It's the perfect environment to build and test the first DAC's. Rather than having a service provider wield peoples hashes, this is the sort of thing that could all be handled by open source code running on the block chain *relatively* easily instead.

I think you mean 1000 TPS but the penalty wouldn't be much of a problem for pools as they effectively have as many accounts as the # of people who have leased forging rights to them (so it just means that they can't use certain "tickets").

Salsa, the form you signed says payment is due on signing and the signed form is to be sent to Steven Wilkinson at Steven@TexasBitcoinConference.com so that he can register the Sponsor and send the Sponsor an invoice.  Did you ever send a copy of the signed form to Steven?

I sent it to you and told you to fill your name (and telephone?) there so you could send it to Steven (" There still needs to be filled info about Nxt speaker there."). Did you fill it and sent it to Steven?

Sorry I'm not so familiar with these terms. What's a DAC?

Agreed.

when will i be lucky

You did not know my email address when you signed in Berlin, but you obviously knew my email address when you emailed it to me (after my repeated request), so I thought you were going to fill my email address in and send it on.  Once I heard you had talked with Paul Snow in Berlin about me speaking, I sent both him and the "TBC speaker" email address several emails with my full name, email address, biography and photo for use in his promotional materials, and I clearly identified myself as the NXT representative that had been coordinated in Berlin.

Your email to me read:

"Hi,
here is a contract between Nxt and texas conf. There still needs to be filled info about Nxt speaker there.
salsa"

So, no, I did not send the form in to Steven.  I did not know I was supposed to.  

If we need a fall guy to take the blame over this mixup then I will take the blame.  My bad.  This is now water under the bridge.  Let's move on.

It is probably too late to do anything about getting NXT officially involved in TBC now.  You haven't sent them $1000 and they haven't listed me as a speaker.  They have received no logo from us so we are not in their promotional literature.    We can still go in, shake hands, pass out business cards, hand out 200 flyers, and listen to Vitalik Buterin speak to everybody at TBC about Etherium.   Bottom line is that you have not spent any money yet on this conference and you have 20K NXT budgeted for it.   Passes at the door are $350 each and we need two, for me and Asian Prepper.  That's $700 or a $300 savings over what you were going to pay.  I suggest that you abandon attempts to get TBC to take the $1000 you haven't actually sent yet and instead send $700 of NXT to me at 16092180239932658439 so I can just get two door passes.

I await your directions.

I do not understand. You create only 1 block per year. What exactly do you expect? 1000 NXTs for that?

I recently pondered about the discussion of inequality. I think it only stems from a perceived stagnation of the value associated with the amount of NXT a person has.

Let A be amount of NXTs and t1 and t2 two different timestamps. Humans cannot clearly see why A@t1 and A@t2 is a different value (in terms of goods one could buy with them). They just see A. They'd rather have a higher amount in their account (like interest in bank accounts).

One should teach people that NXT is deflationary (will they understand?). The increase in value is achieved indirectly and not by changing digits of the account balance.

Why?
