Re: [ANN] NeuCoin - Easy to use, free to try, focused on micropayments - Official
Things started to turn ugly when "marketing expert" Mark took over control and started acting like the next Kim Jong Un. Stating that "harshing on my buzz, dude" as part of the official reason for banning someone just gives an idea of the level of professionalism and maturity we can expect from him.
True. However, from his languaging, you can tell he's really "hip" and therefore obviously trustworthy.
Things are guaranteed to turn ugly for this coin, this was guaranteed from the moment Daniel Kaufman had anything to do with the project, implicated in the direct revenue scams in the mid-2000s and runs a slumlord empire and other dishonorable businesses.
The coin itself is a fork of Peercoin, comes with massive inflation (which is a guaranteed coin killer in the crypto world) and their adoption plan consists of spamming freemium websites with less than 10 million users (sounds great in theory but less than 0.05% even purchases or buys stuff on freemium websites - so you can't 100,000+ paying users among 10 million deadbeats who won't even pay for content they like, never mind paying money for magical internet beans).
What really put me off was all the NeuCoin banner ads someone was paying websites to show. They reminded me of the same banner ads MarineCoin used, and they were displayed on the same websites. If this turns into another MarineCoin then I'm glad I'm out of it.
