1000 blocks is less than a day's worth. have to make sure everything works before it's announced, right?
i turned off the masternode i had running.
besides, i'm planning on giving away the majority of the pre-mine and it's only 0.11% of the total.
1000 blocks is a ton considering that anyone else will have to compete against other miners to get their blocks. That's why you test on a testnet.
Too little too late, I'm sure it will be turned back on soon. There is nothing stopping you and you already have enough coin to make several.
A far more effective way of "giving away" the premine would have been to let miners fairly mine it. Using it to pay for exchange listings or bounties isn't giving it away, it's stealing it from everyone else who might mine this coin. Trying to play it off as if it's no big deal just makes it worse.
thanks man. i appreciate your opinion. i'm not going to get rich off of 1000 premined blocks (nor am i aspiring to), but i do need something to barter with. i created this by myself, but can foresee needing a little help here and there in the future. just trying to make meaningful contributions to the cryptosphere. not everyone will agree with everyone else's decisions, but that's the world we live in.
