So... I got this unsolicited email: @p{par}


@s{quotedtext}
@s{quotedtext}
 @p{brk}
... and I'm trying to figure out why my immediate reaction is "yuck." @p{par}

I guess I just don't see the point of IxCoin.  I just spent some time looking back through all the original poster's messages, and I don't see any prior discussion of goals of IxCoin, how it should be designed, etc. @p{par}

If the goal is to let more people be early adopters of a new cyber-currency, then it seems to me giving early bitcoin adopters a bunch of IxCoin goes against that goal. @p{brk}
