i must ask, how much premine does the dev now hold? i know the swap created more premine.

Details on the newly pre-mined Neos:

At the time of writing this there are 11,023,000 Neos in circulation approximately.

21% of 11,023,000 is 2,314,830. The new premine will cover the following:

* The Neos foundation will run 35 masternodes on the network for services and security which will cost 175,000 Neos. Masternode addresses are public, minimum balances must be maintained and will remain in-tact. Profits from the masternodes will be used towards the development fund, operations overhead, and for community-voted expenses.
* The Neos foundation will have 125,000 Neos to cover developer's salaries for long-term continued development & innovation, support (via skype, telephone, teamviewer, remote desktop, etc.)
* Approximately 100,000 Neos to act as a recovery fund for several users that have reported hacks months earlier (trusted, long-term supporters with verified hacks). We support our community to the best of our ability, in any form possible.
* 50,000 Neos to act as a fund pool for community-voted expenses. Some examples might be sites that charge for listings, partnerships within other communities and projects where an even barter of coin is present, hosted masternodes in exchange for services such as design
, additional development, etc.
* 7 days worth of generation on the existing old chain, in the event all exchanges haven't halted trading/deposits/withdrawals and the swap isn't complete before then.

cut n paste from page 1. So dev doesn't directly hold pre-mine, but rather it is allocated into a fund to cover cost of development.
