This coin is both hilarious and interesting. Interesting since it shows what can happen after a hard fork. Also because somebody used a lot of hashes to get to this point.

At the beginning, the difficulty was very high and a single miner mined several blocks. Since the fork, the network used 20000 Exahashes (if I haven't messed up the math), which if employed on the Bitcoin network, would bring at least 40 BTC. So somebody spent almost a million dollars of opportunity cost to bring this difficulty down and finally able to mine it like crazy (along with others). Who was such a nice sponsor?
