70 Satoshi for 1 XEM. Wow such deal. NXT is 4000 Satoshi for 1 NXT. I can buy 57x more XEM than NXT. Bitshares is 212 Satoshi. I can buy 3x-4x more XEM than BTS.
XEM is cheapest Bitcoin 2.0+ Platform and thus most profit for investors. This is guaranteed winner.
Soon it is 1000s Satoshi or more. $100 make $5000 soon, wow.
BitShares isn't 212 satoshis. It's 1,504 satoshis.
You also really need to take the total coin supply into account in order for any comparisons to be meaningful. marechoux has explained this point quite well. Another analogy is to think of it as buying a percentage stake in a company. Assuming two companies have the same market cap, would you rather have 1 share out of a total of 90 shares or 1 share out of a total of 10 shares?
The first grants you ownership of little over 1% of the company. The latter grant you ownership of 10%. The best option then is to choose the latter. Hence the total number of coins (or in this analogy, shares) you own is meaningless unless you also know the total supply.
NEM has 9 billion coins. NXT has 1 billion coins. Even given that the market caps are identical, would you rather have 1 coin out of a total of 9 billion or 1 coin out of a total of 1 billion?
Of course, you should choose the latter option.
So it seems that Taunsew does not have any basic economic knowledge...
Have you ever heard about money supply?
Indeed you can buy 57X more NEM than NXT but it will be 9 times more diluted compared to NXT as there is 9 Billion XEM and only 1 Billion NXT.
So the good ration would be 57/9= 6.3 X more.
That basic mistake says long about you and your education level....
Saying it's guarranteed winner is also very naive...
I invested in NXT and BTS also for the reason there is much more potential than bitcoin as the price is much lower, but there is no guarrantee winner, actually the odds to win are even lower than bitcoin, just the reward will be hundreds times more than bitcoin, that's why I accept this higher risk but there is no guarantee.
In a general way I think it would be foolish to invest all in currency 2.0, but it would also be stupid to not invest at least 5-10% of your crypto capital in these new promising coins.
If the bitcoin rise and not altcoin then you will miss 5% profit, but if one of these coin surpass bitcoin you will just have your tears to cry and regret...
About XEM and NXT I've chosen to not invest in XEM as this kind of platform is a global economy so you need some DAC working with the currency.
This challenge start to be completed by NXT even if it is still not enough, but on NEM there is still nothing and I'm affraid it will last like this.
If some serious companies join NEM I would revise my judgement but from now the risk seems too high for me.
I'm invested in NEM but not to the same extent as NXT. I'm also invested in BTS too. Other than your choice to not buy any NEM, I definitely agree with your viewpoint. NXT wouldn't be what it is today without people like jl777. jl777 isn't a core NXT dev but what he does is he builds services that exist on top of the NXT core platform. It is these services that add value into the platform.
It's nice to think that if the technology is good, then the talent should follow but the situation today is quite different compared with 2013 and early 2014. When NXT was launched, it was pretty much the only functioning 2.0 platform in the altcoin space. Nowadays, there are many competing 2.0 platforms.
For example such coins as STR and XRP have on 100 000 000 000 coins, thus they don't stand up far for 100 Satoshi.
If you want to get into ridiculous amounts, there are coins like CENT which have trillions upon trillions of coins. That one even had individual wallets containing trillions of coins.
And finally to add one more point, it's possible that having a lower price per coin could have psychological implications. Many people were attracted to Dogecoin's low price when Bitcoin was worth almost $1,000. The whole movement to switch over to "bits" was pretty much born out of this idea. A cheaper NEM price might actually encourage a few more people to buy NEM vs. NXT or BTS (although I suspect this effect probably won't be very strong).
