stakes going to development does not mean to devs pockets.. I'm not sure of the actual break down but I wouldn't think anyone will end up with any more than around 2-3% at most and if there is anyone who gets that amount it would probably only be the devs but they would be completely deserving of it after working on nem full time for close to a year and taking into consideration what they have produced. I don't think anyone would disagree wwith me on that..

Ps. Devs won't launch with out multisig ether so that funds can be held in multisig accounts. Very Near zero risk of theft.
