We have talked about Bitcoin's distribution recently in this rag. In Issue #311 to be exact. It is constantly subject to annoying concern trolls who are usually butthurt that they were cognizant of, or wise enough to participate in Bitcoin mining. You freaks have heard enough of me expounding on this topic, so I think it would be a good idea to peep this thread from our boy Dan Hedl. In it, Dan elaborates on and describes in finer detail the argument I attempted to make in the issue linked above. Dan also put his thoughts on the subject on Medium, so definitely check that out as well.
2/ Satoshi didn’t premine. Satoshi gave everyone a 2 month heads up before mining the Genesis block, reaching out to the only other people who would possibly be interested in experimenting with a sovereign digital currency at the time, the cypherpunks. @MartyBent

It's funny reading this thread and then immediately checking out the below thread in which Vitalik Buterin attempts to 1.) claim that premines are legit and 2.) attempt to whitewash history by proclaiming that ETH was a "small premine".
Final thought...
Early 2000's fashion and beach reggae/punk/rap produced some of the most outrageous "looks" in human history.
Enjoy your weekend, freaks.
