Topic: NEM (XEM) Official Thread - 100% New Code - Easy To Use APIs - page 92. (Read 2984910 times)

My only concern is that with the amount of funding (especially after the last rally) NEM has they would have thought of hiring at least 1 person to update all of NEMs social media. Lot of us with NEM come with different preferences to how we want to receive important NEM news. BTCtalk makes it convenient for me, but I do realize many devs have decided to ignore BTCtalk because they don't seem to be able to ignore/handle the trolls/questions/etc.

It's kind of hard to keep up with dozens of forums especially when some of us have multiple coin holdings.

But it's one opinion and others might not see it that way.

The NEM council election happened today and a new team is in place that should be committed to addressing the stuff that caused people to go batty. The future is looking rather more promising now than then.

I'll check on all these sources, thanks.

Well Said !

...and when it was found out that nelz was buying votes for people to vote for him as vice president, things really kicked off in that thread and on other threads.

Here are the 500 XEM fees buying votes around October 31st - 1st Nov:

nelz is leading in the official whitelisted VP poll, and should be disqualified due to buying votes.  Hence why they didn't want a POI vote.

There'll still be plenty to bitch about.

And ideally this election will bring forward some actual action for public catapult and that's going to create plenty of discussion.



Here's the thread that really lit the touchpaper - https://forum.nem.io/t/foundation-faq-core-dev-perspective/20363

And it enforces your point perfectly. There was plenty going unsaid that outsiders knew nothing about.

I completely understand you.
The discussion is totally fragmented  trough various platforms and that's not good.
The official NEM forum  went more live then ever only lately because of this elections.

I think that forum should have always been the main discussion channel for posting and discussing important stuff
as people can follow there even if not registered.

I hope the forum won't die again after this election ends. 

I don't use telegram, discord, or any other chat service.

The closest I use is slack but even that I hardly use.

There's not much discussion in btctalk anymore, so maybe I should get on another platform from what it looks like.

I don't think we will get a lot of info anyways unless were part of their inner circle.

Where have you been? If you opened the Telegram channels your computer would probably slap you.

Yes. A week is shit. The entire thing's been shit. I'll guess that that tiny a window was created to prevent as many of the 'wrong' votes as possible.

Hopefully a result will be scraped that'll enable some changes as lots of unappetising behaviour has emerged. If not then the foundation will have to be forked and what's left behind will need to have a fork stuck in it.

A week? That's weak coming from NEM.

Should have been left up for at least 1 month, not everyone is glued to their screen and bitcointalk, twitter, fb, etc.

If the cooperation with Ripple says anything about NEM, NEM is a about to go into uncharted territory with that centralized shill coin. Let's see how it plays out.

Anyway for those interested about this info check the following links:

It's too late for anyone to vote officially if they're not registered. They only opened entries for a week which is a fucking joke.

The unofficial PoI vote is inside the NEM wallet in the polls section, but like I said it's not the real vote though it might be taken into account by a few people with real votes.

Somebody should post the link to the poll or how to go about voting for those of us who don't know.

In principle, the majority of all coins are set to sell, which is quite normal for the market environment and nothing special for NEM. There is no point in believing such ratings. Just posting a screenshot like that doesn't help to have a good discussion.

You should've pointed out that this isn't too far off meaningless. There is one council member who has agreed to vote based on the PoI results, and no doubt other eligible voters may pay attention to it. That's as far as it goes.

Other than that it's an opinion poll, not a vote. Hopefully if there's some new blood PoI will be taken into account in future.

NEM Foundation made their own voting process, but NEM community - our own.


NEM Foundation != NEM community


if you have PoI - please vote. This really important election for NEM community

Since July long term chart was showing downtrend which looking to be reversed. That was not something to be worried about because decline in its price was anyway because this is one of the very few markets where people hedged against the volatility. This has defined its future direction with long lasting overall positive performance. NEM looks ready to start new rally upon confirming of stability in market as whole.

One of the International Monetary Fund's top officials warned on Tuesday that storm clouds were gathering over the global economy and that governments and central banks might not be well- equipped to cope.

This is good news for crypto in general.
