So, how does this differ from Gems? I'm just trying to figure out which one goes better along with me

Btw, could you give an update on the status of this?
Also, does Bter for example, pay the 5% dividends or that will only be done once we have the app up and running?
1) We plan to launch Android app on the Google playstore on October 28th, iPhone/iPad versions will be launch by late November.
2) From what I read about Gems they are a social network focused around allowing advertisers to pay you to view content while also offering messaging. Our focus is more along the lines of a micro commerce platform. Although we both offering messaging Nxtty goes a bit further and offers two distinct messaging services. One is secure, private chat which features app to app encryption & message destruction. The second is open chat which is chat room style messaging combined with cryptocurrency tipping function. Nxtty's centerpiece is the NXTTYconomy which we will roll out in phases. So we will offer commerce, content & communication.
3) We have already paid our 5% rewards at the end of September & August. The next reward will be at the end of October.
