What is this talk about dropping members who have posted only once or a few times? I don't feel it would be that fair to people like me. I have no relevant skills to help out with the project, but I am following it closely as it really looks magnificent and well thought out and I feel there is great potential. I helped out by buying a stake for almost $80AUD, so why should I be kicked from the stakeholders list? I could post more frequently, but the posts wouldn't be of much use and would be buried by the more important stuff.

I understand that everyone is trying to make it the fairest it can be, however we need to be careful. A lot of legitimate new comers put real money into this and it would quite harsh to boot them. As I mentioned I put in almost $80AUD and shortly after the price dropped significantly (over 50%) as a bonus to the last few new comers. I don't mind as I really saw potential with the project and it looks like my investment is paying off, but I would be extremely sad and disappointed if I was kicked from the stakeholders list simply because I didn't post enough. I may not have much to show for on this forum, but I mean it doesn't mean I haven't talked to my friends and people at my uni about the coin.

This is my first cryptocurrency I've put some real (real to me as I don't have much) money into, and I really hope I get to stay a part of it. The developers are doing an outstanding job and the wallet mock-ups look great. I can't wait until the alpha comes.

It was the suggestion of one guy and one guy only. Utopianfuture has made the rules pretty clear, and from what I've seen he would be very against such a suggestion. It would not be fair at all to the legitimate stakeholders in the bunch.

I waited what impact will have releasing of NXT code. The community thought that it will drive the price up, but in reality it did nothing for NXT, just many people trying to copy it. They didnt, but I heard those people saying they are not going to copy NXT code because it is strangely written.
Not sure how important releasing of code is, but think we should do something to prevent copying it.

First rule of economy says that resources are limited, thats what gives them value.
NEM must be valuebale. I totally stopped caring for 1.gen crypto, just because how much of them is in existence. Dont let that happend to NEM.

You're right the source release had no positive effect for NXT regarding the price. I think that witholding however did have an effect - a negative one.
That's because everyone was anticipating a HUGE price rise and so the price had already risen to extreme highs.
When it was released, all that was left was a lukewarm "meh". Followed by: this is shit  Cheesy

It's very common for a stock (I see it as a stock) to do this.

If you look at the code today, it hardly resembles the original code. Great work from Jean-Luc!

So I was thinking about the robustness to network attack and wanted to bring up a few points that could prove useful.

Random port assignment - Right now easiest way to shutdown btc is to block the ports that they use. These are coded into the client. Having a system in place that dynamically bounces to different ports based on an algorithm might be useful.

Packet Inspection - another easy way to shutdown btc is to drop packets that match the fingerprint. Consider having packets wrapped in an http or video obfuscation layer so they appear as normal traffic.

Just a couple of random thoughts.

Development update:

The development contract announcement will be delayed. My plan is to have the announcement when we have a clear road map of NEM development going forward and preferably within 1-2 weeks of the alpha launch. Unfortunately, at this point we don't have an ETA for the alpha launch yet and consequently, the formal announcement is delayed. My guesstimate of the Alpha is still on later part of April but there are quite a few things that needs to be worked on before we can make a solid ETA.

We currently have two repo, one for NEM infrastructure codes and one for NEM client codes and quite a few other concurrent projects going on. Progress is made on daily basis and team-quality wise I think we are as strong as Ethereum group except that NEM team and development are still in a stealthy mode.

NEM client would be called NEM community client (NCC) and here is NCC specification written by Thies1965. Feel free to comment on it.

These are some mock-up design of NCC

I hope you like what NCC will look like in the future. Let me know if you are a developer and interested in working on expanding NEM ecosystem. I have some ideas about the future direction of NEM that I could share and I am very excited about it. Thanks.    

Don't have the tech knowledge to comment on the NCC spec but very impressed by the NCC design screenshots and if they're indicative of what else is going on behind the scenes, NEM is on its way to become a huge success.

btw, the word NEMber is inspired. Kudos to whoever coined it  Smiley

Nice screenshots...
If the devs can deliver this, NEM looks amazing.
Cant wait to see the beta client in action.

When part of the source code was released for NXT early January, it crashed. It was depressing because I bought a lot the week before. I believe the crash was due to the criticism over the style that the code was written though.

NXT did have a big growth before the code was released in January though.



Yes, I reviewed NXT code which is awful and looks like a new programmer work, however, after the code refactoring, it becomes more and more better.

NEM must be valuebale. I totally stopped caring for 1.gen crypto, just because how much of them is in existence. Dont let that happend to NEM.

In my view we are part of the biggest movement in crypto in 2014 - Our advantage is our big and strong community.
Compare just the numbers of post of members since NEM started to other "coins"  Wink

When NEM is released, it will the first time every that a large fair distribution has ever happened, maybe anytime ever, not just cryptocurrencies.  If we have more people, even the better.  If we come together as a community, NEM can be an extremely powerful force.  This is really a one time only shot.  If NEM doesn't do it, another platform will.  This is our chance and we can take it TOGETHER!

The developers know this and are working hard to make a good code.  Let's support them.

But think about it pat, the average user doesn't care about source code. Just look at the post two spots before this one. Don't you think there are some pros in Nem taking its time in releasing its source code?

Especially if we're honest about not releasing it soon. I feel most people would understand and appreciate the reason. Though it can attract trolls. But I just think the reputation of people behind Nem speaks for itself.

We already have at the very least over 1,500 stake holders, which is different than if we didn't have any and were trying to attract people.

People on the outside will focus on the community and the activity much more than a released a source code. They're not going to go, "This coin looks legit, there's a lot of action going on around it, but I won't join in because they haven't released the source code."

My point basically is that they're not going to care, and seeing 21+ new shitcoins released every week destroying cryptos really worries me. The greed, they saw what happened with Aurora and then and now we have countless country and city coins. Everything just gets copied and diluted.

Bitcoin had the advantage of years without competition. I would love if Nem has some time to establish itself.

Well like I said afaik it's still being discussed allthough I'm almost certain that alpha will have obfuscated binaries.
The devs are following this thread so I'm sure all your points will be taken under consideration.
I myself am still for open-source from the start but we'll see.

Sounds fair.
