And the quality and longevity of those other coins you refer to? How many were scams? How many were glitched or failed to launch?
Do you spend months on a project working with a team and do you and all the members of your team work for free? I don't work for free. I do my work very well. My hobbies are what I do for free because I enjoy them and the quality is directly proportional to my interest.
So, how about you and your pals all get together for a quarter of a year and make us a coin, then pay us if we aren't savvy enough to make our own profit trading the free coin you guys are gonna be giving us right around Thanksgiving time. And throw in a turkey to feed my visiting relatives. Hey, pay for their gas to drive out and visit me, too.
And their job is to develop a coin, not to subsidize you. That's what you have a mommy and a daddy for.
Mommy and Daddy, really.

They didn't need 1000+ BTC to develop, you can do that without funding. Many coins develop a coin without any fund. It's not their job to just "develop a coin", they went deeper due to requesting money from investors. Thanks for your input though, have a great day.
