bytecoin devs don't look like a crazy people. how stupid should they be to kill the coin by flooding the market with all the coins you claim they have after they put a lot of effort to it. I read their blog and messages and an interview. they don't sound like dumb people. What will they do with 82%?!
Maybe it's an NSA honeypot to trap dark market users and terrorists. They want to hold on to their 82% so they can deanonymize everyone who thinks they are actually anonymous.
It's a good plan.

Are you sure those 82% coins can be used to trace any other transactions?
Mathematically speaking, It's possible with a high probability to do it. So, yes, it's possible.
This applies to any cryptonote coin and since it's impossible to know who owns coins and in what amount, this seems to be a
major drawback for all the cryptonote coins.
And let me say that Monero, Dashcoin, and the like are also affected. Yes, you can say that Monero has a more fair distribution but in the end you can't demonstrate the distribution of these coins so you end up with the same trust problem.
Let's keep calm and learn more about it.
