A few points to consider -- especially for some of the naysayers/worrywarts:
* This coin has a pretty optimal rate of inflation, IMO -- 12% isn't getting into Weimar-Republic- or Zimbabwe/Venezuela-type inflation (and it gives a good incentive to hold and stake the coin). It's similar to buying a US Treasury bond in the early 1980s with their double-digit payout back then (interest rates are nowhere near these levels today based on central bank manipulation of credit and structural/systemic debt).
* Whoever is dumping their CROC is doing the fortunate buyer a favor as the seller moves to BItcoin or something else based on whatever their motivation might be (rent money, chasing after shiny objects, whatever).
*
The people who are drinking the Masternode-kool-aid/spiked-punch neglect to consider that Masternodes concentrate the network and make it less secure. A survey of this and similar topics can be found here:
http://weuse.cash/2016/06/09/btc-xmr-zcash/ . People who want masternodes should fork their own coin; CROC's got good specs without that bs. Masternodes would alter the earlier premises/character of this coin.
* Pretty simple math shows the majority of the new CROC are created by miners rather than through staking and this will be the case for a few years yet:
{ e.g.: With slightly more than 2,380,000 CROC existing now and a 12% staking rate yields roughly 285,600 CROC created by staking over the course of a year.
Whereas, with the 30 second targetted block time; the math is (3600 s/hr ) / 30s => 120 CROC per hour mined
=> 2,880 CROC per day mined => 1,051,200 CROC mined per year }.
Thus, there remains a strong incentive to send some hash to the network if you have a device that can mine this coin effectively.* There already is an established user base and various apps that incorporate this coin.
* I've seen quite a lot of negative press about Yobit (broken wallets and withheld funds for other coins mostly) and it's pretty obvious that there's some sort of bot doing flash-trading and goosing the volume there. It's worth noting that the trading fees at Cryptohub are 50% cheaper than at Yobit (so there's more money in your own pocket through trading at Cryptohub rather than trusting the bad rep at Yobit and chasing volume there currently).
* The people who are hung up on some exchange that will be proof that CROC has made it to the big time really need to grok the lesson/analogy of this book:
https://www.amazon.com/Who-Moved-My-Cheese-Amazing/dp/0399144463/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1506240166&sr=8-1&keywords=who+moved+my+cheese . In short, adapt to the circumstances as they are. Bruce Lee had that quote about being like water (probably taken from Taoism ultimately) which is a similar idea as well.
* If the developer wants to disappear like Satoshi or dump coins that's his prerogative; he seems to be in the Slack channel anyhow.
Finally, I like the logo. It reminds me of Frank Zappa's Barking Pumpkin records logo:
https://www.trademarkia.com/barking-pumpkin-records-arf-76486214.html . It effectively/pictorially hints at the strengths of the coin.
Croc Cash has legitimate functions. Its logo doesn't have to look like something "Corporate Scraper" approved for your consumption after marketing pitches and focus groups. This is an underdog coin and should be allowed to play by underdog rules and retain its character/nature. Also, there are thousands of coins out there and there should be free-competition within and without the space (and sentiment/prices/hash rates may ebb and flow as circumstances/evaluations change).
where is CoinMarketCap CROC well over the 10k threshold !? Any talking successful with Richie, Rami, Bill from the Bittrex ?
