NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[landomata]

I have been thinking really deeply over the pass week about how to drive adoption for NXT and this is my conclusion:


CONCLUSION:

1) Push Anonymous Messaging ONLY on WORLD CLASS DESIGNED ANDROID/IPHONE APPS (OUR FLAGSHIP APPS).

2) Make these APPS available on Google Play/App Store.


3) USE the current market situation to our advantage AS NO ONE IS NOW SURE ABOUT USING THERE MOBILE FOR SECURE COMMUNICATION....The NSA sent us a blessing in disguise....AN UNTAPPED MARKET WHICH THEY THEMSELVES CREATED.

4) Once Nxt Messaging has gained a strong following 100,000 - 500,000 downloads we start to Unlock/roll out other features of NXT ....ie. auction/storage/payment/Asset exchange/marketplace etc....thru regular updates once users start using the messaging app they become lock into the larger NXT ecosystem.


5) My real world examples are LINE & WECHAT....both started as msg apps but NOW OFFER IN APP PAYMENTS.


Chinese smartphone manufacturer Xioami sold 100,000 smartphones inside the WECHAT messaging app last month.


EDIT: The above is a Strategy for gaining MAINSTREAM ADOPTION which will give us payment possibilities without the need to push payment as our main selling point....this would be a unique approach for a crypto currency.

Yeah there is a limit of transaction/block, it's weird.
Because C-f-B talked about 1000+ transaction per second potential but right now there is only lile 256 transaction per minute max

[NxtChg]

Block size is 32K max, 1440 blocks per day average. You can't put a lot of payload to block anyway.

That will most definitely change as transaction amount increases.

So concerns about blockchain explosion are absolutely valid, this was my major problem with bitcoin either.

But it seems like cryptocurrencies will replace one another faster than they run out of space for blockchain

When will next go to the big markets??

I consulted a developer of one of the popular exchanges regarding accepting and sending NXTs. They didn't ask me to keep this in secret but I won't tell its name in case if it was supposed to be a secret.

And what did they say?

They asked for coins to test their system.

And did you give them the coins (why do we have to DRAG it out of CfB )

Has the bug been fixed yet where coins indadvertedly get sent to a wrong number? Appears that is the issue dgex had? Has dgex contacted you with details of their bug?

IIRC CfB said it's a client-side issue. I've had no issues with your Mac client, btw. It's a beast... the only addition I'd like to see is alias registration (not sure if that's beyond your original scope/intent, tho)

Interesting ideas. We should definitely put a footstep into high quality (secure messaging) apps. But i heard there are some secure messaging apps already?

We have ~13M coins left and they'll be spent for rewards, bounties and development. Now we are running a reward program. I ask the community to post here links (with short description and link to BTT profile) to projects/persons that helped to promote Nxt. Only projects launched before the 3rd of Jan can apply. There will be several categories, BCNext will choose 3 best participants from each category. I'll contact project owners via BTT personal message to get Nxt account ids for reward payments. The 1st place will receive 50'000, 2nd - 30'000 and 3rd - 20'000 NXT.

Thanks, it's something I thought about too :-) Multiple alias registration in 1 go.

Project: Implementation of a decentralized stock exchange, decentralized asset exchange within NXT asset exchange  --- UtopianFuture

Categories: articles, exchanges.

I have started this project one week ago via a mailing list. First draft

https://www.dropbox.com/s/xlzequz7qrggq80/First%20document%20of%20Nxt%20asset%20exchange.pdf


Objective: Dealing with actual issues of building a decentralized stock exchange based on the foundation of NXT asset exchange such as how to trust the stock issuers, how to deal with post- issuing conflicts, legal aspects of NXT network's social contract and the public inquiry process.

Expected Output:

1 peer review paper about potential real world problems with an implementation of a decentralized stock exchange; proposed solutions
1 plan for the actual implementation of the peer review paper concepts
These are expected to be completed before the official launch of the NXT asset market by the end of January.
