NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[freigeist]

In the meantime, I wish to report that 0.7.0 is running successfully with an H2 database backend, no more serialized java object files. No need to keep all blocks and transactions in memory anymore.

great, any ETA already?

First CfB should port the Asset Exchange bugfixes and new APIs to 0.6.0, and at the same time I plan to do some profiling and optimizations of 0.7.0 if needed, and then merge the 0.6.0 and 0.7.0 branches. I wrote most of the db code yesterday and today, and I am running it for the first time now. Let's see how many stack traces I find in the log tomorrow morning. Hope to have it ready for release by the end of the week.

Hello.

Will the current web client at
http://localhost:7874/ and https://localhost:7875/
still be available in versions 0.6.0 or 0.7.0 and further?

Thanks.

CfB, let's play a game.  I have a very good theory on who BCNext is.  I would like to send you a PM with just a name in it, no long paragraphs or words, just a name, just this one time and I only get just this one chance.  I will not pester you with follow up guesses.  If I have correctly deduced who BCNext is, I give you my word that I will keep it a secret and communicate it to no one online or offline.  I only want the satisfaction of knowing my detective / research skills are good... or not.  If I send you this PM, will you tell the community if I am right or if I am wrong?

2 weak points in ur proposal:

1. U assume that ur PM won't be read by forum admins.
2. U assume that I know the real identity of BCNext.

Let me clarify.  I do not claim to know his REAL identity either.  However, BCNext himself has acknowledged being a long time poster at BCT under another user ID.  I believe I know that BCT user ID.  Do you know that?

If so, one day I will send you an anonymous message on the NXT blockchain revisiting this topic.

EDITED TO ADD: Thank you for not listing me possibly not keeping my word as a weak point in my proposal.

Let's play the game but we fix the weak points in such a way:

1. U post ur guess in this thread, I'll answer it publicly as well.
2. I tell TRUE or FALSE according to my guess regarding the real identity of BCNext.

PS: And then u'll tell why u think so, ok?

Hi here

One question is bothering me for a while: is there any plans to create a solution of accepting NXT in e-shop, etc.? I mean payment tool, like bitpay for example.

Now we are spending thousands of NXT for 1 minute on radio, while we could spend on payment tool development. Now we just spend our NXT on exchanges, in other words come like a squirrel in the wheel.

Or did I miss something?

There is 40,000 NXT bounty for project to accept NXT via standard shopping cart modules. wesleyh is working with another guy on this.

Thanks, it is what I wanted to know.

That's the 4th part of BCNext's plan.

James, how is the mixing implementation coming along?

So it comes in around 3rd of July?

With all this Gox panic, is the perfect moment to release the AE.
The perfect solution, There will no other best moment for the market,that would be true marketing.

On 7th of Feb we r planning to starting the testing. There is no point to hurry up. I would release it on exactly the same date as any other decentralized exchange. This would save us a lot of money on marketing.

what do you mean by this? Is it that you plan to release it when eMunie release theirs? I am not too sure what did you mean.

I've been in contact with wesleyh about this, because I am working on it, too.
At this moment he is building a new client, too, and giving that priority.
He was kind enough to give me access to his work and give me tips on how to go about.
My guy is currently testing and will report back once he is satisfied all is well and safe.
After that the plan is to make modules for all existing open source e-commerce platforms.

No ETA from my side yet, but I am hoping for a working model soonish (1-2 weeks). But that's just a wish on my part, I won't know for certain till I hear back from my developer.

As some guys who reviewed Nxt code already noticed it's quite easy to add new features to Nxt core. All that required is to add a new type/subtype and some code that processes it. After we start testing Asset Exchange I'll have a couple of weeks when I'll be fixing possible bugs mostly. It's quite a boring task and I have to switch to other (more interesting) things time to time to keep working at near-100% effectiveness. We (community) could add our own (not BCNext's one) feature to Nxt. I'm thinking of cloning main Ethereum feature - contracts powered with Turing-complete language. I ask the community if there is anyone who understands Ether concept deeply enough and could consult us.

PS: If Turing-complete language is a too tough task then we could pick some other feature.

Being able to trade ACTUAL bitcoin, litecoin, DOGE, etc. using NXT will be a very powerful feature and put a dent into all the centralized exchanges. Maybe using AE and AM or maybe just directly.

Need to do blockchain operations to all the other cryptos that are supported which is not as crazy as it sounds:

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Atomic_cross-chain_trading
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Contracts#Example_5:_Trading_across_chains

Since I am supposed to be technically incompetent, I think it would be a good thing for you to comment on whether this is impossible to do with NXT

I mean that I would release it simultaneously with any other decentralized exchange for the fun of competition and free marketing. Luckily for the community I don't decide such things.

OK.

I think BTNext's previously used BCT username was/is Ukigo.

Lets try  

I propose a TURING - COMPLETE COMMITTEE:

CFB
ANON
NXTCHG
BLOODYROOKIE

Sorry, I am too incompetent to be deserving to talk with nxtchg, plus CfB can do this turing complete stuff in a week or two with his team.
