  Undecided Ok... in the spirit of being humble - I can get caught up in the details...  My bad guys.  So a premine did not happen, but a private mining period does exist which did reference.  I can see how it could be mistaken for a premine, and bad blood could flow from it.  I have edited the first post in the thread to a standard Announcement and it does reference a private mining period.  Hopefully this will help clear up any future issues.

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.

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?

How will you give back to the crypto community if we support this?

Great question!!  We are planning some giveaways, and a few bounties as well for projects - Like a MAC wallet, additional nodes, even pictures with our tee-shirts on in random places.  (Yeap - free tee-shirts coming.  I hope you're planning on attending a few conferences...)  We are also working with larger miners to get on board and stay on board to ensure the stability and security of our network.  This way we can avoid ANY fork in our blockchain.

I've been accumulating bullion for years now, and never had a good purpose to put it toward other than sitting in a safe.  The bullion can be accessed by me as the creator of the coin, and me alone.  There are three separate storage sites for the reserves. One private location, one bank deposit box, and one gold vault facility which is independently audited yearly.  Based on this coins progression we will also submit ourselves to an independent audit by a CPA firm on yearly basis.  Our parent company who has provided the working capital for this project will require us to be audited anyway.   
  Keep the questions coming guys. We will be as transparent as possible during this launch and through the life of the coin.  We need your support as a community and as miners in order to help us change the crappy state of finances in this country.  Our goal is to help further legitimize digital currency as a whole, and this will be a huge step in that direction.  We truly appreciate the support, and we welcome constructive criticism.  We are only 11 days away from launch!!!!!  This is gonna be BIG!!!

Where does the capital to purchase the reserve come from? Are you going to pay for the gold that backs the coins we mine?
Initially I am providing all bullion reserves for the coin.  Once there is an established value of the coin it will become self sufficient.  We will be selling some of the coins that we mine over the long term as "certified clean coins" much the same as with "clean" Bitcoins, which are sold at a premium to investors, and mutual funds.

Can you provide proof that the reserve exists? Where is it located? Who can access it? Is it secured? Is there an escrow arrangement?

I love the background on that picture. Run down and everything. It seems like they sold their house or something to buy all those GPUs, lol.

GPUs don' need no fancy backgrounds! As long as its cool and the power supply is stable GPUs are happy to do their job.
Tho I've seen this picture in late 2013 and it was cool back then. Not so cool nowadays, just a pile of garbage that generates close to 0 profit  Undecided
Still good to hit the launch of x11/13/15 coins  Wink
