One thing I would like to really know is how NEM is going to outpace projects like Nxt. Nxt seems like it's in very active development and has a really strong developer community. I understand NEM has a large stakeholder list, many of whom are inactive, but I'd like to know what NEM will offer over Nxt. It's not enough to have 3k stakeholders, that's miniscule and irrelevant in the big picture, you need to offer unique features and innovative projects to really grow a community. Otherwise you'll have a "get rich quick" community, which is the worse. POI is an exciting feature, but POS has shown that people don't care about better protocols.
This isn't the NXT thread.
I'm not worried about NXT or how many devs they have (even though it is more or less just poor JeanLuc

).
NEM is qualitatively different. We are aiming to go far past BTC. Focusing on coins with only a few thousand users is not interesting.
