Now there are a lot of analytical articles about the fact that NEM will become a real competitor for ETH. I think that makes sense. In a few years NEM will become a very strong platform if the project will also develop rapidly and sign contracts with well-known companies.
As one who's actually attempted to *use* the ETH platform, I can tell you NEM is much easier. It won't be long before others catch on. ETH seems to have better name recognition at this point, but NEM is starting to catch up on that too.
Thats probably why venezuela decided to go with NEM lol

A fact that everyone ought to be ashamed of, not celebrating.
I dont care who uses NEM, whether or not it be China, North Korea or Russia, the NEM platform is available for everyone to use free of any censorship.
besides if they chose NEM because its easy to use, that says alot doesnt it?
So its the tool of choice for corrupt authoritarians desperately trying to keep power. Cool!!!!!!! Lets boast about that!!!!!
oh boy, someone needs to do some research on what the cause of the Venezuelan hyperinflation was, it was along the lines of what happened to Zimbabwe.
Look into it, then you will understand what caused this hyperinflation of their economies and why they seek alternative methods of currency.
Just remember, these 2 countries posed no threat to the world before hyperinflation and even after.
