Why are people pushing the coin this hard when it has this many problems?
My previous long post answers this:
Fair launch. It is just so precious. And never before happened as well. So that the largest holders are not there by accident (or more likely planning by the dev), but because they wanted to buy a crappy coin at a high price. Monero's history is special.
Just tell me one example of a coin where the dev is not the largest owner.
I believe it is very good that the coins are not dev pet projects.
"Why is this coin not taking off when so many big names are supporting it"
I can only say that if something should happen, but has not yet happened, there is a good chance that it will happen.
