I have some friends who want to invest in something. They are more docile and into the stock market. The volatility in this could be pretty intense. I want to tell them about this coin, but it won't be so good if the dev fails to deliver. Any chance of this?

Is there a sister coin to this that you are investing in? I figure it would be tons safer to spread money around, maybe buy LXC and a sister coin and spread the risk around. Thanks for your input.
