Hi there, long time Nimiq fan here and same for BAT which I saw mentioned. I've had varied interest in both at pretty much all stages of the project (just an idea, beta, main launch, now) and think they're both great projects. What I see in both projects is an extremely exciting team, BAT due to having Brendan Eich behind it and NIM due to the incredibly dedicated team that's created it from the ground up.
I completely agree, the Nimiq team has been putting out big release after big release with smaller events constantly in between for the past 6 to 8 months! If this acceleration continues, 2019 will be an exciting year!
I really don't know if this coin will grow, maybe will have some grow only on bull run with this high supply i think is hard to have high price, but maybe some potential is if team behind it continue development.
I think this is the big problem for the project, lack supporting community and it will be very hard for a project to gain public adoption in this space without huge community support and another thing here is that project like this can easily be forked and improve upon and another team will take credit for the ground work
I think Nimiq has a really solid community behind it, and while it's not giant it's definitely not small. What I like most about Nimiq's community is that it's very active and the team is constantly interacting with us to make sure Nimiq is going down a path the community can agree with. Of course forks can happen, and it's been mentioned in Nimiq chat channels at pivotal events, but any project can be forked and improved upon which is the whole point of open source projects. What matters isn't the idea but the execution, and the Nimiq team has both down really well. Any team that wanted to fork and improve Nimiq could try, but there'd need to be some real motivation behind it for them to outpace the rate at which the Nimiq team is improving the project.
