I'm not against NXT or anything and I think it is a good idea, but this statement is misleading "NXT is a threat for many because of integrated exchange, colored coins, assets, etc..."
These features don't exist yet. You don't know if they will ever come to fruition or not. Investing in Nxt is a gamble on whether A. Those features will ever be implemented at all and B. If another crypto doesn't beat Nxt to them (which is likely on at least some of the features) and capture the market share before Nxt can take off.
Also, Nxt is not without competition. Mastercoins got a head start on NXT and I venture to guess they will have some of these features before NXT will.. they have huge bounties for them... 300 BTC for a distributed exchange for instance. Mastercoins aside... there is also eMunie, Protoshares, and Bitshares all doing similar things with similar features.
To claim victory for Nxt right now is a little premature IMO. I'm going to wait and see how the gen2 ALT wars plays out a little bit before picking my horse. At this point all of them are a quite a gamble. A lot of promises could easily turn out to be broken promises.

That aside, I like the idea of Nxt and think it could be a great thing. However, it isn't that great as it exists today.
