Every cryptocoin faces a lack of connections to the real life.
Asset Exchanges, multigateways etc. nice to have but isn't interesting for Joe Average.
POW, POS, blockchain and much more is nerd terminology and confuses people more than it helps.
Time will come, when sitting in front of a PC, writing codes and adding features is not enough.
Then it's time to lift the asses and connect NEM to the real world.
My idea:
Create a NEM discount card and ask suitable companies to accept NEM-cards
(as for instance - refuel your car and get a NEM-discount added to yoir NEM-Wallet instead of a few cent/gallon discount)
It's little bit like Payback, not Fiat-based but NEM-based. And it could be the start of NEM into real life
It would have a practical use, makes NEM known and may infect Joe Average to consider NEM for other purposes.

You know what? You can start your own company to work on this and get this going. If everyone is like you, then, NEM has much to offer. ;-)

sounds like a great idea..

you wouldnt even need the shop to accept nem.. that would be a bonus though.. it would be like tipping the customers.. we could distribute cards to shops to give customers like points cards. a customer could sign up, take a card and then get "club card" type points.. nem itself could do a redeem the points website kind of thing where you can get phones and stuff like that.. not sure how the redeeming would be done though.. i guess have a code on the cad that you input into the site and that gives access to the account holding the club card points(nem) and when you choose an item you just click send club card points which would send the nem to the site and then request shipping details or something..?

Good additions. Especially the "tipping" is exactly what I mean. It seems the idea is worth to be evolved.

The sell something is great!!

As we have one minute average block time, it is more comfortable for the seller, specially those without cryptocoins knowledge.

Looking back on the original Utopian Future thread I can only think about how successful we have been so far.
Despite some trolls, we have built a very strong core community...

A ton of progress is being made every day, I am sure NEM has a bright future.

Absolutely Agree! NEM has a bright future, without doubt!

It's a lot of fun to finally start to see everything coming together.

NEM twitter acct (https://twitter.com/nemcoin) has almost 600 followers!

I love the wallet's design. 600 followers organic is a pretty good start.

Is this the NEM block explorer?

Yes.

At this point block explorer is probably small overstatement, but it's REALLY helpful during alpha.

Do you have a link to it?

Here it is: http://chain.nem.ninja/

The link to Alpha block explorer can also be found in the OP post.

Hello, I'm new here! Where can i buy some NEM using my LTC? Is there any exchange?

You'd have to convert your LTC to NXT and then buy a NEM stake on the asset exchange inside the NXT wallet.

Cryptsy has an LTC/NXT market.

don't use cryptsy

Fun stuff: there will be hard fork at block 32768. It would actually be good if not everyone would update, just to observe the fork

OK... I will not update (>20M NEM)... please let us know when you have enough data on the fork though.

Should I keep sending transactions while on the fork?

I'll try to put as much details as possible, after we prepare new build.

You can now turn your NEMstake directly into physical gold or silver:

http://forum.nemcoin.com/index.php?topic=2368.msg4541#msg4541

what is the profit for the buyers?

You cant judge the value of these coins now. But no doubt it will be a collectors item and the price .. it could double or triple the amount you buy today. That is IF you believe in this.

If NEM becomes well known throughout the world, this could easily be the case. The mintage is super low. We only plan to mint 300 gold coins, which is almost completely unheard of from the Perth Mint.

It's silver and gold, so a hedge against fiat inflation/world economic collapse. Also, NEM cold wallets are attached, with 100 NEM for silver coins and 1000 NEM for gold coins. See http://altnemo.com/#about
