I foretold this whole situation starting back in February about Catapult being a dud market-wise and that NEM was headed for serious trouble due to their complete invisibility with or without the Coincheck hack and the incredible mismanagement of that. Told you all that EOS was going to run circles around NEM (even though they really don't). Took lots of shit for it. Sorry to say I "told you so."
NEM straight up fucked themselves with their invisible approach. They're done. If you have no community, hype or marketing it is over.
I agree the 'ninja' shit stopped being an appealing idea a long, long time ago and it was not a clever move in the first place but it's also over now and efforts are being made. It doesn't need empty hype either. A little justified hype would certainly not have gone amiss.
Right now a lot of seeds are being planted with NEM. If they don't lead anywhere its days as a top ish coin could well be over for the foreseeable future, but it will be chugging away long after almost everything else that's around now is dust.
This pathetic lack of volume compared to the rest of the to 15 is really concerning to me. Am I the only one who feels this way?
It's always, always had a pathetic lack of volume until it violently doesn't for short periods of time. Everything pumps again eventually as long as it stays above ground.
