Btw, great read none the less :)
I think as a currency it holds a lot more over other, it doesn't add other value but its privacy is higher than the others. There is nothing in particular coming to it but it has instant confirmations (unlike BTC), the second level of encryption on the transactions. Because they pay the master nodes as well as the miners they have seen an increase in the nodes while BTC is experiencing a decrease in nodes. And they keep 10% of what is released as it is released allowing them to essentially pay and employ people. They recently acquired a weekly presenter (Amanda B Johnson - from the daily de-crypt) which means they are now getting their youtube channel in the top 5 results for bitcoin videos for the past two weeks. It also means that they can employ more developers which they are currently looking for.... It does centralize it a bit but adds a huge difference and potential over pre-mined coins. Also X11 ASICS are starting to come out.
All interesting points that may increase their value. They even purchased a vending machine to demo the instant confirmations :)

That is really cool. I was not aware of that. Thanks for sharing it here..
No worries, didn't know about waves so knowledge gained there :)
