Its so depressing everytime I look my xem is worth less and less
Stop trolling on the price!
Things will get better soon, and these devs are some of the few that deliver and dont hold false promises.
low xem price on contrary has to please. because right now if you have free cash you can buy more and more xem.
in 5 years you will remember this time where everyone had an opportunity to buy xem on such low price.
personally i on each falling of price buy some xem and even i rejoice to that price falls. then we will have no such time any more when xem buy up not as now two person and many people will need every day xem.
Or NEM will join the growing graveyard of dead altcoins. Who knows really. I've heard this "speech" about pretty much every single other alt that has ever existed.. dedicated followers trying to talk up the price, convincing themselves that they will be rich one day. Look in any thread about any alt with a falling price and you will find the same speech.
That said, I do hold some NEM. But it's a small speculative position.
if to speak about xem, all of us anyway come nearer every day to an interesting event. or xem as a coin will die at exchangers. or it will shoot up in price. about that will make someone rich here speech doesn't even go to shortest possible time. because all altcoins are at a great disadvantage at those moments when raise of btc begins. and therefore raise of altcoins is improbable at moments of raise of btc. if you want raise of your investments, you shouldn't put in altcoins by no means, remain always in btc. but if you want raise of your knowledge, in this case you can put in new technologies such as nem. what do you receive instead of material benefits? new knowledge, new technologies, more improved everything than btc which gives only material benefits, but thus doesn't give that knowledge and new technologies which nem technology gives. the market turns out works to opposite side. that isn't object of new knowledge, new technologies it's appreciated by market. that is object of new technologies and new knowledge it isn't appreciated by market. knowing it u will always know that investing in xem you don't receive raise in material, you receive raise of knowledge and raise of education in altcoins. if you approach business with such approach, a view of things will be perfect another.
btc-profit material. xem-raise in knowledge.
I invest in whatever crypto because of the technology and not because of speculation on price rise etc.
We know that NEM or NXT and many other "altcoins" have far better technological advantage than BTC, but the masses invest in BTC because thats the first crypto and everyone talks about it.
Yes holding onto BTC is probably not a bad idea. Me thinks i should perhaps buy some incase it did ever reach $10K or some even question $1M which i think is ridiculous.
By that stage BTC would need some serious improvements as its blockchain would increase tenfold and the TPS would be too low.
Anyway, most 2.0 platforms have made their's more futureproof and thats something that is more important than price.
