Please forgive me for my slow responses today, as I can barely see. I gorged on pizza last night (delicious like coming upon an oasis in the desert after eating oatmeal & broccoli for weeks) and made me nearly blind this morning. I really need to stick with my strict diet. i am squinting and everything is so incredibly blurry.

I just don't see how pretending to not have committed scams can be tolerated. It would be different if Evan stopped lying about intentionally doing the instamine instead of claiming it was an accident which I have explained is implausible because every lead developer will be monitoring his coin carefully on launch to see the coins are being issued at the correct rate. It doesn't take hours to make that determination.

Implausible? DASH had a failed launch and RE-launched.

And he didn't notice that 32.1% of the long-term coin supply had been mined in less than 24 hours the second time Huh

Quote from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dash_%28cryptocurrency%29#Launch

Within the first hour of launch, approximately 500,000 coins were mined, followed by another 1,000,000 coins in the next 7 hours and finally another 400,000 in 36 hours. All told 1.9 million coins were mined in 48 hours, or approximately 32% of a current supply (as of October 2015) of approximately 5.9 million

Yeah pretend to be totally incompetent as a nice deceptive way to hide a premine.

And I was born yesterday. And I have a bridge in China to sell you for 1000 DRK.

If you refuse to admit any sane comprehension of reality, then all I can conclude is you are a willful, unethical accomplice.

As for satoshi, the coins he controls are not 1% (or 150.000)... numbers floating around are in the range of 1mn+.

5% is not 32.1%. And because no one cared about crypto-currency, because he invented the entire sector. Evan invented only how to scam cleverly because there are many now who want to mine. And I dispute that 5% estimate.

3) Evans point in the above video is that, without the instamine Dash would not have captured the interest of its Founders.

Macno apparently deleted that post. Thanks for quoting him. Yeah Evan ostensibly realized the only way you can profit on a shitcoin is to sell out 32.1% to a small group of scammers who conspire together to P&D. Again I noticed Erik Voorhees (who already paid fines to the SEC) pumping Dash at a YouTube of a recent conference.

Whereas a coin with widespread adoption could make its inventor very wealthy with only 1% of the coin, which is ostensibly not enough to manipulate (P&D) the exchange market.

I will need to quit for the rest of the day. I'll be blind if I don't get off this computer now.
