The amount of NEM that will be born to you in NEMesis will be 2.25 million NEM.  As for the sliver coins, it is definitely being planned 100% but some of the fine details haven't been worked out yet.  But yes, a lot of work has been put into make sure that all NEMsters will get a NEM silver coin. 

What's the latest on the silver coins for the NEMster stake holders?

Wow! That's so long ago.

If it comes. Why only for Stakeholders?

There are no new information concerning the coins. It just pops up from time to time.

The idea was to give the silvercoins to the original stakeholders.

Yes it (the fund) was set up to provide SilverCoins to all original stakeholders and 211 million was taken at genesis to provide this. The fund is still there. Noting has been done since.
 There have been various excuses over the years such as not enough liquidity (Nem market) . Price too low at the moment and the latest i believe is no one able to administer such a complicated task. There has been many suggestions as to what to do with the fund such as loading trezor wallets with the fund/number of stakeholders less the cost of the trezors but no official response.
My guess is they will sit on this for a long time and then do a 5 day weighted vote to slide the fund into the foundation. Of course they can swing that vote anyway they choose as they have control of all the high importance accounts.
I dont expect any response this time either

The incoorporation in the foundation might be possible. Maybe after the official trezor integration there will be some movement. Didn´t someone wanted to start a community vote afterwards?

The problem with the voting system as i alluded to above is the Devs can sway it any direction they like as they have control of multiple high importance accounts and lets say a vote is announced here and then we get 5 days to vote as is the norm. How many original stakeholders will even see it or vote.
The fund was taken from the genesis block to give something to the original stakeholders so in essence it belongs to them. No one else should have any influence on what happens to it.
But this issue has come up many times before and either there is no response or it gets buried in the thread without a resolution.
