Are you an early adopter to bitcoin? If so, your comments above may explain why you say what you say. 
No, in fact I've got more ixcoins than I've got Bitcoins!
But just because I'm on the bandwagon as insurance (hey who doesn't want to be an early adopter and hope that IXC will go to US$30 a pop?), doesn't mean that I feel it's good for the crypto-currency movement as a whole.
Furthermore, the fact that the originator quietly mined 500K in advance... just smells rotten to me.
Well then Satoshi is 3 times more rotten than this guy since he mined 1.5 million bitcoins before releasing it to the public.
