Is there some retiring of coin going on? I noticed on the chain explorer the in circulation amount seems to have gone down (haven't checked in awhile though).
There was block reward cut from 500 to 50 coins. A lot of unnecessary changes....
Currently there is no will for further development by main developer so we are stuck in a crossroad and switched in some weird waiting mode.
Its a shame though. This is unique coin with ASIC resistance and fair CPU mining algorithm.
I will pay 10,000 HODL for two pizzas. Who sells :-)
