1. NVC annonsed was in russian forum 2 weeks before general annonce.
Two months, to be exact. But chain was restarted at February 9 2013.
2. Before annonced NVC was premined 150K by Baltazar, they annonced that this NVC was destroied, but I am not shure...
As an honest question- what was the point behind creating NVC in the first place? ???What was the inspiration/reason?
I like Proof of Stake/Proof of Work hybrid design, and I want support this idea by alternative implementation. It was only reason to create this project. There is nothing to hide.
Then why premine _at least_
110k?
OK, take a closer look to this line again

Are there any problem with Arabic numbers understanding? Where did you find out this 110/200/rand()k sums? Repeating the same joke more than three times is not funny.
I mined this coins + ~35k for the stake, and given it to exchange as of a guarantee that I'll not dump it. So, there are not only pre-mined coins destroyed, my normally mined coins destroyed too. I have nothing else to say.
110k, 90k, 150k, 200k... Where you are got this amounts?
From smoothie & co? If you ask me, I will say that they are not a reliable information source. And that would be an understatement.
but I am not shure...
It's very easy to check, just follow the
instructions in post about destruction. You will get the address from
this transaction output. That will be proof-of-destruction. An alternative way - check pubkey hash in this transaction using gettransaction/getblock RPC calls.
"vout" : [
{
"value" : 0.01000000,
"scriptPubKey" : "OP_DUP OP_HASH160 df1669fd16ef4604f9456b046f02278da3446984 OP_EQUALVERIFY OP_CHECKSIG"
},
{
"value" : 110000.00000000,

],
It's a hash of
0400000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
public key.
3. NVC is a copy of PPC, at the annonsed time it was with vulnerability. All the updates of PPC will be update and in NVC ? not shure.
NVC network uses v0.3 PoS protocol without protocol switch rule. Btw, NVC protocol is a bit more complicated than PPC protocol, the block signing rules was changed to make it more decentralized. Full p2pool support implementation was impossible without this changes.
6. They lost their domains novacoin.com and novacoin.org
We have nothing lost, because we never had these domains. Originally we have novaco.in, novacoin.ru & novacoin.su + two github accounts. That's enough for the project at current development state.
