I am completely OK with this entire thing. Great price and will put us even more on the map, both with traders, miners and merchants and users. Full circle people. Full circle. Cheesy

I think this is the best use of a premine I have ever seen and just shows if a premine is used right it can contribute a lot. I will contribute towards this as I believe it can only be a good thing!

What other development needs to be done in order for the team and community to focus more time on merchants?

Well of course development is never done and we are working on many projects, so that wont change. But I think we can all agree that an iOS wallet is necessary for real use in the Netherlands. From our own experience and we've had a lot of talks with businesses in Amsterdam, the big question is always: Alright how can my customers pay?

It looks like a iOS wallet must be difficult to make as I tried seeing if other coins have one and they don't, would it not be better for another coin to make one and we just copy it because they will just copy our iOS wallet and we spent the money paying for it.

We've investigated all possible options for the last weeks and breadwallet is the most secure and userfriendly wallet, however there is no other scrypt coin that uses it, so we have to make it ourselves. With that in mind we've contacted more than 30 iOS developers and received offers from 4000 up to 12000 euro. Then we got in touch with an iOS dev from the Netherlands who is very interested in our project and crypto in general and he is willing to build this for 3000 euro.

The iOS wallet for NLG will also be branded for us so any coin copying the iOS wallet would have a lot of work to do. Also if we had to copy another coins iOS wallet it would still cost quite a bit.
Potentially being the 1st altcoin to have a standalone iOS wallet we will make crypto history even for scrypt and will get the coin much deserved attention.

We also have 1 merchant that will accept us straight away for having a iOS wallet and this is a merchant you really want in the Netherlands. So there is a lot at stake and I personally believe will have a positive effect on the price and we can always boast about having the first scrypt iOS wallet.

With the above being said the most important thing for us is to speed up merchant adoption especially going into the last 1/4 of this year. A iOS wallet will give us a full suite of tools to move forward with NLG.
