Please tell me you did notice that the network hash dropped from 5.9 mhash during hour 1, to .48 mhash hour 2.

I was there the minute DGC got launched, and there was no premine. There can be several reasons why the network hashrate dropped for an hour, if my memory serves me right i was getting a lot of orphan blocks during hour 2, because the blocks i found during hour 2 were still the same blocks as found during hour 1. The block generation got overrun in hour 1, because a LOT of people were mining it, and we paid for it in hour 2. After that, everything went back to normal.

There is no premine, now shush

lol, do you have the minimum knowledge of how the p2p coin works? If it has a lot of orphans because a lot people joined mining, you don't see the block rate drop, instead you will see block rate increase because of instamining and you will see the hashrate increase big time. You actually see this after hour 3. Have you ever heard a lot hashpower joined and the block rate actual declined? Go check the 96 hour curves for all other coins and find me one which behaved like this:

Are you in your dream? What a joke, when people make up things.

The facts are shown in the 96 hour charts:

and I put some comments for those innocent children to understand in the below diagram. BTW, more people here defending DGC does not change the facts. Facts are facts, it's simple.

I really didn't want to hijack Hazard's thread over all of this, but seriously, check out the blockchain yourself. I'll even link the relevant info for you.

Here is a link to "digitalcoin 1," from the block explorer. It has a value of 2 DGC, and was the first mined DGC block. Note its time stamp of 09:57:27 AM(UTC).

Now, here is the post that launched DGC. Note the time stamp of 09:55:53 AM (UTC), a full minute an a half prior to "digitalcoin 1" being mined.

Look for yourself, not through the lens of someone else's crawler. Of course, I've told and shown you all of this before, so I get the feeling you may know it to be true and just have a vested interest in spreading FUD.
