It is not a good strategy to put the success or failure of a 100 million usd project in the hands of one person... If nextern can't deliver the client for whatever reason, there is no chance for a mass adoption. And the other projects are also developing. Like the asset exchange for btc announced today.

Heres my piece of advice for today:

Don't Panic!

NXT is having a problem right now, but it's not a very big problem, if you can step back and look at it objectively.

 EpicThomas showed us how easy it is to release modified client software and exploit it to steal funds, but the NXT community jumped on it pretty quickly and came up with solutions, evidence, a suspect and froze the stolen funds out from the exchanges.  All inside a few hours of the 3rd or 4th theft report coming in.
Have any of the trolls/pessimists ever seen a faster response to a security issue in the crypto/IT world?  

And then everyone affected got compensated.....unbelievable, but true. Salute to gbeirn, u r a hero.

Just to put this into proportion: total stolen was 300 kNXT, which is only 0.03 % of the total supply.
There were approximately 10-20 accounts compromised, which is at most 0.3 % of all NXT accounts.

And we should (almost) thank EpicThomas for making everyone raise their security game, it will now be much harder for an attacker to distribute compromised software again. That attack vector is closed right now. And is not a problem that only affects NXT, btw, all cryptos are vulnerable to this sort of exploit, so watch out for dodgy DOGE wallets in the future.

Time for a Nietsche mis-quote: "Whatever doesn't kill you, only makes u more money"




@EpicThomas:
You and your stolen NXT arent going anywhere. You can't convert it into fiat currency without going thru an exchange or the NXT blockchain.
Someone, sooner or later, will figure out who u are in the real world and come round to your house.
I suggest you take rickyjames up on his offer, give it back, and u can go on with yr life without looking over yr shoulder all day.

I'm a little new to this Java client... How do I shut it down?

ctrl+c or task manager

Call me troll.

We shal see if you can sell your webpage with four icons, coz that is all you have.

Do you realy think people wil bother making .bat files, and using commands and API, forget it people will never adopt it. Its over and out. You all should have took the chance while you've got it but oooh no...

In this hard business there is only one place that counts and that ia number 1.

knowing you will still have nothing next mont eMunie (propre finished product and featuresà is the winner and there is no place for second

1st in Mobile...the android apps are coming along well.....and we all know mobile is the future.

 

 Edit: and yes ....we also do iOS

can;t wait for messaging to launch in a few weeks time....do you do messaging?

I realy do respect your work sir, but without a client you better stop loosing your time here.

No one will bother using API strings etc... no client = no product.

and yes eMunie is a finished product that will blow all your efforts away just becaus you will always be second!

LOL at that stupid attempt to emulate stable currency. Nothing to talk about. Really .

what's your daily USD turn over?


NXT is 750,000 thousand dollar over last 24 hour.....have you done that number in a week?

Nexern is a great guy and I am sure he will come up with a superb client, but we (especially the developers) can´t sit back and wait for this guy to make us rich. I am not a developer myself, but will do everything possible to make Nxt a success story. Like I did in the last 5 weeks. I took 3 days off and will fly over to Berlin in february to the Bitcoin Conference to spread the word and make people aware of Nxt, but we need to hurry up with all the development as others are coming up with features we believe will make Nxt big, like the eschange for Bitcoin which was announced today...
