*shrug* Good luck either way guys.
Kittehcoin already had a pretty good boost in popularity and price. I sold all of mine at the peak and I have yet to regret it.
Too many coins are trying to emulate Doge's success, and those coins are always doomed to fail if they don't go in another direction. It was something that's be difficult to replicate unless it were something with a huge hype like Flappy Bird. So I don't doubt that FlappyCoin will do well.
But regardless, how many coins have actually had 'innovations'? Go to coinmarketcap and think about it. Yes, there are some, and the 'innovative' coins often do well. But you can't condemn a coin to failure just because it doesn't have any huge new features, it doesn't work that way. If it did, a lot of the coins in the top 100 wouldn't be there. The coins that make it are the ones that have communities backing them that
truly believe in them and don't sell it all off when it hits an exchange.
Max Keiser helped the popularity of MEOW by promoting to sell DOGE and buying MEOW. A week later he was/did come out with his own coin. The man has too much ego, almost as bad as wolong.. A Shepard must tend to his flock of sheep though.
I mined the majority of the MEOW I hold and played the market for the rest. It has been profitable even if I sold the few million I hold at current price (20-30 satoshi) My only grudge with that coin is not getting on cryptsy fast enough to hit the peak. I missed it by literally 2 minutes waiting for it to deposit. Either way, whatever I would have made would have been reinvested at todays prices for the same reasoning as above.
I agree, Doge made their PR approach in a very genius way and it worked. Other coins can manipulate other PR events but I dont think theres anything out there that could quite match that PR move.
No, a single coin hasnt had anything really innovative or useful behind it (except for primecoin) at release. I just see nothing new about this coin that hasnt been done already and nothing is in the works for anything new. I will say I like the new logo though. =)
'For the future', MEOW reserved a private github just for their service/feature when it is announced.
