Freicoin is "Bitcoin with demurrage".

It is an alt chain with the design goal that holders of the coin will have negative interest rates, as a means to increase the velocity of money by reducing the incentive to save. Fees are taken for holding coins and distributed to miners.

FAQ

Why would someone choose to hold a Freicoin and incur demurrage, where he can just hold Bitcoin instead?

Assuming they already have the Freicoin, exchange fees to Bitcoin may be greater than the loss from demurrage.
