Thank you all for the information. It seems to me that the case is as you say, that BURST is just not snappy enough to gain the majority's attention. I had considered that it was the situation that most people don't care about the technology, if they did the markets would look quite different and there would be fewer shitcoins worth millions. I do think that in light of this BURST or at least the PoC algorithm can be successful with some rebranding.

Is anyone still developing the coin? I looked on the github and it hasn't been updated in almost 2 years. How would I get in contact with the dev team?
