The initial difficulty parameters for Zclassic were set low.  Difficulty adjusts each block, but it does appear that an early adopter managed to mine 84 blocks.  I was not the lucky miner.  It was probably someone reading this thread.  If I had known people would bring that much solving power to the network that fast, I would have made the initial difficulty a little higher. Because I didn't know how much miners would participate, I kept the default setting low because it re-adjusts each block anyway.  The exact code was made publicly available before the launch.

You can see the blocks here now that we have a block explorer:  Sorty by height ascending: https://classic.zcha.in/blocks

Placebo is complaining simultaneously that:

1. It's unfair an early adopter mined coins with no existing market and made a lot of money because they are now worth a lot.

2. Zclassic coins will be worthless because clearly Zcash keeps losing value (nevermind their increasing rate of block rewards, high starting difficulty, and 20% tax).

If you don't like that, please fork the coin, start the difficulty out high, give everyone 4 weeks advance notice, and see how easy it is to get miners on board.

It is my belief that a coin should reward early adopters, not the other way around.  If you don't like something about Zclassic, don't use it.  It's that simple.

If you think the starting parameters in the code were bad, fork it and start a new coin.  That's what I did.

ZEC, ZCL.....
ETH, ETC.....
Developers can make 1M coins, clones but that will not change fact, that those coins dont have future.
If miners will not stop dimping and destroying coins for low profit, CC mining will die and we will have only
POS, ICO or coins that wont be able to mine.
Miners stop thinking only for getting back invested money for rigs, paying electricity cost and get profit for 2 beers a day.
For any coin not only ZEC, ZCL, ETH, ETC...... miners are motor of coin and without us, tere is not transactions.
On exchanges are always people who want to make profit with any coin, but they are making profit, becauase they know
they dont need to offer bigger price for any coin, because is a lot of stupid miners who will sell them cheap.
If miners will start thinking different things could change in our profit, becauese there will be always buyers.
Keep 50% mined coins on long term if ou already need to sell for pay electrycity and drink beer.
Keep them for long tern and dont sellthen under price. Hold sell orders and in some time you will sell coins
 on better price what will give you more profit.
MINERS UNITE AND START MAKING PROFIT!!!!!!!

So long  .
Devs must do something with it.
