About NEM

This popular cryptocurrency was created in 2015, as a fork of the well-known NXT crypto. It is operated by the NEM.io foundation in Singapore and was redesigned from NXT to be faster and more scalable. NEM also has its own wallet, the Nano wallet, a cross-platform lite wallet written in JavaScript.

The NEM Symbol public blockchain was launched in March 2021, to power and connect businesses with the blockchain. The goal is to make a system that is interoperable and easy to use.

Unlike other cryptocurrencies that use systems called Proof of Work, or Proof of Stake, NEM is based on a system it calls Proof of Importance. This is a technical change that the network made to reduce the amount of computing power it requires, addressing one of the major criticisms against many of the earlier cryptocurrencies.
