Another go at doing namecoin.... They've recently started using Sci Hub censorship to advertise themselves.
What's interesting is how much they're obscuring the fact that there is a coin attached to this, and people stand to make money from shiling it. Looks like the scihub gimmick lead to a small bump. But volume is ridiculously low: https://messari.io/asset/handshake
There's no way Handshake is secure with so little PoW.
Handshake is "Spearheaded by co-creator of bitcoin’s lightning network, Joseph Poon, Purse CEO Andrew Lee, Private Internet Access founder Andrew Lee and CTO Christopher “J.J.” Jeffrey"
The usual gang of shitcoin pumpers: https://www.coindesk.com/handshake-revealed-vcs-back-plan-to-give-away-100-million-in-crypto
"A fork of a bitcoin software developed by Purse, Handshake offers “no fancy contracts,” just a simple digital, minable ledger to record engagements between users."
lol, Purse's node isn't used by anyone.
