Nice !

First comments are rather dissapointing though:

[–]matthewnealwright:
How is this different than Dogecoin?

[–]ryanlajoie:

How is this different from any altcoin ever created?

I guess people find it easier to just ask dumb questions than actually take a look at something.

What do you guys think of the spike Auroracoin has had. I knew I should have mined it when it came out.

It's big because of the potential promotion, by giving half of all coins to everyone in Iceland. We have to think of something that can make Nem this big so early on. The 3,000 stakeholders helps and puts us at a better position than most coins, but we need something even bigger. Something that will make the cryptomedia talk about us the same they're doing with Auroracoin.

I agree, but Im not sure if that "strong idea" should be known in public threat, I just think that someone would use it first.
I dont mind If core developers will have some secret weapon.
They can tell community about it when its ready, so we can decide if we want to use it without giving time to competition.

We are busy writing code. At some point we will make a test system public, I think, but Jaguar will decide that. I think Jaguar will try to give weekly updates on development.

Once code is more stable I think the plan is to put it in our public github repository.

Does it mean that NEM will start with testnet (fake coins) before the official NEM release.
If so I think this is a better approach to start with testnet so the community  can
test the software and the network performance and some bugs and flaws could be
removed before the official launch.

We could expect that at launch the network will be heavily attacked by DDOS
as in the latest few months it happened to to other alt coins as well
 (NXT , eMunie ) forums, websites, network were attacked around important date
announcements.

Guys we should go support NEM in reddit , if we wont who will. not saying we should overhype it but at least give it an honest assessment.

i am everywhere, i;ve been here since day one, i was in  the stakeholders list from quite soon.
I use my primary account for those activities and my sock for the less serious discussions, like this one.

I am already disgusted by the way some members of this forum attacked others just for disagreeing with them.
They join a coin that is given to them for free, and then they hurry up to kick out one guy and take his stake.
I felt proud when you stepped up and said no to that. Because, honestly, "no envy" and these egopaths don't mix well.

why do u worry about others doings n' hurries, you don't have to read all

why do u use "no envy" to stop "egopaths"? It is so that envy is only in your mind. The egopaths just want to be egalitarian.  THAT is the mix.

Are egalitarian preferences based on envy?

Interesting article. "Overall, the four studies indicate that individual differences in envy are only weak predictors of preferences for egalitarian income distributions."

I wonder how many lurkers are here in this thread  . Guys this is just a test, say hi, you dont have to say anything just hi. I am really curious how many people are following this thread. This could be a good indicator of interest in NEM   dont be shy we are all freindly ( most of us  )

That is weird, it should resemble like this forum (btt). Its the same platform. But if anyone else is having this same problem, you can report here on btt or here http://forum.nemcoin.com/index.php?board=8.0.

Yep, hope we can get more topics there soon. Plus side is that the new site is pretty easy to use with mobile (and should work with all phones correctly). I Recommend to register now and take your nickname before its taken

I'm reading updates to this thread multiple times a day, I just don't have anything to contribute yet. I'm sure I'm not the only one in this position

[j23a]

I promoted Nem in four different threads the last hour or so. Hopefully more people will do that near launch. We need most of the stakeholders to do so. It would be awesome.

Again, I always say Nem coin, so that if they Google it they can find this thread.

Also, today I was in a forum that has nothing to do with coins, and one of the avatar was of Dogecoin. I've seen it in different places.

Something that will make the cryptomedia talk about us the same they're doing with Auroracoin.

Me too, but my wallet would not sync so I gave up . I think its a bubble just like the earlier vertcoin spike. What do you think people of Iceland would do with the coins they receive, they cant spend it on any goods. Most people will not even use it thinking its a gimmick and those who do will sell it for Bitcoin to actually buy stuff.

I would not buy it now, price is way too high ( But what do I know). I guess we can declare NEM the crypto currency of Zimbabwe   and hope Robert Mugabe does not execute poor UP and dev team  

I hadn't heard of Auroracoin until I saw it listed near the top of coinmarketcap last night with a ? next to it.  At that time is was at around $8, which at the time I thought was overpriced, but now it's almost $20.  

It's even on BBC http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-26083733

With that kind of coverage, it's bound to get a lot of interest.  We need something similar for NEM to raise awareness, something that would grab the headlines.

We could help Ukraine because of the protests by giving people NEM or something.

I like the sound of that, as Ukraine is quite a hot topic in the news now, and their economy is in trouble.  The IMF, ECB vultures are in the process of trying to "rescue" their economy with perpetual debt.  Then when they can't afford to pay it back, the EU etc will dictate how the country will be run, and plunder their resources, but I digress.  Yes, Ukraine is a good potential candidate.

I was thinking something similar, that they won't know what to do with it. Though there are going to probably be thousands who will give it a try.

But I'm talking in terms of promotion, something that can get Nem noticed just as much.

Also, we need as many merchants as possible whom will accept NEM as a currency, so that people have something to do with it once they've got their hands on it.  It's going to be hard to have mainstream acceptance, unless the currency has multiple uses.
