Hello, can someone please let me know, How many shadow coins in total are to be released I believe there are nearly 6.5 million in circulation at this time?
Thanks
Shadow uses Proof of Stake (PoS) to secure the network. With that comes a 2% annual growth that goes to "stakers" who process transactions. So to answer your question about total coins to be released, the current supply is 6.4+ million and that grows by 2% annually.
Thanks for the explanation exactly what I wanted to understand.
Is this not modified by conversions to sdt? Eg total supply and stakeable = Sdc - anon tokens eg sdt? If so, and to my current understanding, available SDC is quite a bit lower than 6.5 million.
That is correct. Shadow also does not stake, only SDC.
The 2% annual growth, is only on SDC, so the more Shadow, the less inflation.
