1 million premine, nice. I thought it was supposed to be no premine coin. Good luck.
we did a LOT of thinking and discussions regarding this among the development team before we launched, and the overall reserve has been posted on teh website for weeks. we did take into consideration the community attitude towards reserves or premines, but in the end, felt it necessary to place a reserve on teh genesis block to fund further development.
800,000 was placed in the community reserve. you can check the balance via explorer.soilcoin.xyz. a reserve in the genesis block was necessary to pay out testnet mining bounties, to be able to fund the faucet (which will be up today, with a 0.05SOIL dispersement once every 24 hours), giveaways will be set on social media this week, and further bounties for feature development will be sent out as they are completed.
the community reserve wallet address is 0x3204a79b0245c5e1d5efe39179017a1c6c00b322
200,000 soil was split between the two developers for this project. we have made our wallet addresses public as well (
http://soilcoin.xyz/index.php/community/) and you can check those as often as you like to verify that the development team has not touched their reserves. we DO deserve some reward for the amount of work we have put into this project, and within DAYS the coins held by the community at large will eclipse what the development team has, thru mining and testnet bounties already sent out.
my wallet address is 0xe46731382fbc47621a6c480d4b6118026bbbcb3a
soil's wallet address is 0xafc571db22ca80776def02150955026ff7329467
i will be posting a ledger for what dispersements have come out of the community reserve later today with an updated balance here on BCT and on the community page on teh website.
i present one last thing for your consideration, just a quote from another developer...
Evan Duffield:“If you look at the cryptocurrency space, 99% of the currencies fail because their mining is based on Bitcoin’s algorithm which was quite ‘fair’.
However, it doesn’t work anymore for newer coins because not enough distribution of the coin supply goes to the founders (the ones that actually do the work). So there’s not enough incentive to work on the project, because there’s a bunch of miners looking to make some money by dumping coins they got for free, so the founders get frustrated and dump their coins. This happens over and over again.
The entire crypto-community needs to realize everyone needs incentives to work and no one is working for free. No crypto-currency is immune to this fact, it’s just pure and simply economics in action."
