As different as chalk and cheese, as they say.
like the line 
- BTCU distro is an airdrop of a PoW-PoS hybrid (based on Novacoin), which is now in the final pure PoS phase
- VCoin is pure PoW (based on Bitcoin), has finished its primary mining distribution phase and rewards are now tx only
OP is confusing, i read r=1, forever more
Will have to check BE to see to be sure
Will add to the ASIC pool list if you post any know pools

The main distribution phases are over yes but reward for VCoin is 1VCN per block.
