Someone explain the crowdsale... http://altnemo.com/How does buying $90 an ounce silver when the price is only $20 help anybody ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) Why not buy 2 ounces of silver and then with the left over $50 buy some NEMstake or use the money to buy NEM when it launches ... We are selling on the NXT AE for 2500 NXT atm. 2500*0.026600 = $66.5 (not $90). This is also proof, bullion quality from the Perth Mint, not junk silver sold in bulk. This includes: - "special privileges" in AltNemo. This is likely to be worth much, much more than the coin costs
- international, insured shipping (which costs more than the base metal
- 100 NEM cold wallet
- coin packaging
See http://altnemo.com/ for all the various payment options. If you look at how much silver bitcoins are selling for, I have seen 1 oz of silver from 2BTC - 15 BTC for one coin. These were not even minted by a famous mint like the Perth Mint, either. So I think the coins can easily be worth 10-30x what you pay now, once you consider everything. If you buy 6, you get 1 free, too. Gold is selling for 47500 NXT atm, which is 47500*0.026600 = $1263, which is under spot price. Gold coins come with significantly more "special privileges" in AltNemo, as well, making this easily the best deal in crypto if you have $1200 sitting around (again, this price includes shipping). Anyone on the original stakeholder list who buys a gold coin will get a free silver coin, too ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Why is nemgold selling for such a considerable discount compared to nemsilver? How are you guys making any profit for the crowd funding selling below spot? And how come these have not been eaten up already? Surely this is a no brainer or am I missing something here? So, since it is surely a no brainer, get all your friends and relatives to buy the gold. You don't need to think. Yes, you are in fact missing something here - that you are not buying any of the gold coins. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) It was a question not a statement. I'm still bewildered by the lack of demand and will continue to ponder my decision. Maybe its the risk of resale or everyones just completely broke? There can be a few factors. Maybe we are not promoting it enough or nobody appreciates the value of the true meaning of limited edition. Or that they are more interested in keeping the cryptos rather than buying the silvers for whatever reason. Another reason is they may be more interested in making and churning profits out of whatever cryptos they have. Maybe some people cannot be bothered with changing fiat to cryptos even if they are interested. There are lots of reasons. But we hope you will support the cause. Really, it is a no brainer if you know its value. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

The SuperNetwork will kill the Dollar. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) You are right and supernetwork will make nxt and nem famous. NEM? Is NEM included in the SuperNet future plans? There are a lot of issues that need to be ironed out. It is not so easy to just connect to it. There are security and integration issues. The project has good intentions, but to put it together requires a mammoth effort and imho is a technical challenge. I believe the NEM team should just focus on getting our V1 up first. The integration can eat up a lot of resources and prove not viable at this moment in time.

It looks like the AE tokens were just sent out, this batch was 37 stakes. We're at a pretty decent price, we'll see if we have any sellers.

After collapsing the side menu, when my mouse hovers over the area where your address would normally be located when not collapsed, this message appears, "click to copy address to clipboard".
I'm running version 0.2.9 and this happens on both Firefox 31.0 and IE 11.
I reported this on github aswell.

Cross-posting this here from the NEM forum. NEM Marketing Progress UpdateFor the past few weeks the marketing team has been pushing along with the dev team and the community to help steer NEM in the right direction. While we're at the very beginning and there's still a lot to be done, we are pleased to see NEM is slowly coming together. Along the great work coming from the dev team, the NEM brand and image is slowly emerging to be known and respected in the altcoin section. At the moment our strategy consists of 3 simple parts: - Nurturing the community and finding effective ways to attract new people to NEM
- Consolidate our brand and build marketing infrastructure(channels) to allow an effective and wide-reaching communication. Start spreading our message through all the channels we have.
- Ecosystem/business: engage exchanges, payment processors, businesses and merchants to accept NEM and develop a relationship with them.(Planned to happen during beta, after we have a stable situation with points 1 and 2).
In the lines of the above plan here is what we have focused on: - Filtering and making information about NEM, clear and appealing - we are making good progress on that
- Creating a compelling article containing the whole NEM story and spreading the word - done, please see The NEM Story
- Pushing for the NEM logo so we can finally move on with our branding - done
- Establishing NEM brand and image and applying it consistently across all our discussion platforms and media channels - we are making good progress on that, almost done
- Complete threads clean-up - done
- Sending a bi-monthly newsletter containing latest info about NEM - working as planned
- Attempting to establish a relationship with important news outlets - in progress
- Approaching multiple exchanges in order to get NEM listed right at or after launch - we have already approached several of them(and may already have 1 or 2 positive answers) but are still waiting for the feedback.
In addition to all that I am pleased to say that our NEM story article has received some decent traffic and has also been featured on a very important weekly altcoin newsletter( http://altcoinweekly.com/) which can be found here: Issue #37. The Vice article we've been collaborating on seems to be a good step forward, hopefully we'll have more articles like that to come. We have been experimenting with hiring someone to do a press release and publish it across multiple news outlets to see how this would work for NEM. Here are some of the results of the experiment: Please see this report: http://www.docdroid.net/gwik/nem-report1.pdf.htmlAnd some more info regarding the press release: The press release continues to receive traffic on bitcoin PRbuzz: Press release attention on Twitter: Digital Journal: Baystreet: Yahoo Finance: CryptoCoin Updates: Here are some other sites that are not in the report: Please note I am still waiting for some more info regarding the press release. One more thing: the marketing team is thinking about/preparing to attend 2 conferences. The first one will be the Bitconference in Amsterdam from 3-5 September. This will be our first conference and erkki12 will be attending to spread the word about NEM. We won't have a booth but it will be still interesting to see what response we will get. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) The second one is bitcoinexpo2014. Rockethead has already approached them and maybe he will be able to speak and give and presentation about NEM there. We think conferences are the most effective ways where we get the chance to approach the big players in the crypto-ecosystem. Our target is the establish a long term, quality relationship with most important media outlets, exchanges, payment processors, and online stores/businesses/merchants.A lot of other interesting stuff is being prepared behind the scenes but I guess you will find that out as we make progress. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Edit: I also want to emphasize the great value altnemo could add to NEM on both marketing and development side. Huge thanks goes to rockethead and makoto for taking the initiative and trying to make things happen.

Cross-posting this here from the NEM forum.
Amazing, amazing stuff as always! The amount of work being put into making NEM a long-term player in the cryptocurrency market should be clear to anyone by this point. I'll try to spread this news to as many people as I can as well! One marketing strategy which I have done for other altcoins in the past is to utilize fiverr.com. If you don't know, fiverr.com is a website where you can hire individuals to perform various services for you, usually for very cheap ($5 and up, hence the name of the site). I have hired people to print and hand out fliers and do other sorts of guerilla marketing services like this before, so this is something we could possibly think about doing for NEM as well. As for how effective it is, well, who knows, but the price is cheap so you can't really go wrong in my opinion.

I've been playing a bit with the 1-click-install and so far it's really great. Though, i agree that the whole NIS and NCC is not user friendly. It should be more transparent for the user.
Now that the code it out, is there a security audit (contest) that is planned? (I cant remember seeing this in the discussion). I really think that we should keep a couple of stakes for that.
Finally, can someone send me some testNEM?
Cheers!

I am sure if you found a security flaw in the code, that the devs would give you atleast a partial NEMstake as a reward. I don't know any more specifics than that though. By the way, I sent you some testNEM as well ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

https://nxtblocks.info/#section/assets_exchange/stakeholders/4280260188071460715There's been 6 gold for NXT sold so far. IIRC, there were also people who exchanged their NEMstake for gold. http://www.coinfirm.org/According to the Casacius Guide only 5 1oz gold coins (not plated) were produced in 2011. There's also a lot of allegations on BTT (no idea if they're true) that only around half of Casacius' production ever left the warehouse. So it appears to be the case there is more demand for NEMgold than there was for Casacius' gold coins in 2011 (at a time when Bitcoin had 100,000+ users). November 2013 one Casacius 1oz gold coin sold for $1 million USD (according to the guide). Maybe a single NEMgold could fetch this price in the future?
