Hi NEM community!

A week ago I found out that NEM tokens were on sale so I bought 2.9 @ 25K NXT and my wife 0.5 (around 80K NXT total), then found out that there is a limit of 2.0, so I already am in breach. I do not have any stakes because I was too bold and naive when requesting them.

In the light of recent events, I wanted to ask you, whether there is a chance that limit of 2.0 NEM tokens per person (actually NXT account) can be lifted?
I ask this just to enquire if it is ok to pursue my initial intentions (see my post history).

If the limit of 2.0 tokens is not lifted, I will sell the excess.

I think You and Your wife for both can buy 4 stakes-so fell free to buy a little more
2 stakes per NXT account. You and your wife can have at least 2 NXT account or more

Just send the 1.4 stake to another NXT account.

Exactly, the 2 token limit is to make it difficult for whales to cashout. If people like you circumvent that a bit, it's not that big of a deal.

Technically him and his wife should have 1 NEMstake each, however having a bit more is no big deal.

perhaps have main thread moderated and another not moderated like nfd

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=603932.0

"un moderated criticism thread"

If the thread keeps going like this, I think it would be a good idea.

More sane people than you think, price on asset exchange is holding well.

Need a UF replacement though to communicate properly.

Just read a coindesk article about blockchain selling prepaid cards with BTC on them. We could do the same thing with NEM, and it should really help with new users. We could make it as simple and as similiar as redeeming a giftcard. Doesn't seem too difficult to implement. Either make it a scratch-off, or maybe even make it reloadable like a debit card.
Edit: I think scratch-off type would be best to start, the debit card type wouldn't be too useful until brick-and-mortar stores accept it.

It seems like if we want mass adoption, we should use devices such as credit cards that are familiar to most people.

This sounds like a good idea. We could work this in tandem with my ATM project.

I am going to be building a prototype Nem ATM very soon. Software will come later.

Is this the one you are talking about?

This sums up a bit more about what I meant.

I mean more like http://redeem.bitcoin.com/
Where we create a similar site, but just for NEM.
People just throw away the "gift cards" after they redeem the NEM and put it in their online or app wallet.

Essentially:
1st create these gift cards
2nd create "debit cards that are reloadable, and can be accepted by merchants.
3rd step would be next-gen tech, such as a phone/watch/ring

I like the blackcard route (but you have to use a windows pc to connect to it? We need something cross-platform).
I will look more into it, it is something I saw awhile ago, and forgot to follow up on.
btw, I'm rethinking steps 2 and 3, those should be done at the same time most likely.

Hi Guys, I would like to share with you some of my thoughts about NEM's future value. If you look into the amazing short history of Bitcoin "just 3 years!" You would find that whenever a new service or product been offered for Bitcoin the higher Bitcoin price advanced. One of the main factors that effluences the value of any Crypto currency is what you can use it for.

Bitcoin has only one use/value which is basically to be traded and exchanged to other currencies/products/goods, where other crypto currencies have other features and usages that are very specific to its algorithms, such as ASIC mining resistance and transaction Mixing. If you look into each single crypto currency that made it to the market during the past year you will find that each of which has its own unique feature that attracts specific domain of users demand. On the other hand crypto currencies that failed, basically failed cause it couldn't manager to offer any new in terms of usage/features.

NEM is one of the very first crypto currency that managed to implement multiple features that cover all features offered in all other crypto currencies, plus much more. The proof of importance forging/mining feature on its own is a huge advantage over all other cryptos including NXT. Market place, Asset exchange, transaction mixing, social network, and way much more. NEM is one of the first attempts toward an internet evolution of an encrypted secure decentralized social network.

As long as NEM's usage and features are going to constantly continue evolving and expanding, I would have no doubt that NEM's market capital will one day hit a higher value than Bitcoin's market capital. The spirit, effort, collaboration, evolution, innovation, ease, team, community, concept, creativity and hopes behind NEM is what makes me feel that NEM tends to be the one Crypto currency that will dominate the market in the near future.

These thoughts were the main points that helped me in making a critical decision of selling all my alt coins in addition to all my bitcoins to invest in NEMstakes.

Thank you devs, Let us go on!

NEM will be better!
