You do realize that there are about 80 million coins still to be mined, right? It will take awhile, but eventually things will even out.

It'll never reach 80 millions

Year	Blocks a year	Max reward per block	Coins a year	Total coins
0	210240	25	5256000	5256000
1	210240	12.5	2628000	7884000
2	210240	3.125	657000	8541000
3	210240	0.390625	82125	8623125
4	210240	0.024414063	5132.8125	8628257.813
5	210240	0.000762939	160.4003906	8628418.213
6	210240	1.19209E-05	2.506256104	8628420.719

Shouldn't it be 25, 12.5, 6.25, 3.125, 1.5625 etc? (/2, then /2, then /2... halving as I understand it means /2)

Yes, I made a mistake.
The corrected table:

Year	Blocks a year	Max reward	Coins a year	Total coins
0	210240	25	5256000	5256000
1	210240	12.5	2628000	7884000
2	210240	6.25	1314000	9198000
3	210240	3.125	657000	9855000
4	210240	1.5625	328500	10183500
5	210240	0.78125	164250	10347750
6	210240	0.390625	82125	10429875
7	210240	0.1953125	41062.5	10470937.5
8	210241	0.09765625	20531.34766	10491468.85
9	210242	0.048828125	10265.72266	10501734.57

Since halving is every year, total amount of coins is limited by 2x of what produced in first year, so it's definitely not 84 millions.

Code:

from 42coin
-----------------------------------------
   if(nHeight == 424242)
   {
   nSubsidy = 0.00042 * COIN;
}
if(nHeight >= 990382) // stops generation of more coins
{
nSubsidy = 0 * COIN;
}
   return nSubsidy + nFees;

want this ?
