I started mining grin on a gpu about a year ago, and now I have five g1 minis running. The thing I love most about grin is the supply curve and the distribution in general. There is no more fair launch in cryptocurrency, not even bitcoin, and it's not even close. Besides that it is more lightweight than bitcoin and more private.

Indeed; Grin ensured the fairest launch ever by

1) having a widely announced launch

2) having optimized GPU miners available for its cuckaroo29 PoW long in advance

3) inscribing the genesis block with a recent Bitcoin block hash (Bitcoin block 558,653)

4) having an astronomically high starting difficulty (22x larger for block 1 than for block 61)

5) having the same block subsidy at launch as at any later time.

The first mined block took well over an hour, and the average block time in the first day well over its 1 minute target, with the mining rewards on that first day amounting to less than 0.0024% of the soft total supply.

Clearly nobody had any advantage at launch. Neither the creators, nor the miners.

What fair distribution we are talking about?
Only pro guys like you can transfer Grin with CLI commands.

You dont review other contributers work, you dont fix bugs or anyone interfere.
