I'm silently looking into hexx since the reborn ANN, and I feel everyday more confident about this coin.
Since then, a lot of work has been done and so many issues have been fixed. They were able to make a fork, update the core, implement masternodes, change the coin fund system and they actually succeded all this tasks in about two months (not to mention website, exxplorer, white paper...).
What I see now is a growing community focused on an ambitious plan: merging HXX with BTC, creating BTCX (with a 1:1 ratio airdrop). No need to explain how HUGE this could be...
Someone wrote that they don't have a product. According to me they are creating something that is really needed: a community driver, finally really private (zerocoin with the most reliable parameters), democratic (only CPU mineable), more scalable Bitcoin (2,5min x 4Mb block), with masternodes... This is light years ahead of the only one competitor (Bitcoin Private), and surely the first and only so far BTC fork that grab my attention.
I hope this community continue this great work as they did in this early stages... Stay focused guys and keep going!!!
PS: by the way, even if I agree with 99% of the original post, I think that owning 50% of the portfolio in an extremely low-cap like HXX is too risky, I will never suggest that... I strongly bealive that the only coin that deserves such treatment is BTC
I struggle to understand how these products on anonymous coins can be valued so highly at the moment. Just to say, I only hold Monero, and a little bit of Verge (purely speculative, I do not think it will last), and yes. I get that all the other anon coins are more private, more technologically superior, and all that, but it is pretty pointless until it is needed.
I know! Get it cheap now and hold until it is needed two or three years later, but I prefer to stick to Monero - it already works, it can still catch up to the rest, it expands and improves as is needed, not as we think it may be needed.
Bitcoin fork by the way, I just automatically dismiss them.
The thing is that HEXX is totally undervalued right now. There is absolutely no hype at all. Just a lot of concrete work-in-progress.
Comparing Monero with Hexx about privacy is a matter of trust: I prefere open source with secure settings that even devs cannot counterfeit...
Talking about speculation: HXX supply 1.5M + market cap 2.9M + upcoming BTCX fork in Q3 (giving HXX the same importance of BTC as of the 1:1 airdrop) = no explanation needed, it is simple economics...
About BTC forks, I usually dismiss them, but this time is different: I think I'm going to enjoy this one... a lot!
