We have been following your coin with interest for a few weeks since our coin launched a few weeks after yours.  We had some ASICs and needed something to put them on since our coin is X11 and will not work with them.  We did not want to sell them and looked for a good scrypt coin to mine with them.  So we are mining GUN and have bought some on Bleutrade (where we are also traded), when the prices were low.  We were very pleased to see the prices about double this morning and we sold some for about twice what we bought it at.

We are a CHL holder in Texas and have high hopes that your coin will be successful (as well as ours...LOL).  We agree with all your thought processes we have read except for one.  We saw in an earlier post about member concern that your coin features might be outdated and subject to an ASIC attack (don't worry about me, my hashing power is not that overwhelming).  We noticed someone in our pool showed up with 35MH/s this morning to mine GUN - probably an ASIC I bet.  With so many coins out there it is tough to stand out.  I am curious why GUN does not take some type of fork to upgrade to newer features?  It seems you have a good following and a stable coin - now might be the best chance you have before retailers jump on your coin.  For our coin, we chose to go the X11 and DGW3 route with ours. Already, we see X13 and X14 coins coming out and are pondering if we need to upgrade or wait for something bigger.  PLEASE, there is absolutely NOOOOO criticism here - nor any intent to promote our coin, just another supportive GUN miner/user hoping to see some serious upward movement on GUN and looking towards the longer term.
