over the course of a year or so, using a moderately large cluster of equipment, after he explained the entire concept to thousands of people on the cryptography mailing list a month or so in advance and invited them to participate (and others were certainly mining otherwise he wouldn't need that cluster, just a laptop)

That's exactly the same as mining a million coins in a few hours after an ambush launch releasing buggy code in the middle of the night with no mention of any development goals until after the instamine was over.

Well its the same if you are a DRKtard. To everyone else it is not even remotely the same.

Well at least we've got you down to one fault... Instamined which was bought by a whole bunch of us right away... Worth then $200 to $300k woppy ding! ...  Chump change... So  if back to what really people care about security...
