jabo38!
why are you saying ~70% is FUD. If you add up the numbers you actually get to that percentage!?
With the funds.
Without the funds. (I believe that 4% and 6% are exchanges)
I'll also add that all funds are kept in multisig accounts and each has its own designated purpose to fuel the NEM ecosystem. Furthermore, I am not a dev, but more of a trusted member of the community and marketer and I am also on of the signers. So it isn't just the "devs" that have control over the funds. Two other marketers are also cosigners. I think that was a pretty cool and brave thing the main devs did, letting other people that aren't devs have power.
I hope to keep their trust!
NEM is in beta, but by the time V1 comes (leaving beta) almost all of those funds are planned to be fully distributed, and by then those charts are going to look even better.
