So Monero developers are not competent to make anything valuabel for CryptoNote at all. And the beneficiaries of the Monero launch are botnet owners. At least Bytecoin developers stake in mined coins can be seen as their reward and a way to stabilize the market, while the botnet dumpers are dangerous for Monero and all CryptoNote.
Aaaand, there was no premine, there was no scam. New evidence suggests so (see Bytecoin thread, pages 102 and on).
I doubt there are two many bots on Monero, I'm 2.5 Khashes at of 3600 Khashes It is showing as network speed. I could be like 7.5 Khashes if I went all in. So, I'm one guy in a residential property. And Right now I'm 1/1440 of the whole network with 2.5 Khashes. I could be 1/480 of the whole network. So, there may be some bots but doubt it's that much.
