I'm not sure where you get your information, but the way that you've worded your comment makes me doubt your sources.
Bytemaster,I've heard that Nubits is try to enforce the NBT-PPC pair,use PPC to build buy wall and yet still maintain 1NBT=1USD value.
It's true that the automated trading bots do support NBT-to-coin markets (NBT/BTC, NBT/PPC). The exchange rates fluctate very frequently in response to changes in the BTC/USD and PPC/USD markets. As is the case on most exchanges (with a few notable exceptions) crypto/fiat pair buy-side liquidity is for all intents and purposes, abysmal. Providing access to a stable value unit is our end-goal, so while it's more complex, supporting NBT/crypto markets is part of that strategy. Attempting to maintain the 1 NBT to 1 USD (in crypto equivielent) is a side effect of the primary goal of NuBits, providing a stable, transactional currency.
And I've heard they are trying to be the PPC whale themselves,print more NBT to buy more PPC,so they can control the price of PPC and make a profit for the Nubits system.During this process,they'll make the trading volume of NBT larger to attract new exchanges to enlist.
(Because of the relations between Nubits and PPC,convince people trade PPC for Nubits would be easy)
I've never heard anyone on the team--seriously, or even in jest--discuss market making to end up as a (or
the) "PPC whale." We've got enough things to keep us busy post-release, and attempting to wrest some form of control over the peercoin markets isn't on the list.
The trading logic that was responsible for NuBot's wall collisions was resolved a week ago (discuss.nubits.com/t/nubot-progress-reports/338/7), and as far as we can tell, all volume since then has been organic. We've noticed a few traders (at least two, possibly three or more) attempting to profit from price fluctations, but that's outside of our control and is something that is going to happen. These types of trades happen all over the place, in every market, so the NBT/BTC and NBT/PPC markets are no exception. I expect that a portion of the day-to-day BitsharesX volume is generated from the same types of trades.
If exchanges want to list NBT, it is their perogative. Having a large number of exchanges support NBT, today, doesn't actually benefit us much. It takes time to write wrappers for the automated trading bot so that it can work with different exchanges' APIs, and then it means having a custodian get set up to support one or more markets there. Besides, having a coin on an exchange is only the first step -- there are lots of exchanges that host lots of coins' trading pairs that aren't going to amount to anything without a focus on the fundamentals that make it an attractive transactional currency or asset.

While I'll admit that I do find a dark humor in the rumor mongering I read, the comments of yours that I've come across more often than not lack any evidence to support your criticisms. I guess that's your right, and I'm not here to try to "convert" you to any viewpoint, but I personally find it hard to take your critiques seriously when they lack substance or appear to be only driven by blind emotion.
I'm more than happy to have future discussions about BitsharesX, Nu, or cryptoassets in general, if they are useful to the larger community. My responses here may be reactive, in the context of this or another Nu-related threads, but ultimately I'm not here to shill for Nu. Hopefully my postings over time will make that clear. I'm equally interested in what the Bitshares team and community are doing because I see a huge number of interesting initiatives and opportunities.
