NXT ticked me off by being closed source.
NXT has been open source for a long time now.
Nxt never was really closed source for those who wanted to look, the original java files were unobfuscated code and could be decompiled.
The point was they went out of their way to try and hide.
I hope NEM follows a clear transparent path.
If Nem released the source code immediately, they would be cloned a few dozen times within a week. Maybe someone will launch it even before Nem is officially launched if the source code is released during alpha/beta.
it's bad idea to release the code before Nem is at least established as unique new crypto
