The majority will not be miners, only 1% of the coins are mined. Ideally the majority of the coins will be held by solar producers, investors, merchants. Although if you consider attaining them through the granting process mining, that's a fair assumption also.
Yes, but for now, the majority of holders ARE miners. When you think the tide will shift so that the miners are the minority? 6 months from now? 6 years from now? Any thoughts?
Well the granting process is in the alpha stage and I'd assume it'll hit a stride during beta. Once the beta staging is over it's only a matter of time before the literature is published and the grant awareness takes off. There is a lot of buzz however. People tend to like grant money even if it's not worth much in the beginning, free is free.
When you say? I'd give it 2 years before we see significant grants paid.
Although keep in mind also according to the foundations rules, only 5% of the grant coins will be released by the total number of mined coins.edit: something like that. Someone else want to make that less confusing and more accurate?
Cool, I appreciate your thoughts. I'm really excited about this coin.
