Honest question, how does this different from bitcore & node-bitcoin? https://github.com/freewil/node-bitcoin

node-bitcoin is just an interface to bitcoind, so you also need to run bitcoind. bitcoinjs, cryptocoinjs, (and now bitcore) are stand-alone javascript implementations which replace bitcoind.
Bitcore is designed to interface with bitcoind, so you're wrong [1]
It is designed to run server side on node.js or client side in a web browser
and interect with a trusted bitcoin node (i.e. a bitcoind instance)
