NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[Damelon]

I would much prefer a grassroots kind of marketing.
If Nxt gets tied to a "movement" it will *certainly* backfire.

Let them find out from the fact that individuals are adopting it en masse.

That's far enough in the future for me to arrange days off work.
I can be there.

+1000...etc.

Maybe we should change C-f-B's nick to Comes-from-Below.

Let the mass-market press come to us, when they start to wonder what all the buzz is about.

I'm up for it.
I could arrange for promo material (Cards, brochures, T-shirts etc) to be printed up locally.
Let's move this over to the nextcoin thread to get the details worked out.

Can anyone offer some suggestions on getting NXT to work on a Mac? I installed Java and downloaded the NXT client, and when I run the command:

java -jar start.jar

I get an error that starts like this:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: org/eclipse/jetty/start/Main : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0

Update Java to v1.7. You may have downloaded it but that error means your Mac is still using the old version.

Also: read the wiki! http://wiki.nxtcrypto.org/

Hey,

what do you mean exactly with review and articels?
Do i get the NXT when i promote NXT on Big german forums too?
Where are over 100k Users?

Second Question.
When i can make it that the biggest german News Site (100 million too 1 billion clicks in a month) write about NXT (bild.de), how much NXT do i get?

The idea of promoting Nxt via Bild is ridiculous. Our audience is not the yellow press readers.
this is just dumb.

About 13 million people read the Bild in germany everyday, when only 1000 people jump on the nxt train, it would be a success.
What is so wrong at it too post an article at big news sites?

first of all you don't seem to know how the press works. how would you want to make them publish your article?
second there are other media with much less readers, who are much more likely to get hooked and therefore this media would publish something on Nxt more likely. your take on mediacampaigns is quite naiv.
I would hate to see an article about Nxt next to a nude girl in the yellow press. this is disgusting.

ifightformerkel, just let this go please. It's a stupid idea (to put it bluntly).

This! +1e10

I can somehow see why right libertarians are ready to hump anything crypto, but we shouldn't help them along actively.

To me, it doesn't matter who humps what (may want to rephrase that...), but any kind of "official" connection will most probably backfire.
I have my political ideas too, but I want to keep them out of business.

Generally the publicity caused by a mention of Bild.de would drive the price up into insane hights. Always remember, there is no bad pubilicity. Not with the amount of users the whole crypto market has right now.
Just look at the numbers: 13 million readers, about 3 million crypto users.

A couple of years back they made an article about one of the early pornsites. Youporn I think. Not sure but anyway. Guess how the tone was. How disgusting they described it.
Now guess what happened to the number of users....

The thing right now is that you have to overcome significant hurdles to get NXT.
In Germany you have to get BTC first and then convert it into NXT.
Besides that there is still the issue with the lack of a client.
My wife just mentioned it. The major amount of Bild readers won't even be able to understand how to get the client working. They won't even know what java is.

So, to conclude this:
A mention in Bild is a powerful publicity. The most powerful cryptos in general might have had up until now, because Bild has such a large readerbase and it is close to smaller people, those who like to hate about banks and "the guys up there".
It is just not the time to have it mentioned there. The infrastructure is not in place and as long as it isn't, a mention would really do more harm than good.
The moment it becomes easy to get into NXT, the moment we have a big shining gate, something as easy as buying some DickWat for a zynga game or a new ringtone, will be the moment to have us mentioned there.
Do it and the real revolution starts. Just don't do it at the wrong moment.

And now is the wrong moment
