This was the main problem that country coins exploited to get on top of the list, even though 50 to 70 percent were not tradable and were "locked" for future release to a country.
Only stakes that are available for trade on asset exchanges should be counted to calculate market cap --
coinmarketcap will not make the same mistake as they did with country coin, artificially inflating the ranking. I think he already learnt his lesson,
In the case of country, the coins are locked up for a purpose so they are not outstanding shares. In the case of NEM, no regular share is locked up. For example: any stakeholder can request a token and sell it tomorrow. It is real money and completely actionable. If NEM stake shoot up to 10.000$ tomorrow, I am sure the tokens will be running out pretty fast. It does not stop there. I am open to list else where as long as there are requests so ALL shares are actually tradable and sellable.
I did not talk with Gliss yet but you can bet that NEM will be listed in CMC before the official launch as long as he think maidsafe could be there.
How much do you want to bet? :p
Gliss also has the requirement that the trading must be on atleast one exchange with a good trackrecord and a good API. I don't think he will implement his own implementation for the AE just for one asset. So I wouldn't be so sure about getting listed
Big enough so I can pay him to implement technicality.
Touchê!
But still I don't think the AE qualifies as an exchange with a proven trackrecored in his books. Also no coin build on XCP/RIPPLE ect is listed.
Nonetheless, will be nice to see some novelty
He already said he is looking for Nxt asset API to implement Nxt asset. That is without any "special" incentive.
