Dear Community (Important):

We need to finalize our decision on PoS staking rate of the coin. We put this up for debate many pages ago and a lot of you shared your ideas. I will try to summarize:

The majority of you invested in the coin mainly of its high stake rate in the first year and named it as its main feature: therefore we will honour it.
However, a lot of you raised concerns about the future and sustainability of the coin with a very high interest rate, which is a valid point. The original developer did not think about the future of the coin, and we don't think his decisions were in the interest of long term survival of the coin
Sudden change in the staking rate is NOT good for the coin as it creates a sudden change of its most significant specitication.

What I proposed a few pages ago:

I personally think a swift change PoS rate from 70-100% to 2-5% is not a good idea, it's a very big change for a coin and its specification. I very much prefer a more slow gradual decrease on shorter intervals (e.g. instead of jumping from 100% in year 1 to 2% in year 2, we can do a slow decrease every 1-2 months until we get to 2% within 2-3 years).

I don't think the original developer thought about the long-term PoS issues of the coin, this is evident from the code he wrote but this is something that we need to decide.

And you guys mostly seemed to agree.

Details will be like this:

Coins now: 171,000,000

Year 1, Month 1-2 : 100% - 199,500,000 AC
Year 1, Month 3-4 : 80% - 226,100,000 AC
Year 1, Month 5-6 : 60% - 248,710,000 AC
Year 1, Month 7-8 : 40% - 265,290,666.6 AC
Year 1, Month 8-10: 30% - 278,555,200 AC
Year 1, Month 10-12: 20% - 287,840,373.3 AC. This is end of Year 1
Year 2, Month 1-2 : 15% - 295,036,382 AC
Year 2, Month 3-4 : 10% - 299,953,655 AC
Year 2, Month 5-6 : 8% - 303,953,037 AC
Year 2, Month 7-8 : 6% - 306,992,568 AC
Year 2, Month 8-10: 4% - 309,039,185 AC
Year 2, Month 10-12: 3% - 310,584,381 AC. This is the end of Year 2
Year 3: 2% - 316,796,068
Year 4: 2%
...
Year 10: 2% - 363,899,103 AC
Year 100: 2% - 2,162,700,201 AC

Note: These numbers are the maximum, if 100% of the coins stake all the time. This will not be the case obviously. So the actual total coin numbers will be significantly less but there is no way to know as we don't know what percentage will stake. This new staking system will be unique to our coin too, adding innovation to our investments!

I ask to postpone other discussions now to when we agreed to PoS staking rate, as this is what we need to decide on urgently. We can't do a poll as the thread is not self-moderated. That was essential for building trust.

Please let us know if you agree with this, and of course (even more importantly), if you disagree.

Agree.
