NEM is very much attached to BTC, this is because the easiest way to get XEM is via BTC.

Well, that’s all about to change once COMSA and Australian NEM dedicated exchange get up & running 
That’s when NEM will see plenty of action, trading volume and traction

Well, it seems like Bitcoin is slowly getting flushed in the toilet.
At the time when I wrote this article, 25th of August 2017, I specifically said about bitcoin that “I think Bitcoin is a remarkable coin but its years as the king of digital coins are counted as better technologies are rising due to the growing interest of the crowd in blockchain technology. Bitcoin already lost a fair share of the total market cap and now is below 50% because of that.”
People are moving into Bitcoin Cash but it’s just a market trend. My opinion is that when a coin like Bitcoin starts to fork multiple times, then one of the forks is cancelled, it gives the market the feeling that there is a civil war, which equals instability. I am glad to see that this day has come, when Bitcoin is being compromised as being the nr.1 coin. The crypto-currency community is more educated than a few years ago. With the spike of countless ICOs some more promising than others, people start to realize that crypto-currency does not equal Bitcoin, and there’s far more than that out-there.
As a NEM investor and enthusiast, I can only express my joy for this moment, considering the fact that NEM Catapult is about to launch on Mijin very soon, and for NEM public blockchain somewhere in thte 1st quarter next year.
We went through hell with the last couple of months but now, the ones who stood on their positions are about to harvest the rewards of planting the seeds.

IMHO bitcoin is here to stay and it’s only just beginning. This was a necessary and healthy dip, that most people expected after the 2x fork. Now that it’s canceled it happened sooner. With the bitcoin branding slowly gaining establishment support there is no way it’s being flushed in the toilet. Quite frankly and with all due respect, I think stating things like that shows either incredible bias or ignorance.
I do however hold a ton of XEM so I’d be happy to be proven wrong.
I have read it somewhere that private chain Catapult testing won’t be done until April, 2018. So your time estimate is a bit too optimistic.
Catapault beta was released on the private chain a week or so ago.
Not really. They are accepting businesses who want to do internal testing starting a week ago.
ok, yet I am a bit confused, you just contradicted yourself.
OK, so they are accepting only and no testing due till April 2018?
I was watching “Inside Nem”, and it was stated that 300 businesses on board.
Cheers
actually I am not too clear myself. Read the link below and see what you come up with. I did read something about releasing end of April after testing

Also in this post someone said “Catapult has not been released yet. Just the closed beta for the Mijin private chain has been announced.”
Yes that looks about right, it is released.
Catapault is to be released in stages, first stages apply to the private chain, Mijin, and
the public chain Nem some time in 2018 (heh but deadlines).
The guy on Redit in the link below must be referring to the public chain release.
Yet Catapault is not simply a one off release on the Nem block-chain, the first stage is implemented in Mijin.
Cheers, sorry mate I get your point. I am just not 100% sure myself.
Yet companies like Hitachi are using Nem, and even the Japanese government has an implementation of Nem for wild meat product tracking.
The first stage of Catapault may very well not get full testing to April 2018.
Yet the summary from the link says the Catapault 2.0 will be launched mid November after the customer validation program finishes.
quote from your article:
Tech Bureau will begin accepting applications for the β customer validation program today, and the 2.0 open source Catapult mijin blockchain will be launched when the validation program ends. The 2.0 Catapult engine will first be used in private blockchain, then applied to public blockchain NEM later in 2018.

I hope you are right sir, I’m quite new with the whole crypto thing but I think NEM is a good place to start investing in.
I am right, and in a couple of days I will release a full price prediction backed by detailed analysis in which I will compare the evolution of NEM vs Bitcoin, Ripple and Ethereum. I have already done the math and the numbers are more than exciting for us, holders of NEM. All I have to do is write the article and attach the charts which I personally made.

Hi how you getting on with those predictions as I am thinking of buying a chunk of NEM now ! Thanks Mark
What do you think the CME can influence the market next weeks? For sure BTC price is gonna be crazy but that can affect coins like NEM.
Anyway I believe NEM next year will be better, specially when Catapult is launched
Bitcoin goes down once Futures goes live. People will short-sell like hell to cash-in profits. Bitcoin will go almost 50% down and that’s a conservative prediction.
