I like NEM project, but I just fear that with MasterNode and POI, coins will be more centralized to just a number of people. Not good for long-term development

There are literelly hundreds of masternodes and thousands of people staking their coins through these masternodes.. How is that too centralized?

Eventually the supernodes will be phased out and lower entry level to become a node will be allowed. It's just a temporary function to have super nodes while the network grows, from what I've read.

POI/POS is more centralized in fewer number of people while POW is centralized via location. Personally I'd rather a few hundred anonymous supernodes spread out all over the world than China having > 50% of POW mining pool control. They are planning to censor even VPN in 2018. Besides, POI/POS is to go against their own interest if they try to mess with the blockchain integrity as they are the ones with the most skin in the game.

Who cares! the banking system will collapse very soon. it wont collapse. it looks it like it will, but its actually going to evolve into a form of virtual currency. hey you know what. if BOA can go towards a virtual currency type US denomination, it could greatly increase the value of the so called "virtual dollar" since now they can create a 200 trillion dollar cap , and this is to compensate for population growth, etc. but still will be much more valuable than the current dollar , in relation to buying power.

Actually the opposite will happen. Every time the price suddenly increases some supernodes cash out and take profit. If the number of supernodes decreases too much they will lower the required balance to fund one. This increases distribution of XEM and thus increases decentralization. The more the price increases, the more early adopters will cash out increasing the spread of distribution. The higher the price goes, the harder it is to accumulate as well. I also think that PoS is superior to PoW because to participate in the 'shared-trust' of the network, you have to buy in from an existing stakeholder unlike in PoW where you only need to acquire mining hardware. It would be incredibly difficult to secure enough XEM to successfully the attack the network. In PoW, it would be very hard to detect a bad actor who is accumulating or researching advances in mining hardware to attack the network.

I already see articles that some areas are banning crypto mining due to power shortage. This would be a big issue if we want mass adoption.

Mining crypto uses ridiculous amounts of power which really is a total waste of energy to do such a simple task.

I approuve and that why Nem delagated harvesting allow more people to enjoy harvesting with less H.ware and matherial! i like the concept im more scared that the coin stay stock in 5th or 4th place because of the high fees

I also believe the environmental-friendly PoS of PoI is better, and dynamic changes of # of supernodes as price fluctuates make sense to me. It's also true that transaction fee (10 NEM?) will be too high if NEM reaches .5 or >1 someday.

I bought some XEM for some reason without understanding it. It was a good dumb moment. I still dont understand it. Is there an incentive to create a wallet or shall I leave it on an exchange? Its like 500 coins.

This one will be $100 coin when it wakes up. It's a sleeping giant.
That would require nearly a 1 trillion dollar market cap. I think you are little too enthusiastic.

Probably not in this lifetime. But XEM is very good coin with best blockchain technology.
