You know what's kind of sad, that chances are that before this coin is launched at least one stakeholder might pass away. Cross my fingers that no one does.

I know, it's a horrible thought, but I do often wonder about the future of coins once people start dying. Do you guys think some sort of slight inflation might be a good thing. Perhaps .5% every year, spread equally to all accounts. That way nobody loses value on their coins.

it will have the exact reverse effect. With regards to the signature issue, I see what u are saying, but nemcoin does not sound inspirational. How about " I am part of The New Economy Movement"  along with www.ournem.com.

It feels much more personal Smiley

I'm not suggesting to remove "New Economy Movement," but rather to also add the word Nem Coin in there. Maybe we should do a study on the subject.

But for example, I've promoted Nem in many different websites, for example on the CNN comment section. I do a pitch basically, and if I just wrote NEM and people there decided to search for the term, they would never find what I was talking about.

So at least if we're talking to main stream people we should say Nem coin.

I don't think we should do this. Because NXT is not doing it also. UP can explain this better I think before everyone uses NEM coin.

NEM is NOT a coin. I think coins can be built on top of the NEM platform. Like NXT.

UP, please enlighten us. Because this is an important issue.

I don't like using the term coin either, but you're right it is an important issue because mainstream people being able to research Nem is very important. Sometimes it's good to sacrifice for the good of something, even if it means adding a term goes against a certain criteria that a person really wants to follow.

If I'm on a website interacting with regular people that only know about Bitcoins and don't even know about Litecoin, then adding "coin" to Nem gives them a tangible idea of what Nem is. A tangible idea that they can Google and find out more about.

I know tangible might not be the correct word since you can't actually hold the coins, but you get the idea.

Edit: I really have to go to bed, so I'll be back tomorrow.

to be honest, I am a bit surprised more stakeholders are not excited as I am and choose to remain silent Huh.  With 3000 members I thought this place with be buzzing. UPs idea of selecting only active contributors for the next round is really important.  We need some new blood Embarrassed .

I was thinking the same, this place should be flooded with more people.

But on the bright side it is more active than most new coins, and I imagine there will be a huge up increase when Nem is nearing completion.

I guess you're right. I just keep thinking of people not being responsible and losing their hard drive, password, etc causing millions of coins to be destroyed.

What about implementing a password recovery method, where people can put test question and if they answer correctly they can recover it.

That could be a good thing and a life saver for many, though I guess it can also be a huge risk with people who are careless about what information they choose as a question, since most people are careless and clueless about how easy it is for people to collect information on them. It would definitely create situations were a scammer might read up on a person on Facebook, gather a lot of basic information about them, and try to recover the password.

I'm basically thinking about the less technical people who might join or have joined Nem.

Another thing that I would like to bring up is our signature.

For my signature I decided to put Nem the short version of the coin, and Nem coin, so that if people were curious enough to Google they could find these threads.

I'm concerned that having a signature that just says New Economy Movement might not be enough for someone on Bitcointalk who still hasn't heard and wonders what it is, to find information on it.

Because if you Google "New Economy Movement" then you're just going to find 174 billion unrelated results. If they Google just Nem, then they're just going to find some corporation. But if they Google Nem Coin, then it will lead them to links to this coin, and not just to forums on Bitcointalk.

So I think it would be a good idea for us all to in addition to New Economy Movement, we also add Nem Coin someplace in there.

I hope I don't sound like I'm being critical, I'm just looking out for this coin that I really, really love.

Edit: If you Google Nemcoin, then you get Namecoin. The same if you search for it on YouTube, so I will modify my signature from Nemcoin to Nem Coin.

Realistically what are peoples' thoughts of future nem prices?  Is a $0.01 possible?

it all depends on the quality of the coin as well as our active support as a community.
If we succeed in doing both, there is no reason why we cant surpass the market cap of dogecoin and Nxt.

Yeah, once you start confiscating peoples' stakes anything can happen!

I am not playing ur game. u just have to say i am interested. Good luck  Smiley with NXT

The development team did not sell NEM stakes or actively looked for passive investors during the fundraising;

Really?  What is this then?

"In the first 20 pages, stake spots are reserved only by showing "interest". After page 20, a fee has been introduced for late adopters. People who join after page 20 will still be distributed an equal share of NEM but they have to pay a fee to join in.

History of the fund raising :

-------------------------
First 20 pages   : free to join in
pages 21-30     : fee = 0.001 btc or  10nxt
pages 31-40     : fee= 0.002 btc or 20 nxt ;
pages 41-50     : fee= 0.004 btc or 40 nxt
page 51-60       : fee= 0.008btc or 80nxt
page 61-70       : fee=0.016btc or 160nxt
page 71-80       :fee=0.0025 or 250nxt
-------------------------

How to join after page 80. Two ways

1. Pay a fee to join in
    
    Send 300 NXT to the address      14343293611098709683
    Send 0.03 BTC to the address    1Lk5Paws9T1YpoSeLeZT7ZeSQKW7UNq4TJ

The fee to join in will be 350 NXT or 0.035BTC after page 90. The fee will be increased by 50NXT or 0.005BTC after every 10 pages until the fundraising is over."

Any news

Here is plan.

We are going to wait until

1. It is feasible to clone NXT code bases, it would probably not possible until April even though it might be possible earlier  

2. Gathering a mass movement with at least more than 3000 stake holders.

3. In the mean time, we can discuss making logo, currency symbol, setting forum; discussing everything else

4. At some point, I will set up some type of exchange to buy/ sell initial stakes. This will probably happen before the genesis block.

5. Community should give input and make the movement possible. Because at this point I only have 1 account stake as many others.


wow ! good job!

I have not been on in a while due to life. Will try to be more active. I just came from the Spanish section of this place and left a post defending Nem since some people were saying it was a scam. Here's the thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/nem-466688
