I have been looking at the blockchain - very interesting -- I have a couple of questions I hope you can answer-
Please be honest here because the blockchain sure is implicating:
1- Did you mine for 30-40 minutes before any pools were open? Somewhere around 30,000-40,000 coins?
2- Have you staked continuously since you were able to, including when there was down time for us?
3- Did "the wallet errors" we experienced allow you to accumulate a large stash of coins?
4- Do you own about 80,000 coins? I cannot see it being anyone else but you since that wallet was being populated prior to OCminers pool.
5- have you been selling off coins the whole time? it certainly appears as though that is occurring.
6- Do OCminer and the LasVegas guy know about all of this? I would need to answer "no" for OCMiner cause he is a standup guy, but cannot answer for LasVegas
Cheers---
Man those are tough questions, but here are the honest answers.
1. Yes. We mined right from the start. It was a ninja launch. We mined a LOT. But no pools showed up for about 20 minutes. What were we supposed to do? Look at the first posts. Look at the time of the first block and the time we posted. We waited a full minute to start mining. And when I say "we", a team of several people. We mined different addresses and then pooled later.
2. We have staked every block we could. There were problems staking for others but we were one of the lucky 3 addresses that minted before the block count caused the mining bug others experienced. We really had no idea of the severity of the staking problems until someone (you I think) submitted their debug.log file to us. We can't be blamed for staking as aggressively as anyone would.
3. The wallet errors helped our relative share of the coins, yes. But see point 2. Also, we pooled our coins as a team and staked them together. This helps our turbo multiplier more than anything. It may look bad that devs are as aggressive about staking as holders, but devs don't dev coins that they don't have a vested interest in. But also look at the worst times for staking about 36 hours ago. We were victims like anyone. We've lost about 9 hours of blocks to staking problems, and another 9 just from bad staking management because we were trying to get things working.
4. We have 85,220 SNRG as I write this. It's a lot, but that belongs to several people. Those coins are in strong hands.
5. No, we haven't sold a coin. Come on. There are something like 300 for sale now. One of the devs has BTC on the way to the exchange right now. We have been buying--not as much as we would like. At the moment I post this, you will see all the coins up to 18000 disappear. That's our buy. Sorry, you missed out.
6. Come on again. OCminer is a pillar of the community. Even if we were sleazebags, you shouldn't even mention his name in a post like this. But we have not organized anything with anyone. Luck has went our way every step of the way here. It has helped that we have been 100% attentive to this coin. That's really been the difference. We are active and involved, so we are going to be one step ahead of the market. So ask yourself what kind of devs you want.
That's it. That's the naked truth. I have to go to sleep, so I probably won't respond to any further questions for a few hours.
Now, watch those sell orders disappear....
