Well BTCP was the only competitor and it turned out to be a scammy looking projects. The devs made millions with fake fork/project of ZCL and dumped everything.

This is all good news for a project like BTCZ that is community driven with very good devs and still a significantly/ridiculously low market cap. Just to compare ZCL for example had a $240M market cap, but BTCZ has not gone over $11M yet so it has a ton of potential.
