You have a coin which is driven purely by speculation and has no actual services built for it.
It exists in a vacuum of other speculators and miners who all want to get rich and don't want to be the ones left holding the bag

It is a currency. Currencies have speculation.
The fact is that Litecoin and Feathercoin both are the most female-friendly coins in terms of their names, and conservative nature.
How is "Lite" any more female-friendly than "Bit"? Because girls love to feel slim?
Think I'll launch tamponcoin next month - a female-only currency.
