One day people will learn that all shit block rewards and insta-KGW do is give people with battlecruiser level server farms time to point them at a launch. Only person this combo DOES stop is small miners who are tired of signing up to their 5924399th pool and would like to solo mine.

battlecruiser level, nice lol. I should like to have one of those!

There are currently 3578 QBC outstanding from mining as of block 217 (daily production is 14976). 24 x 0 QBC + 24 x 1 QBC+ 24 x 4 QBC + 24 x 13 QBC + 121 x 26 QBC

You can't have it both ways, Hirocoin gave away free blocks at the beginning with a ninja launch at easy difficulty but that creates whales amongst the holders. You can't be confident in buying a coin like that if someone holds a huge part of it (Zetacoin comes to mind). If it's easy for everyone, it's a lot easier for some, if it's hard for everyone, at least there's no surge of coins diluting the market.

I'd love to see a perfect solution but there are only imperfect ones right now. Some better than others.

See, thats where your logic fails. It's not hard for people with large farms. They will take the lions share. Always. It doesnt matter to them one bit if you pass out shit to start and crank the diff to stupid levels. They can cope. What shit rewards+kgw mean is small miners will never be able to solo. At all. They're forced into their 214532th pool (moreso when you delay for 24 hours and STILL fail at a wallet)
