I can't remember if I posted on the NEM thread early enough to have a stake from posting or not, and now i can't find the thread!

how do I know if I have a stake?

Find the stakeholder spreadsheet in gdocs and search through it for your btt account.
I speak for myself and only myself.

hello everyone,

just came across this thread and would like to just bring it back to life for a moment so i can let you guys know that nem is in the final stages of stake redemption, beta has been out and publicly tested for months, multisig will be ready for launch and if you have a stake you are not too late to claim(by claim i mean send in a nem address so you can receive your coins, the genesis block hasnt been launched yet). thousands already have claimed. drop by and see how things are going. :) we are still very much alive!
have a link?

Utopianfuture (REMBER THAT NAME!) listened to a request from the community: to have stakes tradable before release. So that any dumpers could cash out and any interested people could get in even after registrations closed.
He then gave the option for stakes be traded on the NXT AE, on MSC and on Counterparty. With a minimum of 100 people interested in any of the above listed before he'd enable trading. NXT AE was the winner.

The 1000 tokens were his estimate of how much would be needed to satisfy the communities' request. As of now 400 or so have been transferred so it seems he was ok with that estimate.

AGS could be listed in the same fashion on both Counterparty or the NXT Asset exchange. But asking I3 to allow that is probably like asking the Pope for permission to shoot a porn gig inside the Sistine Chapel.

I'll remember that name now...Luckily I bought some @18k NXT and sold @25k NXT two days afterwards...I don't think i will take this bet any time soon again...

what is the problem there? he created sock puppet accounts and claimed more NEMs? And why this is a problem? Everybody is supposed to have only 1 NEM stake? If so, how come on NXT AE people are trading more than 1 stake?

Or it is the question of morality that he was chasing sock puppet accounts and in fact he has created some?

I see the biggest problem in preaching one thing and doing the exact opposite
Lack of arbitrage is the problem, isn't it. And this 'should' solves it.

and more importantly...how low do you think NEM stake will fall now?

I failed in my personal conduct and not adhere to the rules I set myself. If you are familiar with American politics, now I have the Eliot Spitzer or Anthony Weiner problem.

I had a few sockpuppet accounts but I have no intention of cashing out any of them. I did not write down the sock accounts (using an arbitrary password that I can't remember) neither and plan to donate the fees for the development fund. I created sock accounts to keep the thread at a high demand when we have few supporters. Ghosthouse is the only account I kept using more so that I can use it sometimes to cheer up NEM threads.

It is what it is. I apologize to my core team members, to all NEM supporting developers and helpers for this issue. I will step down from now on.

The task of maintaining NEM stakeholder list will be transfered to Patmast3r. He has been sharing the access to the file with me for quite sometimes. NEMtoken account will be passed to Pastmast3r as well.

NEM Twitter account will be transfered to Makoto and he could pass on to the most suitable person.

NEM development fund accounts will be fully transfered to Jaguar0625, Gimre and Thies1965.

Ournem website will be transfered to the core team as well.

Update and Discussion and Refunds threads will be closed after new threads with similar functions can be made up.

All press contacts will be passed to the core team so that they can find an appropriate person for the job.

I resign from all leading function within NEM and this will be the last post of UtopianFuture.

What can I say – Good that Bitshares does not distribute ownership based on forum accounts…

PPC is obviously a better coin than bitcoin. But how on earth they came up with the name peerpeer coin? The could have just called it p2pcoin...

actually they did.

originally it was p2pcoin. thats how the symbol ended up being PPC

but people ended up finding it easier to shorten to just ppcoin.

then last year the community decided that ppcoin is silly, and opted to rebrand it to peercoin.

so now it's peercoin, but like how Bitshares-PTS ended up with PTS from originally being protoshares, they ended up keeping the original symbol.

Yea he did and it is very unfortunate.  Definitely a blackeye on NEM but it won't kill it.  It is the fact that apparently he had sock puppet accounts for extra stakes that is worrisome, not
that he had an account to troll/criticize the dev of another coin for being a phoney. 


My apologies for missing sarcasm.  Read it as a NXTer taunt. ;)  Even with emoticons we lose meanings.
No worries  :D

And yeah, sock puppet accounts is much worse than his trolling in a simcoin thread.

OK, so it started as an NXT clone and then devs changed their mind  and decided develop their own coin.

lol scam  :P
Yea, guys who go through 3000 line spreadsheets to remove sock puppets via taint analysis / board activity are creating a scam.  At that point they already had most of the money. 

My guess is they realized how flawed using NXT code would be, so they changed course.  Why would that equate scam ?

The funniest thing is seeing NXT's asset exchange and the asset with the most volume BY FAR is an up and coming coin yet to be released.  LOOL at the FUD being flung about.
Uhm, actually i used "lol scam  :P" in a sarcastic way. Anyway, utopianfuture just messed up badly.
