Man, all this "coin must be instant winner" crap is depressing. You guys think it's just going to happen overnight, don't you? This is chess, not checkers. Get over it. It will take some time for any altcoin to get going. Once more and more people get into them, it will start taking off. I don't expect to get rich over night, or in the coming months. I expect a nice, smooth raise in value over the coming months. If I get rich, fantastic, if I don't, oh well, it was fun to do.
All this "we need to go now!!!" BS has to stop. The Devs look like they are doing what they can, so just sit back, mine some coins and enjoy the ride.
I do not think there are a lot of people saying that the "coin must be an instant winner". But, like you also say yourself: "I expect a nice, smooth raise in value over the coming months".
I think we all want this and to get a smooth raise, the coin growth should not stagnate.
There are a lot of new coins coming to the market of which 90% or more are never going to make it.
At the same time most miners typically have a very short attention span. We just need to make sure that we do not lose the current miners and attract new ones.
