looks like it went down as predicted with gavincoin altcoin (bitbeans):

No pump, broken and abandoned 3 weeks after launch ...

q.e.d.

I know nothing about bitbeans, but the new thread says it's still working. It sounds like a POS coin that started briefly as POW. That's nothing like bitcoin.

go to last page of the new thread. Network is forked up and new blocks are only found every couple of hours. It essentially fell apart.

edit: well, i haven't tested the client so far. But i think it's worth having an eye on it if it can be functional or not. So far marketcap is 36k$ which isn't a wildly successful coin.
Maybe i'm mistaken and it's still functional - but for how long?
pos or pow doesn't make a big difference as it's just a proof of concept coin for 20mb blocks.

So far it has been a bit of a disappointment and wasn't able to rise above the scam- and shitcoins and i'm honestly not sure if it can reach a half decent marketcap. I don't think it'll be functional for a very long time if it even still is at the time of writing.
