Do you dont think, that 30% Premine is a little bit too much?
And the Block Halving will come in about 8 years? o_O
I would rather bet on a dev earning for his/her hard work via creating value for his/her premine, with what's being proposed for SPEC, than have a dev lose interest in what he/she is doing due to the project not being self-sustainable.
In fact I like high premines on legitimate projects, because they also deter poor evaluators of risk from getting involved.
On a lot of new coins, I mine the same amount as the premine or more, and dump into bids. And I don't disclose it... and neither does anyone else who does the same... did you ever consider that risk?
Personally I'll be mining the hell out of this.
EDIT:
Hey dev, any idea why the win-qt is tripping alerts on Ikarus, ESET-NOD32, and Fortinet? I know you mentioned it in the OP and suggested compiling from source if there are any concerns.

For the time being I suggest to everyone else that if you're concerned about trusting a wallet that you leave your coins on your mining pool until the dev can expound on the alert tripping.
Dev, maybe even getting a code review from earlz or ocminer would be a good idea.
