Marketing NEM after fundraising

Ok Nem has done a good job attracting stakeholders with its initial equal distribution plan but what happens after the close of the fundraising?  Why would people choose to invest in NEM( apart from being a great coin ) instead of the other 100 or more crypto currencies when the carrot of a million Nem per stake no longer exists.

We need to think of ways to differentiate Nem from the competition. The following are few ideas that occurred in my mind.

- The wallet should contain a small amount of NEM( 100Nem?) to entice people to download the wallet to properly see just how much better it is compared to other cryptos.

- Stake holders should band together and sponsor good causes for goodwill. Raising money to help buy medical supply for our unfortunate friends in Syria, Sudan is a great way to do good while helping NEM cause too.

- Start a Nem community market with goods sole priced in NEM.

- start a fundraising campaign to get a 10-20 sec commercial on bbc,cnn( if allowed)

any other ideas you guys can think of?  

@ utopianfuture

maybe, it would be good to get somebody with an economical background (if someone of you already is, ignore this) in the developer team!
somebody who can do the maths and rough progronses (for example if we want to figure out how many fees should be forged at what amount of coins.)
this should probably not just be random intuition.

I think this would make a very convincing and holistic crypto!

Yep that's pretty much it. Many people have tried providing a service where you can buy cryptos via PayPal and it usually takes less than a month for PayPal to shut it down. The only service I know that is still able to sell BTC for PayPal is virwox.

THIS.
IS.
ABSOLUTE.
AWESOMENESS.

This is certainly the best news for NEM since introduction! 
I think there is little interest in a NXT clone (even with an optimised distribution), but the way NEM is evolving is just very promising IMHO!

NEM is not planned to be a fork of NXT anymore but rather NEM code bases would be re-written completely based on the best ideas in Bitcoin and NXT plus its own innovations.

Fundraising updates: As we are moving past page 70, I would like to announce a few updates going forward.

- Given the our targets in funding and the number of stakeholders, the fundraising will stop after page 90 of registration thread 2. After that there will be a public auditing of the stakeholder list based on the public information in the two registration threads including account names and transaction records. Every NEM stakeholders are invited to look at the records for mistakes and discrepancies; we will also apply the disclaimer "the development team reserves the right to refund you the money if an effort to unfairly accumulate NEM stakes is discovered" to refund big multi-accounters based on the taint analysis results. Details about this process will be published after the fundraising is over at page 90.    

- Details about the management of development stakes as well as development fund will also be published after page 90. There will be a refund period after this announcement so if you don't like the way funding for development is handled you can get a refund.

- Promotional stakes will be open again but to veteran accounts (open before the fundraising and has activity >20) only.

- An interesting statistics about our stakeholders' population will be published soon.

Thanks for supporting NEM. We will be a great community.

I know very little about the details of opening an exchange such as this, but I'm under the impression it's extremely difficult; not technically, but in terms of getting tied up in all sorts of legal trash... essentially it's not really worth it unless your exchange is likely to get lots f volume.

it is too early, they're still writing the codes.

Since I know myself unfortunately too little! We should be hearing what eg utopianfuture says that?

When next it has indeed taken a long time until it was listed on other exchanges! And when would be communicated to vircurex before launch details so that they can prepare to manage the other exchanges not in such a short time;)
