What happens if you don't forge a cent with a big wallet? They laugh. Maybe play the "it's not about mining/forging" card and watch how the crowd reacts.
Mining does not equal forging. I could be pool mining some pump and dump alt right now, but it is not even worth the time to compete with the mindless mining masses. Instead I am forging on the Nxt network, helping secure the Nxt network.
Also, it took a few minutes to download, sync, and verify the entire Nxt blockchain. Try doing that with the bloated 16GB Bitcoin blockchain.
The main features of the Nxt cryptocurrency ecosystem should be emphasized with the Raspi display. Generate Authentication Tokens, Demonstrate the Asset Exchange System, Send an Arbitrary Message, Explain Transparent Forging, etc.
The Nxt raspi is not a Mining Rig. "But it also functions as a space heater the miners claim! I heat my home with it!"
The Nxt network is sustainable, and future proof. No other cryptocurrency is. Forget about trying to appeal to the miners with their space heater mentality. Nxt has a lean code base, fast transactions times, is scalable, and most importantly; the Nxt cryptocurrency is a vibrant and rapidly developing community.
