NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[bitcoinpaul]

Just a quick suggestion / reminder (https://nextcoin.org/index.php/topic,840.msg6875.html#msg6875) for marketing purposes:

Wouldn't it be useful and naturally understandable, if we would use the following wording pattern for Nxt:

- Nxt
- Nxt coins
- Nxt messaging
- Nxt ...

So many people understand ***coins today, and it would work with our Nxt system, wouldn't it? To enforce people to not use "coin" is kinda weird... The whole system is called NXT, and it has many features like nxt coins and so on.

I think QBTC made similar suggestions with the logo: https://nextcoin.org/index.php/topic,1487.msg13228.html#msg13228


Please comment.

We want to avoid using coin as much as possible....we want to differentiate Nxt from the all other cryptocoins.....as it is much much more.

I think for the whole system to work, there has to be a tax against money not put into circulation. Cfb , is it possible to design such a scheme?

Not after Mixing is implemented.

Don't tell people what to do and you won't hear where should you go.

R u Russian by any chance?

Isn't it kinda weird that you can own some Nxts and the whole ecosystem is called Nxt, which includes more then just Nxts?

It is just like adding a feature to nxt network to counterreact hoarding. If you want all kind of cool stufs for nxt why don't you want a feature that will make nxt a sustainable system? I am big stake definitely in top100. I am also economist. I am taking a position for the best of nxt network and the idea of decentralization.

U should pay attention to difficulty adjusting algo and ask urself why BCNext coded it such the way. Just a hint

I think that would make sense.
If you just bring NXT up people are confused

Nxt features will have their brand names....ie Alias System.

Edit: Nxt messaging, Nxt Asset Exchange etc...It;s seems quite normal.

Not weird and difficult to understand? Don't let this system don't work with full potential because of difficult 'nerd terms'.

@cfb: What is the field "referencedTransaction" in the transaction class for? Could you explain a bit?

It allows to create "chained" transactions. For example, my Slot Machine for Nxt used this to pay winnings without fear that blockchain reorg will cancel a betting transaction. I referenced betting transactions. This means that my transaction can't be confirmed if a referenced transaction is not confirmed as well.

I agree discussion about where funding should go is good, but we should not demand anyone to spend their funding, no matter their stake. Demanding others to spend their money in your own vision is wrong, kind of like how banks sometimes block their clients from buying bitcoins. Wrong.

I also agree the NXT market is doing rather well, for a new coin. It has one of the highest volumes on an single exchange many people complain about, even though I've never had any trouble with it. And distribution can really only happen as fast as new people coming into the system are creating accounts, so giving away larger amounts of "free money" will not help. Advertising, promotion and marketing will help in this category.

It is unfortunate with the explosion of altcoin-mania that most people expect free profits (by redirecting their mining rigs to a new shitcoin early on to sell to later buyers) and are so blinded that when they see they are not forging hundreds of dollars an hour, they immediately complain about "inequality" or "unfair distribution", despite never contributing a thing to the NXT project. The thing I like about the NXT project is that the people who truly care about NXT donate their time, skills and money to support the network. It's more of a team effort rather than every man for himself you see in typical PoW coins. I can see NXT has so much potential, so it completely blows my mind when people ignore NXT's strengths and just focus on the forging part.

Nxt began as the "NXT PROJECT" and I think its past the point where the name can be changed.

so lets focus our intelligence and energy to other things.

 

[bitcoinpaul]

Ok, so your opinion is that we should have the terms NXT and NXT, which are two different things, or is it NXT Project and NXT?

"nah, lets work on the code. fuck essential marketing stuff"
thats bs.

I also agree the NXT market is doing rather well, for a new coin.

I agree Nxt is staying consistently above USD 500,000 trade volume and being only a month old.

Only 4 other coins are higher....and they have been at it for a much longer time.

Hey CfB, no new year presents?

Now i want to buy "i". Wait, Apple don't sell "i"s. Get it?

We should clarify the wording. If it is "Nxt Project" and "Nxt" and I'm the only one who finds this not the best, ok. But calling the system "Nxt" and this little tiny coins (ups, i said it) "Nxt" is counterproductive, isn't it?

The Nxt Ecosystem.....includes Nxt the currency unit....Nxt Asset Exchange, Nxt Messaging, Nxt Alias System, Nxt Decentralized Voting....etc.

For those that use Firefox, please install this extension and test it out:

http://nxtra.org/alias/NxtAliasSystem.xpi (don't bother downloading if you are not using firefox).

This extension enables nxt aliases in the firefox browser.

You will be able to type nxt:google and be redirected to google.

This is the real-world application of the Nxt alias sytem.

I'm trying to do something similar for Chrome too.

Please let me know if this is working for you.
