Does anyone else believe in a great future for NEM (XEM) project? What event/new can affect the attraction of new investors?
NEM has always stayed within the top 30 coins for several years, although there has been almost no progress. With Symbol comes a big upgrade and the development and marketing are professionalized. That's why I think that Symbol (aka NEM 2.0) has a bright future ahead if they don't make big mistakes.
In my opinion awareness of the technology and features within NEM (NIS1) were / is very low.
For years NEM technology and features were ahead of time but the market did not picked it up.
As you can see lately some projects were implementing features that NEM had already for 2 ,3 years
and that was big news. As you may know when .eth decentralized domain system was implemented
all the crypto media where full of the new regarding this.
When factom project implemented apostille for notarization of
documents the news were talking about that.
Nobody knows that all this features were possible in NEM already
2 years before that other projects even started implementing this features.
It would be really sad that such a technological masterpiece just get lost and dies
like Qora and NXT which also have been technologically ahead of time.
I hope that open sourcing the project will bring more developers and users to it
and that awareness of NEM (NIS1) will rise even after symbol release.
I agree with your arguments, and add on my own ...
Given the positioning of Symbol as a platform for a REAL business (and this is very close to reality), the platform must have a set of libraries for the most popular development languages in order to enable developers to SIMPLY and QUICKLY implement this technology and solutions into the business processes of their companies or customers ... If most other cryptocurrencies are essentially projects of the "cryptocurrency for the sake of cryptocurrency" level, then Symbol is positioned as a "blockchain technology for real tasks of real business", and this requires SIMPLE and affordable mechanisms for "connecting" technology by customers to their systems
