Because they see potential in this coin so they invest their mining power in it? Each person's taste is different. Where one see DOGE as trashcoin (like me), others see it as a good coin (marketing coin). Each person has their own reason. If this is trashcoin, let the market decide and not by one person (AtlantisPlatform) tell you whether it is a trash or not...nor let other people who call him stupid. Decide for yourself whether it is trashcoin or innovative coin. Don't let what other posts decide for you.
Oh absolutely, I completely agree with you. I am just wondering what *actual* reasons people have / what evidences leads them to think it's worth mining compared to other altcoins
Oops...I read your question wrong. I apologize. Well, for me, I believe there are several reasons.
1: They mine as a pump and dump.
2: They believe it is a good marketing coin because of the smooth launch and the initial distributions.
3: They believe dev. will make Smartcoin unique.
4: They're noobs.
