Just a quick disclaimer. I resteemed the pocket token's genesis block share. To my followers please don't view this as a purchase suggestion or a pump (I would not encourage you to purchase any at this point) but it is a fun little side project. If the dev is giving away free coins who am I to argue? It sounds like a neat little addition to the system for tipping or giving a thumbs up rather than using your prized steem backed dollars or steem you've faithfully posted and liked for. If the project succeeds it could become a lot like the poloniex exchange chat token (forgot what it was called).
In short:
Cool side project someone is doing
Wouldn't recommend buying
Personally I'm just doing it to gain a little if it is worth anything later
it is free to claim for a few days, doesn't hurt to do it
This is general advice for anyone in this space, don't rush in too quickly to a new project. Research and understand what you can. This one is pretty much no strings attached so I figured why not but others may cost, store your crypto wisely :)
Have fun :)
