it is TOTAL COINS 1000000 not block!
in wallet console getinfo the value "moneysupply"
"blocks" : 787673,
"moneysupply" : 869637.25054900,
Thanks, I didn't realize it was based on coins. Even so, is the pace of coin generation expected to pick up? Is coin generation somewhat linear relative to blocks?
Not if you include POS. POW generates 1 coin per block but POS is dependent on the wallet size (amount) and age (weight).
the reason why we did go with total coin trigger and not block trigger
is to make sure the pow pos reward changes happens at the right moment in coin rollout
its impossible to find out exactly how much coins will exist at block 1000000
but at total coins 1000000 we know exaclty how much it is just not exactly when.....
but in average i see network produce around 2000 dmd (pow+pos) a day so we can estimate 60-70 days until the trigger is reached
