NEM (XEM) Official Thread - 100% New Code - Easy To Use APIs

[Vicodin]

We need Senior Members with a Sig like that, too

Thanks Dandruff!!!

[nzminer]

Okay guys, I need you help with this one.  Let's make XEM the official currency of the new country Liberland.  Please join this group and then vote up XEM after they approve you.  https://www.facebook.com/groups/liberland/

This should be top priority IMO. Could explode NEM into public discourse.

Yes i think this is a must...

[jabo38]

Also, our current slogan isn't bad, but it isn't that good either.  It is more or less a generic statement that can be applied to any crypto, and isn't even said that well. 

It is as follows: NEM is a movement which aims to create a new economy based on the principles of decentralization, financial freedom, and equality of opportunity.

It might worthwhile to just think about some other suggestions. 

Here are a couple.

NEM is a blockchain platform being designed for service, speed, and security.

NEM - Because your time matters, your money matters, your security matters, and your information matters – Because YOU matter.

Please come by the forum here https://forum.ournem.com/general-discussion/change-our-introduction/ and give some feedback and suggestions for new ideas. 

Something that is short and strong that expresses a little bit more of NEM's personality would be nice.

NEM - Because your time matters, your money matters, your security matters, and your information matters – Because YOU matter.

What's that supposed to mean to newbies?
I think you need to analyse the differences between Nem and other coins, what future developments is Nem planning compared to other coins and why is Nem better. ONLY THAN YOU DEFINE A SLOGAN.
There has to be a promotion/marketing team globally to try and promote Nem to trading business, shopping malls and don't forget about Paypal, Amazon and Ebay + you need news/media exposure. I can't even find anything about Nem in coindesk?
Take a look at this where you can buy your groceries with a cryptocoin https://asktom.cf/index.php?topic=554412.msg11084189#msg11084189 and there are many more merchants https://asktom.cf/index.php?topic=554412.0 It looks kinda stable because of there adaptations.


Also more tutorials are needed to give access to non technical people. Nem info is also all over the place (unstructured). You need to do your own research to find different types of info. On the website for example you can't even find a link to the forum or nodes. (By the way I still haven't received an activation email and there is no forum support to solve this issue!!)

Just my 2cents

Good feedback. 

Here are some links to tutorials for you.  http://blog.nem.io/nem-tutorial-list/  We are also writing more and will continue to write more. 

We are trying to also centralize all information around nem.io so that in the future it won't be so hard for people to figure out.

Also, the email may be in your spam folder.  Also, can you tell me your email provider?  I want to pass along all this information to the guy that runs the forum. 

Ah, and by any chance did you also try Gmail?

So what are the next steps for nem?

[Tompa]

So what are the next steps for nem?

What would you like them to be? 
If you haven't yet, come join us and propose projects, ideas etc. and help us make NEM something never before seen in the history of men! :-D


I believe that the first next step now is the publishing of the whitepaper.
Hopefully shortly after we are going to see mobile app.
Continuous strenghtening of the network, nodes etc.
Continuous refinement and adding of the features line n-x multisig, asset exchange etc.

Remember that by each day that NEM network and security isn't breached it gives NEM project validity.

I see Marketing is not in this list, and it should be #1 IMHO. #2 is product, things you can actually use NEM for. the AE is a great idea but I feel it has been accomplished quite well with other coins such as NXT so we should not make it our flagship product. I believe an open bazaar, charity work (which will assist with marketing) and the mobile app are important. As well as adoption of use for established markets.

I personally am a huge charity/volunteer nerd. I challenge myself each year to 100 hours of service, and each hour represents 5$. Each time I give $5 to charity or complete and hour of volunteer work I deduct an hour. ($50 would equal 10 hours deducted, etc...) And if there is a deficit at the end of the year I must pay that deficit to a charity. (If I have 50 hours remaining January 1st, I owe $250 dollars...)

I reached out to a developer to create an app (Charity Track/Calculator) where you could enter your own hours goal, and your own amount per hour (so you go do 25 cents per hour of your goal or as high as you want, in my instance $5...) And each time you donated to charity or did some volunteer work you could share it on social media (Such as Facebook app connection) "I donated/Volunteered at XXXX today click here to see how to contribute" or something of that nature.

You could track your goal (similar to my fitnesspal, only this would track volunteer hours/charity donations) and you could see if you have a deficit/surplus by your personal chosen date. And if you owed you could pay your deficit in BTC/XEM/DOGE/LTC or whatever currency you chose to a central system that would dispense it to the charity of your choosing.

I am not typing this out as a pitch but as a point that I think we need something innovative, something outside the box, something no one will see coming and hit it hard! And actually M A R K E T     I T !

We are currently taking the "We descended from giants" and building on old ideas approach which can work, but lets not be afraid to slay a few dark lair creatures and create something new as well. We are the New Economy Movement not the Improved Economy Movement.

Probably not, but there is a difference between NXT and NEM. Nem has an Eigentrust system built in to the core.
This means that it is possible to have a P2P generated ranking system.
Like Ebay has. Which would reduce the number of thieves crooks and scammers.

[nembugs]

Interesting! XEM on coinmarketcap is 23rd by both volume and cap.

[asdlolciterquit]

just a question: everyone i have to re-start my NEM client i have to re-import my account address?

Thx!

any help?

I'm using Yahoo, but someone from the Helpdesk on http://support.ournem.com managed to get me verified.

As someone else also said before Nem is also my last hope in crypto as I lost a couple of thousand dollars in crypto. I've downloaded the Nem wallet and it really looks good and user friendly.

Im glad you were fixed up. :-)

Opinions vary and you'd expect me to say so, but I also believe that right now NEM is the best hope (only real hope) for crypto.

+1

What would you like to see NEM do?

NEM - starts with you.

Really. Make a good enough case and the devs will build it.  They are very open-minded, flexible and have a pretty good ear for the communty's voice. Having many times switched directions from community feedback.

[choochimil]

What is the latest on clearing sock puppet accused stakes?

[MrPortMan]

XEM will one of cryptocurrencies Liberland

[pabloangello]

XEM will one of cryptocurrencies Liberland

'one of'? I though they choose only one currency.

1.
It worries me that many people have their nem's parked at Poloniex. One think that I've learned is that can never trust anyone in crypto even if you know their real ID and it's a trustworthy person.
What I would love to see a decentralized (p2p) exchange so that 3rd party exchanges are no longer needed.

2.
There will be plenty of unclaimed stakes left. Can this amount be divided into smaller stakes and issues to the newly accepted citizens of Liberland for free.

3.
I saw that some people weren't interested because of the price and volume and they felt that we were spamming the Liberland FB page. We don't necessary have to downplay Bitcoin. Is there a way to collaborate with Bitcoin and make sure Bitcoin and Nem complement each other?

4. Nem and Xem are confusing terms. Can Xem be changed into Nem?

[nickelback65]

I totally agree with #4. 

Let's ditch XEM for NEM!

[mikelitoris]

crypto currencies need to be as portable as cash, otherwise it cannot be effective to show people how versatile and easy to use they are if you need to lug around a laptop, very few coins have decent mobile features.

i look forward to seeing what nem comes up with
