Cryptohunter has been spreading unwarranted FUD about Hirocoin, he was asleep when it launched. Please come read the release thread to put your mind at ease.
The most excellent Hirocoin launch thread
Whenever you release a coin someone is going to be sleeping. Even so Europe was in morning to midday.
This coin uses the X11 hashing algorithm which is only the second coin to do so and the first conventional one. X11 could be a big thing with Scrypt ASICs coming but there could be another hashing algo that becomes dominant but I cannot see the future.
A lot of time has gone into making this a proper release distinguishable from the majority that we see. Please check out the GitHub commit history to see the development history. There were clients ready to roll at release and a DNS Seed node.
Please take the time to make up your own mind. cryptohunter is entitled to his opinion as are you.
Side note, I am buying 100k HIC for 0.18BTC. PM me if this is acceptable.
