I looked at Skycoin and it looked a bit scammy to me. Cant quite recall details of what I disliked, but claiming to be third generation of cryptocurrencies is a grandiose claim setting alarm bells (where were the 2nd gen, can we have them complete a lifecycle first please?).
Edit: Oh, I remember now, you need their own hardware (
) to create a new decentralised network bypassing ISPs. How you gain a link to the rest of the world without going via an ISP isn't explained. Because you cant do this, the best you can do is run a private encrypted network over the top of the established internet. Or you could achieve a low bandwidth mesh network by people running private (unlicenced?) wireless transmitters.
Two claims with no substance, and a proprietary product. That's just as Satoshi envisioned
