Nothing special about GEO? Do you know of any other crypto you can wander around and pick up?
Ubiq partnership allows them to provide the unique service of attaching other coins to Geocoins. Why reinvent the wheel? With crypto and computers in general, that's inviting disaster (security). GIS makes GEO special and letting Ubiq handle the network just lets GEO focus on what's unique about them.
What does #1 in coinmarketcap accomplish for GEO? They should become #1 because of a good product and constant progress, not the other way around.
GEO might be a money making scheme but so is every other coin out there. And it worked for me. I already made my investment back and got some free coins out of it. So yeah, I'll be hanging onto them for a long time.
