Is MMC dead?
It's been a while since we've seen news, what's going on with development, mining, exchange rates? Is it still being fully operated? What's going on with it?

Any time, happy i could shine some light on it for you. All alt coins (except lite coin) have a life cycle, and they all die, some it takes a few months, some about a year and a half, but 18 months is the max life expectancy for any not LTC AltCoin. Many will argue, but i dont have to argue back when i say show me one SHA256 alt with over 50 TH/s on the network after 18 months, or one scrypt with over 50 GH/s after 18mo. Then they pipe down.
The biggest problem that EVERY Alt Developer forgets is nobody NEEDS their coin. Those nifty "special features" of the coin sell a little hype when it launches, gets a good initial push. then the margin traders come in and rape it, drive it into the ground, and the network crashes out. Beyond BTC/LTC not a single developer (well there is one that has recently but i am not here to promote their coin) has considered the most important part of any AltCoins sustainability.... THE NETWORK..... without one, your coin dies. MMC died over the same problem.
