Please do try to activate people and try to motivate them on engaging in this community but please DO NOT try to do this by bending or changing the initial deal/rules and by forcing them to post anything not worth posting on a forum just for the sake of it.

I have to agree that no one should be scrapped. Yes there will be a few fake accounts but it would be much more sinister if an individual or two were wrongfully cut out. My close friend who has been buying and mining BitCoin for the past eight months thinks there is no value in the alt coins and feels bitcoin will simply absorb any valid competitive attributes, he had NO account on bitcointalk and I convinced him to get on here and help fund this movement. When NEM launches it will probably be worth less or close to what we put in, so someone with 10BTC could buy 100 stakes in seconds after it hits the exchange. The real focus should be getting the word out and not wasting time on this.

excellent point made by Shawn. We should instead do more in promoting nem

A point that concerns me more is, how are we going to be as a product? What value will be giving to potential users to choose NEM instead of come other coin. This would be the single most important factor in NEMS success.
- Can we provide price stability for merchants to accept it
- Would the wallet be user friendly and simple to use for an average person like me
- Will the wallet be secure from hacking, this could be a selling point ( most secure wallet)
- Energy efficient vs bitcoin is good but average users unfortunately would not care as much.
- Emunie type wallet where people can have unique wallet names(DNS type) instead of numbers would be good.
- Can the wallet be used in cellphone like M-pesa ( this could be important )
- Wallet containing some token coins would be nice enticement for new users
even with all these features we would be just a decent coin, NEM needs a killer app to truly become big.
What can we provide that the average user wants that no other crypto or payment system does right now?

Worked up my first NEM logo, obviously my graphic skills are top notch and this was many hours of thought, labor and sweat. You have my permission to stamp it official.  WTF? +1 glad to see that the first comment wasn't "I love these, I love that" |

Basicly we need a user friendly wallet. As I saw the first time NXT-client i was shocked about the colors and frames and thought I was back in 1989 playing some amiga-games ! Furthermore NXT client doesn't run stable at all. We would be silhouetted against NXT for example with a stable and fluently running client. So these should be the primary aims of NEM. |

People plz don't go over board. I know things are really active in here and theres a lot going on but don't quit your jobs !
Let's say every stakeholder will get 1 Mio NEM (it'll probl. be more but we don't have an exact number jet)
Say NEM were to hit 1 Cent really soon (which is somewhat optimistic imho) that would mean every stakeholder would own 10k USD. That's not enough to live ! At least not for long.
well, how about that kid having 10 stakes? What will he think, when counting the money and thinking his living |

I think there is a worm or part of an octopus... very suitable for a logo of ... marine restaurant or research center. Or Sleezy Sam's Shop. |

i think all stake holders in group 3 of the statistics spread sheet should be scrapped.. no one that has just heard of nxt/nem/btc would simply open an acc just to apply for that and never use it again.. and like it says it some acc's show activity.. AFTER the stats are done and ppl realise they are in the bottom group they try and build up usage to get out of it to try and protect their multiple shares! i think community should vote on this! if you remove these inactive acc's which contribute nothing to the community and will most likely be merged with other multiple sock puppet acc's every one else will get a larger stake but still evenly distributed and you wont end up with 10/15 guys with 40/50 shares or more.. those acc's should be removed!
That is complete BS. I made an account just to be part of this. I was one of the first 2000 owners of NXT, liked the idea but was more fond of this more egalitarian approach. I never felt the urge to post on this forum because I think that you should only post something if you have something interesting to add. What you're saying is that if someone has posted posts like 'to da moon!' or 'how much you think crapcoin X will be worth in 2015' in the past has more rights than someone who doesn't post crap like that? Maybe I will contribute somewhere along the way, maybe on this forum, maybe somewhere else. You don't know. Maybe we should scrap all the accounts who actively try to slim down the total amount of accounts just to end up with a bigger share of the cake themselves, like you're doing right now. Please do try to activate people and try to motivate them on engaging in this community but please DO NOT try to do this by bending or changing the initial deal/rules and by forcing them to post anything not worth posting on a forum just for the sake of it. I have to agree that no one should be scrapped. Yes there will be a few fake accounts but it would be much more sinister if an individual or two were wrongfully cut out. My close friend who has been buying and mining BitCoin for the past eight months thinks there is no value in the alt coins and feels bitcoin will simply absorb any valid competitive attributes, he had NO account on bitcointalk and I convinced him to get on here and help fund this movement. When NEM launches it will probably be worth less or close to what we put in, so someone with 10BTC could buy 100 stakes in seconds after it hits the exchange. The real focus should be getting the word out and not wasting time on this. But is Bitcoin sustainable long term? Bitcoin depends on a small network of mining nodes who support their operations by generating a fixed profit of 3600 bitcoins per day. The available daily operating budget to keep Bitcoin from freezing up is thus $3.6M or less (at $1K/BTC or under) to generate the current 25 million GHash/s needed daily. A representative miner “pickaxe” is a Butterfly Labs Monarch costing $2000 and using 350W of power to produce 600 GHash/sec. Thus the current Bitcoin mining network has sunk unit infrastructure costs of at least $83 million and (at $0.10/KwH) ongoing electricity costs of at least $35,000 per day.
Both costs are rising faster and faster. Exponential growth of Bitcoin’s hashrate (see blockchain.info/charts/hashrate) means mining rigs and energy use will skyrocket out of control, sooner rather than later. Bitcoin, and clones like Doge, are thus by their very nature destined to fail.
NXT is the sustainable solution to this problem. By using cooperative transparent forging, not competitive gigahash mining, NXT does not have an exponential forcing function at its core that drives its costs and energy consumption ever higher. A NXT blockchain support network of 1000 Odroid U3 nodes has a one-time unit infrastructure cost of only $60 thousand and uses only $48 per day in electricity – forever.

You have my permission to stamp it official. https://i.imgur.com/o4wzMdO.gif?1hey. I like that image you created, especially the colours you choose. Anyway is it possible to change this kind of animal to something people outside crypto love? I mean it's just an idea however we can attract with pics like that many young people. E.g. dolphins or white colored lions in front of a blue afterimage? Anyway love your work and I just made some suggestions to get NEM more popular. |

I'm just tired of logos that twisting alphabets together, no non-NEMer will know what they mean. |

If I'd invested to this, I'll be worried  Maybe it is because of those sockpuppets, who want to play around, uphold each others. Look at these fellows But I'm NOT worried. I am free. And strong /_  _\ ! / \ _! !_ |
