Instamine was prevented like the quote - rewards gradually increased over a good period at the start, coins were not flying off the shelf right away, like with some other coins.

When we switched to dpos there was already a liquid market on poloniex, which is still active and quite cheap.  Early adopters can get coins there very cheaply right now.  Is it good that on uᴉoɔʇᴉq there is still mining?  All it does is burn electricity at the cost of inflating the currency.  Only most competitive miners who have lot of money to spend on ASIC can even get an entry.  Instead of buying watts and wasting electricity to inflate currency more, you can buy the coin on the liquid exchange.  About same cost, same reward for early adopter (if price goes up then you rewarded for buying it cheaper now).


Although I disagree with your portrayal of the "fairness" of the coin, at least it has a person working on it and making sure it works, which is more than many coins. As others have said, you should at least take the time to make market cap easily visible to help people who consider that an important variable.

Yes is a good point..  after recent messages I see that it's important.  It needs a little work, which is why we haven't done it yet - but not much compare to web wallet, and it will be easy thing to do to remove this concern of the coin.  Thanks everyone for the input.
