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

[XbladeX]

i wanted update servers but https://forum.ournem.com is down.

THere were guides how setup VPS for NEM i have used them,
without those guides (*rather scripts i am done ) that 0.6.31 will stay till free amazon time is over.
it is easy to change *31 to *43 but clear guide is not avaible right now so i gave up till forum is up again.

or you canpaste me few command lines how easy update it by command line (like for noob)

I have just upgraded my NIS server and I am having difficulty to resume harvesting.

What is the best way to configure NIS to auto boot a node and auto harvest using a remote account?

When I add my remote account to the NIS config file: NIS doesn't work properly and exits in few seconds. Probably cause my remote account is not known to the network?

That indeed probably means the account is unknown. When upgrading, did you create a new wallet and import your main account? It that is the case, a new delegated (= remote) account was created and thus you must deactivate delegated harvesting and after 6 hours activate it again.

I have remove my remote account from the NIS settings and replaced it with another account the is known to the network. Everything went fine and NIS booted successfully. However my main account failed to start harvesting. Using the NCC I can see that remote harvesting is active and I have an option to start harvesting. This is weird cause in the past 4 months my account use to be automatically harvesting all the time. Now that I've just upgraded to the latest version my account stopped harvesting and whenever I try to start harvesting I get an error.

If you activated auto harvesting on startup then the boot account is used for harvesting. Unless you increased the max harvester limit in the configuration only one account can harvest and thus you get an error when trying to harvest with the main account.

NEM is the best designed blockchain platform in existence.  


NEM is a long term investment for me.  Every time I look at GitHub, I always see some new contribution in the past hours and they've never failed me.  NEM has regular updates.  M of N multisig just came out.  Mosaics will be next.  There are also several ecosystem initiatives like CryptoApex, PhotoMead and Makoto's remittance service.   NEM will be a longterm winner.

I honestly don't care if the current price slips or capitalization drops: it just means I'll buy more later.  


NEM is currently a bad terrible short term investment: see reasons below

*  The best short term investments recruited Bitcoin insiders, with connections to capital and cryptomedia, like Pietilä and Buterin.
*  Short term investments add PoW, to appeal to the miners.
*  Short term investments get added to margin trading and lending on Poloniex.  It's easy to buy high and pump & dump when you are trading with other people's money.  

NEM did 0/3.  NXT and BTS did 1/3 with Poloniex.

  If we got NEM added to margin trading and lending on Poloniex then capitalization and volume would shoot up but this would only benefit short term investors who would dump the following week(s).   Nor is it necessary as Makoto has venture funding.


Roger Ver is a well publicized successful investor in Bitcoin and yet he only ever had 0.1% to 0.2% of the eventual 21 million Bitcoins in circulation.  You can buy 0.1% of NEM for only 4 BTC and 0.2% for 8 BTC.  4 BTC and 8 BTC is $1000 - $2000.  

To buy the same percentages in the other 2.0 projects is $10,000 - $20,000 (NXT and BTS) and $150,000 - $300,000 (ETH).  These are approximations and not exact numbers   Only thing cheaper than XEM is maybe Qora, Crypti and NODE and I already own at least 0.1% of those three projects.

I definitely agree with your points 1 and 2 and are things we need to work on more.  But adding Polo margin trading on XEM might not be possible because we don't have the volume for Polo to add us, but even if they did it could be very dangerous.  As you it would make it a lot easier to pump and dump XEM, but that isn't actually something that we really want to do right now.  While it sucks that we aren't all super rich this week or this month, there is a lot of interesting tech going on with NEM that can add value in future the real way and not via a pump.  Also more times than not margin trades bring more serious dumps then they do pumps.  The example of Bitfinix having a flash crash just a couple of days ago is an example.  that was totally because of their margin trading, and this has happened many times in Bitcoin because of margins, yet we don't really every see any 17% boosts.  In crypto it is proving much easier for people to make money off of shorting and instigating dumps, than it is raising marketcaps.

jabo38, BloodyRookie thank you so much for your replies on my questions. I have solved the problem by adding my remote account private key, enable auto harvesting at boot = true, adding my remote account and main account public address in the allowed addresses "for harvesting". It works fine. Thanks again.

nice analysis

"Long Term" investor sounds much better than "Bagholder." But seriously we are going two years in and we see nothing but failing value. I see the rest of the market shooting past NEM and the cobwebs starting to show. Prove me wrong, I beg you. Not with words, with results.

[tyz]

Really good analysis. it's similar to my thinking about NEM. it is a longterm investment.

[Nortan12rx]

at the first calling of people on the web site nem.io it seems to them that NEM is to SCAM. that isn't present. everything is empty. there is a desire at once to leave from the web site nem.io. if you look for low volume problem that it is necessary to look for it on the web site nem.io. the first page is the person NEM! you have to issue well the first page having told there most in detail about all best NEM functions. also don't forget to specify total of coins as to investors it is very important. issue properly the first homepage, it at you now empty, and the people will start reaching itself for NEM when compares NEM to Ethereum and will choose that that at the price is cheaper and more favorable.

[BloodyRookie]

What are you talking about, nem.io is not empty 

[Nortan12rx]

What are you talking about, nem.io is not empty 

open other web sites and you will see a difference as there at them the first homepage is issued and as it is issued at NEM.

https://www.stellar.org
https://ethereum.org


unless it isn't visible as there at them the first homepage is filled with the description of useful functions and NEM on the first homepage don't have anything.

where the description of that that is multi-signatures?
where about that that NEM possesses innovative and best block chain?

where all that has to be as descriptions and advantages shown on pictures in comparison with other block chain crypto platforms?

therefore also the potential investor going to the homepage NEM sees anything and leaves. therefore he also considers NEM a usual simple coin as on the homepage to it all essence doesn't reveal at once. for search of an essence it is necessary to spend an extra time and to go in I undressed the blog. on it the potential investor has no time and without having taken away any advantages on the homepage he leaves on farther from NEM.

not surprisingly why the price of XEM constantly falls and all investors consider XEM a dead coin. notice - a coin. i.e. they don't even know what is it because as the same Stellar and Ethereum has no detailed description in pictures that such NEM and in what its advantage in comparison with other block chain crypto platforms of new generation.

Literally the first thing you see on the website is a video explaining NEM. If people are still intersted after that they can find pretty much everything on that website (except links to the community which has been debated).

If you got clear, concrete suggestions please go ahead and make them.

A coin that doesn't happen to fit in with the saturated status quo of alts certainly doesn't make it a failure.

Best analysis was described earlier. If you're looking for short term pumps and dumps, you shouldn't be here; this is what PoW coins are for and those who hold the majority of the mining power.

[jabo38]

I think our website could be better.  I think city landscape couple be thinner like on the blog, then underneath it an "about NEM" section where we give some major highlights.  Maybe something where you drag a mouse over something and it pops out more with a better explanation.  There are lots and lots of new and exciting things in NEM that could be explained in the about section.  Then go with the video and the info on how to get the wallet and such like it is now.  

Then we need more parts of our website like a business solutions/contact us page. Here we would explain some examples of how NEM is being used as new tech to help people do things that haven't been done before.  And then some information on how to contact us for further information.  

Then I would like to see the FAQ updated better.  

Those are my top three wish list for the website.  

I also believe we definitely need to avoid a pump and dump, but that these touches would help us to put a little bit of a more clear and better image out there.  

As it is I am pretty happy with the website though.  Saul has been the only one that has stepped up to help us out and has done a good job.  He has also been working hard on getting the forum merged.  The forum right now is the main priority with websites so once that is done we could look back at nem.io.  But right now I think it is like 80% of the way there.  Just a few more touches to finish it out.  

[JBC]

1. Remove the video.  People who worked on it will probably feel insulted but sometimes you have to put aside your ego.  Most crypto videos only get 100s or 1000s of views.  This is even true for the vast majority of Ethereum and other projects.  Having a video on the front page is probably causing more people to quit than to consider NEM.

The most viewed Bitcoin clip only has 6.5 million views after 4 years; when let’s play streamers, pranksters and people playing with dolls can get more views in a week on YouTube.   Conclusion: videos are a waste of time unless it's a product placement.

2.  Answer the 5 Ws.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Ws

Ethereum did this well:

What is Ethereum?

Ethereum is a decentralized platform that runs smart contracts: applications that run exactly as programmed without any possibility of downtime, censorship, fraud or third party interference.

Ethereum is how the Internet was supposed to work.

Ethereum was crowdfunded during August 2014 by fans all around the world. It is developed by ETHDEV with contributions from great minds across the globe.

Ethereum on their frontpage does the Five W's

Who: EthDEV
What: Decentralized Platform
Where: Around the world / Internet
When: August 2014
Why: To make applications run better.

Can you brainstorm a list of the 5'Ws for NEM?


3. Obfuscate or hide the buy option.  Asking for money at the front door  = scam on most people's radar.  Replace it with a button called: "Get XEM" which links to another page, where the first options are non-purchasing (like run a NODE, bounties, et cetera) and the purchase option can be displayed at the end.

4.  List all the ecosystem initiatives, projects and companies you can think of.  Even the smallest ones.
