Ah Brothers!

I'm so vastly wish to see our ALFA Version of NEM, It will have to be Absolutely Fantastic System!

I believe in this!

IN NEM WE STRONG!

[Noitev]

Can someone tell me why to use this over nxt?

[zuqka]

also foraging should be called swaging

You forgot NEMphos - horny for NEM

And now we have title for Nem B-movie

Neminator Nymphos from outer space swaging Nemsters.

hehe...joke aside, keep it just NEM!

What the hell are you guys thinking?  The thought that anyone thinks NEMophile is a solid term is quite disturbing.  I know what ophile means, but people only think of one thing when it's at the end of a word.  Put your marketing hats on.

You have a point - the marketing appeal would be magnetic for a person like you.

Imagine the publicity generated by dirty- and suspicious-minded folks who spread around "NEMophile = Pedophile." And, to size up if you're the right kind of person for this promo, imagine yourself going to venue after venue and writing, "NEMophile means lover of NEM - the New Economy Movement! Why do you people have such dirty minds?" 

Would y'all take pleasure in correcting gossiper after gossiper, all the time using the opportunity to spread the good word about NEM? Would it be a joy rather than a chore to set people straight and promote NEM at the same time? Then "NEMophile" will be a huge publicity kernel. All it takes for the kernel to develop is enough NEMsters willing to politely correct the slew of dirty-gossip'ers.

But on the other hand...if you see "NEMophile = Pedophile" as FUD, and see correcting people as a drag and a headache, then the publicity isn't worth the hassle.

I submit that this one's up to the community. I just 'umbly spell out what I see as the opportunity and the hazard.

Please see

and check if this could be helpful for NEM.

And.... please note, I am not a crypto-expert.
Still waiting for a "NEM-Tutorial" for dummies. At the moment, things are to complicated for common people.

there is not really any shadow there (yet). all there is are two kinds of green.
but the "m" is a tricky one. I tried about 20 different options so far..

This is your best one I think. I like the symmetry. Could you attempt a symbol (or a favicon) only? something that can be used in coinmarketcap for example ?

Cool logo. Like it very much!

I think we should not debate the various variations of nem and just use Nem for everything.

For example -

I nemed up to nem my nems on this neming.  Nemmed into Nemcointalk to nem if i nemmed any new nemages. 

If you nem nem with nem then who the nem are nem ?  Nem it ?

yes, that is a nice pic; like a 3D pic, where similar green arcs are set to different positions.
Due to that 3D issue there is not needed any "darker" areas ...

There is tho a risk that the middle letter is recognized as "C" instead of "E".

After NEM's launch, the initial stakeholders only have two options, hold or dump. We can give them one other option, spend.

Crowd-funding sites are very popular right now. If we use Kickstarter as an example, it's global rank is 822 and it's rank in the US is 387. Kickstarter has several limitations.

-Only project creators from certain countries are permitted.
-Charity and awareness campaigns are prohibited.
-Projects must fit within one of 13 categories.
-High fees, they take a 5% cut of the pledged funds plus Amazon Payments get 3-5%.
-You are only backing projects, the terms and conditions do not allow investment returns (no movie distribution rights or dividends).

We could create our own crowd-funding site based on NEM, without these limitations. Project creators from all countries will be welcome and they will have the option of offering dividends. The fees will be lower.
 
Our NEM crowd-funding platform could be the first "company" on the Asset Exchange. For now let's call this company "NEMfunder". The fee will support the operating costs (administration, marketing, hosting, etc) the remaining profit will be distributed to NEMfunder shareholders.

Instead of just saving or selling their NEM, the stakeholders will now be able to buy shares of NEMfunder. If your plan is to hold NEM, a better option might be to buy some NEMfunder shares. Owning NEMfunder shares denominated in NEM will give you leverage. In the future, if the value of NEM increases threefold and the NEMfunder share price doubles the value of your NEM holdings would multiply by 6 times.

If we issue 10,000,000 shares, it may look something like this:

NEMfunder total shares= 10,000,000
70% internal shares= 7,000,000 (80% for employee salaries and 20% expansion fund)
30% external shares= 3,000,000 for public offering issued on the NEM Asset Exchange.
 
Employees of NEMfunder will receive internal shares. We will be needing developers, marketers and a stay-at-home CEO. Anyone on the NEM dev team is invited. To add to the credibility and momentum of this IPO, anyone in the NEM core team is invited.

To get this going I registered www.NEMfunder.com and www.NEMstarter.com (also NXTfunder.com, in case our neighbor NXT likes it).

What is the next step to bring NEMfunder into existence?

Good idea, but we already have fund.nemcoin.com.

NEMstarter has a good ring to it, if nothing else it could always forward to fund.nemcoin.com
A note: Currently fund.nemcoin.com is just a placeholder site. We still need a developer to create a REAL crowdfunding site that will accept currency and have the required security features, etc. Once someone creates a better site, it will take the subdomain of fund.nemcoin.com, and the current site will cease to exist.
It's my understanding that there are no developers currently working on a crowdfunding type site for NEM, so the position is still open!

Sounds great...
I like the sound of Nemstarter.com.

If NEMstarter sounds better, we can go with that.

What I am proposing is a virtual company listed on our Asset Exchange. Being a virtual company, NEMfunder will have less restrictions than the other funding-type businesses. The operation can be more flexible.

NEMfunder will be a global funding platform for any project, it's currency is based entirely on NEM (think Kickstarter + SharkTank + NEM - fiat). Entrepreneurs, small businesses, anyone can use our funding platform to raise NEM for their project. They also have the option to offer equity or financial returns in NEM.

To get NEM established as a currency, we must take fiat out of the equation. We should think of new ideas and businesses solely in terms of NEM. Let the exchanges and gateways handle the fiat<-->NEM conversions.

[randombit]

We could call us  NEMsta  (sounds like Nem STar  )   and rookies might called NEMstarter,

the smales unit of NEM  should be called  NEMbit its easy ands sounds perfect and everybody knows whats meant with.

1 NEM   and 0,1 NEM will be  1000000 Nembits or more , iam not sure how many dezimalnumbers NEM will have.

When is the Alpha?

I'm interested in having a look at the alpha too. I suppose there is not much point releasing it until there are no tests failing.

I thought of something in this way:

Can someone tell me why to use this over nxt?

Yes.

- Way better distribution, fair IPO, same amount of nem for everyone of the 3000 stakeholders.
- Doesn't lead to mere hoarding of coins, through Proof of Importance
- Amazing & strong community (no envy)
