Notwithstanding the SAT was more concrete than would CENT.
Had 7.7 billion of SATs and SAT2 were created with a premine 100% bone 7,700,000. For CENT the problem is that we do not know how many actually circulating whereby a hypothetical premine of 49 billion (if we think like many, many of these coins have been lost) would premine worrying.
I guess it's very difficult to get, but it would be ideal to know how many actually circulate CENTs
We know how many coins have been created but it's impossible to know how many have been destroyed by way of wallet deletion/corruption etc. In all likelyhood Cryptsy's wallet(s) probably hold the majority of coins that have ever been created.
Any coins not reissued from a premine of a relaunched coin could be dumped to an unrecoverable address after a specific deadline.
It's been done before.
Using the same method as they do by
visiting this site and adding this:
0400000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
To
1 - Public ECDSA Key and clicking
Send.
Then replacing
00 with
37 (
Hex of 55 for the 'P' prefix) at the start of
4 - Adding network bytes to 3 and then clicking
Send gives us this Pennies address:
PDzkQdJUUQNKMPdoL54Hi5LBsp84dzidpQ
Nobody knows the Private Key for this address and the chances of happening on it accidentally is astronomical.
Any coins sent to it would essentially be lost forever and the destruction transaction id's could be made public so that people can verify the coins were actually sent to that address.
a lot of people waiting with hope
