+      Wownero’s emission is capped and supply is finite. Wownero is a fairly
+      launched coin with no premine. It’s not a fork of another blockchain. With
+      its own genesis block there is no degradation of privacy caused by ring
+      signatures using different participants for the same transaction outputs.
