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

[kattokassinen]

Seems like Java 8 is officially supported now which will make the installation of the nem client via webstart way more comfortable.

Thanks Oracle

Oracle? Who are you talking about? The Oracles of NEM that Java 8 will be released officially in time?

Our Oracles of NEM planned it.

This is great news. I used to think that the use of Java 8 was NEM's greatest weakness, but this changes everything. I pretty much assumed that not many would have bothered to install unsupported Java version for a new coin only.

what's nemesis?

what's usually called genesis block i.e. the very first block of the blockchain.
for NEM it's NEMesis.

No, it doesn't make much sense but it sounds cool

I hope it will stay 4B coins and not 8B.

That is too much.

Well any number can be used. As I understand, the community is concerned by the use of 4 because in the Asian countries this is considered as the unlucky number. This is not naive and should be taken into consideration very much. We want our Asian friends with us and not against us, after all this is a huge, huge market that we don't want to lose. Look what they did to BTC in the last pump, took it from $200 to $1200 in a month.

I would make it nice and round 5B coins. Just multiply everybody's stake by 1.25. Heck, we can even make it 2B, just divide everybody's stake by 2.

But please, keep in mind that "unlucky No. 4" of the Eastern cultures!! 

[Scharfenberger]

uhm...but after the official release, does NEM can be traded directly with BTC?

no one know the answer to this question?

The answer is pretty obvious *YES*

Of course that the answer is YES!! After the launch, the coin will be added to the many exchanges. There you will be able to trade it to BTC..

I hope that the DEVs are already lining up some exchanges so the NEM can be added right away. This is what BTSX did with their coin upon the launch. They were added to Bter and BTC38 immediately.

We have to do the same for a successful start of NEM.
The more exchanges are aware of NEM the more people are aware of NEM and its benefits.
Finally this will increase the value of NEM and therefore NEM will attract also the sceptic people who didn't believe in NEM in the beginning.

That's right.
A good friend of mine comes from china. She really hates the number 4, 444, 478 etcetera for pronouncing reasons. The pronounciation of 4 means something equal to death.  A lot of early stakeholders and possible investors after launch come from china.

Anyway we shouldn't double the amount of NEM and stay close to the aimed 4B. E.g. 3.999.999.999.

3.999.999.999 will work as well.. I see no 4 there..

just burn one nem after launch.. it will then say 3,999,xxbla bla on CMC. problem solved.

If the burning of one NEM is so easy to adopt we should definitively do it.  
(just my opinion)

A : How many NEM coins exist?
B : The no. of NEM coins is 3,999,99.....
A : Um...roughly 4 billion coins.
B : No, No.... it's 3,999,999...
A : What's the difference? It's same to me.
B : "To die" or "Not to die"... It's not same!
A : ......

[vytasz7]

if every chinese burn for 1 nem coin we could get to 3 billion and everyone is happy

A good point on the forum at the moment about block rewards https://forum.nemcoin.com/index.php?topic=2501.90

Jabo38 and Alkaline reckon that some portion of unclaimed stakes should be put to use rewarding ' harvesting'

I think that this could be important at least in the early stages of NEM development.

What do you think? Anyone not registered on the Forum yet, please do and leave a comment.

The first thing that comes to mind is will block reward increase the value of NEM other than enriching the individual with a few more NEMs?

Is having 10 more NEMs that is worth, say, 0.2cts each better or having NEM that is worth 2cts. each.

I would use the NEMs to develop more applications that will enhance the value of NEM. If we leave NEM as it is, it will never fly. Real money is being poured into Bitcoin projects. Few ever wonder beyond that. If NEM is left alone, it will be like a feather coin reenacted.

What we need is a holistic offering that people cannot help but to use it.

Agreed, there needs to be incentive for harvesting and strengthening the network.

[kelpa]

uhm...but after the official release, does NEM can be traded directly with BTC?

no one know the answer to this question?

Hmm if am i right NEM will be trading on Poliniex after official launch

I believe major altcoin exchange Cryptsy will surely prepare NEM-BTC trading market.

where did you get this information? that would be awesome news

We should spread NEM as much as we can. For this reason it would be better not to reward harvesting people by a separate bonus. The more we can spread NEM, the more people will trust NEM. And you all know that we need trust for our aim to establish a new economy movement.

So we could invest the unclaimed stakes for App-development ( like NEM Wallet, perhaps also some small NEM games like candy-crush, doodle jump combined with chat-function).
App-development like this for example will help to bring NEM into everybody's mind.

Just my 2 cents

AFAIK Cryptsy implements just about any currency.
