<h2> Introduction </h2>
NEM is a blockchain platform that uses Smart Asset System to provide enterprise solutions - meaning that anyone can digitize assets and make them available to the public. Developers looking to build apps in the NEM blockchain don’t need to run any special software because all functionalities are available via APIs (can be used for desktop, web, and mobile apps). Finally, its important to point out that XEM is the cryptocurrency used to reward NEM miners/supporters.

<h2> NEM Structure </h2>
<h3> Addresses and Mosaics</h3>
- Addresses in NEM can be used as a digitization of any object- they can represent commodities,  real estate, or even documents.

- Mosaics can be seen as a token in any other common blockchain (like Ethereum). They represent identical assets such as votes, reward points, or currencies - When you create your own mosaic you may define some of its properties such as name, description, quantity, divisibility, and their method of transference.

<h3> Namespaces </h3>
- Namespaces are unique locations of particular assets on the blockchain - think of this as a domain name.
- Namespace owners need to pay 100 XEM to reserve this space on the blockchain, 10 Xem to create sub-accounts, and 10 XEM to create a new digital asset (or mosaic).

<h3> Transactions </h3>
- They represent configurations of multi-signature rules, the way mosaics are transferred between accounts, and how messages are sent in the NEM blockchain.
