+ 1 NXT == x Vote { x = Func(accountBalance) = polynom * accountBalance}
+ 1 Account == 1 Vote { vote = Func(accountBalance) = 0.5 * accountBalance}
These won't work. They are easily defeated by splitting your wealth over several accounts. why not build the voting system after the decentralized asset issuing ,and make something like "voting asset", but this thing need to get distributed very smart/equal ... just a thought my 2 nxtoshi's...

My theme would be slide after slide: Bitcoin problem, NXT solution: currency distribution, blockchain bloat, PoW arms race, 51% attack, block confirmation speed (10 min vs 1 minute), transactions per second (1 currently / 7 max for BTC, 10,000 ultimate goal for NXT), etc. etc. etc.
Excellent strategy rickyjames! All you need to emphasize are instant transactions, earning coins from forging, anonymous messaging, and soon an anonymous marketplace - why on earth would anyone want to stick with Bitcoin?! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Don't go totally negative...people are gonna be shifting in their seats by around the 3rd negative anti-Bitcoin point. Emphasise NXT's strengths, not Bitcoins weaknesses. Make sure that the concept of NXT as an ecosystem, not purely a currency, comes thru strong. negative - positive .... yes, maybe not too negative. Usually, with humans, there is such a rule that if you want to say one negative point, you should tell two positive points *before* the negative one. (Sometimes there is no time to tell the positive things after the negative... ![Lips sealed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/lipsrsealed.gif) )

The people who don't "believe" in global warming choose to ignore about 97% of the science community. Global warming is a scientific fact by now. Don't really see why we should care about them.
True that. However, human contribution to it is not.

Focusing more on the green angle of NXT.
Please focus on energy conservation (which should be dictated by common logic) WITHOUT building the argument around Global Warming. Maybe this is a wise recommendation, since there are so many people who don't believe in global warming and so many people who believe in global warming. This shouldn't get in our way. The people who don't "believe" in global warming choose to ignore about 97% of the science community. Global warming is a scientific fact by now. Don't really see why we should care about them. No, it's not, and if anybody thinks that using Global Warming as a talking point for Nxt is a good idea, they shouldn't have anything to do with marketing and such. It's a polarizing farce that we really shouldn't attach ourselves to.

Hey, guys and gals, I would be interested in representing NXT at the Texas Bitcoin Conference on March 5-6. I am in the American South not very far away (relatively speaking) and just checked, I can get a round trip jet ticket to Austin for under $300 if I book soon. The conference fee is $275 until the end of January, $325 starting in February. If the devs/community could back me for $1000 (currently around 10K NXT), I volunteer to cover this. I will kick in 20% of my annual vacation time from my day job. I am an aerospace engineer in real life, one thing I know how to do is make concise, organized presentations of complex topics... http://texasbitcoinconference.comwant a wingman?

Thanks, ricky. I'll see if I can work out exactly how much an offset program will cost. I made the mistake of choosing a Russian girl as my drinking companion once.....that did not end well for EvilDave.
You got married? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Funnily.....I ended up with a lovely woman who doesn't drink at all On the same topic: never try to drink Swedish girls under the table, either. Or Icelanders..... NO DEBATING GLOBAL WARMING, please. Can we agree on using energy conservation and maybe CO 2 offset as NXT features/Unique Selling Points? I'm only evil to those who really, really, really deserve it, Eh, FrictionlessCarlosRex(the man and the corporation)TM ?
KGB...LOL...thats kinda flattering.
Going afk for an hour or 3...

What a PR company ? You have a hole in the protection of transactions !
-----
Imagine people who steamed in their own backyard . They have no time to think about the challenges they want to use a payment system that does not give them bude hassle . Entered the password , confirmation introduced in Yasha or btc-e and all . Ran on to do their business . Many people do not know words such as Linux , trojan, keylogger . And now imagine you come to that and start - put Dev , and he'll - faq ? , You tell him it Linux - and he's already dumped and you're talking to a void .
Here are the guys in the British branch going great PR do to entice people . Well, people will come, look . Most zavedut stupidly simple password and zavedut nekst and a month later BEGIN IS , even if 10% of them swipe loot - they zasrut NXT their saliva . Do you think 10% is not enough? Look at all the revolutions and riots fucking dickhead sweep 5 % of the state and country, and you're talking about a gnat compared to them as virtual crypt . A month later, NXT will be death and moral reputation , and then fuck it correct.
All excuses and moralizing about the environment and other complication is for geeks , but gikah rate will not increase , there are few . And for ordinary people need - easily and safely . Well, they do not like to think and ochkovat .
If I was out of Bitcoin community , I'd ordered hundreds of articles about this weakness NXT and bury his reputation. If the matter remains as it is, it will sdelatv any time. That all will grow , everyone will be happy , and leave open the anus . That's it and introduce the vaccine. Mark my words and do not complain later on such black PR company.
It is necessary to think about it in advance, nefig uspokaivatsya ! ! Work to do - protect figachit transactions. From ideas to code.
+1. Totally agree. We need design a system for average joes, not only for geeks. Do you know what is the most popular password in this world? It is something like 1234password. We have to enforce the safest pass phrase format in the client when users set up their accounts. Period!

Going afk for an hour or 3...there is no need to focus on externalities because that cost isnt externalized. its born fully by the user of the pow network in the form of inflation and higher transaction fees. that is to say that bitcoin isnt causing people to consume more or less in general, it is causing them to simply alter their consumption habits into more energy focused consumption. Consuming energy instead of other raw materials (trees or animal skin or gem stones ect..) isnt better or worse for the environment its just a different cost. finding and burning coal inorder to run an asic isnt better or worse for the environment than cutting down trees to build houses, its just bad in a different way.

Bitcoin NXT+-10% inflation + Fees paid to miners 0% inflation, currently $0.07 fees paid (At a cost of +-$100 per user per $1000 per year) back to active users based on holdings. What do you get for $1 Billion per year in costs? What do you get for virtually free? Centralised mining- GHash.IO gained over 40% hashing Decentralised mining & no double spend possible power allowing 6 confirmation double-spends 50% of the even with 90% of coins/network time and they have double-spent in the past. Very low transactions per second Able to handle Visa/Mastercard transaction rates 10 minute block times 1 minute block times and options for expedited transactions. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dinopit.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2012%2F08%2Fdinosaur-extinction-cartoon.jpg&t=665&c=JrIV8T0RavtlDw)

Roger. If I am selected as a speaker, one thing I want to do for sure is throw two or three boxed Raspberry Pis into the audience during the talk.
"NXT nodes! Get your cheap NXT nodes!"
Hell yeah! Well, I have made reservations for my plane ticket, hotel and car rental (total amount including tax: $614.92 USD) to the Texas Bitcoin Conference March 5-6: http://texasbitcoinconference.com/I also sent in an email asking to get included on their speaker list. We will see what happens, I'll let you all know what they say. I went to Austin a decade ago on a business trip. I am looking forward to a drive in the country to the little ghost town of Taylor, TX and a return trip to one of the best BBQ restaurants on Earth: http://www.louiemuellerbarbecue.com/Hmmm...guess the only thing left is to tell my wife about all of this when she wakes up...

Update 10 - Bitcoin Conference Miami
eB101 arrived early this morning, we're walking around... shaking hands and make final Nxt pitches at the conference. Had an opportunity to talk with the guys over a Bitshares, we talked about everything ranging from PoS to encouraging communities to continue to be extremely civil and educating people that either misunderstand (intentionally or not so intentionally) PoS and next gen systems. It was a great contact, we are eager to build relationships with other innovators in the space.
Btw, we just got out of the Entherium speech, interesting ideas. 2014 will certainly be the year of smart contracts/property.
