The marketing pitch the NxT community is driving at which is focused on using NxT as a financial platform to create these "crypto-assets" vs other approaches you can take which focus on merchant adoption with real businesses.

Faulty generalization.
Keep in mind that it's a decentralized community


Anyway, the biggest Nxt marketing campaign does not really focus on what you are saying:

Accurate generalization. (Of course its a generalization and doesn't represent all efforts) Look at the marketing of most of its proponents and most websites for NxT. I am simply discussing what is being represented and pitched.

Finding lists and directories of NxT asset scams is trivial and abundant. Finding comprehensive lists of real merchants accepting NxT is a difficult task indeed. I understand it is a difficult task to undertake... but NxT investors who own businesses could at least accept the coin as a show of solidarity. Are there are least 50 people in your community who own their own legitimate business? If not this is a troubling sign of lack of adoption.

I don't see much discussion of focusing on real merchant adoption within the tennessee-project-fundraiser. Appears to be akin to the creation of a "Bitcoin Foundation" or coincenter.org to pitch Nxt.... but perhaps in time they will rewrite their marketing material to focus on real merchants instead of crypto-equity scams. Just some marketing advice , take it or leave it.
