I have seen a lot of alt coins or crypto alternatives to BTC come out since I registered here (January 2012) and I have to say nothing is like eMunie and it will really shake things up. I have been following eMunie since June 2013 and it has made a ton of progress since that time. People here do not see all of the milestones that have already been accomplished with eMunie in the beta.  As someone who has met Dan in person you do not find many in the crypto scene with the character he has. To reach into his own pockets for refunds after a BTC theft should prove that. I see how dedicated Dan is to this project and can see the small steps of progress that are made daily. It has come a long way in a year.

Many people do not agree with the development style that has been adopted by eMunie (1 Dev, closed source) which is surely rare in the crypto scene.  With the right person and dedicated group of people pushing eMunie forward it can work and be successful. I would hate to see people just copy/clone it and overall reduce the impact of eMunie and waste a lot of the hard work Dan has done on this. How many other coins have come out with totally original code from the ground up, not starting from BTC/LTC, or involve any of that code?  After you have that list.....how many of those are based on an actual database versus a block chain?

eMunie is a currency....not an alt coin.  In time you can watch it catch up to BTC in the coming years and prove to be some serious competition. (yes it may sound unheard of now but just wait)

There are so many things about eMunie that in my opinion make it amazing. I will not go on and on but will just list a couple of my favorites.

Some eMunie features that will set it apart in my opinion.

1. ability to scale properly to process transactions at lightning speed. Test of 1 million transactions in just over 24hrs....done, test complete. We are talking Visa scale capability. As the network grows so does the speed. What is the max you ask.......the network we tested on was 25 nodes in size and spiked to 70 tx/s This will scale almost linear to the number of nodes.

2. Full Anon/Encryption - while other solutions have this as well now having it in eMunie will be great.......you won't be able to see any balances unless a person wants to allow it.

3. Communications Systems - mail and chat have been in the betas from the very beginning and will be a huge feature and really round out the product suite.

4. Decentralized Marketplace & Exchange (DMP/DEX) - yes other solutions have come out with these as well but I doubt none will work as well as eMunie.

5. Extremely Fast Transactions - It will be rare if a TX takes more than 10 seconds to clear.......oh and if you want to attach a file to a TX and have it encrypted inside the TX you can do that too.

5. Storage - While a lot of solutions are coming out with some type of storage or file sharing capability, eMunie had a discussion about that in July 2013 and planned this feature, it will be called the Storage Vault.  This feature has not been a priority so will not be in the initial release of eMunie but there are plans for it.

Based on the above.....you should have a very short list of other coins that can compete with this......these are only some of the features.....there are many more!
