He's a fixture here in the community. Every village has at least one guy like him.

He sure is a lively character.

His NEM - MEN branding campaign
Is very easy on the eyes, that's for sure.


And sometimes he way off in outer space, but we can't deny at other times, he says what needs to be said.

He's bipolar, so let's try to show patience with his disability. Plus, when he's UP, he's VERY UP and can really tell it like it is.

When he's down? Well... lol he's a character all right.


Is it true what I heard that the NEM community actually officially adopted him?

I think I heard that

Isn't all the cryptocoin world (including bitcoin) just like that?

The only difference I see: our developers are not trying to pump XEM with wapourware. They can hardly be  seen here.
We hope this is because they are developing beautiful features like they already did.
Only time will tell...

The guy who proposed increasing the coin was motivated by ripple. He thought  nem will have great fake marketcapp like ripple with trillions and trillions of coins. He didn't realize that another consequence of that would be that the price increase will become much harder.

I agree with you that nem isn't going anywhere anytime soon  given there are plenty of sock puppets and "developement coins" (more than 50%) that are still scheduled to be dumped in future.

The marketcap is fake, so it will only go down in future, not up.

So much FUD going around on the two best crypto platforms currently active.
Why its no surprise to me? Because its so logical that these currencies are seen as a threat to so many other shitcoins!

We will ultimately see NXT and NEM both PREVAIL in the long term!

If you look at price analysis and price range in BTC, NXT hasn't really changed since March 2014.  
Likewises NEMstake was going for 27,000 NXT before October 2014 and today 2.225M XEM is still 27,000 NXT.
It's Bitcoin that has lost $Fiat value.  It's also NXT and NEM that has otherwise stagnated (static) in user expansion and/or capitalization growth.

There's been stuff like Bitshares, Doge rebounding, Stellar and Dash which shot past NXT.  Why hasn't NXT, beyond that one surge around July 2014, made any market progress?    You tell me.   My answer is NXT NEM (and many alternates) only live on Bitcointalk and in the coding (mercy) of automated bots on the exchanges.  


The big marketing problem on the internet is as soon as you try to peddle your alternate on a non-crypto website, people usually reply with something dumb like: "is this a scam like that Bitcoin?".  

 Bitcoin itself is only used by 100,000 after 6 years (Tumblr had 75,000 users within their first 12 days!).  There's people who can get 100,000 views on YouTube within hours of posting a video.   There's women on instagram who get more donations from men than there are bitcoin users.  

Most people think Bitcoin is a thing where you order drugs and send hit men after people.   That's why cryptocurrencies need products and services that (regular) people want and need.  The best marketing you can have is products people actually need and it will sell itself.

If you're a long term position like me: you think Litecoin and Doge are just a waste of time as they will never be able to leave Bitcoin's shadow.  There's a glimmer of hope with projects like NEM and NXT, which have ecosystem initiatives and products in developments, that might actually produce an userbase bigger than 100,000.

Quick, sell your kidneys and buy XEM! 

Any closer to getting through those last cases? I sent my 'not a sock'  pm to makoto on March 12th! No reply or confirmation of timeframes.
