Again, you don't even have masternodes setup as a network to provide tx locking. Are you really going to want tx locking on say 50 masternodes? 100? How many is enough to actually provide viable consensus? People keep talking like IX is right around the corner here, maybe it is, but I question sensibility without any pre-existing infrastructure to support its design. Lots of dreamers here, that's for sure.

Why dreamers?

Darkcoin made a powerful masternode network happen in just one year, and this with the quite hefty price tag of 1000 DRK per MN.

SPR masternodes will be more flexible, both in price and in installation requirements.

Plus, the darkcoin people will probably be most interested in running a DRK and SPR masternode side by side... why shouldn't they, if they already have the infrastructure in place?
Sounds like a nice additional profit without any large expenses.

So far, this is nothing more than a glorified clone. The no-pool thing is gimmicky without standing the test of time in terms of whether or not this really will prevent creative pools from mining. Besides, isn't there a miner (or group of miners) that control in excess of 20% of the existing network hash. How is that decentralized? Further, the current distribution coupled with lack of volume only indicates that when the masternodes do come into play, it's going to remain incredibly centralized with only a handful of parties involved. When you have people owning in excess of 7% of the outstanding coins, you have problems. Evan has already done the heavy lifting here, IX code is out on github and has been since November (iirc). People make it seem like Mr. Spread is superior to Evan in terms of ability when there hasn't been anything truly innovative here. The SpreadX11 came from a mistake in playing with the blocktemplate which is currently the sole selling point of this coin. Did he find a potential vulnerability in DRK, sure, but if you have enough eyes looking at various areas of the codebase, you're bound to find bugs and the likes on new code that isn't even a year old. When Mr. Spread actually does something innovative besides taking code that Evan and team has already designed, then I will be interested. Until then, its a glorified clone with a gimmicky idea that hasn't stood the test of time in terms of viability.

Now bring on the haterade.

Oblox, you're coming across as the grumpy old man yelling at neighbor kids to stay of his lawn.

1) Please don't downplay Mr. Spread's fixing Evan's code... Or at least show evidence of other "clones" out there doing the same since as you say that's what happens with 'enough eyes';
2) please show evidence of 20% of the SPR network belonging to one miner
3) Evan is currently the indisputable champion programmer of crypto until he's not, in my opinion,
4) volume is cyclical, you should know that well from watching OTOH's order sit for days on the DRK books when he tries to buy 60k DRK at a time, I'm not following with the point you're trying to make about SPR mn's though.

Overall I give you a FUD grade of D+.

3 is bullshit, Satoshi kicks his ass Cheesy

I said "is currently" for a reason. Satoshi "currently" ain't kicking anyone's ass in programming crypto.
