between all the people?
I don't see the reason why a few people who were the first could gain a big share of the coins and people who want to buy coins now have to pay for them. and why would people will cooperate with such system.
I mean I only heard about this today, I would participate earlier if I knew about it.

if everyone had the same amount of bitcoins it couldn't be money. Imagine if 2 people made a trade, this would cause one person to have more coins than someone else, which would then have to be corrected by the network in order to make sure they each had the same amount, which would defeat the purpose of having made the trade to begin with.
