Nope, big bang neither predicts DM nor its nature.

Exactly! The Big Bang paradigm is impotent when it comes to the dark
matter. It did not predict it in the first place, and it vaguely
retrodicts mythological particle-mass CDM.

But let us allow nature to answer this question. I expect that the
highly definitive (prior, quantitative, testable and non-adjustable)
predictions of the Discrete Fractal paradigm will be vindicated, and I
argue there is prelininary evidence that provides significant support
for my expectation. Nature speaks louder than empty words!

Where can we see the CMB angular power spectrum as
predicted by your Discrete Fractal Paradigm? If there
is structure at very large scales as is basic to the
fractal nature, it should show up as a difference in
that spectrum. Compare your prediction with WMAP and
show it is better than GR with a non-zero cosmological
constant and you might get some attention.

If you understand the Discrete Fractal paradigm, you will realize two
things quite quickly.

1. If we could suddenly increase our observational capabilities by a
factor of 10, we would still be extremely far away from observing the
next scale at which fundamental inhomogeneity reappears.

2. The basic, well-tested, properties of the local Hubble Bubble bang
are part of the Discrete Fractal paradigm. The DF paradigm does not
dispute the bang, the microwave background radiation, global expansion
of the Hubble Bubble, evidence for high-energy plasma-like turbulence
within the Hubble Bubble, etc. It does say, however, that it was most
certainly not the Universe that went "Bang!", but rather just one
metagalactic system on the next higher Scale of nature's unbounded
discrete fractal hierarchy.

The dark matter, which comprises most of the matter in the observable
universe, offers the critical test of the two paradigms. This is where
they say radically different things, and this is where one will succeed
and one will be recognized as seriously incomplete.
