Tailored sales pitch for rpietila:

1) Start with some hyperbolic upside talk.
2) Wine comparisons.(nice, someone knows his customer Wink

)
3) Obligatory AnonyMint reference.
4) Make sure not to step on any XMR toes while making it clear that both currencies are the best thing since sliced bread.

Even if rpietila doesn't buy any XCN I think he should offer you a job as Head of Sales at Malla. Wink

6) mini-blockchain radically improves BTC scalability (Holy Grail of pruning)

Nice theory! +1
But: Is this new piece of technology really relevant for practitioners (meaning no-tech guys / real-world dudes)?

Speaking for myself, I want a full PoW node running on my phone ASAP.

Meanwhile everyone else just runs SPV clients or remotely hosted wallets

And that's exactly why mini-blockchains are useful: They help the currency to stay decentralized, because everybody can run a full node without a large effort or cost. While this is, of course, not a large sell point for the normal user, it's important to sustain a healthy network. Also it has the advantage to allow micro-transactions more and don't have to essentially ban them (like bitcoin)
