Very satisfying answers. Just 2 remaining:
1. Is BIP68, BIP112, and BIP113 activation done through version bits (a la Bitcoin) or ISM (IsSuperMajority a la Litecoin)?

Version bits.

2. Are the ios and android wallet open source? If not, why? I can't seem to find any recent commits on Github? But that could be me

We no longer release the source for mobile wallets for now, the source for desktop wallets will continue to remain on Github as it has always been.

I'm personally a huge fan of open source in my private capacity and generally default to wanting to open source everything - but nothing is ever the right solution in all circumstances, it is wrong to just do things without first thinking about them, in this case after careful consideration we have realised that applying open source here just for the sake of it would not be the correct thing to do.

Reasons are multiple, I'm not going to go into all the details but in short we don't feel that anyone compiles mobile wallets anyway or that any of our actual mobile users are ever going to read the source code and that basically there is very little benefit to any of our mobile users from the code being open.
At the same time having this code open helps to prop up this toxic scam system that is the current "crypto community" and we don't want to be a part of that, as you can see (if you read a few posts above this, or anywhere in the last few pages of this topic) we endure constant attacks from various people within this toxic community whose only interest is short term profit at any cost and who have no interest in actually seeing Crypto become something that is adopted by the mainstream. While we aren't of course actively going to do anything against these coins we don't want to go out of our way to make it easy for them to copy us either.

This is of course quite possibly a temporary situation, we feel that in the next few years the crypto market is going to mature greatly, with coins like us leading the way with proper development the room for scammers to operate in is going to rapidly dry up, and at that point we might be quite happy to change our minds.

Great reply. Very transparant. I like it!

Some more questions if you dont mind (for the sake of transparancy):

1. Who has the private keys of the premine? Is it only Rijk or also you/Waterloodown? I never expect somebody to dump the premine but god forbids if it happends then we know who had the private keys. (no need for real names just nicknames is enough).
2. Who are in the dev team that can actually code? Buerra, you and C_E_D? Not sure if Rijk and waterloodown can code (i believe Rijk is the visionary/graphic designer and waterloodown is like a community manager).
3. Gulden has been marketed as a dutch coin with dutch roots. I heared that Rijk is dutch and a co founder. What happend to the other dutch co founder? Was he also the original developer of Gulden? Why did he leave? Did he wanted to scam and exit? How is he related to Rijk and does Rijk still have contact with him?
4. Are you, C_E_D and waterloodown dutch by any chance? Just curious how dutch this coin really is.
5. What is going on with www.reddit.com/r/gulden ? If i go there i am forwarded to the litecoin subreddit. What am i doing wrong?
6. Some digibyte friends of mine are saying that Gulden asked Digibyte help for development and consulted Jared for multialgo. Is this fud? What is the truth? They say that Gulden were begging for developers a time ago and now Gulden is being hypocrite by saying that Gulden will not help others with development. If it is true, why would you consult a con man as you say?
