NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[omo]

20 minutes passed, my client still at block 22537

Delete block chain and rejoin.  Version 0.4.0 is working for me.

Current block 22542

I am runing 0.4.0, I cleaned the directory and restarted,
now it stoped at 22509

[brooklynbtc]

Yeah I went back to my old .4.0 folder, works a charm.

Getting LOADS of chances to forge a block too, Only made it once, with 0 payload.

Coin based on Java... I can't believe my eyes, coin developed with most insecure and inefficient bloated language full with frameworks for lazy/incapable devs. This thing does not sound right and will have serious problems.

I used an online bank client which was based on Java. Maybe it's ok if you know how to deal with it?

No, it's not.
Also, in order to participate in this super secure NXT system, I had to used that some archaic looking website dgex.com,
which is about as secure as java, then pray for my NXT to be delivered, and now I'm stuck at block

without knowing what to do, which gods to pray to now, or whether my coins will arrive at all.

Also with all the ddosing and forking mentioned in this thread, WTH is so secure about it?
I'm pretty sure I lost my BTC to this ultra-secure system. Good riddance!

Awesome job, Nexern

It's not really an issue, as there's a native client being written.

I guess the authors chose Java for the NRS (Next Reference Source) because they wanted portability, to reach as many users a possible.

Will this native client be part of the January release?

Thanks salsacz. Is that 0.4.0? Looks like that did it.

I'm now at

And I'm sorry, but all this looks barely usable at regular user level, let alone Fort Knox secure.

[salsacz]

ofcourse, full release will be in April..

source? Not that I don't believe, just haven't read it.

I have started the Dutch wiki. Translated two pages so far, but it's getting fairly late here so I will probably be doing more tomorrow. In any case, you can check it out here:

http://nxt-nl.wikia.com/wiki/Nxt_NL_Wiki

If any of the other Dutch translators want admin access in order to help get the Wiki up to speed faster, shoot me a PM here or on Nextcoin.org forum.

it seems there're too many branches

i was having all kinds of issues till i hallmarked my node, and just picked a node with a dns name as a single wellknown host.  then used a nearly 24hr old blockchainfiles backup, my client then caught up all recent blocks and am on 22588 now.  maybe a coincidence though

How to "just picked a node with a dns name as a single wellknown host"?

Finally, I got the longest chain!

Method:

1) Download the nxtfile https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/67242472/nxtfiles.zip
2) unzip nxt.zip to a new directory
3) unzip nxtfiles to the new nxt directory
4) java -jar start.jar

What's your block now?

I did this, but the block stopped at 22524

The problem that I have is that whenever I catch up with the longest chain because it's stuck, by reverting to a previous state and re-downloading the chain), it works only until some next form and I can wash rinse and repeat time and again.

It works, but not for long and must be done way too often. Hope the fix will come soon
