What's the difference between this coin and the one it's forked from (Nerva)?  Someone correct me but the only thing I can see so far is that this coin has a premine whereas Nerva didn't.

If you have 2 coins that are essentially exactly the same - because Blur's code is Nerva copypasta - why not pick the original coin without a premine instead of the copycat *with* a premine?

If there is actually anything new here and it's not just a really shitty coder copying someone else's work and selling it to stupid people so he can dump his premine I'll dedicate a few Ryzens to mining it.

So, what's the difference?

Biggest differences are emission speed is (20) - that's an exponent - and total supply is cut in half vs Monero's 18.4M (9.2233M).... those variables are present in the equation (Block Reward)=((9223300000000000000)-(Available Supply)*10^12)*2^-20*10^-12).

The values in Nervas code are 18 (a good bit faster) and 18.4M, respectively. You're mistaken about the pre-mine as well -- that is present in both projects.
