New coins are released every day. Why? Everyone is trying to "one-up" the other with new features and gizmos and widgets. Or they're simple copies with a few parameters tweaked. They're trying to attract miners and investors to become the next big thing.[...]So how does a coin and a community pull more devs? So we include more features?
Backporting from HyperStake is one way. Presstab is adding a lot of features.
