NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[opticalcarrier]

Regarding TESTNET:

Please anyone interested start to co-ordinate! I don't have time to manage this at all, I want a united team to fund only.

Would be 100K be sufficient? Too low? Too high?

Decide how you will co-operate and who is gonna receive the money...

The good news is that for a test net, we can prob get by with min spec VPS.

def should keep the group small and very private to keep DDOS out.

Im in for a few VPSs

What is the testnet for this time?

General testing of features as they come out. Testing anything really.

Why don't we use the testnet we used lastime for testing alias system? There are testcoins which can be issued. Cfb was responsible for the last testnet.

Sure we can! I don't know if it needs more nodes etc.
Does it need administration? By whom?
We need a team dedicated I think..
(CfB has more important tasks atm)

Ok, I have one testnet server setup at : https://162.243.81.243:6875/

can CfB generate us a test blockchain with some accounts with funds

Can you be the proxy in this effort?

Certainly! I may be more useful in this as NXT grows since I still have a full time job.....hopefully not for long

Ok you two maybe need to start a new thread (post link here) and tell me what expenses will be needed for the infrastructures, how many people will be involved etc so I can make decisions on the rewards.

Also we will post this in the BOUNTYS thread too in case we can gather more funds from other stakeholders..

[laowai80]

anyone can make a guide on HOW rent and set up a VPS for newbies?

Step 1) Sign up for digitalocean.com (skip to Step 4 if you already have a VPS hosting account from any other provider running Debian 7, 64-bit).
Short guide on how to choose a VPS host.

You need to update the dropbox link in your guide. It points to 0.4.5 still

what's the latest official link?

I had no idea Nipple was worth that much in market cap

Intel, I could not find the post to which you were referring.  Is there something I need to do to fix my client?  Sorry, I am not the most proficient at this technical stuff.

Can we put test funds there??

Btw, ppl should stop using word "official", Nxt is a decentralized system.

Are you collecting genesis block stakeholders passphrases?

ok it's so hard to get used to, but we have to try I guess

[Kodoka]

Does anyone know what 5874614062205245396 is doing? They're sending 500 Nxt to everyone. Is there some giveaway that I'm missing out on?

[Come-from-Beyond]

That's hard, there is no code to generate a new genesis block. One of the founders should use his account (if it's empty in the real blockchain) and send coins to ppl. NEVER USE UR REAL ACCOUNTS, test transactions can be broadcasted to the real blockchain.

Node, Desktop, RaspPi, all up to date

Whoever has problems keeping their RPis up to date, you might want to consider using my automatic public node update script. Also, maybe somewhat increase the pullThreshold in the config, so that you're less likely still to end up on a wrong chain.

Add: If you start building a testnet, post here or PM me on how to get involved.

I would slso like to get involved in testing!

Yes, you can fix it (most likely) by

- stopping the server,
- then deleting (make a backup?) blocks and transactions txt files in the root of NXT server
- and then starting it again.
