Am I missing something…
There is no Linux wallet. There is no Mac wallet. You need a special invite to send/receive from the HTML wallet. Up until recently there hasn't been a stable roster of pools to choose from.
These are things that should be ready on day one. Yet this is a coin that's "been around" for a long time. Why on earth would any reasonable person choose this over other coins in the space (Cannabiscoin, Cannacoin, etc)?
Linux wallet ? yes there is, my pool is running on it. Mac wallet, I can't confirm since I am anti-mac. As far as I know, you don't need a special invite to use the HTML wallet, I think he locked it at one point when it went viral and he was giving out a lot of coins( fartbags can confirm here). stable pools has been a problem in the past I admit, that's why we got one setup recently.
Honestly, I haven't been following the other coins ( probably should be). But we have a great hard working community here, anything you see hempcoin was built/developed without the need of bounties. We have up front, honest and hard working Dev's that did not get any premine.
I can't compare us with the other coins, but I believe many "reasonable" people would or already have chosen Hempcoin as a part of their cryptofolio.
I am sure others can elaborate on the details more than myself. If you have any other legitimate concerns with Hempcoin, ask away, we are more than happy to answer what we can.
thanks for your interest in Hempcoin.
The HTML5 Cloud wallet has the receiving feature disabled since it's the most costly feature to implement. If anyone would like it enabled they can ask on here. There will be multi-signature accounts available in the next upgrade. Everyone will be able to use that feature. Multi-sig accounts work by requiring multiple signatures to access funds. This way if they database or client get hacked the hacker would also require the users signature which isn't stored online. This is high security. No exchanges or altcoins currently use this method. Multi-sig wallets for bitcoin are still in beta mode.
Some reasons why THC is good:
- The Hemp Coin is a good community coin. Unlike other coins that are run like "wanna be companies", THC is a nice community project.
- Multiple "devs" working on the source code. Most altcoins have just 1 person working with the core code.
- The best block explorer of any POS+POW coin. Custom made by someone in the community.
http://hempchain.info/- POS+POW = dual security layers to prevent network attacks.
- Multiple source code managers. [HEMP] is someone else trying to manage the source code and provide alternative marketing. This is unique to most cryptocoins except the very largest ones. This will maintain integrity. If [THC] tries to change the code without community support or simply disappears, everyone can use the [HEMP] source code instead. You may also chose to use the [HEMP] source code instead of [THC] as [HEMP] claims to be using a more hemp friendly interface and marketing campaign in the future.

https://hemp.cash is good. Lots of features are coming to improve awareness. With all the social features, I have noticed some hemp based companies/organizations/figures following hemp coins on google+, twitter and facebook. It's possible that hemp coin is the first coin that many people have owned since it connects to facebook for anyone to get coins through facebook. No installing anything.
- Block halving in about 4 months. Another one in 16 months. Anyone in now is an "early adopter".
Crypto is just getting started. I recommend getting a few coins from many different coins. If you get in early on a coin with $10 to $100, one of those coins in going to turn that into $100,000,000 in 5 years. Many others will turn that into $100,000.
The Hemp Coin is growing. It's doing well. Since crypto is new it's volatile in market pricing. You never know what the price will be short term. Maybe THC is 100 satoshi next week, maybe its 1000 satoshi. Long term the price is going to be way higher. Crypto is world changing. You don't want to miss out.
