I'm not trying to be a downer but I don't see the differentiating point in this coin. I asked before and the response sounded more like homeopathy than science. I know the 888 is positively conspicous for Chinese with 8 being a lucky number. Maybe that's why I'm only getting superstitous responses? Is that enough to ensure success?
If you would read through the thread (I know there is a lot to take in), particularly the dev-team's posts, you would understand that the services being developed for this coin are unlike the common fair being splashed about for most coins. There is real money and real development behind this coin. It's not some teenager in his parent's basement trying to make a couple of bitcoin to by some grass.
Many of the projects for this coin are being kept secret by the OctoDevs. If they are truly groundbreaking apps, I do not blame them for keeping them under wraps, as there would be twenty coins by next week saying they already have that feature. Just like all of the coins out there saying they are anonymous because DarkCoin is nearing a breakthrough and the price skyrocketed. The alt-coin world is full of copycats and if I was working on something innovative, I would keep the lid on it until it was ready to go.
I personally believe in people doing their own due diligence on whatever investment they want to make. With that being said: Read the "OctoCoin" (dev) posts throughout the thread from beginning to end and I think you will have a better picture of things.
(Hint) To see the dev-team's posts, click their name on one of their posts and it will take you to their profile page. Scroll down that page and click view recent posts and that will bring up every post they have made on the forum.

That's pretty much the gist of what I said in my "homeopathic" response, i.e. if you want the executive summary rather than catching up on the whole forum, read the dev's posts. If you don't get it after that, move on, we can agree to disagree and go our separate ways. Most people here have no interest in engaging with trolls, we can't make you see something you don't, you need to do your own due diligence and make up your own mind. You asked where you could find out more, in a rather rude and abrupt manner I might add, and I politely suggested how you might do that. Attacking my response as homeopathic is rather unfair, you should be thankful you didn't receive my originally drafted response to your terse enquiry.
