Lots of hype and for all the wrong usages of crypto.
There is exactly 0 reasons why BK needs a coin of their own. It's all about generating hype and trying to cash in on a fad. The worst part is this is the story that will make headlines and will drive up other bullcrap alt-coins and ICOs because "if BK is doing it then surely there are riches to be made!".
It's gross.
- bluGill 9y agoIn Burgerking's case HYPE is more important than anything else. Thus this is probably the right choice for them even though from a pure technology standpoint it is wrong. Unlike most alt-coins, this one isn't pure hype unlikely to ever make it: BK backs it. On the other hand I expect BK will drop this sometime between 3 months and 5 years from now, and your BK coins will be worthless. 3 months is all the longer they can sustain the hype, 5 years is longest before the costs of maintaining all their mining machines will budget cut. I won't speculate on if there will be a transition plan for whatever replaces it: if you get these coins turn them in quickly.
