why would anyone want to mine that shitcoin?
Money I guess. I thought that people had already forgotten this. There are so many better to choose from and if there's no other choice, mine is to choose any other than this.
IIRC, Roger Ver which is the founder of this shit coin was already arrested due to tax evasion case. I wonder if mining this coin is still appropriate if the founder which holds huge share of this coin is a nasty person.
He founded that and supported it all along and AFAIK, tax evasion and tax fraud are two different cases. But he's into tax fraud:
