Just an FYI - If my calculations are correct, leaving the 100% annual POS in place for 2 weeks and then halving it monthly would result in a maximum coin supply of around 1131 Sync.
41.67 sync generated by 100%/year for 2 weeks (1000 * (1 + 1/24))
43.403 by 50% for 1 mo (1041.67 * (1 + 0.5/12))
22.606 by 25% for 1 mo (1085.07 * (1 + 0.25/12))
11.538 by 12.5% for 1 mo
5.829 by 6.25% for 1 mo,
...
Adding up all of the diminishing stake amounts has an upper limit of about 131 coins generated from stake total, so we would get nowhere close to 10000. Even if the rate was monthly instead of annual, the limit would still be less than 3600 total
thats the reason why the discussion about maxcoin is worthless and just a hint that someone either has no clue about that Thing OR DONT WANT TO SHOW THAT BEACUSE HE´S just trolling
good work
I agree we should all seriously discuss the number of coins available
as at the moment only 10 000 will only ever be in existance
as i was asying earlier for this coin to have any chance of attaining
it s fair value it has to measure up against gold and silver as an investment
vehicle.
Lets face it 10000 at 100 btc each is only 1 mill now that hardly is going to fill
demand should the coin be widely adopted
and one thing is for sure never in a million years would i hold a 1000 btc equalient
crypto coin over the same value amount in gold and silver in my personal possesion
thats just way to risy period
3 reasons
1 gold and silver retains value no matter what
2 you can trade gold and silver without a computer
3 Its a tangible and physical object you can hold in your hand
So we need to ask ourselves do we want this coin to be widely adopted and recognised
as a crypto currency that hold value, and how much would we reasonably agree
one sync could be worth.
If my reasoning is sound even a little 10 000 coins is not nearly enough to fullfill future demand
look at it this way if only 100 people in each country in the world were to have just 100 sync
at 10000 btc each (1 million $ US) which is a bit mad as its not BTC
then you would need a minimum 30000 sync Simple as that for 100 common millionaires
in each country to be able to hold just 1 -10 % of their wealth
at 10 000 sync only that math works out to 5000 - 10000 btc in value = 1 Sync
Will never ever happen in a million years beacuse gold and silver is more valuable
as a commodity and is a tangible currency whihc crypto and fiat will never be.
Please correct me if i am wrong in this.
There are situations where gold and silver is impractible.
Let's say you wanted to move some money across country borders. Or what if you live in an area with a lot of robberies? Or what if you think your wife is planning to leave you for another man once she gets permanent residency in your country?
Some times a rock solid crypto currency would be very much preferrable than bars in the vault.
