And see what? how they plan to copy ripple?

Lets see:

Ripple native functions (made 2 years ago): instant transactions, asset exchange, aliases, currency issuing, gateways, and most important and what nxt will have hard time copying financial highway (send any currency anyway, trade in any order book, and all that for incredibly small fees).

Nxt development: we want to make instant transactions, asset exchange, aliases, we want to make currency issuing, we want to make gateways.....

For a copy cat.....
