NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

minusbalancer client simple and easy

Did anybody tested this?

With all respect to the other clients which are much more advanced and also great, this is for Joe average and mass adoption.

It is genius in its simplicity; I just tested it and made a video about it.  this is directly usable as it is (some minor tweaks)

Nice preview. I see this is a very easy client for users.

Some work ive been doing with an nxt client installation script, https://github.com/jobbet/nxt/. This includes a init script. Supports install and update (including version selection). This is a v0.1 so dynamic paths for binarys and such will be fixed. As well as code clean up. Feel free to comment and make up better solutions. Just PM me.

Edit: This script assumes a installation of java, unzip and such. I will make a .deb -file out of this later where dependencies will be sorted out. I am also having plans of a GTK-client for GNU/Linux.

Also, i am on IRC, #nxtalk @ irc.freenode.net

We would take the first to commit an independent review. We could even have more than 1 review though if funding is sufficiently raised.

I hope funding is sufficiently. I really like the idea of having more than 1 independent review!

Let's wait for the 1st review results. If a flaw is found we won't need another review, right?

There is something I noticed, but didn´t cared about till now, but it is very interesting ... although it is not true (most probably).

1, There was that issue when someone created billions of Nxt out of nowhere using a bug. It was overnight. I noticed, that at that night, you wrote here that you are now going to have some sleep, but if something happens, we shouldn´t panic, you will be online the next morning and will solve the issue. You never did this before, and never did this since that night. Only when that serous bug was found.

2, You told weeks before the 3rd of January that the price will drop hard after the code is released, although everyone expectd the price to go up, as the sourcecode will be open for everyone to examine, which usually drags in more investors. What happened? The price went down from 0.0001 to 0.000035.

3, And now you mentioned several times, that if a flaw is found, it can lead to the destruction of Nxt. You mentioned i at least 4 times in the last 2 days.

Do we have to worry... ?

relax,CFB is just kidding

[kunibopl]

what is it exactly the cryptographic experts should review? I lost the thread..
can you point me to the files/algos.
I might have some valuable contacts.

CFB, can you please point me to the specific crypto algorithm code so that I can forward to Steve Weiss, rather than the entire source?  Thanks.

Why is not PR category in reward programm?

It's split among such categories as Video, Articles, Giveaway.

People who promote Nxt on Facebook, Twitter and other social networks (Smm) will remain without reward.

Seems u r right. Could u compile a list of such people?

i will try to find more info about them

Most of it is in the Marketing and PR Subforum: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=412243.msg4465984#msg4465984 (first post + links)

Did you know....

That the guy that has made that awesome logo for NXT received 1000 NXT for it?

Although he is very happy that he could contribute to the community and don’t ask for more,

I think this is not much as all sociale media use his logo

Shouldn’t we give him 4000 NXT also?

Why not?

[NxtChoice]

On the independent reviewer of Nxt's crypto algorithm, I have two candidates for your consideration, but they may be not the right person because of conflict of interest.

The first one is David Schwartz, who is the Chief Cryptographer at Ripple Labs and one of the architects of the Ripple payment system. I learned a lot from his posts on bitcoin stackexchange. He is very active on crypto algorithm and I think he is very open. I don't know what's his opinion on Nxt. His profile is here: http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/users/85/david-schwartz

The second one is Charles Hoskinson, who is the former CEO of Invictus, and now one of the founders of the project Ethereum. He mentioned Nxt as "interesting innovations":

There are been some interesting innovations in the proof of stake space with the introduction of Nxt and also BitShares adopting PoS.

I think he should be very busy on the new project.

Ideally we would like to see someone with a strong computer science/ cryptography background, an interest in the working of a distributed network and no special interest in any cryptocurrency.

Well, it's confirmed. Andreas thinks NXT is a bitcoin protocol layer. I heard him say it before, and he now says it again..

Avatar Creator and Signature Creator

Hey guys,

we from NXTarea.com created an avatar & signature creator. We currently have 5 designs for both. You can enter nicknames or text up to 16 symbols. The avatar size is 100x100, the signature size is 300x80.

This is to promote NXT further though the world wide web. We have to bring the NXT logo to everyone.

Currently avatars are deactivated on Bitcointalk.org because of the recent hack. I'm sure this will change in the future!

The avatar size on nextcoin.org is 65x65, not very nice. If someone want to contact the admin please do it, to change it to 100x100.

On forums.nxtcrypto.org it isn't allowed to use a .png avatar. I created a thread to let it changed. So please contribute to the thread!

Thank you very much.
To the Image Creator!

Okay guys!

I changed a few lines and now the avatar and signature are being saved as .gif! The quality isn't that good anymore, but forums.nxtcrypto.org couldn't allow the standard format .png on their forums. So I have to adapt.

If you want to see other options just say it.

HAVE FUN.

Here are all possible variations:

Signature:






I hope you like them.

Great ,I will have a try on my sitewww.nxts.org
