Just getting caught up - besides the 6-stake sock puppet issue, which seems to be minor, or at least to have passed - why is the price going down? Is there anything else depressing it, or was that it?
Our price falls along with the NXT price as NEMStake is exclusively traded on the NXT AE and it's value is determined in NXT.
Question becomes:
Why price of NXT is falling?
Alt prices are falling
nxt is rising + nem is stable = nem rising!
nxt rising + nem falling + btc rising = ?? this is some strange chain reaction happening there
It really depends on what you are valuating it against. NXT? BTC? FIAT?
well it's a totally unique market on top of that.
1) high minimum amount of crypto required to buy - large amount of small buyers cut out
2) only traded against nxt - excludes many who don't want use nxt/don't know how + makes it difficult to trade from any other alt to nem.
3) nxt isn't traded on any high volume trusted exchanges - further restrictions
4) traded in tenths so even those with a large amount still have left over nxt that would otherwise have been used to buy nem.
5) as nem rises in value so does the minimum buy in - amount of left over nxt grows exponentially as nem rises in value
Conclusion:
Nem is undervalued by total amount of nxt + btc + alts + fiat that can't make It into nem due to restrictions mentioned above. And the amount not in nem will only grow as time passes as the minimum buy in rises.
I'm not even counting the the lack of nxt/nem<>fiat pairs.
Nem is severely undervalued imo and the higher the market cap goes, the more undervalued it becomes.
Once nem hits major exchanges first week of launch, 90% of the restrictions will be lifted and Nem will correct the undervaluation. Combine that with the confidence gained due to it fully launching + if any major features are released.
I'm seeing multiple lunar landings in a row after all this plays out.
I can't f*%king wait lol
Love your reasoning and optimism....hope it plays out that way..
How would an automated distribution of stakes work...as mentioned earlier...anyone know?
