NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[joefox]

I suggested a plan of action a while back, I guess non of the marketing committee members thought it was a valid solution. Theres is a clear difference between strategy and tact

There's also a clear difference between what everyone thinks the marketing committee should be doing, and what it's actually tasked with doing.  

The committees (all three of them) were elected to manage funds.  That's it.  Collective memory is fuzzy in this regard, which is unfortunate.

All of the committees, in their own way, are moving past their mandate, under their own initiatives, to architect bounties and other means of spurring development in many areas related to Nxt.  The committees are NOT – contrary to many views – tasked with doing the work.

The Marketing Committee exists to help YOU create marketing. Here is our voting procedure, and here is where you can submit your proposal for funding.  I wholeheartedly encourage you to apply, since we have a bunch of Nxt to give away and not many people asking for it.

Are there any java developers here that may be interested in joining the team?

Wesleyh, are you going to include a browser-like feature into the official client interface for the alias access feature?? This is extremely important, as I am assuming most businesses ipo'ing would want a web presence that is extremely resistant to censorship. Have thought about it yet? you could use a restricted access browser based on chromium for example? Please consider this thanks..

I am asking hypothetically speaking because I would hate to put a lot of effort and capital behind a web resource only to have it taken down by you know who..

I take the IRS's decision that Bitcoin is a commodity as a really bullish sign for NXT.  NXT's decentralised asset exchange has astronomical potential as a valuable platform for businesses.  If Bitcoin finds difficulty as currency, then investors will be looking for technologies that can offer something more in line with the IRS's decision.  NXT's decentralised asset exchange is very much aligned with the IRS's decision because it allows businesses to perform IPOs, issue stock and automatically pay dividends, all of which are not currency-related tasks.  NXT is the next big thing on the horizon.

Sure Bitcoin makes a great commodity like gold, but NXT also offers 1 minute block times, energy efficiency and decentralised asset exchange.  The NXT developers just need to make it easier to install and setup with a single installer.

How can we present the difference between Nxt asset exchange system and Mastercoin's or Counterpartie's to general audience? How can we present the asset exchange in cool examples?

Well since their tasks are limited to fund management, I think we need another hand or group who will take suggestions or come up with long term targeted strategies for marketing and then execute..I am suggesting this from an experience perspective and what is likely to work, case in point Mastercoin: they barely had a functioning prototype, but they were able to come up with a marketing strategy, hire professional marketing agency to get through to the right channels... I would say their campaigns has been widely successful even though 8 months later they are yet to have complete dec exchange

Like I said we might need another group or committee to actually execute on the right strategies, I for one cannot start this initiative has I am already working on several projects for nxt which consume my time and are due for release. But I can at least point in the right direction and maybe someone with the free time, experience and drive can at least do something.

Ola: I've got it in my OneNote. As I said, I already contacted author of this text 3 weeks ago. Few days ago was published this text - http://www.forexminute.com/bitcoin/nxt-the-next-generation-of-cryptocurrencies-27867 - and it was retweeted to tenths of thousands people. Before we can write cool letters for businessmen, we need to get attention of geeks, cryptoenthusiastics and journalists, then we can show published articles to businessmen. Who wants to help with letters for businessmen, here is the link: https://nxtforum.org/nxt-promotion/letters-for/

ahh ok good, you are at least thinking in this direction, I don't think validation from geeks/influencers is necessary to get the businesses moving, business at least most that I know off are driven purely by profits. If you look at counterparty, there are already businesses lining up to issue shares using the protocol and counterparty is not very popular with crypto enthusiast at the moment due to the data storage issue

short:

you overly paid sob and thief did shit for nxt, all you have done so far is parasited on nxt community and sell your donated nxt on bter.

now you even ask others what to do? i hope you are joking yes?

[mikesbmw]

It is still the early days, price for NXT is very nearly zero, and nothing is preventing you from buying. Your complaint is bogus.

People keep saying it is really early days...
NXT is live since 4,5 months. In the early Bitcoin days, that was like being a baby.

Today is a different world. Currently there are 222 currencies (mostly shit) on Coinmarketcap. A lot of them are dead after 4,5 months...
Yeah, yeah, NXT is a 2.0 crypto. Most people don't know what that means and don't care.

When will the line "NXT is alfa/beta/new/a baby" get old?
Is this after a new easy client? Is it after AE comes to live (which is alfa/beta/new/a baby for the first X months of course   )?

I think that people use the "it's early days" argument as an excuse for whatever and to shut up unwanted criticism.

215/220 of those 222 add nothing new.They copy something and thats that.That is why they have brief life cycles that usually ends with a pump n dump . Nxt is building a whole new ecosystem and that takes time.It can success or it can fail,but its too early to judge yet.

Early days pretty much means before mass adoption or going mainstream like Bitcoin. I think this applies more to NXT than most other alts because it's a completely different beast - the rest of the alts have piggybacked off Bitcoin's source code or are even using Bitcoin's blockchain.

When isn't it "too early to judge" anymore?

Is this based on:

- market cap?
- user base?
- number of projects finished?
- age?

I've speculated with quite a few (shit) coins and when it get's difficult the standard reaction is: "stop complaining it's still early days".

[roslinpl]

I am just wondering about what will be effect on NXT market during this price drops of BTC ...

This year started very badly for cryptocurrency world ... I believe this situation will get better soon!

Criticize all you like, just don't say that initial distribution was somehow unfair when the prices are still so low.
