Your coin seems to be a clone of Bitcoin, with an emphasis on UX to make it easier and more convenient to use.

You'd better keep an eye on this proposal following - the people behind it are very serious:

EDIT: Also, check out this topic. It explains and discusses the same innovation.

I 'umbly suggest that you keep your coin as close to Bitcoin as possible so as to take advantage of the "Blockchain 2.0" feature. There's already a lot of excitement over it in the Bitcoin world. If your coin can compete on an equal footing with the Big BTC (except market-cap-wise) then you'd be doing the crypto world a favour. Competition is good.

Thankyou for your comment and you are correct with everything you have said and that is our strategy. The only difference being the marketing, distribution and some changes to the UI itself to make it easier for those people that cannot change the clock on a VCR. After all, they have just as much right to enjoy Crypto Coins as other people.

We premine and we do it to put profits back into development. Bitcoiners mine to put profits back into their personal accounts. One benefits further development and the other does not.

We see Bitcoin at some time failing because it does not have a financial structure supporting it. Satoshi left, Gavin just left and it seems that there is nobody in the core team prepared to defend Bitcoin in the public arena. Why? Ideals only go so far. The core team does have work commitments, family commitments and so on and that needs a steady income to keep everything in balance.

Unless of course, your Amiir and happy to squat somewhere and be the spokesperson for Bitcoin. He did a great service and took the reigns when nobody else would. But he is not a speaker, or listener for that fact and after a while, he became repetitious and lost for words. However... Kudos to the guy, he deserves it!

Companies that have a business model are better financed to ensure development of their product and they do have a spokesperson to travel the globe discussing their product and defending it when needed.

Who went to China to discuss Bitcoin with the Government? It would be a sad state of affairs if China did reach out, only to hear back that nobody could fund the trip and that nobody was prepared to discuss the matter and enlighten the Chinese politicians.

At the end of the day, we are asking the average consumer to take on Bitcoin as an alternative. We are also asking merchants to take the risk of accepting Bitcoin with its wild price fluctuation. How can a merchant replenish stock when his/her Bitcoins suddenly plummet by more than 50%? Do you actually think the person selling coffee or Alpaca socks really wants to risk a loss all the time, for the hope of a reward later?

Who is speaking out for Bitcoin when it needs a spokeperson? Who dealt with China? Who is speaking with Russia? Who dealt with Thailand when it wanted to ban it? I actually researched Thailand and found that the exchange was not telling the full truth and I had a talk with the guy. Nothing he said made sense and it appeared more a ploy to get out of a financial problem. Much like MtGox blamming errors in the BTC code and other nonsense. Inputs.io blamed hackers and so on.... Bitcoin needs to get out there, but it cant when it cannot support its own dev team!
