Based on what I see and how I understand it:  Yes.  These coins that were purchased through PayBase with a credit card did not come from an exchange but instead came from the pre-mined coins that were still in GAW's possession.

I'll let someone else disprove me if they'd like.  Unlike "gawd", I'm not infallible.

About 60% of the 12 million coins are going to customers, 40% are going to investors.
