"If you consider (like I am) crypto as startups, you will seek for the one with the best plans behind. And anonymity is NOT a plan. Anonymity is a feature. Same for multipools. Why the fuck should I care about a multipool if nobody wants the coin. So it's also a feature and not a plan. Branding is a plan; marketing is a plan; finding new ways to distribute a coin is a plan. In case you haven't understand yet, all those crypto pop'ing out are made by miners, for miners, so you have 2 solutions; p'n'd'n'die, or p'n'd'n'p'n'd' ' ' ', because of great community management / improving the infrastructure behind the coin; finding new ways to market it etc.

It can't rely on 1 man. Darkcoin have a great dev for sure, but would be nothing without its community and without their big holders keeping up a big part of its supply out of the market."   X11 is also a feature and not a plan. Community cohesion and unity is the best foundation for any plan any altcoin could hope to have. An organised minority will always rule over a disorganised majority.
