This is a long thread...new buyers have not read it all...
Do you know that darkcoin was instamined at 500 coins per second on day 1?
Do you know that in the first 24hrs 2.2 million coins were mined?
Do you know that no windows wallet was available on day 1?
How do you feel about that?
I feel that there is a detailed thread from the developer and creator of Darkcoin on how the coin started
