[kevoh]

It did increase the NXT price but there has been a big dump afterwards even before the snapshot had happened. And not all were that enthusiastic as they got in when NXT was about 10k satoshis and now it dumped on them with a 10% loss. Infact, in the whatsapp group I am in, some people were asking if this dumping was of NXT was worth the IGNIS airdrop they want to get.

[usarnameistaken]

Yeap, let's hope this doent became useless with all these airdrops happening I don't know what to think aboutl

[qiwoman2]

IGNIS should be a decent token because it is going to be the first child chain for the ardor platformk but the NXT price has tanked and will tank further. I only had 300 NXT and kept it for the airdrop so am hoping to receive my 150 IGNIS today in the NXT wallet. Let's see when it arrives and what it will be worth. I doubt it will be worth a lot in the beginning as everyone will want to dump the free gift, I will hold as you never know it might get pumped in the near future so will hold for the pump.

Yes, I completely agree, I got some NXT on Bittrex and will just hold my IGNIS whenever I receive them, on the long run the price can be good.

[eprocent]

Does anyone know if IGNIS snapshot occurred by this hour? Blockexplorer nxt can not be accessed. I suppose it is highly requested and therefore does not load the date.

[elr01]

I transfered my nxt to the desktop client. This morning my balance is zero. Is it normal ? What does nxt holders have to do to get their ignis (and their nxt back)
I guess : installing the new ardor production platform ? OR just stick to the nxt client and wait for syncing ?

[allanr]

i buy it when the price its high, and now have a little dip. i hope its goin back to normal price or even higher so i can get a little profit.

[Mohamme]

Therefore, I chose to sell NXT at a high price when NXT reached a higher price. I believe that IGNIS can be purchased at a lower price in the future

[bitcoinblog]

Nice to see NXT is getting a Twin Brother 

What is expected price of IGNIS in BTC ? It is showing in Coinmarketcap.

$3.59 USD (-26.51%)
0.00024903 BTC (-18.81%)
3.12 NXT (2.11%)

Is this price remain stay or go down by dumping ?

[elr01]

I choosed to hold NXT, expecting ignis will compensate the nxt losses for long term.
What has been your decision ?

[modtakels]

Whales are manipulating NXT right now,transaction slowed too much we expected the drop at 1636363 but it is so delayed because there is huge btc coming in.

[coineye]

It’s more likely that after the airdrop the price of NXT will fall dramatically. The only question is will it reach such heights someday? Will the developers continue to develop it?

[hefo73]

I choosed to hold NXT, expecting ignis will compensate the nxt losses for long term.
What has been your decision ?

everyone wants to sell his NXT as fast as possible.
noone does research my its own and just asks here how and when to sell
that's too bad. Embarrassed


it seems not many do know, what the NXT platform is for.

details can be found here:
https://www.jelurida.com

bottom line:
EVERY new project set up on the NXT platform has to spend 10% of the new blockchain tokens to existing NXT holders at the time of the snapshot.

my advice: HODL your NXT and buy more if price drops. Wink

ARDOR will not be the last project on NXT so be prepaired for more free tokens.

bad luck for all who do not know this.

this is quite true

[NorrisK]

Holding nxt has been paying off quite well for me.. first the ardor tokens now he Ignis and more to come in the future.

I don't get why people scrble to dump them as fast as possible.

[asayoyaasa]

no shit just lost 6k usd because that coin,now i just want to hold. my heart xD ffffffk

[elbimbo012]

Holding nxt has been paying off quite well for me.. first the ardor tokens now he Ignis and more to come in the future.

I don't get why people scrble to dump them as fast as possible.

Will as expected they thought after the snapshot prices would be dump and it looks like it is what happen right now i'm able to buy nxt at 12400 sats and not able to sold  so I will hold this until when it will wake up again. if it takes months or years we don't know.  i;m hopeful that ignis can offset my loss if ever not even just minimize

[silenthawk]

Really, i don't know anything about NXT.  But I bought them at 0,00008000sts, simply because it dropped 30% compared to yesterday, I continue to bought when the price down 0,00007000sts, and continue bought when 0,00006500sts. I think any crypto down more than 40% will return strongly, I have a little anxiety plus a little scared. Because I put all the assets into the NXT.

[jmalkovich]

When the prices are calculated, it seems to be good decision to take IGNIS. However, price will significantly decrease after the airdrop I guess.

[Romalers]

When will ignis be displayed in nxt wallet?

[itskirkby]

January 1st

[itskirkby]

I got bummed.

I bought at 8000 sats, 12000 sats, 14000 sats and just now I thought wow big dip let's buy.. i bought at 5500 sats and now it's dropping hard again

Any advice?

[itskirkby]

Looking at the Chart I would guess that the real price of NXT should be around 7500 sats around this date (if IGNIs weren't being airdropped), anybody agree?

[junjunsalsalani]

This is hilarious bittrex stopped the trades for about 10mins from 7.6ksats it opens to 5.5ksats they are getting so much profits from the people.I lost about 5btcs for acquiring IGNIS.

[itskirkby]

Yeah I've lost around half a bitcoin.

But I'll gain around 5000 IGNIs

[itskirkby]

If they stay at 3 usd then realistically I could earn back 2 btc from selling IGNIs so it wouldn't be all too bad.

[letecia012]

This is hilarious bittrex stopped the trades for about 10mins from 7.6ksats it opens to 5.5ksats they are getting so much profits from the people.I lost about 5btcs for acquiring IGNIS.

For those who HODL NXT after the Snoptime will get loss a lot and it happen also to me I bought @ 13200 sats then at 12400 sats but still going down and now the price where just around 4k sats i don't have enough coins to buy. but if im able to profit in some of my coin I can buy again even just small amount to average down my loss I hope my plan would be correct then.

[banake]

This is time to sell your NXT
People just want to get free money and dont care about value of coin
Terrible investors!

[Raist]

NXT always have been chose en soi so to say. It is interesting but many years ago when I just came to forum I have received an airdrop of NXT (it was at that time heavily criticized for for elitism) and have forgotten the password.
And this fork can be good for people with enough capital who can hodl NXT for long or even by it on lows. For others it is for now $1 to 1$ exchange.

[itskirkby]

But the question is, do we expect NXT to eventually go back up to say 7500, 10,000, 14,000 sats and if so what our are predictions.. as I expect a lot will have lost a lot of money that they don't want to just hand over.. Most would HODL if they knew there's a chance the value will rise back up.

[itskirkby]

NXT was only 955 sats last month so it'll probably drop to that then we'll all be sad

Thanks for that! So if I understand Bittrexs announcement, we will get ignis tokens but we won’t be able to trade them yet? What can I do with ignis on January 1? Just hodl my airdrop or can I sell somewhere? Anyone know?

[neolite]

I hope Ignis will cost 3$ or more cause I lost on nxt

We need only to wait a month.NXT and Ignis price will be 3x or 4x.Patience is the secret of money.I learned this in 5 years .In this years I lost too many opportunities because I sold to fast.

[seek4dream]

NXT was only 955 sats last month so it'll probably drop to that then we'll all be sad

Lots of things happened during the last month.
Almost every altcoin has increased a lot.
I don't believe Nxt will go down that much.
It is still under development.

I thought that price of nxt will rise before airdrop but it only dropped

[Mosasaur]

I have NXT client  1.11.10 . I not recieved IGNIS yet. May be I need to update client to version 1.11.11, don't you know, brothers?

[neolite]

Watch at poloniex and bittrex.The price on bittrex is much lower than poloniex.I think someone dump nxt on bittrex.On poloniex is 5000 satoshi  and  4413  on bittrex.

[siddartha1492]

Oh, didn't knew about it. So it is line NEO giving gas for the stacked coins. Do we have to download the desktop wallet or we can get IGNIS on browser wallets also?

[seek4dream]

Watch at poloniex and bittrex.The price on bittrex is much lower than poloniex.I think someone dump nxt on bittrex.On poloniex is 5000 satoshi  and  4413  on bittrex.

I believe the dump is almost over. It is time to recover.
For Poloniex, it takes a long time, if ever, to deposit Nxt.
For whatever reason, the price gap will be narrowed soon.

You're very lucky, more people buy NXT at rate above 9k satoshi,
it's very big loss if they are sell it now. No other choice except hold it for long term.

[SnowRoll]

Just realised I've missed the NXT/Ignis post airdrop dump...
Any point in dumping now, after 50% loss over the last 24hrs?

or maybe hope for the price of ignis, at least they can get their capital back. that is what my friend told me, he bought NXT at high price and hope the price of ignis to get his capital back

[eprocent]

For the way the NXT price has dropped dramatically, as well as the way the IGNIS price drops, it's a loss to take part in such drops. I'm curious what Ignis will be in the early days of January. It will be cheaper to get Ignis buying at the price that will be than to get it by buying NXT before the snapshot.

[Xie89]

I have NXT client  1.11.10 . I not recieved IGNIS yet. May be I need to update client to version 1.11.11, don't you know, brothers?

1st of January you will receive your IGNIS

[Dolarin]

Next of course a great value, but it is outdated. On the scene of ardor, I think next you should not buy now. Even for the Ignis.

[flickpicks]

CoinMarketCap now shows futures of IGNIS at $12.94 with a nice Volume Increase and a peak High of $24.
Interesting to see how Bittrex handles their IGNIS Wallet as they say they will wait to  see how trading settles.

[cwiney]

https://cointracking.info/coin_charts.php?cur=IGNIS

It been raising more than 300% now, but i am sure there will be a big dump after it released. But if you hold it for mid or long term i think we can see something better.

[yolanda222]

bittrex and poloniex will add ignis?

[burnum]

Already did at bittrex, and now waiting for Ignis to be credited. I hope Ignis will go at good rates. I will hodl them for a long time for the highest gains.

I am on Bittrex with NXT also, it is the first Ardor child chain so I have high hopes - The NXt team has been around for along time so I am going to hold no matter what - and want to look back at the Ardor chain launch next July with a big smile, I will personally be looking for lenders to take my IGNIS as collateral  to launch a U.S Brick and Mortar biz I have been working on ( I want to keep them though), I love seeing the rise of IGNIS price after the snapshot - And I plan to keep trading NXT as long as I can, I bet we trade until we die.

[CryptoProcent]

I read some news about other airdrop for IGNIS holders. Here all IGNIS holders will be receive 10% BITSWIFT from their Ignis coins  in 1 st January. If someone know about this next airdrop? Thanks.

[yantorobi]

yesterday who hold NXT and get coin IGNIS would be happy because it felt very much profit from IGNIS because the price is high but there is my friend who did not receive it and even now dizzy because the price of NXT down with unheard of

I read in Jelurida an official news about this airdrop for IGNIS holders that will take place on January 1st. You can read more details directly at https://www.jelurida.com/bitswift

[kevindjunaidi]

hopefully IGNIS price can increase the price, so we can get profit because now NXT price is down, so my expectation only in IGNIS.

[michael shikany]

IGNIS is a nice token, but the cost of getting it by air is too high, since the NXT has dropped by nearly 50 percent.

[Pokemon Go]

I've been holding my NXT until the price goes down, but I still have not gotten my IGNIS. if I can know when I will get my IGNIS coin?

[master2#]

Maybe NXT will recover from this huge price drop if another airdrop such as IGNIS is announced , or even without that because they have a stable and functional network

[OrangeII]

well, I think tomorrow is the determination. many lost due to the steep decline of NXT. if tomorrow many do not get IGNIS, I think, much to be a loss because of this. well, let's hope that we all get IGNIS at the current price.

[elitelongbowman]

NXT price is dropping insane. I'm owning over 2k tokens and it make me losing so much money.

[STIKS1911]

I've been holding my NXT until the price goes down, but I still have not gotten my IGNIS. if I can know when I will get my IGNIS coin?

The Ardor Blockchain Platform is expected to launch as planned, on January 1st 2018, 00:00:00 UTC. All NXT holders and ICO participants will find their ARDOR and IGNIS tokens on the Ardor blockchain, accessible using the same account number and password as for the Nxt blockchain.

[Xie89]

NXT price is dropping insane. I'm owning over 2k tokens and it make me losing so much money.

That all depends on how much you bought it for. Maybe you're in profit all this time!!?

Bittrex will record and distribute IGNIS, but I don't know if poloniex will release IGNIS and launch transactions because IGNIS's coinage rules are too strict.

[Hityor_Petar]

Nxt start to grow a little. It’s a good news

I haven’t read whole this text in the first message. Could me tell somebody if NXT is related to IGNIS in some way. I would like to exchange my IGNIS on NXT. Would it be possible to do? Does anybody know?

[Beldon]

up to this moment to my VIP's at all have not received the IGNIS, and there has been no news of when IGNIS will come out, hopefully, that's not the issue just because at least it can help my losses because of the NXT.

[HKNGRL]

i read that it will be dropped by  5th of january  in bittrex, still waiting but the price dropped to 11 bucks already, so i dont think the price will be high by the end of the drop

Yes, bittrex will provide IGNIS for each trader who held NXT at the snapshot that came to block 1636363. 0.5 IGNIS / 1 NXT will be provided. We all hope to be a good price to recover what has fallen from the NXT price.

[dsen31]

It was supposed to be January 1

Do the coins have to be moved back to the exchange instead of NXT wallet to get the Ignis?

just be patient .. you will see..
New Gui for Ardor is great.
I also have my IGNIS there.....

people who get IGNIS tokens are really lucky because the price continues to increase even though the price is still below when the first listing but he has shown that IGNIS token is something special so can not be underestimated

Hold $NXT in your account and get free $IGNIS when the snapshot begin in Q3 2017. Buy low now!

The initial research phase of Nxt 2.0 has passed. Pooling their experience of working on Nxt 1.0 for over two years, Core devs Jean-Luc, Riker, ScripterRon and Petko have already started the first phase of coding for Nxt 2.0.
Coding Nxt 2.0 will take time. The Core Team does not want to launch an overhyped and half-finished system, but wants to make sure the new platform holds up to the high standards you have come to expect from Nxt 1.0. We consider this  to be the de-facto reference standard of stability and performance that a blockchain platform should adhere to.

Initial coding has started a few weeks ago and is expected to take at least the rest of 2016.

Testnet
At the time of writing, the Core Team aims to launch the first version of the Nxt 2.0 Testnet very early in 2017. During the Testnet phase of the software, there will be many rewrites and tweaks based on user feedback and continuous use of the platform. The Testnet phase will last for at least six months to make absolutely sure the first live version will be safe and trustworthy at launch.

Mainnet
At the time of writing, it is estimated that the first live version of Nxt 2.0 will launch in Q3 of 2017.

More details on the implementation cycle can be found in in this post (Word version, PDF version)

Nxt Features

Nxt 2.0 will retain ALL Features of the Nxt 1.0 platform.

Below you will find an outline on how each current feature will be ported to the new IGNIS Child Chain at launch.

Account Numbers
Account numbers are preserved. Since the mapping from secret phrase, to public key, to account id will not change, your 1.0 pass phrase will correspond to the account with the exact same number on 2.0. Existing 1.0 users will be able to login to Nxt 2.0 with their existing passphrase.
The Account table will be global, and each account can have balances in any of the Child Chain tokens, as well as in IGNIS.

Assets
Existing Nxt 1.0 Assets or Asset Transaction History will NOT be ported directly to the IGNIS Child Chain.
Since the Nxt 1.0 blockchain will continue to exist, the Core Team believes it is better to leave the choice of when and how to move to Nxt 2.0 in the hands of the Asset Issuers themselves.
This is probably best done by burning existing Assets, requiring them to be sent to the issuer account in order to issue new Nxt 2.0 Assets in exchange. Or it could be done by each asset issuer declaring a height at which they will take a snapshot of 1.0 asset balances, and then re-distributing those on 2.0.
Assets will be universal on Nxt 2.0, which means that for any Asset, regardless on which Child Chain it was originally issued, any Child Chain that will allow its trade will be able to trade it.

MS Currencies
MS Currencies themselves are also universal, and will be possible to trade on any Child Chain. MS Currency names and codes existing in Nxt 1.0 WILL be ported to the IGNIS Child Chain, including the currency balances for all accounts. Their transaction history will not be.
The Core Team will provide support to any MS currencies that want to transition to a Child Chain, i.e. start a Child Chain with a token distribution based on this MS currency.
MS Currency names and codes will be unique within Child Chains only. This will eliminate the possibility of name squatting across chains. The proposed format for MS Currency names will be CURRENCYNAMECODE.CHILDCHAINCODE, for instance ELEMS.IGNIS.

Arbitrary Messages
No Messages will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Tagged Data
No Tagged Data will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Digital Goods
No products or sales will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Aliases
Existing 1.0 Nxt Aliases will be ported to the IGNIS Child Chain. Just like with MS Currency names and codes, alias names will be unique within their Child Chain only. Globally, aliases will be appended with a Child Chain suffix, to signify which chain they belong to. By default, alias name not appended with a Child Chain suffix will be assumed to belong to the IGNIS Child Chain.

Voting
Voting will be available on each Child Chain.
Open or finished Polls will NOT be ported to the 2.0 chain. Running polls will need to finish on the Nxt 1.0 chain.

Phasing
Phasing will be available on each side chain.
Current Account Control Setting will NOT be ported to the new IGNIS Child Chain.

Leasing
Account Leasing will be retained, but on the Ardor Main Chain only, as only IGNIS balances are used to provide blockchain security (forge). Existing 1.0 Leases will not be transferred but will have to be recreated.

Plugins
Nxt 2.0 will support Plugins, but existing Plugins will need fixes to work with the new Nxt 2.0 platform.

Nxt Old

What will happen to 1.0?
The Nxt Core Devs are committed to providing support, bug fixes and any possible emergency updates for the Nxt 1.0 chain.
It will not be necessary to burn your 1.0 coins to receive 2.0 tokens, and you are free to trade your Ardor Tokens which you will receive after the snapshot period has ended.

The Core Team wants to make migrations to Nxt 2.0 as easy as possible, so is allowing a wide window for making this move.
In short, nothing will change for Nxt 1.0, except that active work on new features will come to a halt. The platform will be actively maintained, so users will still benefit from a secure and well-kept platform.
The Core Team will also provide help and support for users that wish to move their enterprises from Nxt 1.0 to 2.0.

Nxt Token Distribution

Nxt 2.0’s prime innovation is to split the blockchain into a main chain that is used for consensus creation only, and multiple child chains that keep separate ledgers of transactions, each child chain using its own coin/token..

This means that there will initially be two distributions of tokens: one for the Ardor main chain token, and one for the token for the first child chain, IGNIS, to be launched.

The Core Developers recognise the tremendous contributions of the investors and holders of the original Nxt 1.0, without whom Nxt 2.0 would not be possible, and have decided to grant them exclusive rights to these new tokens.

It is important to note that Nxt 2.0 does not mean Nxt 1.0 will cease to exist! The Core Team is committed to continue providing support to Nxt 1.0 for at least one year after the Nxt 2.0 launch, and possibly further.

There will be no burning of Nxt 1.0 needed in order to receive either Ardor or IGNIS Tokens.

Distribution:

Ardor (Main Chain Tokens)
All NXT holders are eligible to receive Ardor Tokens at launch of the Mainnet.
Shortly after the release of Nxt 1.9, (intended to be the last major release on the Nxt 1.0 branch) the Nxt Software will start taking periodic snapshots of all users’ NXT balances, at regular intervals (most likely once an hour), for a period of three months.
The NXT balances in each account will be averaged over this full three month period, and at the end all accounts will be automatically credited with a token representing their Ardor holdings, issued as an Asset on the Nxt asset exchange.
This Ardor Asset will be freely tradeable.
The distribution of the real Ardor coins (to be done at the launch of the Nxt 2.0 Mainnet in Q3 2017) will be based on the ownership of Ardor Assets on the 1.9 blockchain, taken at the point of time when the 2.0 Genesis block is created, shortly before that launch.

IGNIS (Transaction Tokens for the IGNIS Child Chain)
The distribution of the IGNIS Tokens will be based on each account’s NXT holdings at the time of the Nxt 2.0 Genesis block creation.
At the time of writing, the Core Devs have decided to credit 50% of these holdings to each new IGNIS Account, while reserving 50% of IGNIS for funding of the development team, business development and other operations that will need funding to make the Nxt 2.0 project a success.
The Core Devs acknowledge that not including this step in the distribution of 2013 was a mistake in the first place, which has left the project chronically underfunded. As a donation based model is not sustainable, they decided to opt for the allocation of 50% for project development and sustainability.

IGNIS airdrop landed in my ARDR wallet. Looking forward to this being on Bittrex

[Caesar_btc]

Has anyone already received coins for the Bitrex exchange account? I still have not credited anything. Or this exchanger will not spend the accrual of coins?

[Davidbugs2]

No, Nothing received in the bittrex account. I am also waiting for my IGNIS.

[Minnaja]

No, Nothing received in the bittrex account. I am also waiting for my IGNIS.

I'm also waiting for my coins. While they will give us and the price will fall several times. And I would like to sell this coin at an expensive price 

[paulsen]

absolutely right, I've got it on my own. Thus for some days ago, many underestimate the ignis, here's the result of ignis. Thanks ignis

I held some of my Nxt in Bittrex while the snapshot took place.
So it is probable that I will get my Ignis tomorrow.

In my bittrex account at this time (5 January 12:47 UTC) bittrex dont give the afferent numbers of IGNIS but I think will be in few hours or maybe few days, because at block of snapshot I was holder of some dozens of NXT. Will await.

[mirceadinita]

bittrex and poloniex will add ignis?

Bittrex will record and distribute IGNIS, but I don't know if poloniex will release IGNIS and launch transactions because IGNIS's coinage rules are too strict.

Not to much informations about IGNIS on the internet. I also take a look on graphics from coinmarketcap and it seems like a pump and dump ....

There are better coins on market then this.

[hoeda]

Until now, i'm still holding my NXT and ignis. but there's no sign of the alt coin will be rising or pump again. So, what should I do?
I must still hold or sell it?

[DaWidyaa]

I think it's a good idea for a new coin, by giving coin IGNIS for free will attract a lot of devotees. one of them I bought NXT and get 27 IGNIS.

[eprocent]

Like you,  I and more we bought Nxt before the snapshot in 28 december in order to receive 0.5 IGNIS for every 1 NXT, but until now the bittrex exchange not give us nothing. I understand the exchanges need some time to implement the new coin, and will await because in posible in this days exchanges can start the IGNIS distribution.

[RakelA96]

My opinion - you should have sold 50% of your NXT for ~10k satoshis right before IGNIS distribution.
Now NXT price 3.2k satoshis looks not much promising.

My opinion - you should have sold 50% of your NXT for ~10k satoshis right before IGNIS distribution.
Now NXT price 3.2k satoshis looks not much promising.

I also bought NXT over 10k and I expect to recover with IGNIS. In the future in the medium and long term, I think IGNIS will be worth more than just after the distribution. However, we are always tempted to sell immediately to have liquid btc to invest in other coins.

[chromium jedi]

i come here hope to get more information about distribution IGNIS, especially in hitbtc
i already hold some NXT and lose at some price, not much but still loss money when i cut loss 
but it looks like there is no valid information nowadays about this IGNIS
with IGNIS price in $10, i will get profit, but if everyone do sell at once and the price drop, atleast i want to get $4

Bad news! Today, the Ignis price is below 1$, as the distribution of ignis has not begun. As you say, everyone will want to sell to recover from the loss. I think that if we lost it, it would be good to keep Ignis in the hope that his price will rise to the point where we can get something extra.

[rhyoanime]

I participated in the ignis airdrop project. I got some ignis from NXT that I save, but now the price is very cheap. and I have to survive before selling it at high prices. Just HODL

[InvestorBelarus]

Message on twitter. We have to wait 2 weeks approximately. Bittrex: https://twitter.com/Bazzykel19/status/949634987392884736

[eprocent]

I just received an email from Nexter about their desire and efforts to help all of as to receive IGNIS from exchanges that accepted the NXT airdrop in 28 december. You can read exactly what they wrote here at https://www.nxter.org/nxt-news-january-2018-ii/

[GeorgiyBilyk]

Ignis is a great coin for the future! I participated in the distribution on bitrex! But still got nothing! bitrex writes that create some wallets! I hope still in January, we will receive them into their personal accounts! But as is now ignis, I was of course striking: stoimosti 5$, then the price goes up to$ 23 back! and so every day! it is certainly remarkable! but the question?!!!! how much it will cost when we all still credited in my account?!!!!)

[yluna88]

I read somewhere that distribution of Ignis by Hitbtc will take place middle of this month. Can't remember source of the news, though   

anyone know IGNIS distribution in HitBTC ? iam just hold my NXT before snapshot but until now didn't received.. anyone please tell me the date distribution IGNIS in HitBTC. still hold my NXT for recovery my capital, hope february NXT will big PUMP

guys do not lose ponies immediately, there's nothing to be afraid of and panic too. You have to wait at least six months and you will see the real price for this coin. Unambiguously go up.

[saycryptohello]

I'm looking for information, but I have not found an answer anywhere. According to information on Twitter, the distribution of IGNIS should have already happened, but as I see from the comments in social media, no one received anything, I personally keep Nxt on Bittrex and so far I have not received anything either.

[minus_one_crypto]

It seems to me that the whole story with new coins was brought in only to arouse interest in the coin of the NXT. I do not think that now the IGNIS coin will be successful and expensive.

[l4s7re4lg4mer]

Depends on quality

[proexcept]

It seems to me that IGNIS very negatively influences to the  NEXT. The price has fallen very much and I do not see an uptrend in the near future. It already starts to frighten me, even though I believe in NEXT.

[eprocent]

Because there are many who have bought NXT to receive IGNIS, it's obvious why both NXT and IGNIS have such oscillating prices. Both will go down for a while, but within 3-6 months they will begin to stabilize, gradually climb to values ​​where the holders will make good profit.

[sangwookie]

I am still trying to get mine from bittrex. argh. I wish they would move faster on this. Makes me lose faith on the exchange.

I agree with you, best strategy for NXT was 50% sell + 50% hold for IGNIS airdrop. Right before IGNIS distribution, NXT price was ~10 000 satoshis, now it is dumped x3.5, right to 2900 satoshis...

[nuggetbram]

Whales are manipulating NXT right now,transaction slowed too much we expected the drop at 1636363 but it is so delayed because there is huge btc coming in.

It was expected to be dumped hard.
I still have thousands of Nxt, which is worth holding long term.
Ardor/Ignis will be very big in 2018.

[sangwookie]

I am still trying to get mine from bittrex. argh. I wish they would move faster on this. Makes me lose faith on the exchange.

it is nit the exchange fault that IGNIS do not push a request at bittrex to add their coin there. Adding it to bittrex costs money and work, ignis is doing ntgh , they must add it to the serious exchange like Bittrex is, instead they put it to other exchanges.

Then they should have told holders of NXT to get a wallet and keep the coins there. I think the exchanges are going to have to be regulated or hopefully a central, decentralized exchange comes around. If the exchanges didn't exist then there wouldn't be so much government scrutiny.

[MasterMoon]

Does anyone already received IGNIS from Bittrex exchange?

[Lionel]

Does anyone already received IGNIS from Bittrex exchange?

I havent received them..
What about you?

This looks like a joke. I held my NXT just to get my IGNIS...

[Buyingallcoinsz]

Hmmmmm you guys probably did not keep your NXT long enough for the snpashot to be able to claim your free ignis. Did you seell too early? Perhaps this is the case for everyone not getting itl.

[ilya_gr]

Tell me pls, when will be the distribution of IGNIS on Bittrex?On CMC IGNIS is trading only in few exchanges, and not Bittrex

[MasterMoon]

Tell me pls, when will be the distribution of IGNIS on Bittrex?On CMC IGNIS is trading only in few exchanges, and not Bittrex

We still don't have any idea because bittrex didn't give us any statement about it. We are also waiting for our IGNIS I hope it will come soon. Just be patient.

[Lionel]

Uhm.. i still have my NXT, is that not long enough?

[MasterMoon]

Ardor is up now anyone who receive their free IGNIS on bittrex exchange?

[yukseljunk]

Ardor is up now anyone who receive their free IGNIS on bittrex exchange?

Ardor was telling they were stuck because of exchanges not distributing IGNIS. So there is some hope?
Loosy exchanges should have enough of skim, that they proved us not to trust them for forks/airdrops ever again!

[RakelA96]

but till now i don't get my ignis in my account bittrex and hitbtc, i don't know what they problem. stay hold my NXT in both exchange. hope that is will faster distributed, my capital stuck 50% in there
anyone know news about distibution?

[Mankov]

Hi,

I`d like to buy som Ignis, too but I dont`want to buy on Aex or Hitbtc. And Bitcoin Indonesia only works with rupy.

How can I get some Ignis? Did I understand it right, if I buy the NXT Coin it will changed automatically to Ignis, later?

[seek4dream]

The snapshot was taken last month. If you had Nxt in your wallet then, you should have gotten your Ignis.
But now, you can't get Ignis by hold Nxt anymore.
If you don't like these exchanges, you can wait for bittrex, which should be ready soon.

[Wong Kalong]

IGNIS is indeed true is already out and it really makes crying because after the appearance of the IGNIS, the NXT then became increasingly fall and even the price of IGNIS itself is almost the same with the NXT. the IGNIS makes a really sad

I believe that is only for the time being.
After the snapshot and launch of Ardor/Ignis, things aren't going so well.
Bittrex is lagging behind in distribution and trading.
We should hold it, waiting for good news.

[budisan]

be patient. ignis price will be rise.....i bought 7000 ignis at 5000 rupiah (around 0,39 usd) price....and it's very cheap i think....i know how indonesian people trade...there is always a panic sell when btc down so.....its time to buy ignis  with cheaper price....once bittrex open market...it will dump first but it will be recovery after that....just like what happen with another airdrop (ardor, bch, etc)

[Mzai620]

FYI, newcomers!
Did you know you can mine NXT (and buy Ardor with it on the Nxt Asset Exchange!) in the Lucky node project?
Computational and bandwidth requirements are very low - some users run it on a Raspberry Pi.
Run the node 24/7 or as often as you can while you work or play.
Join in with the over 100 nodes that are already in the project.

[cryptopusa]

Seems like bittrex is done,they scammed us they announced it first that we will receive the drop on january first, but didnt happen 20days have passed no announcement or any status update today i will move my holdings to binance which has more reliable and has less fees than this crap exchange.

Come on! Let's be patience I know bittrex will have a solution regarding this problem. We don't yet if the problem is on bittrex side or Ardor side. Hopefully our IGNIS will come soon.

[bakgwei]

Has anyone heard from HitBTC, meaning as to when they will finally credit the Ignis token? No news at all, and no coins :-(

[ViolaMarantina]

bittrex still pending my account registration 
btw if ignis price drop to follow coinmarketcap.com.. it will be bad for me

[MasterMoon]

Whales are manipulating NXT right now,transaction slowed too much we expected the drop at 1636363 but it is so delayed because there is huge btc coming in.

Yes whales are the ones who manipulated so they can keep the price of NXT low so they can buy as many as they can. Even though the volume of NXT at the time before the snapshot is very high NXT should atleast reach around 16k-20k sats but whales stopped it.

[cryptocrocs]

Bittrex is a scam 3weeks have passed but still we dont have the promised IGNIS drop,i already moved my holdings to binance.

[mbakruroh]

holding nxt and getting the ignis is a good thing because we get extra coins. but there is a market that still has not given certainty related to additional ignis coin ie bittrex. currently nxt and ignis prices have decreased hopefully can rise to high level.

[cryptodevs]

NXT dropped doesnt happened in bittrex its been 3weeks since Bittrex romised the we will receive the IGNIS but it didnt happen,so i decided to switch a better exchange than bittrex which is binance.

[donacal]

this fork story is getting longer for too long I'm still waiting for IGNIS. why on i hitbtc I am not credited with IGNIS?

[ExBBBBB]

NXT dropped doesnt happened in bittrex its been 3weeks since Bittrex romised the we will receive the IGNIS but it didnt happen,so i decided to switch a better exchange than bittrex which is binance.

Don't worry Jerulida and Bittrex already gave out statement about IGNIS they already resolved the problem so we will expect soon that IGNIS will list on Bittrex exchange and for those who held NXT at the time of snapshot will be rewarded their IGNIS.

[monika27]

Airdrop is always good, but I do not want to take risks by buying NXT. I know NXT has a lot of great potential going forward, but I prefer not to buy it.

[bakgwei]

This is slowly but steadily becoming a joke. I had NXT in my wallet on HitBTC at the time of the fork. No IGNIS have been distributed a month now after the fork, and the price has been falling steadily. Really upset about the way this is goind - especially the intransparant communication. I am not even sure where the fault lies - the exchange or the dev team?

[padcoin]

I'm tired to wait for IGNIS, anyway you know as soon as the crypto will airdropped, the price will collapse, can you see any future for IGNIS/NXT/ARDOR?

[hefo73]

I'm tired to wait for IGNIS, anyway you know as soon as the crypto will airdropped, the price will collapse, can you see any future for IGNIS/NXT/ARDOR?

They will start trading this week (if information is correct)

I hope that we will get our Ignis coins soon..as from Nxt wallet as from Bittrex. Sometime it takes long time to get coins after hardfork

If you held NXT in NXT-Wallet, you already received IGNIS.
And also you should see them now on Bittrex.

Now we have to wait, it is about 4904 SAT @ Bittrex.
HODL!

[Soyabeans]

IGNIS on bittrex guys and it's already tradable now. I know we didn't expect the price of IGNIS like that but I hope everyone who participated on snapshot last dec 28, 2017 already got your IGNIS. Best of luck everyone.

[yluna88]

Good to hear that... Hitbtc has not distributed the promised IGNIS airdrop for holding NXT, still waiting...

Hitbtc is becoming a really bad exchange. It has been 6 weeks since the snapshot/ airdrop, and still no tokens have been credited. How can you trust such an exchange with your money?

[bakgwei]

Update: 4 1/2 months and still no tokens credited from the December airdrop on HitBTC...

[tonylewisverdu]

Update: 4 1/2 months and still no tokens credited from the December airdrop on HitBTC...

maybe the problem lies with hitbtc.. in bittrex they already gave ignis couple of months ago..

Still nothing. I checked with Hitbtc last week again and they told me that all IGNIS have already been credited. I asked them to have a detailed look, as I havent received mine so far...

[popotao99]

I love crypto because I was able to quit my job (which I hated) and gained freedom. My income from crypto now many times more than it was. I think that many people have changed their lives for the better when they came to crypto.

[bamita138]

maybe hope for the price of ignis, at least they can get their capital back. that is what my friend told me, he bought NXT at high price and hope the price of ignis to get his capital back

[BTCdude007]

Very disappointing that the price fell.
It was necessary to sell immediately, there would be a profit.

[REjumik]

Be that as it may, the inquiry is, do we anticipate that NXT will in the end return up to state 7500, 10,000, 14,000 sats and if so what our are expectations.. as I expect a ton will have lost a considerable measure of cash that they would prefer not to simply hand over.. Most would HODL on the off chance that they knew there's a shot the esteem will ascend go down.

[Hoxysado]

Hold $NXT in your account and get free $IGNIS when the snapshot begin in Q3 2017. Buy low now!

The initial research phase of Nxt 2.0 has passed. Pooling their experience of working on Nxt 1.0 for over two years, Core devs Jean-Luc, Riker, ScripterRon and Petko have already started the first phase of coding for Nxt 2.0.
Coding Nxt 2.0 will take time. The Core Team does not want to launch an overhyped and half-finished system, but wants to make sure the new platform holds up to the high standards you have come to expect from Nxt 1.0. We consider this  to be the de-facto reference standard of stability and performance that a blockchain platform should adhere to.

Initial coding has started a few weeks ago and is expected to take at least the rest of 2016.

Testnet
At the time of writing, the Core Team aims to launch the first version of the Nxt 2.0 Testnet very early in 2017. During the Testnet phase of the software, there will be many rewrites and tweaks based on user feedback and continuous use of the platform. The Testnet phase will last for at least six months to make absolutely sure the first live version will be safe and trustworthy at launch.

Mainnet
At the time of writing, it is estimated that the first live version of Nxt 2.0 will launch in Q3 of 2017.

More details on the implementation cycle can be found in in this post (Word version, PDF version)

Nxt Features

Nxt 2.0 will retain ALL Features of the Nxt 1.0 platform.

Below you will find an outline on how each current feature will be ported to the new IGNIS Child Chain at launch.

Account Numbers
Account numbers are preserved. Since the mapping from secret phrase, to public key, to account id will not change, your 1.0 pass phrase will correspond to the account with the exact same number on 2.0. Existing 1.0 users will be able to login to Nxt 2.0 with their existing passphrase.
The Account table will be global, and each account can have balances in any of the Child Chain tokens, as well as in IGNIS.

Assets
Existing Nxt 1.0 Assets or Asset Transaction History will NOT be ported directly to the IGNIS Child Chain.
Since the Nxt 1.0 blockchain will continue to exist, the Core Team believes it is better to leave the choice of when and how to move to Nxt 2.0 in the hands of the Asset Issuers themselves.
This is probably best done by burning existing Assets, requiring them to be sent to the issuer account in order to issue new Nxt 2.0 Assets in exchange. Or it could be done by each asset issuer declaring a height at which they will take a snapshot of 1.0 asset balances, and then re-distributing those on 2.0.
Assets will be universal on Nxt 2.0, which means that for any Asset, regardless on which Child Chain it was originally issued, any Child Chain that will allow its trade will be able to trade it.

MS Currencies
MS Currencies themselves are also universal, and will be possible to trade on any Child Chain. MS Currency names and codes existing in Nxt 1.0 WILL be ported to the IGNIS Child Chain, including the currency balances for all accounts. Their transaction history will not be.
The Core Team will provide support to any MS currencies that want to transition to a Child Chain, i.e. start a Child Chain with a token distribution based on this MS currency.
MS Currency names and codes will be unique within Child Chains only. This will eliminate the possibility of name squatting across chains. The proposed format for MS Currency names will be CURRENCYNAMECODE.CHILDCHAINCODE, for instance ELEMS.IGNIS.

Arbitrary Messages
No Messages will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Tagged Data
No Tagged Data will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Digital Goods
No products or sales will be ported from 1.0 to 2.0

Aliases
Existing 1.0 Nxt Aliases will be ported to the IGNIS Child Chain. Just like with MS Currency names and codes, alias names will be unique within their Child Chain only. Globally, aliases will be appended with a Child Chain suffix, to signify which chain they belong to. By default, alias name not appended with a Child Chain suffix will be assumed to belong to the IGNIS Child Chain.

Voting
Voting will be available on each Child Chain.
Open or finished Polls will NOT be ported to the 2.0 chain. Running polls will need to finish on the Nxt 1.0 chain.

Phasing
Phasing will be available on each side chain.
Current Account Control Setting will NOT be ported to the new IGNIS Child Chain.

Leasing
Account Leasing will be retained, but on the Ardor Main Chain only, as only IGNIS balances are used to provide blockchain security (forge). Existing 1.0 Leases will not be transferred but will have to be recreated.

Plugins
Nxt 2.0 will support Plugins, but existing Plugins will need fixes to work with the new Nxt 2.0 platform.

Nxt Old

What will happen to 1.0?
The Nxt Core Devs are committed to providing support, bug fixes and any possible emergency updates for the Nxt 1.0 chain.
It will not be necessary to burn your 1.0 coins to receive 2.0 tokens, and you are free to trade your Ardor Tokens which you will receive after the snapshot period has ended.

The Core Team wants to make migrations to Nxt 2.0 as easy as possible, so is allowing a wide window for making this move.
In short, nothing will change for Nxt 1.0, except that active work on new features will come to a halt. The platform will be actively maintained, so users will still benefit from a secure and well-kept platform.
The Core Team will also provide help and support for users that wish to move their enterprises from Nxt 1.0 to 2.0.

Nxt Token Distribution

Nxt 2.0’s prime innovation is to split the blockchain into a main chain that is used for consensus creation only, and multiple child chains that keep separate ledgers of transactions, each child chain using its own coin/token..

This means that there will initially be two distributions of tokens: one for the Ardor main chain token, and one for the token for the first child chain, IGNIS, to be launched.

The Core Developers recognise the tremendous contributions of the investors and holders of the original Nxt 1.0, without whom Nxt 2.0 would not be possible, and have decided to grant them exclusive rights to these new tokens.

It is important to note that Nxt 2.0 does not mean Nxt 1.0 will cease to exist! The Core Team is committed to continue providing support to Nxt 1.0 for at least one year after the Nxt 2.0 launch, and possibly further.

There will be no burning of Nxt 1.0 needed in order to receive either Ardor or IGNIS Tokens.

Distribution:

Ardor (Main Chain Tokens)
All NXT holders are eligible to receive Ardor Tokens at launch of the Mainnet.
Shortly after the release of Nxt 1.9, (intended to be the last major release on the Nxt 1.0 branch) the Nxt Software will start taking periodic snapshots of all users’ NXT balances, at regular intervals (most likely once an hour), for a period of three months.
The NXT balances in each account will be averaged over this full three month period, and at the end all accounts will be automatically credited with a token representing their Ardor holdings, issued as an Asset on the Nxt asset exchange.
This Ardor Asset will be freely tradeable.
The distribution of the real Ardor coins (to be done at the launch of the Nxt 2.0 Mainnet in Q3 2017) will be based on the ownership of Ardor Assets on the 1.9 blockchain, taken at the point of time when the 2.0 Genesis block is created, shortly before that launch.

IGNIS (Transaction Tokens for the IGNIS Child Chain)
The distribution of the IGNIS Tokens will be based on each account’s NXT holdings at the time of the Nxt 2.0 Genesis block creation.
At the time of writing, the Core Devs have decided to credit 50% of these holdings to each new IGNIS Account, while reserving 50% of IGNIS for funding of the development team, business development and other operations that will need funding to make the Nxt 2.0 project a success.
The Core Devs acknowledge that not including this step in the distribution of 2013 was a mistake in the first place, which has left the project chronically underfunded. As a donation based model is not sustainable, they decided to opt for the allocation of 50% for project development and sustainability.

thank you so mucn for the information and i think that you have made great job and  a very long one, so thanx!

Most would HODL on the off chance that they knew there's a shot the esteem will ascend go down.

i think that we should gice a try for new coins and  new projects, so i think tou will find some of them necessaery

[kalutharabanda]

I am on Bittrex with NXT additionally, it is the principal Ardor tyke chain so I have high expectations - The NXt group has been around for along time so I am will hold regardless of what - and need to glance back at the Ardor chain dispatch next July with a major grin, I will by and by search for banks to take my IGNIS as insurance to dispatch a U.S Brick and Mortar business I have been taking a shot at ( I need to keep them however), I adore seeing the ascent of IGNIS cost after the preview - And I intend to continue exchanging NXT as long as I can, I wager we exchange until the point when we kick the bucket.
