Bytecoin has been on Poloniex since '14. Anyone could buy all they wanted for 1-9 satoshis for months at a time.

Apologies! Wasn't aware of that fact, cheers for the info.

You know, this has always been a concern of mine... at the Monero NYC Meetup not too long ago, Surae brought up something that I have been wondering about now since then; and that is, if we got this new awesome crypto algorithm from Bytecoin that we are basing everything on and not Bitcoin's... then how much can we trust it?

That is a very rough paraphrase there, but that's what he was basically saying and he said he was going to look into it in his research at the Monero Research Lab.

I know this doesn't answer your question, lol... sorry. Just was curious if anyone knew any more about that?

This is a legitimate concern, never even thought about that. The Monero developers are a very smart team it seems, let's hope they will quickly spot any security threats.
