With this fork that comes now with rebase we will also add tail emision. So when we reach 18.6 millions coin I think will be in 2024, there will be small tail emision in every block to prevent that network will ever get out of miner reward. What will eventually happen in Bitcoin and most other PoW coins.
Thank You! This is really necessary.
I dont know if AEON is big enough tat anyone built ASICS for it. In future since developers said they will fight ASICS with changing mining algorithm I am sure no one will even plan doing one in future. It is just unneded risk. They will rather focus in coins where developers dont care about ASIC mining. There are plenty such coins.
Today I read that after the fork, Bitmain were forced to reduce the price by 5 times for these ASICs. This is definitely a business failure.
