Ohh my... what the scamsters come up with when their idea, that they got lazy with dosent have the weight it once did & now try & play catch up with the rest of the pack. Reading inbwteeen the lines in crypto-land is the absolute best skill one can possibly have.

Actually, yourstruly's posts just made me sit here and ask myself a very simple question. If it is as he says 'just a gimmick', why are they now doing it? Or better yet, if they were capable of doing it before, but didn't, why do it now? Doesn't that indicate either a lack of creativity (not a good omen), laziness (also not a good sign), or just complete apathy (maybe even worse)?
I don't have any intention of trashing anyone's coin, and I feel really bad for the BC bagholders out there and the devs, all of which got burned hard by whoever caused that massive P&D. But yourstruly, I hope you realize that you are not doing the BC community any favors with your behavior in this thread.
In BC's defense, the guy who created the BCbit thing only showed up announcing a bigger plan a few days ago:
It didn't come from some community driven change of heart as you imply.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. It's all good.
