If this is the case, i suggest that about 1% to 5% of the block reward is allocated to the development team to ensure the continuity of the project.
This should be hardcoded in the source code if possible
I don't think this should be hardcoded, if anything pool operators should opt into developer donations since all the cryptonote pool software supports this feature. It's how Monero handled it, along with a simple "donate" command built into the wallet.
Well then we need a miner with a built in Dev fee for the IRIDIUM devs.
Moreover the Dev fee in miner softwar is usually for the developer of the proprietary miner software and not necessarily the Dev team of the cryptocurrency.
And the one we use mines for the Monero team and not the Iridium
Like I already said, i dont want this coin to die off becaue of lack of funding.
