Anyone into NXT here (in newbie forum ?

I really want to get into NXT, spread the word. What do you think about the purely proof-of-stake concept?

would love to invest but lack of options to purchase securely.

This is what you posted in October, but BCNext did not run away with the bitcoins like you thought. Do you think you could be wrong now?

I'm holding a small amount and can already make substantial gains on it if I sell now but tbh, this coin needs a lot of work and needs to go on better exchanges as-well if it's ever to see the light of day.

I'm in for the long run.

I'm also in for a long run. The devs team are working hard and efficiently,imo.

It doesn't matter how hard the developers work.  A crypto-currency that is released with a billion pre-mined coins will never get off the ground.  That is a massive amount of coins.  This alone will ensure failure, but to add icing to the cake it comes with additional problems and is not even open source which is the most fundamental trait of bitcoin.

Sigh* You have no clue what you are talking about. It's not even worth to argue with people like you who think they are experts after a few days.
Nxt is not like any of the existing Crypto's, not a copy cat, that's why it is closed source. And there is no-premine, it's not a premine, people paid to get those, and you know what, EVERYONE could participate in the funding. All the coins are already distributed. For a few miliBTC you could get some coins. You didn't, too bad. We are moving on with colored coins and a decentralized exchange.

What if there are just one thousand coin? What would be changed in your eyes?

[aoco88]

yes i like nxt because it no need block download

[Crystaleyes]

Looked interesting, but I never managed to get the software to install so walked away...

 Life's too short....

 

 And to the member who posted that all that really matters is (perceived) value... It's coz of self-centred people like you that the world in such an imbalanced mess.
 keep dreaming, that material reward and accumulation is the measure of success.... 

Are you from the States?

How is it centralized?  Is it due to a handful of people receiving all the coins initially and then distributing them?

I'm willing to give it a try.

Proof of Stake would be not bad if it would work reliable but they are still some problems with it.
Like need of checkpoints, which are centralized. Decentralized checkpoints are technically not solved.
But if it is anyway centralized then it doesn't matter if it is double centralized.
As far as I know NXT is closed source(at least partly), premined all 1 billion coins, centralized and still doesn't work.

 Just to clarify, before the thread takes a wrong turn) that I don't hate anyone.

 Unfortunately, blind greed without consideration of the consequences, has been a hallmark of United States in recent years, although Israel, modern Britain and France fit seamlessly alongside.
