The recasting feature of NTX coin seems very interesting. NTX is a Chinese branch of NXT.

RECASTING Feature: Prevents the inflation of the block chains and makes the anonymity of the coin untraceable.  Recycle some lost forever coins after a few                     rounds of recasting.

Will NEM include such features? If not, is it possible to add RECASTING feature to NEM?

I think it is a good feature which will definitely benefit NEM. Devs should consider to add this feature to NEM.

00:27 < Hap_> Anonymity is a fad.  Darkcoin isn't going up from use but rather people speculating on the preceived 'value' of
              anonymity.  I don't think the logic is particularly sound.  Almost nobody uses TOR or other anonymity measures.
              It's a very niche thing.
00:28 < Hap_> Great for pedophiles and drug dealers but that isn't the current crypto user or future user.
00:29 < Hap_> Nor is it proprietary.  If anonymity proves to be that important then everyone, even Doge, will rip it.
00:29 < Hap_> It's an one trick pony when coins specialize in anonymity.
