Now many of the concepts of P2P applications out, but there is no good products.
For example, P2P storage, P2P chat, P2P-mail, P2P exchanges.
NEM should identify one of the applications breakthrough.
Such market valuation will be high, only sought after by investors.
good luck.

Some people talk about a cellphone/smartphone wallet. This is indeed the key to succes.  You have to mind that 99% of the worlds population hardly heard of bitcoin nor crypocurrencies and if they did, it was in newsflashes pointing out the volatility.  The big majority of the ones who invested some money in it, did it at the wrong time thus losing their money.  result? No trust...

So, if you want to be accepted as a trustworthy way of transferring money, they need to be sure that the currency they're using doesn't act like some crazed pumo and dump altcoin (+40% today, -70% tomorrow).  That's fun for the daytraders but it scares the hell out of people wanting to buy a burger and noticing they can only afford 1 topping with the same amount of coins a yesterday.

What do you need in order to achieve that?  Be able to make the transfers that quick that you can buy coins for $/€, transfer coins in a split second to whereever you want with the receiver acting the same way (receiving coins/nem/whatever), selling their coins immediately for the same price in $/€.  The only chance of losing anything is in the split second of transfer.  

I'm no technician and don't know if this is realistic but in order to be accepted, you need this kind of stability (and monkey-proof ways of transferring money).

People who believe the currency (in this case: nem) will be worth more tomorrow than today, they just hodl Smiley

 Possible? Hope so.  Too much focused on fiat? Welcome to the real world...

The "real world" is what pisses people off. It's what we're trying to change. Imho we need to replace fiat not rely on it for the future.

This is what your are proposing (plz correct me if I'm wrong):

I wan't to buy a burger and exchange my fiat for NEM.
I give those NEM to Squidward at the counter.
Squidward imediatly exchanges those NEM for fiat again.

Why on earth wouldn't we just exchange fiat directly ? In your scenario cryptos don't have any purpose.

Imagine the same scenario but Squidward exchanges his NEM for a different fiat curreny then what I bought my NEM for. That's actually what Ripple is all about and it's a great concept but I don't think it's the main purpose of NEM. Imho we should try to get rid of fiat for good.

I am not Dorian Nakamoto.

If NEM could create a system to transfer small amounts of NEM via SMS that would be the greatest ever.  Just make sure it only works with small amounts etc.  I don't know how other services do it, but if it can be done, then NEM really really needs to consider it.

All this asset exchange type features are not going to do anything for NEM at this point.  NEM needs to start out attacking different markets.  Small payments via SMS would be great.  If you keep the amounts small then it should help mitigate security issues.

How would you define what a "small amount" is? 10,000 NXT might be small to CfB, but it is more NXT than I can afford to buy.

I think a better solution would be for users to have a wallet that just has less money in it and to run that on their phone.

Please update the timeframe of the "share claiming" for 10 days, at the very least (20 days would be better). At the moment, people could go on a one week vacation and miss the announcement. That could piss off some people.

It was old information. Claiming coins should last at least 1 months.

Excellent! One month seems fair. What's the rush, after all, right?

Nice development in NEM. It is obvious that utopianfuture is a very dedicated leader. Keep up the good work.

May I comment on the following:


3. How can I get my shares ?

Detail instructions in an announcement will be posted here, NEM reddit, NEM facebook, ournem website and the announcement will last at least 5 days. It is your responsibility to read and follow the instructions to claim your shares. So please check back frequently. Thanks.

But we may never know. UP is a very talented leader. Would you say Satoshi had this quality?

Satoshi was academic. Look at his writing style (forum posts) and white paper. Neither BCNext nor UP are academics. 

How do you know I am not academic? it is obvious I am not in CS though.

Nxt NEM

That was so solid deduction Smiley

If Satoshi does want to be unknown and unreachable, and he knows that his writing style has been analyzed, then why would he write as he used to be.

It is easier to take something out than add something.

BCNext had people rewrite his posts in their own words so noone could id him through his way of writing. Do you really think he would tell you if he was UP ?
Not to mention that people usually aren't gonna tell you their real name even if their not "famous".

Also,  UP is the organizer of the project, but not a developer. Both Satoshi and BCNext were programmers.



Maybe he was sick of always having to code it Smiley

Satoshi was a visionary. That was what he brought to the table. When he was even coding bitcoin, it was an older style and not top notch at that time.

He had a vision. That vision brought us all here right now.

It would make total sense if he wasnt doing the coding. He would want the coding to be top notch, and he could never hide that he was Satoshi if he was the one doing the coding.

Thats my take on our fantasy here.
It's possible and it could make sense.

But we may never know. UP is a very talented leader. Would you say Satoshi had this quality?
