How will the devs use premined MINT? They say nothing about this, this is very strange and alarming. Part of it is meant for the creation of the Mintcoin Fund the world's first legally registered NGO for crypto (despite its name, the Bitcoin Foundation is not an NGO). I can't say much even me I don't know how all the premined had been spent (or is planned to be). What connects the exchange MintPal www.mintpal.com with MINT? Exchange and coin were launched at the same time. I hope MINT isn’t purely speculative. Officially, nothing, just a nice coincidence. Since I am neither in Mintpal admin's nor Mintcoin dev's shoes, I have to believe it It's too good to be a coincidence. I won't assume the worst possible outcome but it does look suspicious.

I would humbly propose you to read my article on this - we independantly came to mostly the same conclusions (there are some thing you mentionned that I missed and probably the other way around too Iinnovations in altcoins/ (I am considering renaming it something like "Altcoins, Darwin at works" or "Altcoins, a Darwinian process", I don't know what would be the most engagin title) Your link is not working.

KMC was launched on April and has the KimoShop where you can buy real products already. That's actually a great idea. More developers should introduce something like this. It's so great an idea, it'll be copied all over the place if it flies. But seriously, using cybers as virtual coupons is a perfect niche for alts.

It's a great reason for start mining something. Imagine if each coin has it's own partner and offers different goods - select a coin according to the goods it's offering!

If I had the bank to buy a small store, I would jump on the idea. Effectively, I'd be distributing store credit to miners via PoW. It'd be an interesting experiment to see if I could drum up some business for the store that way...

Of course, the opportunity to earn is the mainstream, but it will not develop the industry.

Thanks for trying to keep a seemingly unbiased approach to these coins.

The new generation altcoin must be completely anonymous, easy to buy\sell and have good dev team who would solve any problem asap (cause there's always hacks)

Nobody wants it yet, so by default it's impossible on early stages of the coin. Agree with you on everything else tho

Why are bots quoting me? I said this like 3 days ago. Maybe he liked it so much he couldn't resist and tried to be as cool as you?
