Yeah, let me just magically create a bunch of free time with all my TimeCoins. How about you just buy them from me and you do all of the above?
I've already bought/mined my own and plan to do this, but if I ever do want any more, I will get back to you.
NMC has basically been destroyed by people who mined them to resell. Its upsetting to see such a cool idea get ruined, now a domain squatter can exchange a couple of $ for NMC and buy 1,000's of .bit addresses for pennies a piece and basically cover the enter TLD in spammy "Congratulations! You’ve won a trip to sunny Guantanamo Bay" type websites. Its only a matter of time, there's already a squatter on the forums selling his 2 letter .bit domains.
Snooze ya lose I guess. Kinda like the "unfair" situation of the first BTC mining adopters.
I've read elsewhere that speculation helps find a commodity's true value, and then if there is any real value there (obviously there is with NMC), speculation would then drive the price up. Including exchange at a major, bona-fide place like MtGox would then be helpful for driving the price up, IMO.
Disclaimer, in case you didn't get it by now: I want to sell my NMC for as much purchasing power as I can. BTW suggestion noted: I'm using some of my rare, precious spare time to research re-salable domain names.
