Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

I think that solution have been already developed. Make a normal coin on sha256 or scrypt and let people mine coins, then you shall assign number of coins in the old coin blockchain to the number of coins in skycoin genesis block. This should be more fair than creating another scam like ripple or nxt. I think you can do method of generating priv addresses the same as in the old coin. So what you'll have to do is just type in your priv key in skycoin client.

Problems with mining
- in CPU coins, all coins go to people with botnets
- in GPU coins, all coins go to people with GPU farms
- in SHA256 coins, all coins go to people with ASICs
- mining gives all new coins to a small cartel of already wealthy miners
- most miners are invested in coins for the short term and not really part of the community

The vast majority of mined coins today are extremely well organized pump and dumps.

THIS IS A SCAM. I WANT FREE COINS.

I wont address criticisms by two week old socket puppet accounts which are pumping Catcoin.  

Anyone can read the Skycoin source code and determine if Skycoin is a scam.

The exciting thing is not where the coin is today, but what it will be.

How are the coins generated, and how will people be able to get them???

The developer will "release" the coin while he owns 100% of them. The only way to obtain it is to buy it from the developer(or someone who has already bought it from the developer).

This just takes "pump and dump" to the next level.

Create a coin, hype it up, sell tiny amounts in hopes that the price goes up, then dump the lot and have an early retirement. Scamcoin, just ignore it and it will go away.

A lot of people are hating on SkyCoin unnecessarily for the coin release mechanism, or rather, the lack thereof, but ultimately that is short-sighted. The project is open source therefore, if you don't like the system, fork it and make it better. Honestly, I would like to see a fair coin-release that followed the exodus addresss concept MasterCoin implemented. Skycoin offers one possible improvement—No devopment skycoin's should be created without a vote by skcoin stakeholders. The developers would have to live off the bitcoin raised in the exodus address or bring their projects to vote for additional skycoins. I strongly suggest such a mechanism is seriously considered and personally would not even consider using a system where the developers hold all / most of the coins (like Ripple) and release them to exchanges or partners

If that is true, then I will most definitely consider an investment. This also indirectly addresses the Nxt/Ripple "problem".

OP, you claim this is the first non POW coin but this is not true, NXT is and eMunie is very similar to this coin and has been anounced for a while now. So whats the deal?

This looks pretty interesting.  I'd like to see how well re-writing everything from scratch in C/Golang holds up.
