Funding’s Ripple Effect
As for where this newfound funding will be spent, Makoto reveals plans for a prototype system to snag some early users. Making real connections with users is the plan, not just chasing the almighty dollar signs of market cap increase.
“At the end of the day, solving a problem people have is more important than increasing the market cap.”
What’s on the Horizon?
So what lies ahead for NEM? According to Makoto, the next four months will be jam-packed with development and prototype testing. They aim to roll out a new project—PhotoMead—which hopes to blend the social media experience with e-commerce selling of images. It’s basically Instagram with a cool twist less influenced by influencers. Who knows? If it goes viral, NEM could be the superhero of blockchain for everyday users.
Challenges and Community Feedback
Every hero has its kryptonite, and for NEM, it’s been server node incentives. The dev team is actively addressing this through a high-speed node program. Community feedback has been invaluable, revealing just how integral user perspectives are in shaping the NEM landscape.
The Future is Bright
Looking back at the road from alpha testing to the live world, NEM has come a long way. What does the next year hold? With advanced features likely in tow, NEM expects to catch the eye of third-party industry partners exploring how NEM can ease their operational burdens.
Advice for Aspiring Cryptonauts
As a parting gift, Makoto offers sage advice for burgeoning crypto startups: “Use NEM. It’s fast, secure, and well-tested.” There you have it—if you’re looking to jump into blockchain, you might want to keep your eyes peeled at what NEM has cooking.
