This may seem like an ignorant question but the block reward is "controlled by" that equation, but it is not that equation, correct?

example-- if the difficulty is 20 then that equation would be

(20+2600/9)^2 = 84,745.6787

444,444,444/84,745.6787 = 5244.45

I assume that will not be the block reward itself so I am wondering how that relates to the block reward

- from page 2 I think it would be 55 or 15 but I am not a coder by any means

thanks in advance

Right now the minimum reward structure is 1 HEDG

The reward system after block 2000 is

Code:

nSubsidy = (22222.0 / (pow((dDiff+51.0)/6.0,2.0)));
if (nSubsidy > 500) nSubsidy = 500;
if (nSubsidy < 25) nSubsidy = 25;

So the minimum reward is 25 HEDG. The max is 500 HEDG.

From block 7000 the reward is

Code:

nSubsidy = (44444444.0 / (pow((dDiff+2600.0)/9.0,2.0)));
if (nSubsidy > 25) nSubsidy = 55;
if (nSubsidy < 5) nSubsidy = 15;

So minimum drops to 15 HEDG, and maximum drops to 55 HEDG.
