I checked the website and the promo section, it was all sparse at best unless you have a direct link to something I missed.
So far what I see is..
..no business backing/partnerships
..no commercial use at launchtime
..nothing awfully unique (many other coins have used rewards to incentivize people to spread the word)
..nothing apparently forward-thinking regarding sustainability
Not trying to skewer you, just cross-examine and determine value of what appears to be another hyped-idea of a coin platform.
BTC buy-in won't set market value as you'd like to claim; miners hitting the exchange and using the coin for commercial purposes will. If you have no commercial outlet or business partnership, this leaves only mining, and miners need to pay their electric bills, and will dump the coin for whatever value they can get.
On the positive side, you have a nice logo, I do like the logo.

Surge, what's the point of this coin project? Aside from claims for faster/better common-use transactions, why not use something else? You're pulling an initial BTC buy-in for development, toward what goal? I skimmed the thread but didn't see anything in particular--perhaps I missed it.
Development is making a marketable coin which incetivises people to spread the word in exchange for coin rewards.
It sort of serves as human mining trough promotion which brings the coin to the wider audience.
All the details are mentioned in the Promotional Coins section of the thread.

Too much IPO!
Well IPO is for having a starting price and to establish the market as well as provide funding for further development (custom/more user friendly wallet is in works already, hopefully will be done by release).

What's the outstanding of this coin?
This coin utilizes a promotion system which not only makes people without mining capabilities able to earn coins but it spreads the word increasing demand thus the price making it more likely to gain merchant acceptance.

as the high risk and low profitability (most recent IPOs give the negative profitbability), I will keep myself out of IPO.
Anyway, I cannot miss the free food.

I was slightly interested until I read this line: "It's truly greed on the part of people being scammed that's to blame and not the desperation of the repressed Nigerian people."
Fuck you! So many people have been scammed out of money from greedy bastards like you, and it's their fault? I'm calling it now, this whole coin is a scam. Nobody trust it, consider yourself warned!
