whats the development team/support community like? I find if they are poor then that can kill a coin.
Unlike MintCoin, Earthcoin, etc it's not highly promoted "to the moon" by a promotional/development team.
I think that's the strenght of Bitcoin sCrypt: almost everything comes from the growing strength of the community.
Bitcoin didn't have a developer after Satoshi left it. But it got picked up by a growing community.
Nothing beats a strong community.
that's probably the best approach, too many coins try to run before they can walk. so what is the BTCS community like?
