I still think the Mantis dev is the Spark coin dev. Now that the coin is forked he will probably abandon it.
Mantis dev and Spark dev both couldn't compile Mac wallets and their main developments include some kind of interest rate system.

He keeps the premine intact...Mines before the launch and then dumps
From the earl review:
* MODERATE: Somewhat unfair launch. Reports of source being released after binaries, and the official pool before source was released
If you look at the time the first blocks were mined on POW, and the launch time and difficulty rise, it's perfectly on launch time. Also dev denied being mantiscoin dev, and showed no signs in posts of trying to give promises/ get rid of coins.Also a looot of devs have had problems with compiling a mac wallet, that does not prove much. We also never saw any significant dumps. The absence atm is worrying but there still might be a reasonable explanation. Suprnova keeps hashing at 2gh/s which is surprising for a ''dead'' coin.
I saw a lot of people accumulating this coin, so it would be dumb if he messed it up before pow ended. Don't forget people could have real life emergencies as well
