NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[pinarello]

A marketing Committee


1) I propose Salsacz, Pin, Utopianfuture, Opticarrier & Klee form the marketing committee

Consider uniqueorn for this list. He isn't here a lot but is at the other forum and has put in a lot of time.

Salsacz (campaigns, viral marketing, media, people, universities... "organizing" all what is in Media topic) - Bitcointalk, all other forums
NiftyNikel (people) - nextcoin
Uniqueorn (people) - nextcoin
Utopianfuture (articles, people, science world) - Bitcointalk
opticalcarrier (scienceworld?)

? Joefox (texts) - wiki, Bitcointalk
? Anon136 (science world)
? Klee (belongs to the dev commitee)

Pinarello (communication with Nxt users) - forums.nxtcrypto, Bitcointalk (declined, but still has "communication with Nxt users" topic)

yes...these additional three would be good.....Klee & Anon136 have solid reputations built on responsibly handling large amounts of funds.

Edit: Joefox...is also a smart marketer.

As of now I do not have a "function" so please remove bold.

thank you
Pin

what was the total messaging fee ....1 nxt per msg sent? or did you send in bulk?....just curious

1 nxt per msg, yes. No discounts for developers... ;-)

I am investing some of the donations I got for bug elimination actually.

Why vote makes no unfair social media.
You call a couple of people that the community is all about?

That decide for everyone

Why not conduct a fair vote social media?

[Come-from-Beyond]

The main goal of this little project was to find bugs in my clients (I think the only way I can win a prize in the AM contest with this is, if only two other people take part... ;-) )

I found three bugs with this project in my client and one of them was that I didn't correctly add public keys created through forging in my account list.

So, 60 of the 204 account I sent a message to, actually have a public key in the blockchain and got a false warning message.

I'll send out a second "go-to-sleep-again" message to these 60 later today.

Was the account '2449360251152267661' one of those?

As:
 - 'requestType=getAccountBlockIds&account=2449360251152267661&timestamp=0' returns zero forged blocks
 - 'requestType=getAccountPublicKey&account=2449360251152267661' returns an empty hash

But:
 - 'requestType=getBlock&block=15154802272108425772' returns a block with 2449360251152267661 as generator
 - 'requestType=getBlock&block=2526093825202073401' returns a block with 2449360251152267661 as generator

Is that a bug in NRS?

requestType=getAccountBlockIds&account=2449360251152267661&timestamp=0 returns non-empty list of forged blocks.

a fair vote social media?

That's on oxymoron.  On more than one level.

Unfortunately creating a Facebook page and paying for fake 'Likes' doesn't really help the community at all.

I forgot if it was ferment or nexern but one of them had a partial API in CLI form.  I did one that has every API so far except asset issue ones.

Warning, it uses insecure http since curl has issues with self-signed certs.  So be careful when using on anything other than l for localhost
Requires python and it's json.tool
Usage:  ncli APIcmd server option1 option2...

where server is IP/DNS or use l to query localhost
and options are APIcmd specific
API commands:
 sendMoney
 getTransactionBytes
 getTransaction
 broadcastTransaction
 decodeToken
 getPeers
 getPeer
 getAccountId
 getAccountBlockIds
 getAccountPublicKey
 getAccountTransactionIds
 getBalance
 getGuaranteedBalance
 assignAlias
 getAliasId
 getAliasIds
 getAliasURI
 listAccountAliases
 sendMessage
 getBlock
 getConstants
 getMyInfo
 getState
 getTime
 decodeHallmark
 markHost
use 'ncli APIcmd help' for more help on a particular API command

Code:

#!/bin/bash


# to update for additional API calls, enter the new command in the array API, but be sure to
# keep the case switch sections in the same order as in the API array
#

I wish the community is not honest, not surprisingly but the price falls to the nxt, unfair to the community



Community will pay for marketing, why can not I pay for Facebook?

I do not require rewards me hurt why not create a valid vote

This just in...newly leaked documents reveal the NSA collects hundreds of millions of text messages a day....THAT'S PER DAY!

I see a definite benefit of Nxt AM

Edit: http://rt.com/usa/nsa-collects-sms-messages-731/

According to leaked files obtained by the British media, the NSA has been collecting nearly 200 million text messages from the world’s cellphones every single day, occasionally using those records to further extract sensitive information such as location data, address book contacts and even financial details

It supports raw bytes, which could be anything.

It is a problem that there is no common definition yet on what messages and aliases hold. UTF-8? Is it plain text or encrypted? Should there be content-identifiers? MIME encoding?

So would that be a client-side decision to support unicode, or would CfB/Jean Luc have to be involved?

Alias URI supports UTF-8. If u need content-identifier for AM then put some kind of a magic word into the first bytes of ur messages (like "MZ" in the beginning of exe-files).

Do we need some sort of foundation (purely administrative) if so how would be the structure: can we achieve that in a decentralized way?

-   Chairman (multisig)
-   Secretary (multisig)
-   PR
-   TO (technical officer)
-   DEV
-   Member(multisig)
-   Member
-   Member

Yes, we do need this.  Yes we do yes we do yes we do.  

Salsacz has outlined in another thread a similar committee just for marketing, and we need that too.  

But IMHO we also need a purely administrative foundation to think about the organization and deployment of NXT in the months to come.  This will be especially critical since CfB has said recently he is only going to work on NXT core software itself until April, then he is going off to work on another feature for NXT called Project K.  BTNext and JeanLuc hardly post here at all,  certainly not to the same degree CfB does, and that's fine - they are doing an amazing job turning out new code versions.

NXT did not exist in any form before Sept 28, 2013.  NXT has made spectacular progress from one guy's idea and original post to a functional system with hundreds of deployed nodes and a widely held coin valued at 0.00004 BTC per unit in less than four months.  Organizing a foundation is the next logical step to keep this momentum going.

Let's do it.

I just want to say that I'm totally opposed to having a foundation govern Nxt or even govern the development of Nxt.  It's unnecessary bureaucracy and moving parts, and it will create many more problems than it will solve.  Gentoo Linux tried exactly that and it did not go well.

Thank you JeanLuc.

Ok, so two versions found:

https://github.com/swdunlop/WaspVM/blob/ce71767f5eea8d3768c7aba376c65ce8a13fdc73/vm/curve25519_i64.c
(looks to be unedited)


and https://github.com/swdunlop/WaspVM/blob/master/vm/curve25519_i64.c

Thank u for the link. Unfortunatelly, it doesn't contain an implementation of EC-KCDSA.

PS: BCNext modified original version of EC-KCDSA to increase requirements to hardware implementations of an Nxt wallet. This was supposed to increase protection of end users. But this also has some disadvantages, like inability to find other source code that does the same thing. I'm not even sure that the original contained such the code.

I don't even know what that means, but the guy just replied to me and I have his code. It seems to be the same as the source linked to, only it adds sign25519 and verify25519 methods. and there is another archive included by Michele Bini. Should I email it to you? what's your email?
