NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[Fatih87SK]

I'm back, only 30 pages behind!!! 

Oh, BTW.
I just received this:

Hi, i have a webdesign-agency with 5 employes. How can i helping the NXT-Community (for free)?

We are fokused on Screendesign, UI-Design, Responsive Design. I will help to make a clean and structure corporate design, a better and consistent cover over the NXT project. More idendity is more professional and more trust building.

Are we interested in having this guy and his agency on board? Or should I tell him, that we have given up? 

Please discuss. I'll be back and join in later. 

Maybe they can give a fresh and modern look to http://www.nxtcrypto.org/.

Go get them!

Could be a deadcat bounce. Still a lot of selling power.

Once the exchange goes live a lot of new people will show interest in NXT. There are some people worried about paper losses too much IMO. It's only a loss if you sell for less than you bought. I'm sitting on paper losses too, but I'm not going to sell until at least 1 NXT=1USD. The deadcat bounce is Auroacoin IMO

I would like for us to try and come up with a "NXT Mission Statement".

http://www.norcblueprint.org/uploads/File/Mission_Statement_Guidelines.pdf
http://www.fastcompany.com/1400930/how-write-mission-statement-isnt-dumb

From the links above:

"A mission statement defines in a paragraph or so any entity's reason for existence. It embodies its philosophies, goals, ambitions and mores. Any entity that attempts to operate without a mission statement runs the risk of wandering through the world without having the ability to verify that it is on its intended course."
 
I suggest two rules to this exercise.  

First, posts containing your personal vision of the NXT mission statement contain no elaboration, explanation or follow-on text.  The whole point of a mission statement is that it is short and self-contained, and is supposed to stand alone.

Second, say or post NOTHING about anybody else's NXT Mission Statement, only modify and resubmit your own based on what you see others write.

This is a brainstorming exercise.  We will probably end up with several variants of a mission statement.  This may help us identify and understand different "subcultures" in our community and who belongs to them.  

Or this may just be an exercise in futility, I dunno.

Here's a first draft of "My NXT Mission Statement":  

The mission of NXT is to become humanity's most widely used blockchain-based currency for the purchase of goods and services online.

Think there needs to be more?  This mission statement is a blockchain of sorts - add to (or fork) it!

I agree. It's amazing how jittery many in this young community seem to be about price. The alt coin world is so spoiled with the idea of instantaneous profits. Not many think long term and amazingly even long term is defined most of the time as <12 months.

Don't forget the most made mistake about this; people often claim they have a good Mission Statement, but actually it is a Vision Statement.

Maybe we can have both. But it's important that we can recognise which statement belongs to a Mission Statement.

Mission Statement

NXT is creating the infrastructure for the most user friendly digital money and payment system the world has ever seen. NXT is free from abuse and manipulation by big corporations & government. NXT is creating the freedom for all people everywhere to use 'money' to improve their life as they see fit!

Thats because of all the "every type of altcoin going" pump and dump mentality. People are starting to realise nxt has never been a pump and dump coin. Now all you see is pumping and dumping of the alt clones to transfer to nxt. If anything Nxt has given a purpose for the alt clones and thats is pumping them to dump for nxt. alts are a way for people to obtain nxt without putting up fiat. imo any ways. i personally mine alts to swap for ghs at cex or buy nxt with em and thats it. nxt is my gold stash lol

And now we have 2 pools www.hashrate.org and www.nxtp00l.org i dont even have to handle to alts lol

who runs the p00l site? why do most addresses end with 3 zeros? might this be a bug and he pays out to invalid addresses?

We should support them (with better designs, developers) and market the hell out of them.

We are fokused on Screendesign, UI-Design, Responsive Design. I will help to make a clean and structure corporate design, a better and consistent cover over the NXT project. More idendity is more professional and more trust building.

we need a website similar to mynxt.org, but still better, for nxt.org

it could be similar to this site: http://www.tectonica.co/

Also right now I use a one page for different kinds of people. I am sending this page to journalists: http://justpaste.it/nxt-introduction-4-journalists
and this to shops: http://justpaste.it/accept-nxt

So it might be implemented somewhere, but with simple design around..

I'm working on the newsletter (had to take some time off Nxt because of my "real job" )

Please check if the info here is up to date: http://nxter.org/nxt-mining/

If it is, feel free to share. If not - let me know, and I'll update it immediately.
