The main question is how can we trust nobody (of the creators) knows the parameters of the system to print an indefinite amount of ARRR?

Here is the concern about trustlessness described: https://lukesmith.xyz/articles/monero-and-other-privacy-coins

I thought I read a post from Kaks (admin of the Telegram group) saying that randomly selected 81 people were involved in the creation process of Piratechain and all 81 people would need to collaborate to rig the system (which is highly unlikely, and probably some have either lost or destroyed their data).

Can anybody confirm or falsify this information? And ideally proof?
