I bought a small amount of Huntercoin and have a few questions.
The coin seems to be very cheap and I'm trying to figure out what negative factors may be influencing the price, and whether those factors will change.
The worst thing that I have noticed is the premine. 0.2% I believe. Many people will not buy premine coins and this is the first coin I've bought knowing beforehand there was a premine albeit a small one. Has the dev considered donating the premine to some charity or destroying it, then subsisting only on donations and/or some tax incorporated into the game?
I am not a gamer but I'm curious how popular the game itself is. Are there accurate stats? When I look at the map on the website there are four color rows and a 'generals' and 'all players' column. Is the 'all players' column all people registered? Or all people online? Or something else?
Are there plans to introduce other games that would appeal to another slice of that market?
How many people are involved peripherally with the coin's development? Is it mostly a one man show or is a fair amount of work done by others? In other words is the coin entirely dependent on one person or would it survive easily if the main dev quit?
Thanks.
There was a 0.2% Premine - this was for bounties. Some paid out for graphics, block explorer and other stuff
85k
12.5k went to me, 12.5k went to Mikhail -- (12.5k = 0.4btc atm). I also spent $$$$ on the project.
Although i Hired Mikhail for the project - I allowed him to keep the coins on his computer.
He Passed away - and those coins are still untouched >>
