NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[pinarello]

I say, good luck to DOGE.

They do a remarkable job spreading a feel good message.
Nxt does a totally different things, so I am a bit surprised people get so upset about Doge taking off.

It's a different beast and has its own curve of growth and decline. Comparing it to Nxt and vice versa is useless.

I for one am glad that at this moment it offsets the negativity surrounding BTC.

At this moment we have few things to offer to people who use Doge, so why waste energy worrying about it? We do good work at developing Nxt and that will pay off in the future. Price is unimportant at the moment. We are still attracting people. Even better, at the moment we are attracting people who are interested in a system that is developing, rather than people who want to quickly pump and dump.

So far as I see, we are doing well

Amen

Thanks JL!

Added startForging and stopForging API requests.
Parameters: secretPhrase, required for both starting and stopping.

While you are at it, can we have "isForging":0/1 returned with getAccount?

+1

I have been asking since December!

Then we need "isForging" : yes/no/notAvail coz we don't know if OTHER accounts r forging.

I don't know if anyone cares on here, but one guy has taken up the challenge and is currently working on the reddit tip-bot. He says he will need about one more week, and it looks promising!

One more pitch for diaspora*, along with obligatory screenies and dimension properties.

Why not give this a try? You can sign up quickly through my link,

"Human verification failed? "

<hint> It would be muuuuuch easier if we could just login with Nxt, right? </hint>

We r testing Asset Exchange

Go to https://holms.cloudapp.net:6875/ and create an account. Don't use an account that exists on the main network! After u get the account id u can play such a game:

- Post here ur account.
- I'll check the 1st letter of ur nickname. If the letter wasn't used before then I'll send u 200'000 Test NXT, now u r supposed to send 10'000 to each guy who asks for test NXT and has the name starting with the same letter as urs.
- Download an Asset Exchange client and use it to help us with the testing.

@ AE client devs:

I don't have time to test AE right now.  

Is there an insightful tester (or semi insightful ) who will sum up the experience for next week's newsletter + possibly an article on nxter.org?

Deadline is sunday.

Hey Jean-Luc... no more database issues with 0.7.2!!!    

Maybe there is hope for the raspberry owners after all... let's see what they report.

It's usable since 0.7.2 on Raspberry Pi:
https://nextcoin.org/index.php/topic,1277.msg37003.html#msg37003

But i still have some problems unlocking my account with many transactions, if i unlock one with just 2 transactions it works fine...

I just made a statistic about nxt balance distribution.
the current percentage of top100/top500/top1000/top2000 acounts are 82.7%、96.6%、98.9%、99.7%, respectivey,
the variation curves is as follow:

there're about 22k nxt accounts for the time being, among these accounts, there're 15k  whose balance are more than 0.
among the 15k accounts, more than 60 percent have less than 10 balance:

current Gini coefficient of nxt system of top100/500/1000/2000/6000/15000 are 0.5、0.79、0.86、0.92、0.97、0.988 respectively:

Gini vs nxt price:

No, I will not. If I run a public node I may want to allow API requests to it, yet I don't want people to be able to tell which accounts are forging on that node. To start or stop forging requires the secretPhrase, similarly obtaining information about forging status should also require it.

When you'll ban hallmarking?

Although I agree with James that for some kinds of "assets" it makes sense to be able to effectively "add more quantity" but it does not make sense for things that are "shares" and in fact it would be very dangerous to allow that as your shares could just suddenly become worthlessly diluted by the issuer.

Perhaps for your cases James just issue 1 Billion in the first place and put up "asks" only for those that you have "stock" for at any current time.

What? Issuing new shares is a very common thing

Agreed. But don't you think we need to differentiate between fixed/dynamic assets?
