NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[Come-from-Beyond]

That's funny, NxhChg.com says to users that if they have problem they should ask me. I've been contacted by such a user. I think if users don't know where to deposit the coins to I could give them my own NXT/BTC account number, is it a good idea?

I think you should make a separate account for this and have them all put fees in it and then make the owner of the exachange pay you for the service of supporting his customers and for transferring the NXT to the exchange account.

I would make it painful for this behavior.  I wish I could say I cannot believe this but I can.  Just like how someone reposted Anon136's article but put their donation account on it instead of Anon136's

I'll just match guys with NXT with guys with BTC.

... before quiting the project in April.

What are your plans?

By the way (I am probably not up to date)
-- what happened to the community questions and BCNext's answers? Are they available?

https://forums.nxtcrypto.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=367#p1967

BCNext did not answer Q1 at all.

He did, he is just a pretty bad spokesman

did BCNext already paid out for the websites? fact is we forgot three.

I can not catogorize them as social media and will create another category (web2)

Some thoughts on fees.

I had earlier posted some thoughts on making fees different depending on the size of the amount transferred, but now have different thoughs, since we also have to include aliases and AM and other transaction types.

Im putting some items together, but can someone please break down the blockchain and blocks vs transactions for me?

Is my assumption correct that every block is always the same size?  Or perhaps the size can vary but zeros are prepended to make all blocks the same size?

Im thinking size may vary since you can have losts of transactions per block.  but where can I go to get this info?

Edit:  OK I see that size of a block can vary....

OK what are the max number of transactions per block?  Is this fixed or are there ideas for changing it in the future?  Whats the max size of a transaction?

CfB,

I have a lot of experience with SVM predictors. Basically given training data and answer, it can produce pretty accurate predictions. Overfitting can be controlled by special constant, so the smallest factor that gives acceptable prediction result is usually a good compromise.

Unlike NN that take forever to train when there are a lot of inputs, the SVM can handle almost arbitrarily large feature set. Millions of features can be used. Prediction is a simple dotproduct of feature vector with linear model.

I think here is finally a technical part of NXT I can really contribute to! Just need to develop a set of features and zombie/not-zombie categorization for each set of features.

Someone asked me about Cryptsy. They did contact me a hour ago. I already sent all info they asked for.

Good news is good! 

Oops, sorry. I've just checked. That was Vircurex, not Cryptsy.

I believe 32K, which can hold 255 transactions, much fewer AM. Cost of AM at 1 NXT seems to be a bargain considering the space in the blockchain it uses.

If we say each block is worth 255NXT for 255 transactions or around 30NXT for AM, that makes AM almost 10 times cheaper. I strongly suggest AM cost of 0.01 is a disaster. It is long term storage in blockchain, distrubuted, redundant, etc.

So Pin, will there be a second round just for websites? What is a Blog in your view, social Media or a website?

Project "Kharon".

I get the feeling Project Kharon is a CFB & BCNext collaboration.

bit777 asks about Nxt Daemon https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=183798.new#new

Ah thank you ! I was asking for help from devs but no one is moving.
If bit777 add Nxt this will be the biggest promotion ever.

With what exactly can we help? what do you need?
Pin

Just helping him understand how the client work and how to implement it to his casino (considering the high traffic/transactions).
The Nxt client is very different from BitcoinQt.

This is a main problem we see also appear with exchange, people dont know how to implement it in they environment. Can we have somebody other than core DEVs JL and CfB to help people with this?

who is willing to do this?

Do we have someone other than core devs that could explain how NXT works and help them setup business; this is also in the interest of NXT

going to a size-of-wallet voting scheme is plain MEDIEVAL - sure this has been brought up here before, but how about this:

Thanks everyone for the great ideas and discussion about voting, it's what I was hoping for

I agree with the above statement and that's why I proposed what I did. My concept of voting is only based on the American democratic process. So that's why I proposed how I did.

I am curious that no one commented about the account restrictions based on blockchain height I mentioned: If a vote was proposed and went public on block height of 45,000 an account would have to have existed for 'X' number of blocks before the block containing the vote (i.e, you have to be 18yrs old to vote in the U.S.), we could take it a bit further and say that that account would also have to NXT in it for a certain amount of blocks before the vote as well (like the 1440 blocks before you can forge). This could surely cut down on the amount of gaming no?

This makes a lot of sense on so many levels. Not only would it prevent gaming the system from large holders, but it prevents people from buying large sums of NXT (for a short period) to try to manipulate the vote.  The more I think about this approach, the more it grows on me.
