Not to be a hater, but what made this coin "special" besides the nice name?  Huh I was amazed at the launch reception on here when:

  • It's premined (although, to their credit, it is apparently being being distributed via promotions with some level of transparency)
  • It doesn't implement Kimoto Gravity Well or anything to guard against pump & dump.
  • No unique block rewards (like lottocoin, etc.)
  • The logo isn't smooth! The general shape is cool, but I would lose graphic design contracts if I submitted images with wild pixels and rough edges!

I guess I just don't understand why some coins get lots of attention while others- with debatably better/more unique features (like prospercoin recently)-don't. Any theories around why this coin got the attention it did?
 
It is pretty "Rapid"  I sent some coins from exchange to my wallet and it was almost instantaneous. As you say, it has a nice name. Thats about it. A faster LTC clone with cooler name Smiley
