I love these words, as a notoric hater of something which made 73 people rich and thousands of sheeps buying for oppressive price from the trust...

NXT can make popular by community and not hated only one thing, just start a secondary IPO and spread up the coins into the whole community. Just like NEM - make a thread, let people pay some coins (not too many), let it run for few weeks and the divide the NXTs between everyone who has take a part in an IPO. And some amount give just for free for everybody, not too much stuff but it will make you very popular not hated like now - e. g. 220 mil. IPO, 20.000 attendants who paid some BTC, so everyone will get 10000NXT and the 20 millions divide to everyone even who has not paid, e. g. 100NXT per person . Some NXT you can save for promoting the coin (just by bribing with NXT), some NXT may be used for charity and marketing. It will make NXT popular and community will not cry that it makes NXT inflationary, i personally have no problem to give some devaluation for good purposes like charity or marketing.
All 73 NXTers have now enough BTCs from the hell expensive NXTs so i dont see a problem. Yes it will probably shoot down the price. However noobs who have bought for oppresive prices dont deserve anything else.

But this scenario will happen even if NXTers will not do that - just when the price goes down and NXT will fade away NXTers will not have any other solution how to save the project.
