The BTC "premine" was a proof of concept that a novel PoW technology actually worked before being deployed. It was a revolution and I'm not sure most of the posters here get that. Some of you make my eyes bleed.
I totally agree with you. Plus the vast majority of the "premine" has sat idle for years, even after Satoshi passed the torch. The main developer of ETH has already admitted that he dumped much of his portion.
I don't really understand this arguement, technological development is happening here.
Pac-man, which came out in 1980, demonstrated more innovation than the vast majority of what I see going on in the altcoin world these days. Hell, Ms Pac-man was more innovative than most of this nonsense.
I'm no young whippersnapper by any means. Don't try to sell me on what technological innovation is. I've seen some awesome shit come out since I was born in 1968. And if you think this altcoin "innovation" would impress someone like me who has been around a while, it's just not going to fly.
