SPR will grow bigger than bigger in the coming months.
I believe much bigger than most people think to be honest
My exepected price of SPR is higher than DRK.
a lightweight whitepaper from somebody who is clearly a very talented developer.
How is the whitepaper lightweight???
did you read it?
I've just read it again and it says Spreadcoin is a currency with no mining pools that has a smoother block reward decrease and a marginally streamlined transaction format.
What about this part? Does not sound lightweight to me, but I am not a programmer.

To prove knowledge of the private key and whole block there are two new fields in the block header:
MinerSignature and hashWholeBlock.
MinerSignature is a digital signature of all fields of the block header except for the
hashWholeBlock. Changing any information in the block requires regeneration of this signature which
means that it is necessary to recalculate it during each iteration of the mining process. This implies that
miner must be able to sign any arbitrary data.
hashWholeBlock is a SHA-256 hash of the block data arranged as follows:
Padding ensures that there is no incentive to mine empty blocks without transactions. Padding values
are computed using simple algorithm which initializes last 32 bytes (8 uint32) with hashPrevBlock
and then goes backward and computes remaining uint32 values using the following recursive formula:
𝐼𝑖 = 𝐼𝑖+3 ∙ 𝐼𝑖+7. This algorithm ensures that there is no efficient way to compute padding values on the
fly during hash computation which otherwise could potentially give some advantage to mine empty
blocks in certain computing environments.
It is important that block is hashed twice. If it was hashed only once then pool could hash the beginning
of the block and send resulting hash state to the miners. Each miner would then modify some
information in the end of the block and recalculate the hash based on the known state without actual
knowledge about what is contained in the beginning of the block. Appending block data to itself make it
necessary to know the whole block to recalculate hashWholeBlock.
