If bytecoin has been available to the people for so long then it must have been mentioned on forums like this. People would not launch an honest coin and then forget to mention it for two years.

Not true, hell some current releases dont even get put on this thread right away if at all as people opt for boards like Cryptocointalk. They mentioned having not wanted to Fork bitcoin but to create a coin free of some of the flaws at the time and add extra security; Ring Singnatures. So the coin had no need for a Bitcointalk release as it was in no way associated with it, its like me posting Pepsi shit on a Coca Cola board, they are both sodas, but far from alike.

So then you are saying thousands of people who were early users of cryptocurrency were mining bcn and not a single one of them made a single peep about it? I'm very sorry but that is not believable.

Something very scammy going on. I hope you people don't burn too many folks who can't afford to lose much.

I suggest you read the Cryptonote interview which details BCN.

"Bytecoin was not the very first realization of CryptoNote, as there was a so-called BetaNote, which was used for a couple of months before the launch of Bytecoin to test whether the currency works as designed. This test coin was presented to a large number of influential people in educational, scientific, and gaming industries, who eventually became the first miners of Bytecoin. I believe this circle of a few affected the way the currency developed during the next year and why the information was slow to spread. It is not in the nature or business of these participants to post on the Web, so all the mining teams grew in number through word-of-mouth only."
