I got the wallet working, but the official faucet kept giving me an error. I also probably didn't create a particularly strong password.
Any recommendations on what level of password strength/entropy are required for a sufficiently strong password?
I'm merely curious about NXT. I'd like to see what I could do with it. I actually know some Java but never really had any incentive to keep learning it.
subscribe to reddit.com/r/NXT and post in the tip-bot thread, and i will send you some NXT to start. Very well. I'll create a more secure password and do that.  Just need to finish up on some work and I'll get right on it. |

Maybe I should just disable debug logging by default, it only makes people think something is wrong. The intention was to make it easier to follow what is going on with the block and transaction processing, in the cases where something does go wrong.
These questions will disappear after they have familiarized themselves with nxt-core. It's a process. It takes time. Another issue: many folks have the fear that they are on a branch/fork. If you could find a way to demonstrate otherwise in the nxt.log. That would be great. Something like that: [date] INFO: ....
[date] INFO: ....
[date] INFO: Fork probability: 0.01%
[date] INFO: ....
[date] INFO: ....
[date] INFO: Fork probability: 0.1%
[date] INFO: ....
[date] INFO: Fork probability: 14.2% WARNING
[date] INFO: ....
[date] INFO: ....
But, I fear that would greatly increase overhead at least for Raspis. @J-L: Keep the debug logging on, I like seeing whats going on...... @ChuckOne: I find that u can almost always spot a fork by the number of unconfirmed transactions. If it ever gets over 20 or so, in my experience u are always on the wrong leg of a fork...and I've been there a few times. Maybe u could just use the number of unconfirmed tx as a forking probabilty indicator ? |

what about code something like : http://coinwidget.com it's open source so it's easy to modify this for Nxt |

Can someone explain me how to get rid of the local time issues (I'm on 0.7.6, but this happened also with previous versions)? For instance, I get the following message in the console:
[2014-02-19 19:47:27.452] DEBUG: Will pop block 8909105522996058296 at height 70422
and then in the NRS client I see this as an orphaned block with time 20:47:11 (i.e., one hour ahead of my true local time, which was really 19:47). My system clock is synchronized with NTP (Brasil/East), I'm using Mageia linux (version 3).

A passphrase of 12 unrelated and randomly choosen words is the best, I think the Diceware method should be the standard recommendation for newbies: http://world.std.com/~reinhold/diceware.htmlThat or use Keepass |

At this writing, NXT costs under 0.1 satoshi each.
should be "under 10000 satoshi", right? And you could mention the "solved" 51%-attack-problem, by POS-coins in general and especially with NXT and TF Thank you. I confused mBTC and satoshi. And good point about 51% attack, that is definitely another meme to put in there. I'm currently doing the automated multisig gateways, so not sure if I have time to get the "push button" coin creator by the time of Texas conference. Just change it to future tense and we should be good. Also, I think I figured out all the things that need to be done for a proof of concept automated multisig gateway. It has to be 3 community gateways and 2 of 3 multisig since that is all bitcoind supports for now. Still, I should be able to rapidly add support for all the altcoind's that are bitcoind forks. Then all cryptos will be able to be traded within NXT AE. Deposit and withdrawal to bitcoin/altcoin addresses automatic and multisig. You will therefore be able to go from any supported crypto to NXT to any supported crypto. Automatically! This is a limited trust solution, as the three gateways are peer reviewing each other. As long as we figure out how to have proper failsafe methods for gateway private key recovery in case two of them disappear at once, it will be safe in all but the scenario where all three gateways collude. After the initial release, we would probably want the three gateways to keep one third each of the reserve deposits in an offline wallet. Then again two of the gateways would need to be hacked before any unauthorized withdrawals could be made. My concern is that there is no way to detect that one of them was hacked. James P.S. At first I am just going to release support for dogecoin, that way any losses would be easily absorbable |

set your system to UTC then NTP sync with UTC, then change any DST/TZ settings to correct the clock. Just dont manually adjust the clock to correct for DST/TZ. Barring that, not sure what issues you are having |

Great summary, Ricky. Just a few comments:- True Anonymity
Bitcoin transactions between wallets are recorded forever on its blockchain. NXT achieves true transaction anonymity via the no-trust-needed zerocoin (testing now) / zerocash (coming soon) protocol developed at John Hopkins University.
What about BCNext's original built in mixing feature? "Nxt is being developed with payment privacy in mind. I have not revealed details yet, but I can say that there is a special account in Nxt (recipient #0), later it will be used for advanced features (mixing, escrow, etc.)". I assume this will be available in April? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=303898.msg3355477#msg3355477Transaction Rapidity
Bitcoin takes 10+ minutes per block for a max throughput of 7 transactions per second (TPS), currently using a 16GB (and growing) blockchain. NXT currently takes 1 minute per block, with improvements in block timing speedup and routine chain pruning expected to support an eventual 1000 TPS.
What about using automatic rather than "routine" chain pruning as per BCNext's original design? "Each 525949th block (1 year) the blockchain will be shrunk (and checkpointed)" https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=317607.msg3409786#msg3409786https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=303898.msg3372610#msg3372610Consider adding a very important feature "Instant transactions with guaranteed confirmation", again a key original design by BCNext. Edited: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=316104.msg3386387#msg3386387Thanks. |

Please don't. The message DO make it easier to follow what is going on. |

Barring that, not sure what issues you are having When I change it to UTC, it displays incorrect time (+3h from here). Don't understand, how do I do the things you described in the drakclock...  |

The project means paying for one person to do coding for about a month and one person running a dedicated server for a longer time. I was going tot contact you about this already. I was happy this was also possible, and was hoping to get total to 100,000 nxt. That way they would get ~ 2000 EUR in fiat each, which is a more normal sum, for developing multiple modules. I hope this is possible. If not, I'll understand, of course. I hope Pin will confirm we had this discussion in PM. BTW, I didn't tell my dev this. This was my decision. Just want to take care of the people I ask |
