1 factor bout NeM we hate most is that its supported by Japanese like the makotto dev guy. I mean come on all dem worlds countries already have intense issues with the stubbornness + hardcore arrogance of the japanese warcrime government.  do we really want something like that in crypto?
  NO WE DONT.   utopianfuture/taunsew was/is asian-american origin guy.  but not japanese as our analysis' can tell.  he obviously is a financial genious but makoto is a dreamer. he think NEM will surpass Bitcoin (LOLOLOL) come on how can u fuck ur investors like that?  just imagine some1 believes yo duud!

Here is the big announcement - the 1oz 9999 pure gold and 999 pure silver bullion coin sale is on!
Details are all on http://altnemo.com

This is a HUGE step for NEM because with these coins:

- We will create a way for people to have a physical, tangible connection to NEM
- We can raise money for mobile apps and a fast trading exchange incorporating fiat
- In exchange for raising capital to fund the NEM ecosystem, we will give people stunningly beautiful coins, to be minted at the Perth Mint in 9999 pure gold and 999 pure silver bullion. Each coin will come with a NEM cold wallet (100 NEM for silver, 1000 NEM for gold), giving people both a physical and digital store of value.

Right now gold and silver prices are at incredible lows, so we hope that these coins can grow in value, as we work together to create the new economy.

Given that the coins are of the highest proof quality, to be minted at one of the best mints in the world, and that we are doing very limited quantities (at most only a few thousand silver and few hundred gold), you would expect each coin to cost quite a lot, given that international shipping and insurance is also required. With the goal of making money (this is a crowd sale to fund the NEM epic projects, after all), you would maybe expect a current price of 10,000 NXT per silver coin, once shipping is taken into account.

However, by working with a company in Singapore to help with logistics, we are getting the price down to less than 5,000 NXT per silver coin--this includes a NEM cold wallet and globally insured shipping!

In addition, people who buy these coins will get exclusive access to new information and preliminary versions of our projects, along with other exclusive benefits that we legally cannot name at this time!

Right now you can buy these coins on the NXT Asset Exchange as NEMsilver (Asset ID: 13343565057420780630) and NEMgold (Asset ID: 4280260188071460715). Once you buy the assets, you can redeem them for coins by following the instructions on http://altnemo.com/#buy. Prices for NEMsilver and NEMgold will vary a little as NXT fluctuates with respect to the USD, but currently NEMsilver is around 5,000 NXT and NEMgold is around 80,000 NXT.

Please support NEM and buy NEMsilver and NEMgold. This is a great chance to turn crypto into a physical asset and also help to build a better world.

the pitch black sky will open and heavy will it rain gimres makotos and pet masters from the sky when the day Zero comes and eliminates the IP0 scams like NeM !

Well it is really petty when you think about it. Its just that people are not reading the big fonts. T&C 20 clearly says:


and section 19 lists out the risk. While some of them are given like exchange risks, cheap forks, lower adoption, regulation etc are acceptable. This is the one which people should really think about:

Virtually they are saying we are free to spend your money, because of the marketing blitz they did. Only in crypto world such stupidity can go without being scrutinized in detail.

PS: I am a fan of Mithun da

I think it's a good idea. Wifi router names, number stickers, a tag on a business cars or website. I think we all need to do little things to help.

A Chinese guy worked with me on the logo design and write-up. There are similar symbols in India, China, and Korea, etc, so I don't think it is a problem.

There are no numbers in the logo and we are not against any religion, so don't worry so much

EDIT: updated with latest draft

dont know about you guys. but this is the best damn thing ever.

How do I change the dir where nix.runNis.sh and nix.runNcc.sh are?  what should I click on or type?

I like Loi's designs and have a lot of respect for him as a designer/UX guy. He's really good.

I like the text in this logo, but the box doesn't really seem to mean anything to me or represent a symbol relating to an economy based on financial freedom, decentralization, and equality of opportunity.

So we went back and thought about what does NEM mean and what kind of new economy we want to build. We want an economy where the three ideals of NEM are held together in perfect balance. An economy united in solidarity by those three ideals. From that I proposed using the tomoe as a base symbol, and then trying to build from there. Tomoe is an ancient symbol, which rather than being a bad thing, I believe this is really good for us; symbols like this resonate deeply with humans, which is why they have been around for so long. Offset boxes/triangles don't really resonate, in my opinion (there is a place for them, just not as a fit for the symbology of NEM).

Loi: You are a great designer and we all love you. We wish you would be more active in our movement and help us create a new economy based on financial freedom, decentralization, and equality of opportunity. I think Tomoe represents these ideals. Do you think you could try to (it doesn't have to be today or this week, just when you have the time) use tomoe as a base for a logo and build something? One of the comments that repeatedly came up in the logo committee was that rather than just using text (i.e., NEM) as a base for a logo, it might be better to use something else. Therefore, I propose using tomoe as the base (it is okay to have something like NEW ECONOMY MOVEMENT underneath or something), rather than text; not everyone speaks english or uses latin characters, so I would prefer to not have text be a main part of a logo/symbol.

For now, some people like the logo, some people don't, but let's keep the discussion productive and try to reach a consensus as a community as to what represents our movement and try to focus the design from there. I think tomoe (3 parts united in balance) is the way to go, though there are many variations we can do with that.

Guys (and our few female nemsters--we need more of you!), enjoy the alpha. The is just the beginning!

This will indicate a price for a single NEM Coin.
