I've read a lot of white papers before and none were that in depth, and none were that revolutionary since Bitcoin.
This thing explains 3 new technologies to cryptocurrencies. PoI, P2P time synchronization among nodes, and Eigentrust++ among nodes.
And don't forget new twists on old tech like now having blockchain based notifications for multisig, or a new kind of localized spam protection; both being firsts in crypto.

Wow this white paper is pretty technical. In all my research NEM is the most interesting. I mean POI + talented dev team. It seems like though your community is sort of dead idk. Great paper and I look forward to the new economy's future.

That because it mostly lives on telegram. The majority has abandoned the toxic pit that is btt.

so POS encourages hoarding, and those who have the most get the most.
to get around this NEM powers to be have created a equation so network activity adjusts the amount a user can earn (awards an importance score) so its not just a simple larger hoarder with the biggest holding wins.
yes? no?

I don't know, but I'm surprised he didn't draw butterflies and hearts on the damn thing. Satoshi's original white paper was simple, elegant, and the beauty lie in the information and proposed solution. This arts-and-crafts project borders between advertising mailer and actual mathematics.

I don't see anything new in the NEM coins, it's just a copy altcoins, just ignore it.

the logic of posting this in the very thread that proves your post invalid is astounding.. astoundingly bad! yet ironically you responded to this rather then a genuine question i posed

What's to stop someone from simply owning many NEM addresses and passing coins around within those addresses to fake importance? If that's possible, what's stopping someone from automating this process?

yes thats how it is supposed to work.. so effectively someone who is active in the network that does transactions on a regular basis ends up with a higher importance, and thus reward, than someone who simply hoards their coins. its not just rewards that gets better distributed either. a users importance is the users level of control over the network, so those who use the network the most will inherently have a higher level of control the network than someone with an equal amount of coins that doesnt ever transact. So is it fair to say that not all holders are created equal then? In fact some holders are more important then others and should be given preferential treatment?

Wait... "when everyone got their coins in the genesis"... is NEM a premine?

So coins were sold prior to launch. I see. I think we both know that a coin that had pre-sales can never be one of the final and long term cryptos of the world, but I do wish you the best of luck with your NEM, and may you successfully convince other users to buy in. It's obvious a lot of work went into it, despite the crippling economic flaws it incorporates. Long live NEM.

Can you please explain vested vs unvested concept? Thanks
Whenever an account receives XEM, the new XEM are added to the account’s unvested balance. When an account sends XEM, XEMs are taken from both the vested and the unvested balance, to retain the vested to unvested ratio. Additionally, every 1440 blocks, 1/10 of the unvested balance is moved to the vested part. - SEC 2.1
I read that page and didnt understand those terms hence the question

Thanks kodtycoon. Always answering our POS queries.. That's a big paper.. lot of work.. took a while to skim it, let alone digest it. A feat like that always deserves .. congratulations! Here is the EigenTrust++ pdf , which I thought explained a few bits clearer. http://www.cc.gatech.edu/~lingliu/papers/2012/XinxinFan-EigenTrust++.pdf1) So with PoI a lower stake can have more importance, how does this affect the 51% attack ? How much stake and importance can you 'theoretically' get away with to have 51% power ? 2) If all the participants in the PoI scheme behaved similarly, this would mean a straight POS system ? 3) NEM's architecture vs NEUCoin's vs NXT ? (These seem the big POS boys) . I was just wondering whether we will ever get a 'definitive' POS algo that works better than all the rest.. ?

User: WIN Exchange: LOSE WIN for Proof of importance. one piece anecdotal evidence is next to ZERO proof against the exploit possible by exchanges. just saying one particular exchange at this point in time isn't fully exploiting its potential position doesn't say at all that exchanges can't exploit this, and sooner or later they will. (and even in this case pol has any outstanding level of importance considering its its users coins its using to obtain such a level.)
