The BitGun lvl is meant to be dynamic and either fall to support the price or rise to support the miners when the price is strong.
Right now the price is at its lowest, so the BitGun lvl is also playing between the 2 lowest lvls.
That is, the coin varies between 1 and 2 level BitGun? And how is this reflected in the size of payments for masternode rewards? how many coins the first level gives we know, and how many gives level 2?
lvl1 pays 3.8 and lvl2 pays 4.7 XDNA per block.
You can find details for all 15 lvls here:
https://xdna.io/bitgun however after the fork, each month the block reward is reduced by about 7%, similar to how halving works in other projects
So far we've seen 1 reduction.
Is it possible that in a year it will be impossible to earn anything at all? What is the point then?
It's important for all coins to have a reduction in the produced amount, it's necessary to create scarcity and increase the value.
Bitcoin for example has a halving (-50% in block reward) every 4 years or so. However this doesn't make the coin unobtainable, but the opposite!
Since after every halving BTC's price is more that doubled, it becomes more profitable to mine.
However Bitcoin is meant to be PoW and minable forever, XDNA on the other hand will become PoS in about 2.5 years, PoW phase is meant to last for about 3 years in total and it will experience only 2 "halvings", one every year.
However, instead of halving (-50%) the reward every 12 months, XDNA is reducing it by roughly 7% every month with the outcome being a 50% reduction after a year and another 50% on the 2nd year, totaling a 75% reduction after 2 years.
You can find a detailed table in the article I shared above (
https://steemit.com/crypto/@hitmancro/xdna-has-implemented-hard-fork).
As you can see there, the reduction is smaller in the first BitGun levels and bigger on the higher levels.
