-staggered block rewards: blocks 0-500:25 eCoins, 501-1000: 50 eCoins, 1001-2000:75 eCoins, 2001+:100 eCoins (resuming normal halving schedule after reaching 100 eCoin block rewards
So, there was no premine and early blocks were a little smaller, that's correct?
Are there some negatives people are aware of, aside from distribution not so great?
