PoW/PoS hybrid coins are becoming popular these days. Masternodes are also a feature which is engaging to the community. The target usage outlined in the ANN post, though, doesn't seem too realistic to me. Why would someone use this coin to pay for tourism services, instead of the much more widespread Ethereum or Bitcoin?
However, this might have a future for the sake of speculation at least.
BTW, I have problems syncing the wallet. Everytime I load it it remains without connection for a while, and sometimes I have to restart it again and again. In the logfile there's a recurring error:
socket recv error 10054
socket recv error 10054
socket recv error 10054
I already downloaded the addnodes list in the ANN thread but this keeps happening. Perhaps it's just a young blockchain.
