Does anyone know of any other interviews with Max regarding Quark? Would love to read more from the source.

Yes, I agree. I found Max's answers, to not just that question but all the questions, to be incredibly clear and illuminating. Seems he really knows what he's doing and there's a firm foundation behind the coin.

Also glad he answered the 'pre-mining' question in such a clear manner. Hopefully it puts that issue to rest, since it clearly wasn't an issue to begin with. I suspect those trying to belabor that falsity will now start petering away.

If Max is reading this, perhaps you should think about doing more interviews; it's the best subtle quark PR I've seen yet.

I like how he answers the "pre-mine" question so now we can put that horsesh!t to rest:

"Generally the term “pre-mine” in the alt-coin community refers to mining a coin before releasing it to the public, or where a coin has a special block in the beginning (usually block 1) that gives a large reward to the developer. Neither of these apply to Quark. Quark was released on bitcointalk, the most active alt-coin community on the web, with only the genesis block mined. During this period on the alt-coin forum, many new coins were released, sometimes multiple coins a day.

The response to Quark’s release was also a big surprise. Within minutes the seed nodes were maxed out with hundreds of connections and additional nodes were provided by other members of the forum. The coin was listed on multiple exchanges relatively soon after its release, so I think this allowed for a relatively wide distribution of coins before the recent dramatic rise in price."

There's been a lot of FUD flying around, but after reading this article with the creator, it's seems there's some real positive things on the horizon for Quark....
