Topic: NEM (XEM) Official Thread - 100% New Code - Easy To Use APIs - page 1035. (Read 2985436 times)

Looks like we will be dropping into the 30's sat range soon.

Its pretty good advice.  

I don't think the video has to be removed entirely, but it shouldn't be the lead.  Leading with a 5w's, a nicely done about section, or something like http://www.nxttechnologytree.com/ (except instead of a web of confusion it had maybe 5-10 neatly organized and arranged points.) would be better. 

I actually favor a technology tree style format where there are little sections are bullet points that can be clicked and expanded for more information.  I would have one on POI, Delegated Harvesting, M of N, Easy to build on API's, Nodes (Eigentrust and Node rewards), Mosiacs/Namespaces, and NEM's infrastructure.  Maybe get a nice symbol and bullet point for each one, then it is clicked on and an animation or pop-up explains more in a short summary with a link for even more info like a full blog or something.  Put that section right underneath the city landscape and then the video under that and leave the rest of the page alone.

Something like that as a focus of the website would help out some I think.

I really agree with a lot here. Really hope people pay attention to this. Subtly is key.

Etherium presale : 31,529 btc (USD 18,439,000 at time of sale)
NEM presale        :    63 btc ( about USD 50,000 at time of sale)
  Etherium presale was around 500 times of NEM presale in btc (around 370 times in USD at time of presale.

Today,
Market cap of Etherium : 101,244,722 USD
Market cap of NEM       :       910,818 USD
  Etherium Market cap is around 111 times of NEM Market cap.

Then, can we say NEM is 3.33 times(370/111) efficient than Etherium, at least until now?

1. Remove the video.  People who worked on it will probably feel insulted but sometimes you have to put aside your ego.  Most crypto videos only get 100s or 1000s of views.  This is even true for the vast majority of Ethereum and other projects.  Having a video on the front page is probably causing more people to quit than to consider NEM.

The most viewed Bitcoin clip only has 6.5 million views after 4 years; when let’s play streamers, pranksters and people playing with dolls can get more views in a week on YouTube.   Conclusion: videos are a waste of time unless it's a product placement.

2.  Answer the 5 Ws.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Ws

Ethereum did this well:


Ethereum on their frontpage does the Five W's

Who: EthDEV
What: Decentralized Platform
Where: Around the world / Internet
When: August 2014
Why: To make applications run better.

Can you brainstorm a list of the 5'Ws for NEM?


3. Obfuscate or hide the buy option.  Asking for money at the front door  = scam on most people's radar.  Replace it with a button called: "Get XEM" which links to another page, where the first options are non-purchasing (like run a NODE, bounties, et cetera) and the purchase option can be displayed at the end.

4.  List all the ecosystem initiatives, projects and companies you can think of.  Even the smallest ones.

What is Ethereum?

Ethereum is a decentralized platform that runs smart contracts: applications that run exactly as programmed without any possibility of downtime, censorship, fraud or third party interference.

Ethereum is how the Internet was supposed to work.

Ethereum was crowdfunded during August 2014 by fans all around the world. It is developed by ETHDEV with contributions from great minds across the globe.

open other web sites and you will see a difference as there at them the first homepage is issued and as it is issued at NEM.

https://www.stellar.org
https://ethereum.org


unless it isn't visible as there at them the first homepage is filled with the description of useful functions and NEM on the first homepage don't have anything.

where the description of that that is multi-signatures?
where about that that NEM possesses innovative and best block chain?

where all that has to be as descriptions and advantages shown on pictures in comparison with other block chain crypto platforms?

therefore also the potential investor going to the homepage NEM sees anything and leaves. therefore he also considers NEM a usual simple coin as on the homepage to it all essence doesn't reveal at once. for search of an essence it is necessary to spend an extra time and to go in I undressed the blog. on it the potential investor has no time and without having taken away any advantages on the homepage he leaves on farther from NEM.

not surprisingly why the price of XEM constantly falls and all investors consider XEM a dead coin. notice - a coin. i.e. they don't even know what is it because as the same Stellar and Ethereum has no detailed description in pictures that such NEM and in what its advantage in comparison with other block chain crypto platforms of new generation.

What are you talking about, nem.io is not empty

NEM is the best designed blockchain platform in existence.  


NEM is a long term investment for me.  Every time I look at GitHub, I always see some new contribution in the past hours and they've never failed me.  NEM has regular updates.  M of N multisig just came out.  Mosaics will be next.  There are also several ecosystem initiatives like CryptoApex, PhotoMead and Makoto's remittance service.   NEM will be a longterm winner.

I honestly don't care if the current price slips or capitalization drops: it just means I'll buy more later.  


NEM is currently a bad terrible short term investment: see reasons below

*  The best short term investments recruited Bitcoin insiders, with connections to capital and cryptomedia, like Pietilä and Buterin.
*  Short term investments add PoW, to appeal to the miners.
*  Short term investments get added to margin trading and lending on Poloniex.  It's easy to buy high and pump & dump when you are trading with other people's money.  

NEM did 0/3.  NXT and BTS did 1/3 with Poloniex.

  If we got NEM added to margin trading and lending on Poloniex then capitalization and volume would shoot up but this would only benefit short term investors who would dump the following week(s).   Nor is it necessary as Makoto has venture funding.


Roger Ver is a well publicized successful investor in Bitcoin and yet he only ever had 0.1% to 0.2% of the eventual 21 million Bitcoins in circulation.  You can buy 0.1% of NEM for only 4 BTC and 0.2% for 8 BTC.  4 BTC and 8 BTC is $1000 - $2000.  

To buy the same percentages in the other 2.0 projects is $10,000 - $20,000 (NXT and BTS) and $150,000 - $300,000 (ETH).  These are approximations and not exact numbers   Only thing cheaper than XEM is maybe Qora, Crypti and NODE and I already own at least 0.1% of those three projects.
