So is staking supposed to stop or halve somewhere in future ?
I can't remember and would like to know as well.
I think it is just a flat coin per block reward fo eva if I recall.
Indeed.
There is no decay; however, since the CLAMs reward is not interest/percentage based, as the money supply increases so too the inflation (as a percentage of that money supply) decreases.
In addition, we expect claim inflation to be positively correlated to price. Suggesting that the incentive (reward), to claim increases and decreases with price. The idea being that in times of price below equilibrium, claim inflation will decrease, slowing inflation to bring the price back into equilibrium. The converse is also true.
The interesting part, and the actual experiment of CLAMs, is the impact of the positive externalities associated with claim inflation. Each claim represents a potential user "aware" of CLAMs. CLAMs also gives service providers, who may have distribution CLAMs attributed to them, a vested interest in the network.
What does all this mean?
It seems over time we will find out
