Topic: NEM (XEM) Official Thread - 100% New Code - Easy To Use APIs - page 1857. (Read 2984910 times)

Stop posting frud about other projects and coins, ahem "no envy movement"  troll.  There are plenty of people investing. It's the most hyped gen 2.0 project for months and there is no cap.  They did plenty of marketing, attended dozens of conferences, and there is no reason why there shouldn't be a large investment when there is no cap 

They already had $1 million before coindesk article and a thread on BTT.  Where's this money coming from?  Maidsafe IPO had laundered MtGox Bitcoins and Maidsafe corporation and angel investors buying their own coin and that went to $8 million.  What happened to Maidsafe?  Well the volume afterwards became a joke because 99% of it was all internal buying.


Ethereum has the Goldmansach's connection and they presumably have angel investors with deep pockets.  They're making it look like Ethereum actually has demand and a following but we know the opposite to be true - Ethereum forum is essentially dead, almost nobody talks about it on Bitcointalk (and those who did hate it), so Ethereum in a nutshell is another ponzi scheme ran by a few wealthy investors and they're going the copywrighting route like Mastercoin and Maxcoin (spamming lame articles and videos all over the place).

One thing is pretty clear. They have plenty of money to hire high paid developers and marketing money to team up with big companies and and banks. If they don't screw up the launch  later in the winter, I think they have pretty good chance to challenge BTC for #1 spot.

Sent some nem to you

@instacash: your nodes are all inactive and haven't been showing up in #ournem irc. What happened?

They've sold already 10,722,486 ETH. That's 10,722,486/2000 = 5361,243 BTC = 3,332,281$ = 3,3M$ and they got it just in 24h

I would add eMunie into this list as well. The very interesting thing about it is its economic model and price stabilizing mechanism.

Finally got around to getting the alpha running.  Looks Great!!
Check Out my New Sig!   

Send me some nem if you have some to share!

maybe some of you know freeNAS: http://www.freenas.org
have this type of nas server running on my own for years know and today i thought i could be a good solution to put NIS service on that NAS machines. NIS plugin runs stable 24/7 in the backround of your home/buisness fileserver, stabilizing the NEM network.

the marketing effect would be amazing to put NIS into the most widespreaded, non-commercial NAS server solution.

what do you think?

Etherium will take over Litecoin as #2 on the launch day. No one who is invested is going to sell lower than IPO price (that would be shooting yourself in the face). Given the amount that is invested, I see it easily take over #2 spot. What happens in one or two years after that, no one knows.

i didn't know this BTSX. Need to find some info!

some pages ago you were talking about the Ethereum.


Just take a look:

If Im not wrong on my calculus its 3,5 k BTC

Someone believes strongly, like I believe in Nem, at this coin.

Some time ago there was the java 6. People start screaming and cry to chango to java 7. Now is the java 8. 2016 we will have the java 9.

And the world goes on.....

 

How is Ethereum a challenger to Bitcoin?  BTSX is Bitcoin's biggest challenger, followed by NEM.  NXT will implode.  When NEM went on NXT's asset change every NXT holder thought they were sh**ing bricks of gold but now the price is right back to where it has been for ages.

Acceptable rebuttal, intelligent and specific reason given, statement retracted. And I was not intending to insult anyone. This usability stuff is always a balancing act.

@patmast3r - Your point is absolutely taken, I'm just trying to constantly remind everyone how low the bar really is, so where possible let's make strategic decisions. In this case I think people just wanted a solid justification for the "latest and greatest" tendency concern, which has now been given. That certainly wasn't a jab at the devs, whom I respect. Just don't forget how mind bendingly inefficient the average person is on a piece of technology. Statements like "this will someday replace fiat" require the minimum amount of barriers. As you said, that time frame is much larger than the small window of struggle we are seeing here, so acknowledged. 

Java 8 got some improvements we heavily use like CompletableFuture and lambda expressions.

Like I said it's not just going to be a link forever. As soon as Sun/Oracle get's their shit together you are directed to the download page.
The average joe will be important but think about the timframe here. Do you reall think your mum will be the target group for the first couple of months ? People that aren't tech savvy enough to install a simple programm won't use NEM in it's earlier stages anyway. When we hit stores, merchants, banks and NEM reaches actual utility THEN it will be very important to have an even easier client and a mobile wallet. Remeber this is only the first stage so don't be so quick to judge. At some point we may provide an online portal like PayPal - the sky is the limit if we  and stick together as a community and work on this project together.

You'd have to ask the core devs why they chose Java 8 but I can tell you that it's not "for some reason it seems like it only runs on 1.8 because we get a stack trace and we don't investigate it". After everything you've seen is that really the kind of thing you expect from our core devs ? Are you kidding me ?

Didn't Maidsafe do like $8 million in 24 or 48 hours?  Some success that was.  We later found out that most of the IPO funds came from MtGox bots laundering stolen money.   I wonder if Ethereum will be getting laundered Bitcoins too?  I was one of the first to see the Ethereum presale thread and by then they already had a million (from where?  the thread barely had any views and there were no news articles about it on Google.  Who threw in a million so fast?)

Ethereum is a copywrighting coin (journalist coin) like Max Coin and Mastercoin, they pump out these essay articles and hour long boring videos that are only seen by hundreds (with the odd video or two with a few thousand fews).  Between Vitalik flying around the world and partying and doing hour+ long interviews, where he has the time to develop anything.  But, then again, if he's a full time mascot for Goldman Sachs' they probably outsourced the development to India.   


Ethereum is on record for stating it wants a $30 million IPO back in January.  If I put in $1000 - that gives me 0.0000033% (that's five zeros) of all Ethereum.  Just to see a return of 100x Ethereum would have to hit $3 billion which is easier said than done.  I don't think a coin can go anywhere if it's a ponzi scheme ran by rich investors.  There's nothing to incentive early adopters to come on board to use the coin.


As for the Ethereum language bull$hit..  It took a good decade for C++ and Java to work out all the bugs and to have a community of developers, nobody but Vitalik knows how to program in his supposed Ethereum and I bet its' bugged.  As for Ether itself, it's still on generation 1.0 format of PoW / PoS hybrid (Peercoin has been doing that for ages).  Ethereum seems like it's more geared to take on 1.0 coins than to compete with any 2.0 coins out there.
