250 + 200 + 10 = 500 ? The premine is
250k. You can use the shift binary to check every block starting from genesis.
./shift-bin dump 0

This is not an insult, but how the hell is 250+200+10=500? It's 460, you don't need calculus for that...lol
Don't dwell on the premine so much, if the total pow coins end up being 2 million, then that's just 12.5%. Compare to Ethereum, most of the coins are IPO/ICO are way over 50% (just being nice, more like 90% of the current total). It's either a partial premine and/or an IPO/ICO, projects do cost some capital to start and/or maintain.
The problems with all cryptos, including BTC, is adoption, practical usage, simplicity and gross power emissions (ie. gpu mining, asic, etc aren't very eco friendly). Some have transparency issues that create trust issues, possible ponzi schemes...
