NEM (XEM) Official Thread - 100% New Code - Easy To Use APIs

how many exchanges can NEM be listed?
it seems so hot in btt.

BTER, BTC38, Poloniex and Bittrex have all agreed to list NEM

Which is bloody brilliant

Nope, the design is not final. I think the front of the coin won't change much, but the back will be changed. Also, the words Proof-of-Importance will be put on the back. I think we'll use the back of the coin to explain the POI algorithm graphically.

I prefer the front of the golden coin. But on the front should be the amount of money and year should be added on back. I do not like that the value is written on the logo, like silver one.

How you explain POI algorith graphically? Can it be attached to NEM logo?

Just curious - who was the lead dev responsible for establishing relationships with all of the participating exchanges? xtester? patmast3r?  kodtycoon? Well done.

IIRC:
kodtycoon initially contacted poloniex (or poloniex even contacted him - not sure) about trading NEMStake (the asset) on poloniex. After it was decided not todo that i took over and handled poloniex since then.
The rest is all xtester and there is quite a bit of stuff that is yet to be revealed that was also managed by xtester.

Xtester really has done an oustanding job !

[mixmaster]

it looks that we have a new EXOCOIN with endless delays

I do understand your concerns, but the NEM developers (and I as well) think that it is more important to solve certain issues (multisig is a very important example) than launching "in time". I write "in time" because it was always just an estimation so people have an idea.

Of course this is what all the scam coin devs tell the people, too. To avoid mistrust we try to be as transparent as possible concirning the reasons of the delay.

For me the most important issue is the not yet implemented/well tested multisig feature. There will be development funds and they should not be managed by singular persons. Everybody should understand that this is for public benefit.

xtester is the man. Don't think he gets the credit he deserves. But in time as announcements are made people will realise the amount of work he has done. Big big thanks to xtester.

Is harvesting healthy for the network or just profitable for the miner?

healthy for the network but you need to have certain ports open to be of most benefit. It's the ones with ports open that are important.

Harvesting creates the blocks on the blockchain.

[dadingsda]

where can i open the ports? Or what ports do you mean?

edit: and just open the wallet without harvesting is useless?

Is there going to be or is there already a guide on setting this up to run 24/7?

Do you need to run it on Linux or can I just run it from windows ?

Edit. I intend to have a dedicated computer running windows and also running Node, EMU and NEM would also be a bonus if it runs with the other 2

It's good that we have beta builds, that are available for public testing.

Well for me it doesn't really matter because I never had my stake on the AE and I don't want to sell it.

But I can understand when people are upset about this. People already have a lot of experience with deadlines being pushed back again and again, and by having their stake on the AE it minimizes their risk because they have the ability to get out if things start looking bad.

Extending the deadline might not bring the effect you are hoping for because people want to keep trading until the last minute.

The next deadline that is set won't be extended.

Yeah!  Pretty excited.

+1, I believe lots of people are working hard behind the scenes with NEM, and even though I don't know exactly what xtester has in store for us, I think he has given it a good NEM try.

You should be able to run Node, EMU, and NEM all on a regular windows machine no problem.

having developer funds in multi-sig from day 1 is a very respectable thing to do.  it can really instill confidence in NEM

Could someone ELI5 multi-sig? And why it's vital for NEM to have it on launch?

You wanted eli5...here it is.

Imagine you have a huge pile of cookies in a jar that is locked. It's a special lock and you need 3 keys to open the jar. The cookies belong to you, your brother and your sister. To make sure noone is eating everyone elses cookies the jar can only be unlocked when all 3 keys are turned. So noone get's any cookies unless everyone aggrees to take some out of the jar.

jar = wallet
cookies = fuckloads of NEMs
people = NEMs community (obv. there won't  be 2000 keys)

the point is to not have a single person in controll of a huge amount of funds. Since we're going to have many NEMs sitting in funds we need multi-sig to make sure noone goes rouge.
