No need to get rude imo. I was continuing the discussion. Its easy to own a lot of SDC, anyone can become "an insider" and own 1% of all coins for about 9 BTC

But there is no rational reason to do so

so your point really seems like FUD.

It isn't FUD that the distribution is terrible, at least you don't think so since you acknowledge it. Nor is it FUD that false or misleading claims like "zero knowledge" and "not a clone of cryptonote" and "uses ideas from zerocoin" are thrown around a lot by a small number of SDC pumpers. See you did it below again...

I'm not being rude, I'm being frank. Enough double talk.

All I did was mention a legitimate point that the destroying and minting of SDC is taken from the zerocoin whitepaper, and anybody can look for themselves to see that. Also it seems the method that Shadow uses to prevent double spends is also from zerocoin.

The method Shadow uses to prevent double spends is from cryptonote. LNK phase.

Ohh I see, are you well versed on zerocoin also? Wouldn't Shadow have to stop double spending two times? Once for the ring sigs, and also again for the minting of tokens? I believe maybe the double spend prevention on the minting of tokens is then from zerocoin? Or no? Not trying to FUD at all, trying to learn. I like Monero too.
