But he began abusing ECA in ECA forum because of vexation n FOMO (Read the ECA forum about his abusing ECA for no reason at all) and started shilling about Nexus. So I read about nexus because I know he is a loser and will move on after losing money in nexus also...but eventually I found nexus is 2014 made ...5 min block time and super slow transaction as of now...trying to ride fake hype...It made me laugh so hard on Mr. dickhead who left ECA in loss. And I m 100% sure Nexus is a scam.

(1) Please debate with correct facts. The trailing 24h overall block time was 49 seconds yesterday, not 5 minutes:

https://nxsorbitalscan.com/block-channels

I'm not even sure where you got 5 minutes from.

There's a wealth of actual, correct information out there about Nexus, and I suggest anyone reading this thread avail themselves of it, starting with the official website: nexusearth.com.

(2) How about both of you take a vacation from this ridiculous back and forth of trying to pump and deflate without adding any value to the discussion? As Groestl correctly noted, most of the action on Nexus is in the Slack channel, not the bitcointalk thread. And this is certainly not the place to debate the merits of ECA, whatever that is.

(1) You are an idiot! Read the first page. Block times are written on the first page.

Quote:
Block Time
300 seconds for Hashing channel
300 seconds for Prime mining channel
60 seconds for nPOH

Spoiler: 300 seconds is 5 minutes.

(2) How about you respond to my points. The NexusEarth slack is useless, there only non-technical people. As soon as they hear constructive criticism, they start to cry out loud and flame. All they do is price talks.

So find somebody technical and make that person respond to what I wrote about the 3DC being a scam, it's useless garbage, with the only goal to fool idiots. Check earlier posts that nobody responded to, for details.

Oh my goodness, I get the idiot treatment in red?. I'm so flattered!

First, that may be what's in the first page, but it's not the block times in practice right now - they're coming in at 150 seconds (approximately) for hashing and prime, and a bit slower than 60 seconds for nPoS. (nxsorbitalscan is down right now so I can't get the exact value).

Second: It's amusing to be called an idiot by someone who doesn't seem able to calculate the expected block time when you have three different channels interleaved, any of which can produce a block. You said it yourself: By the design, every 300 seconds there's a block on hashing, every 300 seconds there's a block on prime, and every 60 seconds, there's a block on nPoS. That's 288 blocks/day on each of prime and hashing, and 1440 blocks on nPOS, meaning a block about every 42.8 seconds on average. (1/(1/300 + 1/300 + 1/60)).

(Again, that's by what's written on the first post, which is slightly incorrect vs the actual block times right now.)

I have no opinions about 3DC. I haven't read the proposal in enough detail to have an opinion. I treat everything in cryptocurrency as vaporware until proven otherwise. That includes 3DC, it includes Bitcoin's magical unicorn lightning network, and it includes the majority of posts on bitcointalk. I like Nexus whether or not 3DC pans out -- I put more stake in Jim Cantrell's large vested interest in the success of his software-defined satellite effort than I do in any announced features.

Thanks for the info on the block time. It's frustrating with those idiots here, that just don't want to have a constructive talk, but rather claim bullshit like one person making multiple accounts and such. Such retards.

What you did is sum up the blocks created by each channel. That's not how it works.
The time between blocks isn't a constant. It can be 30 seconds, 10 min, 30 mins or whatever because block minting is based on the result of a hashing function, what's random.

It would be nice to see the Average, Variance and Deviation for the blocktime.

When looking at the charts over at https://bitinfocharts.com and doing what you did and use 84 blocks per hour than, that's still nothing compared to Ethereums 246 blocks an hour, but a lot more than BTC has, and a lot more than BCH has. But that's just one part.

I would love to see the average, variance and deviation for NXS.

What do you mean with the software-defined satellite?

Yes - my calculation above is a rough approximation assuming uniform block emission, but it's pretty close to the expected value of the average block time. But more importantly, it's directly comparable to bitcoin's "10 minute" block time (which is also an expected value, with a horrible variance, as we all know).

For true average, variance, and deviation, perhaps Psipherious would be willing to add the latter two? nxsorbitalscan already tracks average (which is where the 49 second time comes from). It's analytically calculable, of course: PoW-based blockchains can be viewed as a Poisson process. This is an over-simplification because it ignores difficulty changes, but it's pretty close. Picking the empirical mean of 49 seconds, that means that the variance is also 49 seconds, so the standard deviation is about 7 seconds.

Software-defined satellite platform: Vector is hoping to launch a bunch of micro-satellites that can host multiple client programs, updated dynamically, running in little VMs on the actual sat -- kind of the Amazon EC2 of satellites: http://www.galacticsky.net/

The exact way that Nexus would play into it is vague, but I suspect this is the reason for the Vector/Nexus partnership (other than the obvious blood relationship - Cantrell Sr. has a wide libertarian streak and seems supportive of the cryptocurrency ecosystem on that front as well).
