I don't like the way the whole thing's been presented, with XC at the centre and the other coins as secondary. Even at this stage for XC to present itself as superior to Shadow is pretty arrogant. After the next release it'll just look absurd. They rushed this announcement - not giving the devs time to consult with their teams and communities - because they wanted their asset launched before the gems ICO. That's not a very professional way to launch a project this large and ambitious.
It's not at the center. Are you just misinformed or outright lying?
