Hilariously they've set themselves up in a situation where staying at their current market cap is basically a total failure, even though they made it to number 4 instantly. As I understand it people bought them for 20 USD in the ICO with the assumption that it was "backed" at that level. If it stays below 20 USD for too long it'll probably completely unravel.
Maybe there is a little bit of misinformation here. Since August I have been with GAW with their Hashlet . I have gained enough funds mining and right after the price of Hashlets soared from $16 to $50 , I have breakeven and more.
Now Paycoin, investors have $4 /coin in ICO where as Josh Garza , CEO of GAW guaranteed its price to peg at $20 once its on the market. The thing with PayCoin is , it had recently ended its PoW phase with 500,000 coins being mined using SHA-256 algo. After this PoS will start with the so-called HashStaker wallet (evolved from Hashlets).The recent jacked up of coin supply was due to the miners of Hashlets through Hashpoint- a mining reward for GAW accounts. Paycoin will continue to increase its supply since it will enter the PoS phase Monday Dec 22, 2014.
