Only way to make a coin successful is to build an ecosystem around it. No matter how advanced the technology behind the coin is, if you can't use it, it might as well be useless.
What can you use coins for? To buy things or services.
Think of the market you are after. Ultimate goal is for regular people to use it, but crypto is so advanced that most people are not going to use it at all first. But you can start with people that are familiar with crypto already. The biggest problem is that these people have thousands of other coins to play with and gamble with, so why would they choose this coin? If you can buy things with this coin that you cannot as easily buy with others, then you have big advantage.
But why kind of things do crypto people want to buy? That's the first step in figuring out the market. Find out what people really want to buy and make it really easy to purchase it with this coin.
Take Bitcoin, for the biggest time, the ecosystem of BTC was centered around mining. People could buy mining equipment in the form of BTC and use that to mine more BTC. It was a self-sustaining cycle.
Now take Monero, and there is currently a game called Crypto Kingdom, which uses XMR as its currency and the only way to play the game is to buy things in the video game using XMR. This is creating an ecosystem in which to use the currency. Whether it succeeds or not, who knows, but it attempted to create a market where a "useless" currency could actually be used, because without any real use for a coin, it really is useless. (same is true for BTC)
Now why would people use NODE? Without something special, it is just another among thousands of coins. But if NodePay is really as it says, and you could actually get it to work and if you start building out the infrastructure of a real market, where you set up environments where real goods and services (e.g. ASIC = physical, Video Game = services) can be bought easily using Fiat. Part of the reason why people don't like getting paid in crypto is not that they hate crypto, but because it is extremely volatile. It can be +20% one day but -45% the next. With a reliable way of getting paid via NodePay, stores would be more likely to use NODE infrastructure.
Of course this means that at first NodeCoin would not be as popular since people using NODE would be using the Fiat option, but as adoption grows from the use of NodePay, Nodecoin would gain traction since it uses the same platform.
In short, getting the technical parts done (i.e. coding, legal issues via NodeBank, etc) is important, and marketing is also important, but creating a viable ecosystem by creating a market inside NODE is really important. So the question is why type of market will be most effective? Selling physical items, or some kind of service such as web services, video game, etc.

block 4595 here. If it gets stuck just close and reopen. I ran the Linux version on a vps and no problem. The problem is with windows 8.1 where once it verifies the blocks it doesn't go beyond the "Loading..." screen. I tried restarting it and erasing nxtlt.db and nxtltTx.db along with replacing it with the one provided but it will still not load the new blocks.

I run into the same problem, which got solved by leaving the client on for a long time after deleting those files (with the "Loading..." screen visible)
