NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[nnn]

I had some thoughts about Nxt the last few days and what it would need to grow. this is my list:

offer pool mining
> otherwise small holders never gonna see any mining profit for their whole life
> also if some small miner suddenly finds a block and there is no transaction in it...

redesign the interface, clean&professional look (offer bounty)
> the interface looks pretty amateurish(childish) right now

offer an all in one client
> offer the browser part optional

create a documentation with screenshots for new users for the interface
> easier entry for new users

create a detailed documentation on important topics
> mining, transactions, etc.

change the login to ID + password if possible
> more security

create an exchange
> no more forum only trades (risk of scams)

Create a central website&forum, including a blog about latest developments etc.
> all information & news in one place, also better for promotion of the project, transparency

Clearly explain and lay out all the benefits Nxt has, compared to alts/bitcoin
> again should help to promote the project and shows transparency


I mostly tried to offer some ideas, maybe you find it helpful. its obviously only my personal opinion..

btw, im not an early investor, i only got something from giveaways. (just so you know my background in Nxt)

Seeing as we do not have the source (well you could decompile but it seems to be changing twice a day) I think we should consider NXT as undergoing public stress-testing. No need for a proper launch till critical bugs have been found by more tolerant early adopters.

EDIT: I agree with your points though!

An exchange is coming.. I almost expected it to be out already, but I guess the dev ran into some issues/delays?

This requires central authority. If u prefer login+password combo then just use secret phrases that look like "JohnSmith/tHiSiSmYsEcReTpHrAsE".

maybe i get it wrong in my head, but to me it seems if someone wants to run a bruteforce for example, he can run it against the whole system not only on individual accounts, because he doesnt have to check for an account name as well...

Right. But secret phrase already gives 2^256 variants.

I agree that we need pooled mining.

Interface was developed as BCNext wanted it. I agree it's quite childish, but BCNext doesn't seem to be an ordinary person.

I can help with technical details but I don't want to write it by myself.

An exchange is going to be launched very soon.

Yes, we need a site and a forum, anyone can launch them.

anyone a coin for 118475996982
once mining is runnig I'll dive in the protocol to help improve.

you might want to consider a .conf file where one can put SSL certs to have a native SSL app.

What does this mean? I'm guessing the blocks.nxt file can't be modified or something to that effect, but rather have a dev's opinion as I am sure I won't be the only one experiencing this.

java.io.FileNotFoundException: blocks.nxt The requested operation cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open

Sure, no problem, can't just copy and paste some I am typing out. There are 2 instances of this so far:
