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

the hype on darkcoin is what a coin needs more then anything else and this has that IT FACTOR
yes there other things that make this coin great but with out the hype factor the coin would be nothing

If you talk about Darkcoin you're wrong. It's not just a hype but a well-deserved popularity due to a significant factor : the innovation.

Not to mention monero is a Clone of bytecoin. No innovation, nothing new, just copied Bytecoin...There are also 3 other Bytecoin clone/forks out along with monero... I don't see anything special in it.


Thing with Monero is, and I've bought some just in case it blows up (as a short-term hedge), is that it was too violent in stealing Bytecoin's work. Kind of like "oh, you premined 80%, so we'll take your work and get rid of you bytecoin people". This is scam mentality. But MRO people need Bytecoin development*. This might backfire through stagnation.

Also MRO doesn't hold any "high ground" vs other Bytecoin clones. What will they say? Hi, we are the first clones of Bytecoin? Cheesy

* Gmaxwell also commented on something to that effect a few hours ago: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=512747.msg6830290#msg6830290

Bytecoin was forked into a coin that the community could participate in from day one.
Alas, none of the bugs or short comings were fixed in doing that— and it doesn't appear that any of the people involved in it have the background for the low level work. So you might have just written out the only active developers of the software, may not bode well for continued development.
