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.

were the guys "from" dogcoin there?

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.

I would even say energy COST should be the focus.  Current energy costs makes Bitcoin mining marginally profitable at best when you run the numbers, while NXT on a Raspberry Pi runs at 25 nodes for the same power as a 100 W incandescent lightbulb.  

Also focus on the transparent forging, the 10000tps. It will be the true innovation of NXT and change the world.

Hi folks. I live in New York, and can be at the April conference.

Nice. Let me guess: You need some NXT for this? SCNR...

No, I don't.

One of my colleagues is speaking on a panel, and my firm has a number of conference passes for other attorneys to attend.

I'm out on vacation until the 28th, but am skimming this thread and over at nextcoin.org in the meantime, and would be happy to chat with anyone after that to see if I can help out.

+1.

great

Will be interesting to see whether this has any effect on the nxt price

+ 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.

May seem to on the first glance. But you have to pay fees in order to do so; which is a good thing for the whole Nxt community.

On a serious note:
Ricky: have u got some numbers on NXT and energy consumption or do I have to actually do some........research?

But note my corrections:

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?  

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 CO₂ 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...

The data above is kinda outdated. Hungman and I work on an improved version which should be more resistant to people that try to poke holes into it

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!

The clients will come out, they get better, more secure. It will work.

I would even say energy COST should be the focus.  Current energy costs makes Bitcoin mining marginally profitable at best when you run the numbers, while NXT on a Raspberry Pi runs at 25 nodes for the same power as a 100 W incandescent lightbulb.

In a few years, I want the average joe using NXT without knowing he uses NXT.

Great News. THANKS PIN

Have not met anyone from doge here. The main reps were:

the order isn't quite right yet

Voting:

in the first place I would like to know how voting should work.

a) who sets up a poll? - probably everyone since we don't have any central authority, right?
b) what kind of poll can we set up?
c) how will the majority vote take effect?

[bitcoinpaul]

...
It's a polarizing farce that we really shouldn't attach ourselves to.

That's all there is to say. Leave it at energy costs and other implications.

[starik69]

c) how will the majority vote take effect?

AFAIK voting is only for opinion, no "legal" consequences.

Is there a chance of diluting accounts by paying transaction fee for splitting over several accounts?

[salsacz]

Btw, where is Come-from-Beyond?

Haven't seen him a while. To be honest he shouldn't be sleeping, let alone be missing for days.

He said before he won't be online during the Miami conf, so there is some offline activity. First after 2 months
