Come on, think about it. You don't create a brand new technology to secretly mine it for 1 year, it just doesn't make any sense. Bytecoin was mined by several teams of miners that was confirmed by the developers and by CryptoNote.

You have to face the ugly truth. If you didn't know about the coin, it doesn't mean it didn't exist. Or gravity should you say didn't exist before it was discovered?

As was stated countless times... Bitcoin was mined by a few people too for a VERY long time. And there was no announcment on BitcoinTalk, hell, there was no BitcoinTalk.

So what? Bitcoin deserves **? If you don't know about something - it does not mean that nobody know.

These are actually valid points. Being listed on the Bitcointalk.org from the moment of coin's launch isn't a single criterion to determine if it was premined or not, and it can't be. Just think about how bizarre that sounds: a site that has no affiliation with a forum adds a coin, mining of which was in no way restricted to new users, and now it has to attribute a premined status to it based on the coin's abscence on the said forum.

The point about Bitcoin is also sound, we've all seen this chart:



Yet everyone is all right with Gliss not adding ** next to Bitcoin.
