SHA? I suppose you have got ASIC and realised that you are too late for BTC, right? Good bye.

That's what I think.  I was initially really excited for CureCoin because I anticipated it being something like PrimeCoin or RieCoin.  But since the random hashing is not able to be useful to the project, it is just feeding off processing power that could have gone to the project.

Since it is being mined by SHA, this will only enrich a few.  I assume the payout will be proportional to your "coin" value F@H already gives you for the metric of work you accomplish.  I've been receiving these useless "coins" for over 10 years now.  It was always about the thrill of computationally trying to guesswork what would happen if a protein decided to "fold" a certain way rather than another way.  

This coin just confuses people and dilutes the market share even further.  Ignorant will mine thinking they are somehow benefiting medicine.  The regular user cannot mine if it is SHA.  Mine Primecoin or Riecoin if you want to benefit medicine and donate a share of your profits.  The processes of protein folding are incredibly mathematical.

Also, you are going to launch now?!  When your website has been done for a couple weeks?
This was being planned for release back in August of 2013 at least.  Why release when nothing is ready now and risk hurting the coin even further?
