My guess is you were typing that post about the same time I was typing mine which really places you in a disadvantage. See I have first hand experience of actually gaining from James assets along with other non-James assets in the NXT exchange. You can look at the trade history of all of James asset and see that they have all either double, sometimes triple, in price. MGW is an example in that it was 3 nxt per asset when I purchased it and as of right now it sits at 9 per asset. MGW is a functional service that many people use and it's still in beta. Once out of beta dividends will be payed out to asset holders. The dividend payout will be quite low, by design, and so I feel that anything above 20 nxt per asset is a bit much for now.

Now with that said, you have your opinion and I will honor it. Though the price of NXT has come down the overall gain from the asset exchange has more than made up for it. If anything I actually enjoy the low NXT price because it's been cheaper to purchase a few assets like Nxttycoin and watch the value go up by a factor of five.
