The coin has one huge benefit! The name! Forget us nerds. Each coin has to survive in the market later. Dealers and consumers must want to use the coin. Do you want to pay later with a Lemoncoin or a Smartcoin? In addition, you can easily remember the name, it is positive, thus has a good image and it´s has a lot of marketing possibilities with the name.
for all our sake i really hope you are right, in my opinion the name alone can't do too much. Dogecoin as an example, without the community it's just a meme, at the moment this coin has nothing really going for it since the community except for the vocal few doesn't have faith and no one is buying it. Everyone talks about the 'whales' buying it and holding it yet the volume is not even at 5 btc... ever since the great dump of 100 btc. I know I sound very negative but it's just the facts and reality of the situation right now
Even Doge is very new and I don´t believe it will be successful in the long term. I´m a marketing guy and I´m thinking in longer terms. From a marketing perspective, I can say that Smarcoin has the potential to be successfully established. Theoretically, any coin can have the same technical features, this is why I am convinced that the name and the marketing long term are the deciding point. Of course is dev and also community very important. But even if the first devs disappear, others can take over their job. A community builds up, if they believe that they can become rich with the coin
There are more and more similar coins. In my opinion the community and the investors / whales will realize that the biggest difference is the name and the marketing potential with it.
