I've just heard about Goldcoins and it's always good to hear about cryptocurrencies that have catchy names. For example I prefer Tigercoins over Zetacoins just for the name and I can't stand the name "litecoin".
Beyond that it fits the profile of emerging cryptocurrencies that I would like to get... That is fast confirmation, a dedicated community, a snappy name and a coin generation/ distribution system that I like.
