So what's the purpose of the MOON?
Just trading?
People often ask about the purpose of coin. People want to see one simple idea behind any coin.
For example, ETH - smart contracts, ETC - classic ETH, XMR or DASH - privacy,
LTC - silver to BTC, STEEM - rewards for posting, DOGE - for fun, XP - for online gamers etc.
The problem with Mooncoin, it's very decentralised and it has several projects in several directions,
MoonWord, SmartLikes (in progress), MoonEdu (promised by Evangelo, we all are still waiting for it, BTW, some update from Evangelo would be great).
Thus, people look at MOON and don't see one simple idea behind it. They don't understand what is so special about MOON. Investors need one simple idea to understand the project better.
Maybe the idea could be: a coin for scientific and social progress. MoonWord could be adjusted for free using in science and in social projects.
Currently a lot of people and even governments want to use blockchain, but just don't know where to start. To launch their own coin? Without miners, it will not be truly decentralised.
But it's very difficult to create a big network of miners and nodes from scratch. Why not using established and well tested one instead?
What do you think of it?
Mooncoin as a coin of scientific and social progress? Not for making a quick buck.
Mooncoin has a perfect name to match this idea.
Apollo Moon programs were stopped in the 20th century. Bright romantic ideas of space exploration were forgotten (quite small developments in this sphere).
Now people want mostly new gadgets (look at Apple's market cap) and make a quick buck somehow. That looks insane for people who lived 30-50 years ago.
No one can guarantee that this situation will not be changed in the future. Then, even if you want to make a quick buck now, you could be the first who understood that another world was upcoming,
the world of science (blockchain is only one important part of progress), the world of social progress, of another mentality, less boring, less agressive, more focused on real life, on really interesting things, not 2d (money+instincts), instead of that 3d, many 'd'.
