Ok,
Let's say i0coin has a good potential, a great developer, a nice website, a purpose, but it lacks of a 'sparkle' starting the process leading it to adoption. Plus the support by miners is clearly much lower than ixcoin at the moment. I think that, like ixcoin, it suffers of a name difficult to read/remember. We discuss of features, the common person simply examines the meaning or attractiveness of the name. I personally believe a good name is 30% of the job necessary to make a coin successful, 30% is the purpose, and 40% is a mix of all the other components.

ixcoin name: we still don't know what ixcoin stands for. shhhh its a secret. Why it was chosen or what it means. Is it just a clever name parking of two of the most popular letters, i & x, or is it something deeper. who knows?! I and others have asked that question repeatedly but obviously this is a game to the original developer who ever he/she is.
i0coin name: it seems that i0coin was originally a slight against ixcoin. back in the day of there being 1-2 altcoins, bitcoin fans were VERY unhappy that someone dared clone the holy bitcoin. so when ixcoin (a copy of bitcoin) came out it made alot of people really salty.
- I0coin (= Ixcoin with 0 pregenerated blocks) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=36425.msg448463#msg448463
---------------------------------------------------
Purpose: right now ixcoin is just striving to stay up-to-date with bitcoin. ixcoin helped prove what happens when all coins are generated in bitcoin.
i0coin: it looks like is also nearing its total generation of coins (congrats). H
Edit (looks like i got confused with i0 and i/o)
Observation of cryptocurrencies shows that coins that fail to implement new technologies die quickly
(except coins with real-world adoption, like Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin), and hence after the release of ethe-
rium we will wait for "Mesozoic extinction," with the appearance of new, ethereum-based currencies

sparkle:
if and when ixcoin is updated on the largest mining platform cex, it will allow for someone to build a
system onto ixcoin. other then that, there is nothing planned for ixcoin as the belief of the main ixcoin poster is that a conspiracy is at foot and a secret hand will guide ixcoin to the moon, so no need to do anything.i0coin however is developing new tech.
we propose a new language of transactions I/Oscript, which is the development of the script,
allowing construction on the basis of our decentralized blockchain for general purpose key-value storage
with an advanced system for delegation of rights, as well as further steps to develop I/Oscript to Turing-complete language, which will grant the same ability as ethereum, to create smart-contracts.
