btw .. The only thing I know about this project is that it is Ethereum with a twist (javascript instead of solidity).
I hope the devs do understand that that would not really be enough .... ..
Ethereum can easily add a javascript compiler into the bytecode

From a previous post a few pages back

LISK HOLDS THE FOLLOWING ADVANTAGES OVER ETHERIUM:

Javascript language simplicity vs Solidity language complexity

100,000+ JavaScript programmers vs. few Solidity programmers

Single hash generated  vs. trillions of valid but discarded hashes generated to secure blockchain in one blocktime

Cooperative, efficient blockchain generation vs. competitive, wasteful blockchain generation

Stable roundtable clockwork forging vs. unsustainable, exponentially growing free-for-all mining

Dapps on individual sidechains vs. dapps on bloated mainchain

Min of 2-4 to max of 101 cheap $35 Pi2 / $9 CHIP microcomputers needed for each sidechain backbone vs. large, unlimited numbers of expensive GPU systems needed for mainchain backbone

Sidechain dapps permanently free vs. mainchain perpetual "gas" payments required
