So I have been taking a look at IXC, and it has had its issues, ardent detractors because of premine, though others have come forward as it being legit and OK...

So I tried it out with a few coins, the networks appears to work well, quite fast confirmations, has a hash rate that's ok, 3 x TRC Hash....

and I took a good long think about the premine....I have come to the view that a premine is not a problem, as all coins are defacto premine by the first few to point asics / mass rigs at them.

In fact knowing there is a premine, allows me to price in risk better than not knowing or deluding myslef that there is not a defacto premine.

I think the concept around the pre-mine has to change, it just sour grapes from people who wanted to be early adopters, but some one beat them to it, so it gets bad press. Simple solution sart you own chain and premine that, if you want to do that

anyway I am interested in hearing peoples views as to why there is signs of Life recently on vircurex for IXC and it possible future.

What happened to the original guy?

Ixcoin has been around all along, it is merged-mined at bitparking's merged-mining pool and has been all along, and it is traded in Vircurex and has been all along. Nothing has notably changed, it is just humming along as usual.
