I also agree that neoscrypt is a good move. My guess is that most people mining Hempcoin right now are renting anyways.
As for the reward schedule, I like the idea of fartbags proposal:
" assuming 500,000 POW blocks a year I like:
5 years at 10 coins = 25,000,000 + 10 years at 5 coins = 25,000,000 + 20 years at 2.5 coins = 25,000,000 + that leaves 70 more years at 1 coin block reward. "
I agree this will take away from mining incentives for the short term, but it is a much better long term solution in my opinion. To help the short term mining, maybe if we gradually lowered the reward over the next 3-6 months from current 125 down to 10 coins this would still leave some time for early adopters to grab come coins.
1 month @ 75, 1 month @ 50, 1 month at 25, then onto 10 coins for 5 years and so on...
The coin amounts fartbags mentoined above are assuming all blocks are POW.... which will not be the case. so we can take a quess and cut the coin amounts in half.
Heres' a schedule based on 50/50 POW/POS split block generation. ie 720 POW blocks a day.
1 month @ 75 coins = 1,620,000 + 1 month @ 50 coins = 1,080,000 + 1 month @ 25 coins = 540,000 + 5 years @ 10 coins = 13,140,000 + 10 years @ 5 coins = 13,140,000 + 20 years @ 2.5 conis = 13,140,000 = 42,660,000 POW coins over the next 35 years and 3 months.
Add this to the current supply of 151,190,000, we will have 193,850,000 coins.
This would then leave about 213 years of 1 coin reward blocks. If we change the first 3 intervals to be 2 months each, 1 coin rewards would last 200 years....
Just brainstorming out loud here, but I like where we are going here.
And I completely forgot about the bonus blocks..... OOPS. Factoring in the bonus blocks (mulitply by 1.68); 71,668,800 POW coins over the next 35 years and 3 months. That leave about 103 years of 1 coin block rewards.
Thoughts, praise, criticism are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
