it is too late for me to join NEM. what a pity
It is not! Because some of the accounts in the initial stakeholder list were detected to be sockpuppet accounts their investments will be refunded and their stakes will be sold in auction.

When are the auctions for the stakes coming up?

@ all:

Why you can't wait until NEM is developed? In my opinion UP and the devs do a very good to build NEM up.
Sometime i read about NEM something like SCAM etc - That is not true and you can verify it in NEM-discusion-board!

Those you say NEM is scam will regret their opinion !

Jaguar is the main coder I believe, but yes just check the main thread. Also, when you're there click on the development plan. This will give you the most up to date information.

UP is doing a great leading the overall movement. From what I've seen thus far, I am very happy thatI was able to join NEM.

utopianfuture, it sounds like you are the head coder?  May I ask how much experience you have?  Are there other coders on this project?

I'd like to request an answer to this very basic question.

Check the first page of official NEM topic, developers are listed etc. But as an answer to you question, UP are not the main coder, which he has said allready.

I'm new to these coins, introduced because of NEM. I think it will be big due to it's big community. I will promote, promote, promote. Thanks to Utopianfuture for giving me the opportunity.

The only people offering opinions are NXT holders, or people expecting a NEM distribution.  Most of the people commenting have a NEM banner in their signature lol.  Would like to read some impartial, unbiased feedback on NEM.


Honestly? Just hold both lol. I believe both have potential. But NXT will always be hated on due to the story of its initial distribution, rationalize it however you want but people do get jealous of the 71 initial stakeholders. If NEM is the same as NXT except with a wider initial distribution, I feel that it has a good chance of succeeding over NXT... After all NXT only has several months' head start on infrastructure

But this is just my opinion, anything can happen

Regarinf initial distribution: I can't look into Utopianfuture's head but I said "interested" on something half serious ( there was a NEM clone thing going on on the boards at that time). I think it was half serious for Utopianfuture also at that time, considering he did a 99% copy paste on the NEM ipo initially. Only after people started sending money one after another in a very fast pace this got a life of its own, I told friends of me to just trust me and drop a couple of tenners into something completely weird (some of those guys still don't know what a bitcoin is) Utopianfuture meanwhile, showed balls (dogestyle) and picked up on his initial half joke, making a herculanean effort. And here we are, 3000 strong.

Is PoI the only thing that differentiates NEM from Nxt besides the method of initial distribution?  I could be wrong but I think Nxt has planned the other features mentioned above.

Quote from: utopianfuture
Did Myspace also plan to do everything Facebook does ?

Hmmm.  Maybe you got that backwards?  Are you saying NEM only differentiates itself in the above-mentioned ways now but there may be other methods of differentiation in the future?

I mean a plan may be very different from reality. There could be many colored coin/ asset exchange implementations and it is still to be seen what kind of implementation works best. NEM is different from NXT as much as NXT is different from Counter Party Protocol or Mastercoin and as much as Whatsapp is different from Viber or Facebook is different from Myspace.

good technology + good leader + huge community + many features + improvements = NEM
+1
+1
Agree

Good technology?  You mean Nxt technology, right?

Many features?  New improvements?  Ok, name them.  What are these amazing improvements?

You have already stated that you have read the development plan in other threads on this forum.

It is very transparent that you have your own agenda. You know the answers to these questions, as some of your actual questions in other threads have the answers in them as well.

So you seem to think that others won't notice this. You think if you keep asking these questions it will make it seem as if there are no answers, therefore promoting your agenda with this seethru spin you are trying to create.

However, most users see right thru you. You are really just making yourself look bad. But that's your choice i guess.

It's actually quite entertaining, but could mislead some, so in all this is bad for NEM, Nxt, and new users that don't know the difference.

Is NEM basically Nxt except that all involved own the same amount?  That wouldn't be so bad.  But if that's not the case, can anyone describe the main point(s) of difference?

NEM promotion board https://trello.com/b/GEWEPSZJ/nem-promotion ; Please contact UtopianFuture to join in.




Please see our development plan for the details of NEM's features. NEM's code bases will be re-written completely from the scratch. NEM plans to combine the best features of Bitcoin and NXT system plus its own innovations. Highlight innovations of NEMcoin decentralized network includes:

+ Unlike Bitcoin and other mining coins, all NEM would be distributed at the genesis block. NEM stakeholders are its own network nodes which verify the transactions and protect the network following a hybrid of Proof of Stake/ Proof of Importance forging mechanism. This type of distribution eliminates the need to have a mining industry which is an external force that imposes a huge cost to Bitcoin and other POW networks. The computational arm-race is avoided by using the hybrid of Proof of Stake/ Proof of Importance forging mechanism.

+ A novel method Proof of Importance forging that rewards the nodes that re most important to the network, not the nodes with the biggest number of NEM.

+ Support for colored coin implementation and the asset exchange is designed in the beginning with advanced features such as automatic settlement, assets listed with an expiration date. NEM focuses on the usability of the asset exchange to make them the premier platform for fundraising, asset listing, token issuing etc.

+ Secure messages for contract storage.

V1 blockchain plans to include all these above features, while more advanced features such as parallel blockchains, reputation system are in discussion and will be included in V2 blockchain in later dates.
