The purpose here is to let newbie0872, who just joined yesterday, know that there is a difference between litecoin and lollipopcoin.
Except nothing proposed accomplishes that. LollipopCoin creator can copy/paste search/replace LiteCoin code, and then meet just make sure he/she meets the following:
a) windows and linux wallets
b) source code
c) at least 3 pools open to registration before launch
b) an official website
c) github
d) allow a decent time before launch so that people aren't caught off guard by a new coin launching at some obscure time.
Criteria of the above are actually most easily met by quick copy/paste clones and pump/dump schemes, than by new dev efforts with limited resources.
It sounds like this is actually (inadvertently?) going to encourage copy/paste clones and the homogenization of alts:
1) develop source code that devs can copy and use to launch their own coins. the source can include several parameters set by the foundation that will insure a fair launch and longevity of the coin.
It does not solve the flood of crap alts.
It also potentially hinders innovative systems that differ in new fundamental ways.
