I'll give the management team a bit of credit for helping me make a decent return on my mining, It could have been quite a bit bigger if cryptopia didn't suspend ltc trading when they did, but anyone could see that photon was never going to be a big coin. The sheer volume of coins pretty much made sure of that.
The whole Blake ecosystem of merge mined coins is pretty interesting to me and some of the in-game transaction concept is pretty interesting as well. If it's incorporated into the game itself and can be used as a wager between teams it's pretty awesome. That doesn't change that the coin could never really be valued at more than 1 or 2 sats in the long run because with block rewards as large as they are there is a never ending supply being constantly dumped on exchanges.
You see it all the time with coins that have a low value and a huge supply where people are coming in and buying a few, trying to create a hype around it to drive up the price and then offloading what they bought. I guess it can be good because it gives the coin some attention for a period of time, but at the same time it could be bad because after it crashes you end up with a lot of pissed off people either dumping at a loss or forgetting that they have a bunch of coins and they're left with a bad taste in their mouth.
it could still grow however as marketcap is still very low given the number of coins.
sure, the number of coins will literally double in 4 years, but at 2sat ea, that still brings the marketcap to merely $6 million, or even if the price is 20x at 40sat, that makes it still a reasonable $60 million-$120 million.
comparable to other gaming-related coins. I do suggest finding a way to reduce coin counts in the long run because it really will cap growth if the price ever starts to go up.
but firstly they need to stop the fighting.
argue with each other over the internet all day and nothing good would come of it. Neither side is going to yield and apologize or whatever...settle your differences privately and move-on.
fork the coin if you have to.
The management team has the group of people necessary to get something done I suggest simply starting your coin or make a deadcoin alive and great again.
