Just discovered CAT - but what's with the insane difficulty and the projected drop after "only" >1900 blocks? Is this some joke or a pre-mined crapcoin? And who would be dumb enough to burn GPU power on this?

No, it wasn't premined. It's based on Bitcoin, but with Scrypt instead of SHA-256, so the difficulty went up quickly. Because some of the early miners still have quite a few CAT, they're screwing with the market prices and prevented it from being as profitable as it should be, so it's not got the hashing power it should have.

how to know if someone is screwing with the market, market manipulation?
How to see difference between - low need vs manipulation?
