If Premine is successful it means Bitcoin, after the block rewards are gone, will also continue to be successful...
Pooh Poohing Premine is literally Pooh Poohing Bitcoin...
In fact it has been said the 50 percent of all Bitcoins are in the hands of less than 1000 people... The wealth of Bitcoin is extremely concentrated in a few hands... Premine is MORE FAIRLY PRE-DISTRIBUTED ... seriously...
Premine's success or failure is a testament to Bitcoins long term viability. I think it is a good experiment...
As far as 'new and innovative technology' is concerned Bitcoin is like a nice 1970's muscle car. The new fancy coins are neat and have lots of bells and whistles, variable block rewards, proof of stake.. etc... But a lot of that stuff 'could' and perhaps 'should' be 'after market' services... Like Mastercoin is for Bitcoin. The PMC enthusiasts can roll up our own windows...
What we need for PMC now is poker, services, more store items... ( a PMC ebay perhaps? ) More games...
If you have a service you sell for BTC please also sell it for PMC at the exchange rate... that is a start anyway.
I would like to make QR-CODE PMC T-Shirts that are a PMC cold wallet pre-loaded with one PMC... I am working on it...
Anyway lets keep up the enthusiasm...
