@ flower1024: It would be interesting to compare the graphs you have worked out (thx alot, very nice!) with those available for Bitcoin. Since much more certainty exists about the influencing factors to Bitcoin's blockchain and history, a comparison between the two would be quite telling to whether Bytecoin has indeed been growing organically, like Bitcoin; and may also reveal other stuff we can not yet infer.

Despite the impressive job you have done, Id like to remind you that your conclusions, to date remain hypothesises, until further cemented by additional evidence. For example, at least I have not seen compelling evidence that real people have created those myriads of transactions during Bytecoins stealth phase and not a couple of different bots as result of some experiments. We also know very little about the actual developers and their intentions. If the early tx activity is indeed the product of efforts to increase anonymity for later users or just the result of initial interest and network activity or the attempt to set up field conditions for further testing is unknown. I hope we see more of you and other researchers in the field! Looking forward to it.

Yes, good idea. I will try to do it, but it may take a lot of time.
