Hi tk808,
first of all I want to thank you for your try to create new cryptocurrency/blockchain platform based on the right principles. Actually I am one of the original stakeholders of NEM and 4 years ago the right principles behind the NEM was also the reason I participated.
I only hope that you will not have same problem like Utopianfuture had (he owned lots of sockpuppets accounts). Becuase that was really disappointment for me in past. I really hope that you are different and the right leader.
So below is my opinions/questions to you:
1. I will be really happy if you can show us your real identity. I think in these days it is nice to know what person is leading the project.
I also think that identity of whole team should be public. Or what is the reason to hide your real identity (no offense)?
2. I think that better will be total supply of 1 000 000 000 XEV. Voted 125 000 000 XEV is much better then original 1 000 000 but I still think that for widespread use the higher number will be better. That is my opinion and I think 1 billion is the right number.
3. I pretty like that distribution will be only here on bitcointalk. I know what is your reason to do it and I totally agree. I think here we can build much stronger community and much advanced community. Maybe it is old fashioned today but I like it.
4. I think that the main problem is to find experienced blockchain developer to work full-time in Nevra project. Do you have any right now? From whitepaper I understant that there is not any blockchain developer in Nevra team right now.
5. What is the real purpose and goal of Nevra blockchain? To be blockchain platform for businesses/individuals like NEM? Or only just currency? From my point of view more important in future will be blockchain platform like NEM, Ardor, Ethereum and not just crypto currency (like Dash, Litecoin, ...).
6. If Nevra will be fork of NEM blockchain which version of NEM? The new unreleased version of NEM 2.0 Catapult? Will be the new version opensourced?
Because I think that fork the actual ("old") version of NEM is not good idea. But I do not know if the new version will be opensourced (I am not sure).
Also I am not sure if to fork NEM is the best idea. If Nevra just fork NEM it always be just the fork of NEM. The initial idea of NEM was same - just fork NXT. But then team decided to code new blockchain from scratch. And you can see that it was the best decision they can made.
On the other hand I know that to code completly new blockchain from scratch is really hard task and of course Nevra will not be able to launch mainnet on Q3/2018. Maybe Q3/2019

.
So for now this is really interesting idea but of course it lacks technical details. And technical details is also really important. So I will be happy to read some opinions from team developers (in future) about their idea of building blockchain from scratch or to just fork NEM.
