NEM is cheap crypto currency? You are the first person that said this. NEM made literally more than 100x. Dude what are you smoking?
We can discuss about is NEM better than ETH technologically but you can't say NEM is cheap. Look at its graphic and say it again.
Cheap stands here not for the price of the coin (I know it was originally given out for free), but for the price of transactions and smart contracts, which make the real value for cryptocurrencies. I don't deny that ETH developed the industry and so on and so forth. However, it has already gone beyond the limit of reasonable pricing and should be replaced by a more competitive currency. And I still believe that NEM is one of the best options on the crypto market
