still need a phone number so sign-up (which is so totally retarded)
And also you'll need that phone-number again when you login which is why this one-time phone number thing doesn't work very well with the web-version.

I beg to differ. I only ever use the web version. I used a free pay as you go simcard to activate my account and never used it again. My phone is always out. Have been using Telegram for over a week now and never asked me to login or use my phone.

Do you have your browser on super paranoid mode ?
Once I closed my browser it asks me for credentials again.

I don't know what "super paranoid mode" is. I use Windows and Firefox and go to https://telegram.org/dl/webogram
That's it and it doesn't ask me for anything!
I think you should really join as you're one of the key members and some really good ideas are being discussed and sometimes important people are being invited to explain Nem to them such as the CEO of cointeegraph.

Yeah, I'd really love to join telegram, but the whole phone number thing doesnt make sense ...

Hey guys

I am doing some brain storming and need the power of the community.

XEM cryptocurrency is the best "currency" in so much as far as the actual software supporting XEM is the best. But lots of other things about NEM are falling far short.

I want to know what do we "need" to be successfull? What does XEM need? What does NEM community need? And what does NEM software need?

I'll start.

XEM needs:
1) lots of places accepting it
2) more exchanges
3) better fiat <-> XEM options
4)....

NEM community needs:
1) good communication
2) more structure and organization
3) better websites
4) more ways to recruit new people
5) support for community
6)...

NEM software needs:
1) A better GUI
2) more features
3) more powerful partners in industry taking it up
4) better product support
5)...

Nothing of that at all.

2 simple words: USE CASES !!!!!!!

Yes, uses cases are very important and working on them is basically the step after this. If people start off with use cases instead of needs, they often miss something very important.

I think the most important tasks should be first.
The right way is, define a strategy, define use-cases, paint a big picture and then work towards.
And after that all your points could be worked on step by step.

As an investor, it is really annoying to see people discussing nonsense topics here. Why don't you focus on NEM's development instead of feeding FUDsters and NEM haters. I would like to read more stuff that matters.

The real Nem community is on Telegram. I'd like to invite you to join them.

What is the Telegram?Link?

Create an account at https://telegram.org/ if you haven't done this already and PM me your username so that I can ad you.

Registered,and sent PM.

Does telegram actually require phone # to register Huh

Yes. Privacy my ass. That's the reason I haven't joined.

Ah, I just remembered there is a web version too. https://web.telegram.org/#/login

It would suck but a totally anon way to set it up is use a VPN with a US IP and set up a gmail account, then a google voice account, at which point I think you get a free phone number that you can use to register. Or..... at least I think that is how it works. No promises.

Yes, uses cases are very important and working on them is basically the step after this. If people start off with use cases instead of needs, they often miss something very important.

Most people who go out shopping, they don't do it because of a NEED but because they WANT it (basic marketing).
For crypto's in general you could play on people's PAIN/FEAR for governments and banks who try to control people by robbing citizens of their hard earned cash (through tax, interest, bailout etc). There are plenty of people out there who have no clue about crypto's (high school, college and uni students are a good target for us). We need people who would be in for the long run not for some quick cash.
The question is why would someone wants NEM instead of any other crypto out there. Bitcoin for example is the most implemented and respected crypto. It is really how you present Nem in the MEDIA/NEWS (incl online sites such as Yahoo news) - That's how you target large amount of people and build a BRAND. You can have the most advanced crypto ever but if no one sees it and respects it than you have nothing.

Just my 2 cents
