They are deflationary - and the dev gets 1% of all coins per block mined unless the miner bother to add a special flag, I don't have problem with this but it could easily mean trouble in the future (for the dev). They got lucky the emission is considerable slower than Monero and its making up for the lack of development (but it shows signs of not being completely abandoned).
I have mixed feelings about this. On one hand, it is vastly superior to any IPO in existence, made even more valid by the fact that with a few additional bytes of code any miner is free to opt out.
I believe that perhaps it is defendable if the collected funds go to a "development account" and not just to one person's wallet.
Also, knowing that Boolberry is deflationary pushes my resolve on this issue farther.
I humbly propose we should move to a fixed inflation rate, and the subject of discussion should be what rate is appropriate. I feel like anything between 0.75% and 0.9% would be fine (but lean towards a nice crisp 0.9%)
