I can somewhat understand that if we assume the date you registered here is when you got into crypto.

anyone who has been around since the xcoin/drk early days knows better.

I can relate to those who keep bringing up it's history over and over again. They don't want this instamined shitcoin to succeed just so a greedy and lying dev can get rich.


From wikipedia:
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,[28][29] generating controversy regarding the initial distribution of coins. According to Duffield, this was the result of an error in the code "which incorrectly converted the difficulty, then tried using a corrupt value to calculate the subsidy, causing the instamine".[30] At the time, Duffield was working a full-time job and coding for Dash on the side, so it's not surprising that there were errors in the initial code.[30] Duffield claims in the official bitcointalk.org thread (mirrored) that "Dash has no premine and was fairly and transparently launched".[31]

This should be warning enough for anyone with half a brain to stay away
