Honestly I wondered myself why Pirl exists, but I am actually starting to really like it. I've mined quite a lot of it and have been reading up. I am really interested in the master node feature. The price has also doubled since I started mining which is a plus! It may be just another Ethereum fork, but money is money.

It is certain that there are a lot of crap coins out there that serve no purpose, such as DOGE; but people keep trading them so they have value. I wouldn't count out PIRL just yet.
