1. There is one in the making for that

2. I'm not sure if it is possible, I tend to think it isn't, but

as for both points - and do not take this personally as it is just a general statement - it seems to me that people have forgotten what cryptocoins are all about. They are only partly about mining.

Coins are not FOR the miners, as such, they are intended as a currency, a medium of exchange. Sure, we can have a coin that's only minable for a set amount of people, but that itself brings nothing to the table. Any coin solely designed around that is destined to fail unless it brings something to new to the table and/or people behind it manage to push it in a clever way and it achieves widespread adoption.

The only thing that puts value behind them in the long run is its usefulness as a currency.
So yes, we can have all sorts of special coins, as experiments, i'm not agains that, but their value will be highly speculative and will fade into obscurity within weeks.

Nicely summed up Managlica.This builds up on some of my points
