NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[MrMochi]

sent, enjoy

Received, wonderful.
Once my coins arrive I shall send you back double.
Have at you!

In the meanwhile I'll look for that raspberry pi laying around.
And put up an extra node.

Idea: a mechanism that pays nodes automatically just for being up. Like an automatic, rearming faucet. People would be paid just for running devices, regardsless of type.

With some cross checking, denying cheaters should be doable, e.g. only considering unique IPs and nodes that are uploading at least now and then.

Called forging (forging pools in future may be)  Equlibrium under construction.

Wanna repeat: don't invest more than u can afford to lose. And if u, %username%, just starting an investor career, divide your expectations of acceptable lost part of capital by 10!

Manage risks, use diversification. Live long and prosper  

buy high, sell low, yeeha!

Raspberry Pis are a cheap way to stand up lots of new nodes fast to stabilize the network from DDoS attack more so than using them for forging new NXT coins.

I guessed as much - I'm running 3 nodes to do my small part to help... I just wonder if some people will mistakenly buy PIs thinking they are mining machines for NXT - which it is clear they are not and they would have been better increasing their stake... Of course if they want to buy 5 or 10 PIs to help the network that is fine but are they clear it won't help them get more NXT unless someone is paying them to do it of course.

They are cheap way to always keep 1 node unlocked without messing with your primary computer. They would also be a cool way to have secure remote access to NXT.

Start using "my 2 nxts" (instead of btc, cents)...evangelize, advertise

[Damelon]

Edit: the "mining" mentality is a weird mindset.

No, it's not. People love fast profits and such thing easily clouds mind far away from seeing long-term scenarios. Absolutely normal.

I'm not saying it isn't understandable. I've been known to go for "$$$$ by sitting on your butt!!!" schemes  

"Weird" includes me, too. That doesn't mean it shouldn't be pointed out, once in a while

The reason why many of the NXT blocks are empty is because NXT needs more trading to occur for more blocks with values to occur

Don't turn Nxt into something personalized-thing, reason: low tx-activity and that's all  

[ferment]

Even more nodes deployed!

Just deployed 10 nodes to London! That's node61-node70.

That's 71 nodes in 7 different geographic locations!

Up nxt: TOKYO! Ii desu yo!

Status

Nodes deployed: 71
Nodes queued: 22

Data centers: Atlanta, Dallas, Chicago, Northern VA, Hong Kong, Sydney, London

Sponsorship

Since the last update I have received 31500 NXT for 10.3 more nodes until the end of March! Thank you!

To reach the goal of 100 public nodes by Jan 3, we need only 19500 nxt! So close! To support increased network robustness, please send 3000 nxt to 11243542237777034551 to sponsor a node until the end of March. Vanity nodes are available for 4500 nxt with your own hallmark and name.

Thank you to everyone working so hard to help NXT be a success.

Wasn't really sure what you said...

Yay! Thanks! Keep up the good work!

Someone should do 3D-chart of spinning planet Earth with contacting nodes for sure

so sad people get scammed at nextcoin.org...

someone selling 500,000 NXT for 1.53 btc

he has 19 lots

so sad

You must send BTC first. No escrow.

No, I mean a more radical system. ^^ It would be funded by donations from large accounts and paid regardless of stakes.

Even more radical would be a tax on large stakes which would then be distributed. Think: Unconditional Basic Income

I was running the software just fine, but today after rebooting I am getting the error
"java.lang.NullPointerException"
on the localhost page. What happened ?

And say that no need in NXT in exchange whatsoever right after sending. Just be like Santa, Santa don't speculate or use escrow, right?

That´s why I also ordered PIs to support he network, as it is also in my interest to help nxt succeed.

Cool, I'm going to try the virtual machine route as I have a intel server sat here doing nothing..

Can anyone tell me what roughly network bandwidth a single NXT client uses up?

Then I can multiply it by how many copies I can finally get running and set up the allocation on my firewall properly, will save me time figuring it out

Wont be able to hallmark as I can't get a static IP but hopefully they will help.

We can hope for some activity like this and some NXT was spent that way. No protocol, free will.

I guess we could have a motion to put a proposal for a vote when the voting system being implemented.

Did you reload blockchain?
