I noticed that the base block reward has been stuck at 1.200 for the last 105 days after smoothly decreasing continuously up to that point . This does not appear correct since it should smoothly decline until 0 then tail emissions kicks in.
Block height 1511655 http://209.126.84.37:8081/block/1511655.
Any thoughts on this?
This is correct.
Tail emission ensures that the base reward is no less than 0.3 AEON per minute = 1.2 AEON per block (our block time is 4 min).
The base reward declines smoothly to this level, not zero.
BTW sorry for my inactivity these days -- my day job environment changed quite a bit and it's difficult to allocate time for AEON, for now.
But this doesn't mean my interest has shifted elsewhere. If any severe issue arises, I'll try to respond as best as I can.
Thanks for chiming in. So it sounds like Aeon is technically on tail emissions now?
