For many months now research rewards are around 27k per day, i.e. even less than you are proposing.
Is the goal to be noticed by investors? (i.e. price increase?)
I believe this will make GRC more noticeable for investors
See how well Stellar is seen; Dogecoin has market cap ~20x higher despite ~ 250x higher number of coins... and they produce more coins a year than a total number of GRC.
Doesnt Dogecoin have a cap?
unless it changed since launch, no, it's just halving every x amount of blocks.
No, extra 5.256 billion coins mined every year - constant (13x more than total GRC supply)
I also believe this is one of the questions we have to ask ourselves in this community:
What is Gridcoin's main goal?
- To reward researchers and promote the whitelisted BOINC projects? - To have a cryptocurrency which has a "real real world" use for the mining protocol and a true alternative to other cryptocurrencies?
