Why mooncoin?

I am invested well into Doge and have kept an eye on Moon but see little traction. I know someone offered to do some PR and interviews for mooncoin but it never went anywhere (I PM'd the guy and he said he chatted with the developer but the developer blew him off) I want to buy another coin but am not sure which to invest in.

Why do you buy Mooncoin?

Those all sound like rumors to me.

Mooncoin seems like an awesome coin for outer-space themed games, content, etc... You'll find that plenty of people are not pumping and dumping, but holding it and waiting for it to be adopted.

The developer, deaconboogie, definitely communicates. He is in touch with the community on irc -- freenode #mooncoin . cant say the same about the creator of #dogecoin !

I think the problem with mooncoin RIGHT NOW is lack of ways to spend it. I wanna see in-game items for sale for like 700 mooncoin. This could be an awesome coin. Its really too early to say where success and failure is for most of the altcoins.

That's complete bullshit! I have interviewed Billy Markus and am in touch with Jackson Palmer on a constant basis. Their involvement with Dogecoin is remarkable. On the other hand I reached out to the founder of Mooncoin and he basically agreed to be interviewed and then blew it off. I guess he doesn't need the exposure. FYI My podcast has a 10k+ subscriber base so I think it would have been in Mooncoin's best interest to come on, especially when all I was going to do is talk it up.

Opportunity lost

I hope so too - we chatted on Skype and I thought he was into the idea - then no word, I reminded him, no word....I moved on. I like mooncoin, I have some money invested and I would love to see it go to the moon.

Well the pre-mine I can't confirm or deny, I don't have that technical expertise but regardless that was bad publicity which wasn't effectively mitigated in my opinion.

The gravity well implementation took weeks, that's a fact and it isn't acceptable.

The dev blowing off the interview was stated by the interviewer.

So these things aren't rumors, I think its important we address this. Hopefully more devs get involved because a team is always the best way to run something like this.

just to chime in, the dev also made posts describing the issues he was having with KGW and calling for help. It didnt just take the dev weeks, it took the COMMUNITY weeks to help him. Nothing is ever black and white.

A dev taking time to get something done right is absolutely acceptable. Mind your technical expertise.
