Re: [ANN] Catcoin - Scrypt meow!

So. Let me sum it up.

1) This coin had a fork recently, not good.
2) This coin has a wallet that doesn't really work very well, unless you fiddle with VBS files and other clunky stuff (how user friendly...)
3) This coin is an obvious rip and plays on "DOGE" theme. If that is it's main redeeming quality then I don't think this coin will have a very long life.
4) This coin lacks any form of target, direction, organisation.
5) The coin's website is currently down. Great.
6) The Wallet is hard to find (official mirrors seem...the ABC of 'launch-ur-altcoin' scriptbook, but ok)
7) The Wallet has a virus indication TROJ_GE.702F8FAD . It is of a different type from other Wallet's false positives, which concerns me.
Cool

The developer does not seem to be very fast to respond to concerns, issues and troubles.
9) This just seems to be CTRL-F & replace name in some random altcoin data, then launch as your own coin and get-rich-quick-scheme complete.

I believe you missed the Kittehcoin thread and accidentally posted in this one. Wink

actually, kittehcoin should be point #10. not only will catcoin have to fight dogecoin for memespace, it will also be fighting for the same users with conspecifics e.g. kittehcoin, kittycoin, etc.. I think there's a lot of feline market confusion, in that people may not even be sure what they're mining even if they do like cats.

I've seen a couple of people confuse Kitteh coin with Catcoin already.

They both do have one advantage however; First-mover advantage. This applies greatly to coin meme space. If someone released a ShibaCoin, it probably wouldn't take a bite out if DogeCoin, as DogeCoin is already a first mover. Catcoin and Kittehcoin are both early first-movers based on cat meme trends, which you could argue is a much more stronger internet meme than Doge.

So what does Catcoin have going for it most? The name, and First-mover advantage.
