No one said you cant like both I just said I didn't like NXT. Do we have to like using everything?
But almost no Qora supporters are against NXT its just NXT user were the one who often stated that Qora didnt add to the already innovative NXT.
My point was dig a bit deeper then that idea is a little flawed.
Problem is no one wants to address that cause unfortunately most involved in Qora actually would prefer NXT to succeed than Qora. Most here are NXT'ers first and Qora fans second. Its hard to get any real strong support of Qora.
I am a NXTer and QORA holder. My main problem is that qora is still closed source. People I trust looked at NXT and said that the code was pretty much bulletproof, a thing I can't say for QORA.
Not that I dislike QORA because of that, but I wouldn't call QORA innovative when all we know the code could be completely broken on logical levels..
Just a few comments.
Am I correct in saying that NXT has not always been open source. My understanding is that it's been in and out of open/close source while specific features are being developed. Personally I have no problem with Qora being closed source at this point, or any coin remaining closed source for certain periods of time. There are already wolves at the gate, waiting to pounce on the code! It's just smart to stay closed until the coin is at a certain stage of development and has gained some market share.
Arbitrary Transactions is now available. The API has been released. This would be a great time for some developers to start creating their own projects using Qora. Could community funds be used for bounty projects, or for paid Qora development? Not talking about core development, but projects built on top of Qora. Perhaps a competition or hackathon for Qora projects could be promoted. That would kill two birds with one stone, increased visibility, plus new features for Qora!
We need to alleviate some of the uncertainty for developers who are on the fence about involving themselves with this coin. Nobody wants to invest a ton of time into something that could fall flat on it's face. Paying developers, rewarding with bounties, or competition winnings at least give devs something for their efforts in the short term. If they are not comfortable with Qora they can sell them for BTC and walk away, or they can continue on with Qora. There is no reason for Qora not to have solid developers working in the community.
Qora, the developer, allows for community voting on core features. Likewise, the marketing committee should begin taking suggestions for projects built on top of Qora, put those suggestions to a vote, and allocate community funds to pay a developer to build them.
Any thoughts on this?
