NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[gimre]

I did notice it, but I don't decide this question. The community does.

What is your opinion on that?

I think it's a bad approach. We should rely on protocol version.

Ok, so could something like protocolVersion be added to getInfo POST?

Protocol version is sent with each peer request.

Now, I finally know what it is!
If so, why it isn't changed when (fork-resulting) changes are released?

No offense but: stop complaining, start doing.

I am sorry, but this may be the most silly thing someone has said to me in a while.

It's best to just ignore. I am slowly coming to realize that there is sadly a big portion of this community that don't want anyone to raise any questions about anything. It's beginning to look more and more like politics. Being critical is politically incorrect and thus frowned upon.

I apologize. It wasn't meant in any way offensive.

That poll is just a fallback in case the committee solution shouldn't work out.

Otherwise, it has nothing to do with it. I voted for the committee solution myself and I really appreciate its progress. You've done a great job. Continue concentrating on it.

Don't worry, I've developed a rather thick skin

I just see unfortunate side effects of this poll. I agree that when we don't get consensus (which I rather doubt) this may be a true last resort. That is two months from now.

A lot can and will happen in that time. No worries

guys I have an artist friend who wants to get into crypto, she wants to do her art for NXT! she does portraits, mixed media, and other painting stuff (yours truly is a total idiot regarding art here), But her work is really awesome, also she does tattoos, Whenever you are in Puerto Princesa, Palawan, The Philippines, you can get a custom tat for NXT!

any ideas guys?

There are MANY good developers here who want to contribute to the Nxt ecosystem!


Why aren't we collecting ideas which could be turned to functional websites/services. For this we could reserve like 4M NXT. After we have about 10-15 project ideas we assign a bounty to each. Now everyone who comes forward and wants to do it, get the bounty.


Remember, if we have a GOOD product, we don't really need advertisements or marketing!



Also, what do you think about getting the funds from the unused NXT for the reddit campaign? We don't need much, but if we could get 50k NXT we would have many possibilities on reddit to advertise.

Guys, services are important!

We should open NXT IDEA THREAD on nextcoin & nxtcrypto.org and pick top 10 to fund....50,000 Nxt each....that will get the ball rolling

I was wondering: how can you make a transaction to someone, without getting him to know your account balance?

For example, if I take a random transaction: http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=2000&tra=15605582137631492127. We see that the person transferred 12 NXT. Image he or she transferred it to a shop. The shop can easily trace this transaction in the blockchain to find out he has 48,040 NXT in his account. The shop knows his or her name and can now start to track the account of this person. Not really something I would like Amazon to know.

So how to hide your account balance? Could the "Decentralized Mixing Service" help us out here? I'm curious .

the last resort is really dumb, even worse than sending back to genesis. With so many talents in Nxt community, Unable to reach a reasonable solution is ridiculous.

Talents need some focus from time to time. So, relax they will find a solution. Btw. you can help: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=445209.0

PS: I am really proud to be part of this community.

Me, too.

A contingency to prevent destruction is actually not a bad idea at all, but for reasons I'm sure everyone, even ChuckOne is unaware of...

Has nobody thought of what it will look like externally if the coins get destroyed?  There is already the hoarding thing.  And Thanks to Anon136 for calling these people out in his video interview, but if the coins get destroyed then the net result will look like the hoarders are trying to increase the value of their hoard even moreso.  Yes, it will be a linear increase based on an account owners stake, but still...

Better to find a constructive use of the coins, a much needed side benefit of is to increase liquidity, since there are apparently still a few genesis hoarders.

I have a few of these lined up.  
I'm pulling together a team of developers and designers to work on just these.
ETA for a plan is about one week. These people have jobs and need time to go over the material I dumped on them  

But if all goes to plan, I think you will be pleasantly surprised

We should open NXT IDEA THREAD on nextcoin & nxtcrypto.org and pick top 10 to fund....50,000 Nxt each....that will get the ball rolling

Good idea!

We don't need it coz till April the development is centralized on Jean-Luc. He said to upgrade to 0.5.11 and we should do as he said.

I don't see how this can happen. I downloaded 0.5.11 and made fresh install. No blocks.nxt and transactions.nxt at all. They have built up perfectly. No forks so far.

Need 4.5btc guys so before i head over to bter anyone interested in purchasing 55k nxt which is roughly 0.00008200
Id prefer an active thread member tht i see here everday to trade with pm if interested.

[google98]

If you guys gave me some catch phrases I could possibly create a teaser/trailer for nxt; just lacking creativity atm

something like

1000 TPS
...
Colored Coins
...
Get involved
...
NXT - next gen crypto currency
(I know that looks weird, as I said, I need some creative input )

It should be the key aspects of NXT and a description of those in keywords (so that it's usable for a trailer)

Any ideas?

Edit: The idea is to give a rather "dark" view of the current state of affairs with regard to crypto currencies and NXT emerging as something innovative worth buying...
