As I wrote in a previous post, I have been doing a lot of of research on Crypto Assets & Coins.
One of the initial coins I was interested in was Burst Coin. Who would not be if you looked at the chart? If I had 30 Sats back in December 2016 - I might have bought this coin. Heck, back in December 2016 I don't even think I knew what "Bitcoin" was or why it might be something of value. I almost bought in to Burst the day I joined Steemit. Glad I did not, and did my research.
Apparently all the 'good' Dev's left this coin and platform because a 'scammer' adopted the coin in Feburary 2017. This is why I am looking for coins with Utility & as an "asset class" for the cryptoverse. No some PR "Pump Dump" - seems this guy plans to 'Hype the Coin' to 3000 Sats and disappear.
People who are looking for other alts might consider Lisk & Ubiq. They have structure and development. Stay away from 'Hype Coins' and shady marketers. Just an FYI to the Steemit Community.
