At the moment the price of XEM is really pure speculation but that was no different from NEMstake from June 2014 to March 2015. . I think NEM's mobile client is coming out in a week or weeks (...months?) but, as awesome it could end up being, I don't think it by itself will send XEM into the stratosphere.. because there's already some alts with mobile clients and it's not really a huge wow factor.

I own both NXT and NEM on the theory that ONE of them will do something right.

Is it too hard to understand that building toys for 50,000 crypto hobbyists is a Losing Game?

You have to target specific business niches that can benefit from a decentralized platform...
Like torrents, VPNs, hidden hosting, etc.

Torrent sites are dropping like flies...
Instead of building another freaking "market" so 17 yo can sell t-shirts...
Build a turnkey toolbox for hosting a torrent site...
There is endless open source code for this... tap into a specific $100 million business.

You'll need some simple p2p storage for web sites and back end...
But the first Gen 2.0 platform to host torrent sites anon will jump into the Top 3 market cap.

NEM is a platform and XEM is the currency to support the network. If someone wants to create their torrent thing then they could go with NEM, NXT platform or really a huge list of options to choose from. There's a lot of coins with fairly open ecosystems and yet the person, you described, hasn't arrived into crypto to do this.

BTW - I would like to hear your model about a 2.0 / 3.0 platform hosting torrents without it being premium (pay to play) content. A lot of online activity follows the radio model: where the responsibility to pay is shifted onto advertisers willing to pay a premium for product placement and that is how people get their free content.
