Can someone saw why this is better investment than MRO ? I hear that they are both similar but in separate ways

My 2 duffs on the matter:

Yep, Monero is only a couple of days old and already number 24 on coinmarkedcap

Monero is clearly hyped up as a result of Darkcoin recent success, people felt they missed the Darkcoin train and are hoping to catch another anonymous train. What they are failing to see is that there is no comparison in many areas:

1. Monero is a clone of Bytecoin without the involvement of the original devs. Darkcoin on the other hand has a committed full time developer that has a proven track record and continuously improves on the project.
2. Because Monero is a clone they didnt have to dedicate a substantial amount of time to come to a first release of the coin, hence the couple of days old, but that is the same reason that further improvement will be delayed.
3. Most importantly Darkcoin is much more than just an anonymous coin, it has a much better financial model than competing coins, and great potential to leverage its network in other areas different from anonymity.
4. Evan is a dev we can trust and he will improve upon Darksend adding ring signatures or other technologies that will improve the quality of the anonymity and we will still have the masternode network which will put Darkcoin far beyond any other coin anonymous or not.
5.Darkcoin has proven to be resilient and to rebound in the face of dumps, it has a loyal community and holders are committed beyond price to seeing the project succeed. This is very rare to find.
6. Darkcoin is based on Bitcoin, so real world adoption and infrastructure is much more likely to happen quicker.

For these reasons there is a ripple effect with people looking for another Darkcoin, I am telling you Darkcoin is a one in a million investment, better just buy at current prices because the right balance of features, benefits and reliability is beyond anything these new projects are offering, it is just a ripple effect of what is happening with Dark.

+101

EDIT: I would like to add that I wouldnt invest in a coin with an anonymous dev like Monero. An anonymous coin needs a transparent dev, someone accountable for the project.
