I’m glad you got your mojo back and didnt pull that trigger! Competition is good for the soul, you can see what they lack in and make your product that much better. Plan, anticipate and execute flawlessly
No one has monopoly of Idea, every Idea is been ruminated by a lot of individual, reason why it is very important to take a step ones an idea cross your mind, do not wait until you have all the resources to execute, start with what you have. If its is an Idea that you are passionate about, even when it seems it has been stolen you still execute if it is an Idea born out of passion
If someone has launched something similar to your project or token, think of what makes your project better than them. Don't be discouraged to stop because it's your project, thinking of a concept isn't an easy thing and if you do have a real business and you want to support it by that token so what's the reason that you should stop because there are some that are first to you? if I were you I'll do this.
Go forward. Be confident. Truth and perseverance will prevail.
But if you know to yourself that your project doesn't have any future plans and you don't have any realistic goals, just stop. You actually started first but someone else does it first. do you still launch as competition or quit give up and go back in the closet ?
Go forward. Be confident. Truth and perseverance will prevail.
Action is the key word when it comes to your mind,do not wait,do something about it,do not allow fund to be a stumbling block.Because no Idea can be monopolize,every of your thought daily has cross the mind of another person.So take action,do something, take a step. From conception to documentation and Implementation should follow suit.
For me you just need to accept the fact, because it was happen due to your negligence also if you have new idea don't discuss to everyone to avoid the stooling of idea. Then instead of self pity regarding what happen, why you should create a new idea? that gives you popularity to crypto currency society. People thinking had limitless so I'm sure creating new idea is not too much hard.
Get a new idea, or stay with the old idea, but add a better proposition to it so it will be unique in the end.
Once you can accept the fact that coming up with brand new ideas isn't the thing that differentiates most businesses, your mind really becomes open to what's possible and what you can truly accomplish. It also helps you clarify what your goal should be instead of trying to come up with the next big thing that's never been done. 
Idea is not the final point. The important things it's how you manage your effort to make this idea a real project.
I'm sure that if you started, pay efforts, sometimes money, you should play this game till the end. Perhaps finally exactly you will be the winner!
Even if there are two groups (competitors) with virtually identical products, one can still emerge as the dominant player in the market through better marketing/execution/price/cost structure etc. It's also important to realize that a company like 3M is know for taking ideas that are already out there and making them better.
You definitely shouldn't give up as it's not the idea brings you success. It's implementation.
This really depends on what kind of idea it is, how far you've progressed on it and how far they've progressed on the project...
It's not easy to give advice on this one without knowing what the idea is about and how far you've both progressed. More information would be very nice.

It's not the end of your luck to have more ideas. You're a mind set to think a lot of. Create a new for the best shot.
Your idea could be duplicated in short period of time after your project starts. It is normal and you should be prepared for this. Simply be fast in creating your product and have enough capital to proceed in order to compete.

You have to purse what you started. At the end it doesn't even matter,But...
If you lack the funds then you should re-evaluate the idea and find ways to execute it without $$$
If everyone who you trusted betrayed you, forget about the project and continue your path, at the end karma will reign
If you quit all together it means you were never going to execute that idea successfully, go back to the closet and put yourself together
If you started first and you have the balls to stand up against the competitor without funds or a team you will be legend

I think you should start a competition and try to be better in all aspects.

It depends, if I really like project and I can use it. I do not see a reason to build my own. But if I feel that I can do better and faster. Main idea is to have at least one major benefit
Agreed! You need to put in more efforts to make your idea unique and different and most importantly more useful to the end-users than your competitors'. You need to hire a team of developers who remain engaged in constant research and development in order to make your idea better and more easy to use and beneficial for the potential customers or users. That way you will beat your competitors and become more successful than them. google wasn't first search engine

You can't do anything when your idea is taken until you have patented it (patent means you have official right to do that thing). On another hand it's always better, if you think that your idea is great and it has serious potential, do your best, get loan and finish job on high grade, don't let others to make your idea lately and better.

Paraphrasing from other people, no ideas exist in an ether. If you've come up with it, someone else likely has already as well and is working on it. The planet is too large, $7 billion people. Even if original ideas are the same though, diversity comes in the execution. Always many niches to explore and occupy. Also, "does" is the key word. If "does" just means they put up a website and a white paper, maybe a demo, nope, not too late to jump in the scene. If is a dozen larger competitors that already have explored a space pretty thoroughly over the past two years? That's a case where maybe you go back into a closet and try to come up with another idea. Jump to:
