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.  Smiley

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.

And of course, there's lots more of them than early adopters. I further 'umbly suggest that ease of use is a far bigger priority than having a gifted and active spokesperson.

Look at it this way. To Joe Lunchbucket, the bricks-and-mortar world is the "real" world and the virtual world is but a veil. So, he naturally relates the virtual world to the bricks-and-mortar world.

To J.L., shopping at Amazon is as easy as picking up the phone and ordering...except it's better! There's lots of dish on the product he wants to buy.

To J.L., an exciting computer game is as exciting as a Hollywood movie...only better! He himself plays one of the characters!

Consequently...to Joe Lunchbucket, a crypto wallet is like the leather thingie that we all carry around. In order for him to conclude that a cyber is "better," the crypto wallet has to be both secure and as easy to use as a "real wallet" that holds the credit cards. In the "real" world, we don't walk around with physical padlocks on our wallets. Even if doing so is as easy as remembering a three-number combo or remembering your key. Wink

If you can solve the tough and vexing problem of making your wallet both secure and as easy to use as a credit card, you'll have a real contender.

Oh, one more thing. Why doesn't everyone use a counterfeit-bill detector when they go shopping? It's not like using one is hard or anything.  Wink Wink Wink
