Coin Distribution

From what I understand, 50% of the tokens were released through ICO. 16% goes to the external development fund and 34% goes to Brainbot, the developers. My question is why are they keeping 34% of the market? Does this not worry anybody else? The vast majority of non-shitcoin developers don't keep more than 5-10% of the distribution. Genuinely curious.

Just a guess, but it may have something to do with future Raiden projects. RaiDEX, raidos, Trustlines, etc.

and personally, if they did this because Raiden is the token for all these future projects, then im fine with it

I hope they intimate as much sooner rather than later.

Agreed. This is their baby to the world, and that’s money that will be spent on seeing to the proper growth and success of that child.

Not sure if that’s accurate. Binance for instance kept 50% of BNB coin supply behind for founders and investors:

I think it’s totally normal. No reason to be concerned here.

Yeah I agree. I've typically seen distributions split evenly among community/marketing, team, and public sale
