It's a carbon-copy of bitcoin that offers nothing new. Essentially play money.

That said, I've got BTE to trade for BTC at 100:1 exchange rate. PM me... :)

Seconded

It offers nothing new and is a waste of time and money.

It offers a new beginning. It has already minted in 48 hrs what took bitcoin 4 months.

So it's just for people who are upset they didn't get into bitcoin earlier?

Starting with difficulty of 1 ensures that a small pool of miners would collect a large amount of coins in the first few hours. They should have launched with a much higher difficulty to allow more people to participate from the beginning.

Fake accounts that open new threads about this fail? Wow

And what was about the guy who installed that client and had his bitcoin to suddenly disappear??

It's the equivalent of arcade tokens.

My apologies for my post above, for I thought this to be a joke thread, but have now learnt that this is a joke thread.

I think there may be a little more merit to the idea of a carbon copy of bitcoin than than their would appear at first glance. check out my post about it https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=167023.0

I don't see what the problem is.  It's not like Bitcoin is going to develop cancer because someone made a twin.  Then again, if I had a clone of myself, I'd probably attempt to kill it.  But after realizes how fucking awesome he was, we'd probably get along swell.

Then maybe he'd tried to kill me.  :o

If the two of you had sex, would that be homosexuality, or masturbation?
