It will take about 30 years before POW inflation equals to that of POS.
Is that a bad thing? This is assuming that YAC doesn't gain more acceptance/mining power and the block reward doesn't drop (ie below 25 coins per block), right?
That assumes the block rewards to be 50-60 like it is now. If reward drops down, it will take longer.
I guess what I'm missing is; why is the coin distribution a problem now? AFAIK its been unchanged since the initial launch (~1.3 years ago).
The technical decisions were made at pocopoco's whim. He has abandoned the coin since the initial period, showing his confidence in his handiwork. I thought the community might want to review the decisions after a while instead of keeping holding pocopoco's Yet Another random decision as gospel?
