The spin of one of the Black Holes is not in the same direction as the other and of their orbit, binary stars almost always are. If there were born at different times and at different places the universe is now so spread out it is unlikely there would be enough time for the two to find each other and go into orbit, but very very early in the universe things were much more crowded and that would be more likely to happen. If LIGO can ever find a merger where one of the Black Holes was less than 3 solar masses that would be the smoking gun, that guy would have to be primordial.

Would that be dark matter in the usual sense of the term -- as in an exotic form of matter we expect to be very different from quarks and leptons even when they're collapsed into a black hole?
