NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

Good luck. Too bad it wasn't made clear previously. Perhaps the owner of that null account wouldn't have received so many unintended donations.

Unbelievable that this hasn't been addressed after months.

Why don't you accept some coins and try out some of the cool features, that NO other coin has?

Seriously unimpressed with the arrogant attitude of most of the next supporters here. If this is such a tiny problem then why does the null account have so many transactions?

Because some people send coins there to "donate" them. Sounds strange, but it is very easy to donate coins that way instead of just abandoning your account.

PS: also in the last 30 days there was only your transaction.

You mean someone that wants to donate to the millionares that created this thing can't be bothered to enter an account #?!? Color me skeptical. Do we even know who owns that non account?

No one and everyone owns it, that's the point of donating to it.

everyone owns that account, you know how to enter it yourself

If you send NXT there, than the first person to detect that, will send the NXT to his own account.  In your case the NXT went to this account: http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=3000&acc=15403621473314136443

Maybe he runs a program that checks the "easy" account numbers for incoming transfers.

Sweet. I'm sure I'm the first to unintentionally donate.

This coin just gets worse and worse. It's like reading about ripple.

Wonder if "he" runs a program to check for easy passwords that aren't blank as well.

I think this is so really stupid argument. If I want to donate it, I would rather donate it to someone I know, rather to random hacker running a bot by sending them to "null" account.

I doubt anyone sending nxt to "null" account are donating it. They are all new users making the same mistake.  There is no point in arguing it's  not a problem. Brain Wallet by itself is a for very advanced users who understand entropy.  

It should be make much harder for users to just enter any random (or nothing) as pass phrase

It was done a few times in the beginning, but yes most are just mistakes!

The brainwallet problem is know since the first day of the launch, where i was the first to point out it's problem. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=303898.msg3695236#msg3695236


The current state of wesley client is better than original client, but it's still not enough.
We really need a wallet.dat.


My 40,000 NXT bounty still hold. (When wallet.dat is integrated in official client AND is the default option )

[solarion]

Why is it so hard to eliminate? Just changing the OP would take 5 seconds of someone's time. I wouldn't have chosen that download if it wasn't on the first page of this thread.

You don't build the reputation of a new coin by letting poorly crafted software screw newbies out of their new coins.

I have sent some <10 NXTs to this account to get rid of them in the beginning of NXT to test things. Now i just donate to specific guys. But you can actually see, that there are nearly NO transactions to easy accounts anymore.

I will get the OP changed ok?

It's ok with me. Can anyone explain why it wasn't changed months ago? How long has a superior windows client existed?

Just checked, it is right there?



What exactely do you want to have changed?

[Eadeqa]

There is wallet.dat with offspring.

The built-in client (which as has been said many times was supposed to be temp) can't have wallet.dat as it runs from a browser with restricted access to hardrive.  

[TwinWinNerD]

Also one of the places newbies start out is the subreddit /r/NXT, the first link directly leads to the nxtclient.org link



I don't really know, what more we can do. (Besides changing the nxtcrypto.org page)

[solarion]

<sigh>

The level of arrogance here is repulsive.

Change this:



I just snapped that btw so don't tell me noobs aren't being led to a sh1t client.

I've downloaded exactly one next client ever and it's crap. I was led to that download link by the OP in this very thread.

yes but you said that the OP doesn't say anything about alternative clients, and there is a link with a full collection of all.

We will obviously not remove the link the core server client?!?

I didn't actually. Can you provide a quote of me saying that? I won't hold my breath.

If I'd known the client I was downloading was so poorly written it'd display someone else's account number so readily I'd have been more careful or downloaded a superior client.

n/m pretty sure I'm wasting my time with this mess of a coin. I'll move on to the next 100% premine.

personally I think this solarion troll is less funny than Emule,
even the FCs had more fun factor,
or could this be one of the FCs
