no reply, total packet loss.

The host drops all ping requests. Tried it from two different IPs.

So that's not necessarily a hint to your problem.

BCNext offers a fun game to the community.

Rules:

1. Community decides what 3 questions they want to ask
2. Community posts these questions in this thread (in ~24 hours starting from now)
3. BCNext answers this questions (will be signed by the genesis account)
4. BCNext has the right to refuse to answer any (or all) of the questions (so don't ask his real name)

This is a win-win game. Community will get answers to some questions (like why the fund raising was cancelled so suddenly). BCNext will see how the community comes to a consensus without strict rules (like "the longest chain wins").

If u accept this offer u could start choosing the most important questions...

Whoa, that was fast, Pin! Didn't we get 24 hours for having fun?

May I propose to not use the word darkNXT? It's not a good term in terms of PR and marketing.

This is why I suggested to freeze these accts for a while until we get to the bottom of the true mystery. However, from what I have seen, there is reluctance to set a precedent of freezing an acct for whatever reasons, even this.

It's impossible in decentralized system. Let me describe it:
- to freeze account we need to create code, that reject transactions from particular account ids;
- this code and list of acct ids must be included in all nodes of network;
- those nodes who doesn't contain rejecting code will fork when transactions from "frozen" accounts appear in blockchain;
- so, one more time: all nodes of network must contain rejecting code;
- so devs can't release software which start to reject frozen accouts right now; every changes of that type are always applied starting from some block in future, at least 3-4-5 days needed;
- in that time thief just move stolen coins to some other non-blocked account;
- so rejecting code will have no meaning.

Also, devs can't distribute online list of frozen accounts, because it leads to centralization.

That's all.

Who to target

I've got most followers outside the US and EU by running FB adds on my page, facebook.com/nxtmag, intentionally targeting them, as I believe the need for NXT is massive here.

There is no Winklevoss-like story in this, but perhaps something that imo suits NXT better. I remember before btc got all invaded by speculators, a specific article on what might drive btc's price up. It made sense to me, but NXT could make a much greater impact in these matters + lots of others if getting adopted worldwide. (just an example: http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2013-10-08/will-migrant-workers-drive-bitcoins-mundane-future)

Tons of micro investments in NXT is imo a far better way to go than spiking because of some overnight media hype. It could build a legend of NXT that stands out from the coins. A massive userbase spread all over the world, users who actually need the features, got them at an affordable price - running clients, adding to the network not to get rich quick, but because they use the network and get the importance of the features.

In my book, this is a way to go. Well, I am going for it right now, so wtf

When development is further, marketing should kick in. All positive interest we can get from the pre-buzz being made right now is good, because it all adds to the story, that will become the nxt legacy.  We can change the world with NXT. All this comparing nxt to btc and bashing other altcoins is irrelevant bs imo. The important part is, that the monetary system works, as it does on the bitcoin fork. So let's get on to the 2. gen. part, why NXT is important, what NXT should be used for, by whom, to reach what goal.

QUESTION TO BCNXT:

What is your personal goal of creating NXT?

Same question kinda goes for all of ya'll. Why are you here? What are you hoping for?
A vote about that would be interesting too.
