Seriously, how do you think the one party who is allowed to be the BTC/NXT gateway will price his/her services? With no competition the NXT exchange, as a whole, could very likely suffer from monopolies on assets like BTC, USD and gold.
One party will pay 1000 NXT to issue an Asset within the NXT Asset Exchange, which will be a BTC/NXT gateway. Another party can also pay 1000 NXT to issue a DIFFERENT Asset within the NXT Asset Exchange, which can also be a BTC/NXT gateway. Either you and the others raising these concerns have a misconception of what an Asset is OR I need to do a lot of homework! Fair enough. Thanks. smaragda is correct. Anyone can be BTC/NXT gateway if he wants. Actually I would rather have mBTC/NXT gateway. Just one more thing, it would be extremely difficult to get a market going. Ripple has been here for years with huge backing and it is going no where. Regardless how many BTC/NXT gateways are there in NXT asset, I for one would be extremely difficult to be persuaded to buy one BTC from you. If want BTC I would rather go for the real thing at coinbase or BTC-China or bitstamp. I would definitely buy virtual high performance CDs though .

It does get checked in the verifyGenerationSignature method.
pushBlock() checks that forger doesn't cheat. verifyGenerationSignature() called by pushBlock().
Thanks! Makes sense.

Well I think we need to move faster. yes! and we will do. i am just adding the last components for the explorer (alias search), cleaning the codebase and finalize the explorer. it was planned to add some more features (filters/pagination/charts/mining calculator) but i think these are not so important, as long the main funktion is working properly. this can be done later and is on my todo list. i see the explorer more than a community asset than a personal project. tomorrow i am starting the client/asset-exchange fulltime, which means much more output from my side. the asset exchange is the most difficult part (async api/data storage/charts/order matching/different instruments like shared revenue, options, bonds etc.) but once fully functional all other services can be plugged in very fast. i guess much faster than other competitioners. the first beta should be ready in ~3 weeks (which is very sporty), ready to check heavily via testnet. if no major bugs are found the final is planned 1-2 weeks later and yes, competition is good, have no problems with that. btw, happy new year!

well, no respond from experienced nxters, yet...
so blocks.nxt was about 5 mb, but blocks.nxt.bak is about 11.3 mb so I did copy bak file and replace blocks.nxt. Now I get, "Loading blocks ..." ...Done and client started to work again. But no idea what caused the crash, maybe there is small bug
You had fallen off the main chain and generated an incorrect block. It seems you have caught up again! Just make sure you are using the latest client and have performed all the appropriate security checks. Thanks for comment! Is it normal, though? I am on NRS 0.4.8, and wonder if it happens with everyone?! I don't think it is, because people suppose to forge days without crash, right security checks... security as far as i can tell good enough. but I think it was something to do with client or maybe memory run out... (nothing to do with account itself, i think )

People ask why Nxt is not inflationary. Could anyone tell me why it's not inflationary if it's possible to issue other currencies using Asset Exchange? This increases number of "coins" owned by users, right?
interesting question! at least, inflation is increase of the price. if we substitute 1nxt by 3btc we have increased the price for one nxt by factor 3:0.0001 ... hm ? ? It's not inflation, no new NXT'll be created. It's devaluation of against's active. Such as $. Gold haven't inflation too despite it's being mined. Just non-mined gold has no comfort form and some part has no owner (such as deep gold, lost gold, out-Earth gold). Actually we can create new gold (nuclear things), but whil it's more expensive than gold costs itself, it's not a stable source. Market estimates all amount of gold, all amount of easy-to-get-gold and generates currrent price. I think. It's nature of commodity money.

I guess this is the sort of thing voting to freeze accts would be used for? If the dgex accts can be frozen until this is all resolved, at least we know where the NXT is.
Maybe dgex owner will voluntarily freeze these accts for now?

We still need to trust in individuals, otherwise nothing get done.
No, we don't. After some reading everyone can slowly of faster analyse opensourced code. After some reading everyone can check checksums and understands what cryptography brings to the table. Transparency, honesty inside big community of learning people annihilate need of personal trust with time. Everyone'll know how everything works around him, what to expect including all kinds of risks (like bogus downloads) and how to deal with it. And with centralization of any kind, Oruell's "1984" slowly comes into our lives. U'll be told with authority what to think pertty soon if nothing changes.
