is it better than summercoin?
No way to compare:
Summercoins was instamined by a few that can maaged to mine, then a single pool with closed registration was the only one to mine the coin, then the difficulty explodes since kgw was removed, then other pool can hardly start to mine with insane difficulty.
Badger coins was launched without any problems and with constant ammount of coins delivered, except the POS that was not fonctional the first day.
luckily they discovered this themself and fixed it before the actual pow is over. gives me a safe feeling.
the pos fork isnt even necessary i think. but if they can do it and set it back to 12h. why not.
summercoin has a 4 day pow phase + pre-ann, that may be what has hyped it so much. the failed launch helped as well to hype it. sad, but true.
but because of the bad launch, twice, i am not on it. the makefiles were corrupt which is a very basic thing that should be taken care off before launch.
