Hi, can somebody please point me to the right direction?
I can see a lot of features but I can't find any paper explaining how and when these will be implemented.
In particular:

- Decentralized Marketplace / Auction
- Decentralized Mixing Service
- Decentralized DNS / Alias System (Starting at block 22000)
- Voting

Thanks

The client seems to eat more and more memory over time. Anyone else noticed that?

Haha this is great !

[sparta_cuss]

You have all been extremely patient and generous with those of us (newbies) trying to learn about Nxt and cryptos in general, so please be patient with another newbie question below.
And I will add that the quality and volume of communication on this site is extraordinarily good. Doing development in the open like this is like inviting people into the kitchen of your restaurant. Average customers may not want to see that kitchen, but legitimate investors absolutely must see the good, the bad, and the ugly of the whole operation. This forum captures the historical development of problems encountered and solved, and will be strong testament to the resilience of this project and the people involved.

Here's the question:
What is your best guess about the specific sources of the DDOS attacks? Organizing them takes time, resources, and cooperation, so how is such an attack justified by those making the effort? What is the ultimate gain for them? (Sorry if this question has already been answered. I read the posts here as much as I can, but haven't hit all 480+ pages.)

Very nice interface. Good work, wesley.

yeah, something's got to be done about this.
Although RAM is cheap and getting cheaper, some leaking is going on for sure 
it's not a problem for home users who just launch, make some payments and close, but for public nodes it is an issue.

That would be no solution. It needs to be smooth as butter and light as i-cant-believe-its-not-butter!

Yeah I don't know if anyone knows exactly where it's coming from but the concept of nxt and all the features certainly threaten the status quo (BTC/LTC) etc. I wouldn't be surprised at all if its coming from elsewhere in the crypto community.

Would NXT's built-in marketplace make Tor-markets obsolete? If that's the case, obviously the attackers want to kill NXT, because it competes with the Tor markets.

[BloodyRookie]

Has anyone taken a look at the ip addresses of the attackers? Are they hiding behind TOR?

someone said it is probably botnets, so IP addresses wouldnt help much.

Adding well know peers in your web.xml increase your chances to be on real main blockchain at any moment

Instructions:
1- Close your java process (if it's running)
2- Go to the following directory nxt/webapps/root/WEB-INF/
3- Open web.xml with a text editor
4- find this line:

Code:

<param-name>wellKnownPeers</param-name>

5- into the following lane copy/paste the easyCopyString between <param-name>HERE</param-name>
6- it will looks like:

Code:

<param-name>wellKnownPeers</param-name>
<param-value>87.230.14.1; 46.19.137.116; 95.85.22.142; 162.243.214.183; scum2.bounceme.net; 162.243.213.115; node11.nxtbase.com; 78.46.63.221; scum5.bounceme.net; scum4.bounceme.net; vps5.nxtcrypto.org; node16.nxtbase.com; scum.bounceme.net; scum2.bounceme.net; scum5.bounceme.net; scum6.bounceme.net</param-value>

7- save
8- restart next java process

easyCopyString:
162.243.214.68; 95.85.46.164; 162.243.216.55; 162.243.143.15; 95.85.46.249; 93.190.92.74; 37.209.120.192; 93.190.92.75; 85.25.134.59; 93.190.92.76; vps1.nxtcrypto.org;  vps2.nxtcrypto.org;  vps3.nxtcrypto.org;  vps4.nxtcrypto.org;  vps5.nxtcrypto.org; nxtwallet.com; 31.220.50.208; nxt.ddos.me; 203.174.12.25; 88.198.142.92; 66.197.138.90; 64.120.180.106; 109.230.224.65; 80.86.92.50; node1.nextcoin.it; node2.nextcoin.it; node3.nextcoin.it; node4.nextcoin.it; node5.nextcoin.it; nxt.homer.ru; 31.204.130.123; 209.222.0.194; 209.222.16.10;

Vps Owners: keep updated the easycopystring adding your nodes!!!!

Add a node from every nxtbase region?

node1.nxtbase.com; node11.nxtbase.com; node21.nxtbase.com; node31.nxtbase.com; node41.nxtbase.com; node51.nxtbase.com; node61.nxtbase.com; node71.nxtbase.com; node81.nxtbase.com; node91.nxtbase.com;

Excellent Idea!

@cfb, any new schedule to transparent mining?

Maybe on 3rd of January. We don't have to update NRS too often in this case.
Anyway, users see no difference, Transparent Mining will be deployed partially to avoid blockchain fork.

it's interesting since some of my Nxt videos are connected with my Facebook, I am getting many "you asked for a new password for Facebook" emails these days.

When i ping dgex.com i get IP address 200.35.149.26

When i enter that IP address as URL in my browser i get the homepage of http://dunecom.com/
Is this an indication dgex is hacked  

Could someone try the same and confirm?

EDIT: Whith the URL dgex.com I'm still getting the regular dgex login screen, but after pressing the login button:
I get the 404 error Not Found

The requested URL /login.cgi was not found on this server.
