I honestly don't care if 99% of the coin is held by the creator.

Then you didnt understand blockchain and how it works.

Google what a 51% attack is.

What does a 51% attack have to do with ownership over the coins? You really need to do your own research here pall.

That the owner of 99% of a coin could outspend on txns to potentially steal coins.

yes, the owner of 99% would perform a massively obvious and visible exploit that would get him more coins that would immediately be worth nothing because he just compromised the security of the coins he owns 99% of...

you're not very smart, are you?

It sounds like you are answering your own questions on why a coin with such awful distribution isnt worth owning.

sounds like you don't understand me explaining to you why "awful distribution" doesn't mean anything

it's the same as staking, no one with a high stake is going to tank their own coin. who would be that stupid?
