Nxt Community News and Announcements / I step down as a Global Moderator

« on: March 06, 2016, 03:24:17 pm »

Hello Everyone,

From today on I will no longer be a global moderator on the Nxt forums. I recently started a crypto-currency platform called Lisk and want to concentrate on that task. (Questions please via PM, I don't want to promote it in this announcement!)

It was a great time and I wish you all the best.

See you!

Cheers,
Max

Nxt General Discussion / Nxt.org now under new management by the NxtFoundation

« on: August 14, 2015, 04:13:52 pm »

Hello guys,

like some of you know I was responsible for Nxt.org the last months. It was one of the responsibilities the NxtOrganization had. The NxtOrganization dissolved in June, because the team had other things to do and we couldn't attract new & active members out of the Nxt community.

Since then Nxt.org was not improved anymore, I only maintained the necessary parts. (Updating the download links and adding/removing links to other Nxt pages)

Therefore the NxtFoundation took over and is now responsible for updating and maintaining the page. I'm 100% not involved anymore.

I'd like to thank yassin54 for all the help. He contacted me very often, because of a dead link somewhere or some section needed to be updated. Would be cool if you can send him some tip.

PS: If Nxt.org is not maintained by the NxtFoundation, Damelon please say it. I will fix it in the text then.

Assets Board / Official closure of my asset KGallery

« on: February 28, 2015, 10:06:46 am »

Hello everybody,

as some of you know a few months ago I started my very own website called KGallery, additionally with an asset with the same name. It was a gallery for art newcomers, on which they could sell their artworks for Nxt, Euro and Dollar. After two months, in which I started several campaigns and got in contact with a handful artists, I needed to close it.

The reason is, that my local bureaus saw the website and thought that I am self employed. This would have resulted in much higher pay rates for energy and gas. As I can't and don't want to go the complicated way through lawyers I canceled my little side project. Please note, that it has nothing to do with Nxt being a crypto-currency. Its only problem was, that the project looked too professional/official and that I didn't informed myself enough about possible consequences.

Therefore I am now closing everything related to it. The child board is already deleted since weeks. There were only a few (3 I think) investors, anyone who wants their money back just get in contact with me.

The money was used for domain, space, some stock images, the asset issuance and quite a few art tools I bought for the charity campaign.

Thank you very much.

Greetings,
Max

Nxt Organization / I'm nearly absent for the next two months

« on: February 03, 2015, 08:27:47 am »

Hey guys,

for the next two months I'm nearly absent from the forums and the NxtOrganization. Like every half year I have to take care of my exams at university.

If anyone wants to take over in the meantime, please do so.

Nxt.org will still be maintained! I have a list with things, which still needs to be done. I will also update the download links immediately, so you don't have to be worried about that.

Nxt Organization / Week 12 - (Jan. 19 - Jan. 26)

« on: January 20, 2015, 06:39:17 pm »

The last two week brought us some huge advancements for Nxt.org.

This week (and probably the following ones) we will try something new, as we now have two more contributors again (Uniqueorn and domsch). We will try to approach different groups directly and looking into ways to let them take a look at Nxt.

Main buzz words here are "Academic research", "Non-crypto folks" and further businesses / startups for Nxt.

Along side this I will further enhance Nxt.org, if you have any suggestions just PM me. I currently have one list of ideas from farl4web. Komputor will also give me much input, ideas and texts this week.

We will probably also enhance the Nxt demo because we think that this is a major step into adoption for crypto folks, as they can easily try out Nxt.

Nxt General Discussion / Contributors page on Nxt.org

« on: January 14, 2015, 04:20:38 pm »

Hello,

I want to publish a big contributors page on Nxt.org, imo this will give us a huge credibility bonus. (Do not confuse contributors with team!) At the top I will remember the reader, that this is a part of the contributors. Not a centralized team or a complete list. (bc we are decentralized)

For this I need information:

You can decide yourself whether you want your real name there, your nickname or both. Also you should give me your association with Nxt (your working area, areas of interest, skills, group, business etc.). Also it would be perfect, if you can also provide a picture of yourself. It will give even more credibility.

So who ever wants to appear there (the more the better! just imagine over 50 contributors!) give me your information via PM or this post. A name is a must-have. Association and photo is voluntary.

Thanks.

PS: If the majority decide, that this wouldn't be good for Nxt, then I will not do such a page.

Nxt Organization / Nxt.org Partner Page

« on: January 09, 2015, 12:28:12 pm »

Hello everybody,

at Nxt.org we have a partner page, where all Nxt partners can be listed. No link pages or fansites. Only serious businesses and partners which utilize Nxt.

http://nxt.org/businesses/our-partners/

If you want to be there, let us know.

If you have some useful site we can put it here: http://nxt.org/the-ecosystem/

Else I can create also a new sub page for smaller Nxt websites.

Nxt Community News and Announcements / NxtOrganization Report 2014

« on: December 29, 2014, 08:58:03 pm »

Hello NXTers,

I just want to give a quick overview of the things that the NxtOrganization achieved in 2014 since I took over.

You can check out our child board to get more information. As you see I started being the head of the NxtOrg in October 25th. Since then 9 weeks have passed and these are the results:

Revitalize the NxtOrg, with it Nxt has a semi-official group for conferences, journalists, partner and businesses.
Made the NxtOrg an open group, everyone can see our tasks and do them. Also everyone can join us and be a considerable force, which is pushing forward.
Re-do the Nxt.org website with many information.
Initiated a marketing campaign on CoinMarketCap for the first anniversary of Nxt, with custom images and its own information page. In this marketing campaign the community paid 50% and the NxtOrg the other 50%.
We created a conference packet, in which are the most important files for conferences. You can find it on the business section on Nxt.org
We entirely re-designed the Nxt subreddit.
Nxt finally (after 1yr) has its own Wikipedia article. It's also linked from various wiki entries. (Digital_currency, Digital_currency_exchanger, List of digital currencies, electronic money, cryptocurrency table, cryptocurrency, German article..)

There are still many things to do, but I think we did pretty well for 8 work-weeks (9th was a holiday week) and only three active members.

What is coming next?

Nxt DEMO on Nxt.org for new users to test out the Nxt client in our own testnet.
More marketing. (Especially MS marketing)
Maybe a forum theme in a corporate design. (If wanted -> VOTE)
Finish the 2014er tasks we couldn't finish due to lack of personal.

If you want to help us contributing to the Nxt ecosystem, then please get in contact with us!

Thank you so far!

Cheers,

NxtOrganization Head
Berzerk
