There are others out there making claims that they came up with the idea for the name and they have released their own coin with SPD as the currency unit.

On top of this, my colleague did have a Pre-ANN thread opened but this was deleted due to violation of TOS, though here is a mirror: https://bitcointa.lk/threads/scm-scs-speedcoin-placeholder.247395/
The idea back then was to separate the mining and savings part of SpeedCoin hence the two different currency units. This changed as development carried on and now we bought it together in to SPC.
My colleague and I do apologize for the confusion caused by the fact that we have a unique idea that unfortunately has clashed with another coin which was released AFTER I released my coin, AFTER I registered my domain name, AFTER my pre-announcement was deleted on bitcointalk. Hope this clears things up.
Great post Suresh. I now believe that this will clear up any confusion that may have occurred for the past few days, and can serve as a reference for future miners and buyers of the real Speedcoin.
