I fully agree with you. Whenever someone mentions marketing you get answered with "we don't need any hype".
Nem is hardly used by any business, so how  do you expect it to be valuable in the long term.
No matter how good the tech is, if there is no marketing and no one can use it in their daily life it will become useless.
It looks like nem was just a hobby project or a test project for the Nem team. they are too busy creating some other stuff for real businesses like Mijjn and Catapult. And we just hope that some of the success will flow into Nem. Just pathetic. They have a Nem  marketing fund which they do not use and they do not update us about their plans with regard to Nem itself.
No idea why people are so excited with those side projects, currently Catapult that is supposed to come out in August. I doubt we will see any positive effect that causes shops and businesses to implement NEM

Well-reasoned as usual, thanks for getting back.

I sure hope you're right-one big push higher in NEM and I'll be retired!

I have some more questions about Xtrabytes but don't want to derail the thread; I'll PM you.

NEM must be doing something right to be #4 in marketcap.

I like the static node technology. In theory it's unhackable if you read a little bit into it. Combined with a lowish market cap I'm willing to give it some investment money.  It started out as a scam coin and a talented programmer decided in conjunction with another person to take over the coin before it died and hopefully recoup some of their losses from the scammer who left. They are in the process of creating a new blockchain to replace the original chain, which they dub the "static" chain. Once this is done they will retire the old chain completely, and from there development continues.

NEM is far more advanced and polished as a coin and I'm not convinced the static node tech is even needed compared to NEM's proof of importance and supernodes but it's an interesting tech nonetheless.  I still think NEM could be the coin that takes over bitcoin's role and takes the king spot. In all the articles, particularly the latest article where they talk about Fidelity and Coinbase teaming up to show your coinbase account information on your Fidelity account, they talk about bitcoin's limitations when Fidelity employees were trying to use it, namely the slow transaction speed. NEM solves this problem, and no coin comes close to the scalabliity of NEM, so NEM is still my baby. Plus it has a good logo, simple yet effective name, and good team behind it.

Not many coins have achieved this.
Partnerships are underway, such as mijin, luxtag, dragonfly fintech, chronobank etc.
There is much more that we dont know also in the pipeline. 

ethereum had a big incident   they just rolled back the blockchain and they are worth more now.
i am not scared of blockchain incidents,
if the worst scenario happen  there will be a rolling back option on the table.
nem went through extensive test before it get released.
its unlikely we will have an incident like ether.

i am just feeling sad watching a good product like nem, getting a low level marketing.

i invested the family saving on Nem because i am sure of the bright future of nem
i just dislike the marketing side .
they ignore the crypto space,  not wise not wise
imo Marketing should be divided 50% crypto + 50% non crypto .

You can't be sure of anything in crypto. No matter which coin. Can be BTC, ETH or NEM.
There can be an incident and nem is worth zero tomorrow. Its unlikely but possible.
Pull back any investments, that you are not comfortable after rethinking about it!

Your problem is, that you do wrong.
You just DON'T invests family savings, that you need to feed your kids. You DON'T!
Just invest, what you can afford to loose. And then you can also have the patience you need now.

when nem will roll out the new marketing plan?
when nem will roll out the new website?

this situation is becoming laughable .

we need precise answers.
we are investing our families saving here

i still think the nem bizarre marketing SUCKS

with the tech that we have we should be at 4 billions by now
