I was going through this article Brief summary of MASS: a new blockchain consensus engine. MASS is utlizing PoC consensus algorithm and this consensus algorithm has so much to offer, probably thats the reason why MASS token is doing good even in current bearish market.

Quote

MASS believes that a more advanced consensus algorithm is the solution to promote the mass adoption of blockchain technology and realizing the vision of network decentralization. A consensus algorithm that is more democratic, fair, energy-efficient, safe, highly scalable and universal. Based on this vision, the MASS community has developed the MASS proof-of-capacity consensus protocol.

The MASS proof-of-capacity consensus protocol has many advantages; there are low barriers of entry, and it’s permissionless, with a 51% Byzantine fault tolerance, natural decentralization, and parallel support for multiple blockchains.

One can see price of MASS on following Exchanges.

Of-course PoW is more superior then PoC because it was introduced by Satoshi and is backbone of BTC.
PoC on the other is good for new comers who missed the opportunity to mine BTC. PoC backed coins are easy to mine on laptops and MASS is doing good on exchanges. So there is a reason to buy or mine PoC Coins.
This article reminds me of this 'every technology we see today is subject to innovation and disruption. The MASS consensus engine called PoC is obviously superior than the bitcoin Pow consusus algorithm.

However, PoW has been in use for a long time, PoC is yet to be popular. As such we cannot conclude which is superior yet.
