Two important pieces of information came out:
1. KYC mandatory for the NET -> NIMIQ conversion
2. Denomination: instead of 1 NET -> 0.1 NIMIQ it will be 1 NET -> 100 NIMIQ. Total supply will be 21 billion NIMIQ instead of 21 million.

Release of the mainnet is still pencilled in for Q1 2018. Before that, there will be another update to the testnet.
Anything concrete yet the conversion?
Also: I'm concerned about giving personal information and ID to a party I don't know and is not a well known well secured exchange.
Glad I didn't buy NET yet.

Whoa! Just 'KYC mandatory' doesn't cut it!

Okay, I got my NET as part of a group buy-in, so it's my lack of due diligence that got me here -- but it's also the case that the information on this project has been presented poorly.

So: 'We may determine . . . that it is necessary to obtain certain information . . . ' [ https://nimiq.com/terms/ ]  This is fair enough for the early stages; but I've never heard of a dev team requiring KYC -- to trade on centralised exchanges, yes; but to own a crypto? No.

And I feel the following is disingenuous: '[KYC] only applies to the replacement of NET for NIM.' Once you've got out data, you've got our data . . .

My inclination is to sell my holdings forthwith. Goodness, I hope I've misinterpreted something here. What is 'KYC'? What data? Held by whom? Under what security protocols? For how long?

Some might have been annoyed that KYC will be required to exchange NET to NIM.

I really hope the main net launches soon and nimiq will be a huge success
will be a long term holder

If you want to be a long time holder you don't need to be concerned about the main net launching soon Cheesy But I know its tempting to see all green in the portfolio

But many panicked holder, does not mean it's all very safe, all have also been hooked dumper strain, to return to the portfolio was a long time to be sure.

Any updates on being able to go from NET -> NIM in the US once mainnet launches?
I might hope the conversion is not limited to US residents only Wink

US residents cannot convert. Read the latest blog.

Does it makes sense to go with 1NET = 100 NIM
i mean earlier allocation was much better, increase in supply will affect price

Good news! I see no problem in KnowYourCustomer myself. If that is what it takes to get the final product fine..

The change from 21 million to 21 billion is also a great idea. Same overall value but easier to use when aiming to become a globally used crypto. Otherwise one Nimiq might become so expensive that you always end up paying with 0,004 etc. That feels weird. In this case more coinsupply is better for transactions.  I like everything about this project.

The number 1. is total turnoff  Sad


This is necessary in order to be able to get into the major american exchanges like bittrex. I think that Nimiq listing on the big exchanges will be good for us all. Better to understand it.

Good thing! I'm still wondering "why not a 1:1 conversion?" but anyway...

Nimiq was Elion's project name before Nimiq.... as I remember it was realstate investment or something like that.....someone shared the website and link referral back in the good old FUD days😎So "Nimiq" has been it, even before NET or NIM
