After Block # 2102400 , Mint will start 10% rate.

Final 5% rate starts at block #3153600.

How did you come up with those specific block numbers? What methodology are you using to calculate and determine that?

Right now, according to my revised estimates, the 10% annual rate will start around ~November 3rd

Last time, the blockchain froze when this happened... and Supasonic patched it really quickly and we moved on. Is the blockchain freezing to be expected again this time, or is that all completely patched now?

   int64 nRewardCoinYear;

   nRewardCoinYear = MAX_MINT_PROOF_OF_STAKE;

   if(nHeight < YEARLY_BLOCKCOUNT)
      nRewardCoinYear = 4 * MAX_MINT_PROOF_OF_STAKE;
   else if(nHeight < (2 * YEARLY_BLOCKCOUNT))
      nRewardCoinYear = 3 * MAX_MINT_PROOF_OF_STAKE;
   else if(nHeight < (3 * YEARLY_BLOCKCOUNT))
      nRewardCoinYear = 2 * MAX_MINT_PROOF_OF_STAKE;

2*1051200 = 2102400
3*1051200 = 3153600

The Freeze up was caused by a quirk from the PoW Phase to the best of understanding and should not effect , the future interest rate changes. Roboguy fixed that problem after Rent_A_Ray helped him.
PressTab fixed the timewarp problem. To be honest , Supasonic has not fixed any major issues yet, but he has made a lot of commits to the source code.

However always wise to keep an eye on the explorers when that block # hits just to be safe.

Right now, according to my revised estimates, the 10% annual rate will start around ~November 3rd
If the blockchain keeps 3 blocks per minute that is 45 days from yesterday , and technically our numbers ~ match (~3 days difference). But it is dependent on the blocks generated when Mint arrives at the block #, but the block # itself is predefined in source code.
