Re: Is GRIN still a thing?

It's been quite a long time since the first cryptocurrency with the "Mimblewimble" privacy technique was released. My first days of using GRIN were quite troublesome due to its added complexity. But it's a great coin to use for privacy-oriented transactions once you get the hang of it. Somehow, GRIN became a forgotten cryptocurrency as all of the attention shifted back to Monero. Was this a result of poor marketing/promotion efforts? Or a lack of user experience?

I'm wondering if this coin still has a future, especially when privacy on crypto has been frowned upon by mainstream governments. Do you think it can be good long-term investment like Monero? Or is it a complete bust? Your input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.

If the coin has been in the ecosystem from ages of days and till now the coin (GRIN) is still have this value of $0.08918 from Coingecko then the coin is still doing well though it is not popular like Monero coin which is also rating as $167.38. Monero is also doing well in the cryptocurrency ecosystem space. And from the way I see GRIN, it will be good for a long term investment because the price as it is, it is not too bad to invest. Not all the coins can survive to this time and for it to stay in the ecosystem in a low key with much people knowing it then once the marketing strategy is high and people know it more then it will do well.

Any altcoin that stays in the ecosystem for five years plus then there is hope to survive in the space. And really poor marketing strategy also affects the growth of a project in the space because if the project is not constantly advertised for people to see and use then it would be a forgotten project for all probably because it is not active or floating for people to see. And really the privacy of cryptocurrency has been tempered by governments so the absolute PRIVACY of cryptocurrency is doubted now.
