I'd also like to point out that EvilDave posted a stat in another thread indicating that ~40% of NXT is now forged by little guys and gals, not just 'whales'.
MS will definitely enhance a fair NXT distribution over time. Focus on the NXT tech awesomeness, rather than the investment it took to get it where it is today, and a balanced conversation starts to emerge.
How long would it take for someone with 1000 NXT to forge anything and how many could be forged in a given time?
