Hello everyone, I try not to spread FUD and welcome everyone to check my history that reflects this. I like trying to support as many alts as I can, but something here seems fishy. If I am wrong, I apologize in advance, and hopefully we'll all continue on our way. I will try to be precise yet concise in my questions to save everyone time. I will include links as well as screen shots of critical information of what I'm most worried about to make sure everything is available. Again, if I'm way off on this, I humbly apologize.

Timeline of events:

Dev begins a twitter account on July 22nd and sends a series of tweets about the new coin.

Here is my question. The blockchain shows the first block being mined on June 24th with a reward of 50 coins and the second block being mined on July 26th with a reward of 36 coins which is consistent with the coins specs. Many coins began to be mined at 1 diff.

As of now, the link to the blockchain shows that the coin is on block 1618 with a difficulty of 788,578.

The coin specs say no premine and have a specific release date yet the blockchain shows it being mind currently. So what's the deal?

Bakeo,

  Thank you for being diligent and helping protect the ALT coin world!! We need people like you among us to help make sure crap coins do not rip people off - so KEEP IT UP!!! (Seriously no sarcasm here.)

  Now on to the topic at hand. A "premine" is defined as coins that are taken out during the creation process of the coin. Hence the name PRE-mine as in before mining. We did not do this. That is why the white paper states no premine. However; if you look at post #17 on this BTC Talk thread I clearly explained that there would be a dev mining period where we will mine between .85-1% of the coins for normal development payouts. We are also using this time period to test the network, nodes, and our primary pool vendor.
  Keep any and all questions coming!

In that case, I think the term "no premine" is deceitful, as what you are doing has the exact same result as a 1% premine. I have no problem with it, but call it what it is.

It is deceitful, in fact it's a flat out lie if true and I do have a problem with it. Enough so that I won't even look at this coin again, because if the lies start this early there will be more.

Outta here. Good luck to those that invest.
