NEM (XEM) Official Thread - 100% New Code - Easy To Use APIs

[rockethead]

Does anyone know if gold/silver coin crowdsale is an IPO or not?

Is there speculation thread on nem forum?

It is a crowdsale. It is not an IPO. IPO is illegal if not done properly.

China blocked access to BTT a week or two ago, so we could have some NEM stakeholders who can't even access this thread and may not be aware of the official NEM forum.

That is a very good point.  Facebook and Twitter will be blocked there too 100%.  I am guessing Reddit too.  So basically all our normal modes of communication will be cut off.  

All the more reason to get that QQ set up.  

This really is going to mess somethings up.  A lot of Nemsters are Chinese. (and maybe a lot of sock puppets too)

Sure, we can setup QQ but how are you going to tell them about it if all channels are blocked

I've close ties to some Europeans living in China and some Chinese people too. No idea if and how they could help. And if they would do so.
Any suggestions?
May be I can ask for some support.

Most technologically affine folks in China (i.e. those who're into Bitcoin and/or NEM) are used to using VPNs. Most of them won't have issues accessing Bitcointalk or other blocked channels.

[TaunSew]

The block as far as I know only effected Bitcointalk.  People reported that Litecointalk was unaffected.  Maybe the BTC38 and BTER forum (in Chinese) is still available to people within China?

That's a desperate attempt but maybe the only way to get a hold of them.  Redirect them to the NEM forum and you would ask them to confirm their identity with the Bitcoin or NXT wallet they used for registration.

There are "exclusive privileges," however.

Speaking of censorship, America has imposed censorship on certain words.

50$-1NEM is it possible?
what do you guys think?

[makoto1337]

do you believe 1nem will be worth above 20000$??

1nem coin? singular? i think we would need mainstream adoption on a facebook/twitter level before we see that.

Maybe the AltNemo NEM silver coins

Then why don't we. I think it's important to get more media attention. Can't we make a list of people of people like Max Keiser for example?

Please feel free to tell others about NEM

that would be.. 200 Billion marketcap..

if btc = myspace.. and nem = facebook(which i think it will be) then i would say yes and in 10 years or less.

Every thing is possible.Need a lot of smart people to work hard

Would be good if you swarm the local blog/forum sites and tell them about NEM's upcoming distribution effort. Tell them about the technical challenges that they may face and prepare them to scale the Great Firewall.

Dot.com in the late 1990s was around 130 million users and had a capitalization up to $7 trillion.

Paypal is 150 million users and some think it's $40 billion market cap..  but Paypal is a payment processor..   As in that capitalization is determined by them taking your $Fiat and slapping on fees and processing your payments and making revenue and then net profit.

If a digital currency had 150 million users then the capitalization would be in the trillions due to the commodity characteristics of digital currencies.   * * *

Currently Bitcoin right now is estimated to be 500K-2M and it had a peak capitalization of 18 billion.  Take a number like 2 million users and times it by 100 (200 million users) and you get $1.8 trillion.  Of course if Bitcoin ever got that big then more private funds, wall street and banks would go in pushing the capitalization up several more trillion.  Then you would also get those people like real estate flippers going into coins too.


What NEM is and what it becomes is the critical question here.  If NEM is the front runner of cryptos then you could see up to $700 NEM someday.   Otherwise NEM could be one of the runner ups within the context of a $1-$8 trillion digital currency market some day and yes probably attain a price up to $50 as one of the secondary currencies.

When you enter into a race you don't aim for second place or third place - you aim for first place with the intention of winning.

As well you don't aim for second place.

This is axactly what sets NEM apart. Most players in the crypto space go for releasing a coin making some money hit a few exchanges and that it.
Only ver few want to go big and actually change something. NEM is one of those.

Yes I unfortunately have a stake in several of those coins.  Where there's no vision and the development team is incredibly difficult to get ahold of, you suspect the only reason they created their coin was to get beer money or something.

NEM team on the other hand is very large, very communicable and they care about the coin.  If you got a problem or a question about NEM - the developers always take the time to help you and or answer your questions, private messages and that is why many people like NEM.

Yup. I am a man and I don't like being a bridesmaid. Go forth and conquer! The world is an oyster. It is us who will determine its value, not the market who will determine us.

Let's work on this, starting with AltNemo!

[rockethead]

While we are at the subject of AltNemo, I just thought of something else. But before that I would like to make a comment. I notice there are a lot of cheerleaders in our group singing great praises. Sadly, this will not make NEM a contender for the top spot as a project.

What we need is people who will make it happen. Like what Xtester said, 25 of us who will step in to move it.

If one cannot contribute time because it is too much effort, it is ok. You can contribute financially to AltNemo. Don't just cheer us on. Do something. ;-)

Here is some little thing you can help. We would like to hear from you on how our mobile app should be shaped.

I only need 10-15 great or unique features to get this going. Please head over here to contribute your two cents:

https://forum.nemcoin.com/index.php?topic=2456.msg5625#msg5625

PS. Yes, NEM has got a great things going. But my honest opinion is NEM may never make it there. Reason - don't have a good enough crowd to make it happen. We've only got a 9 month window to make it great. Come 2nd half 2015, we will see tens of platforms and ecosystems claiming to do better.

If you have great programmer friends please introduce and bring them to NEM.
