Tokenomics

In 2020, tokenomics was changed so that Switcheo can move towards a decentralised future. This means that the token supply will change from a deflationary supply to inflationary one. The number of tokens issued as block rewards will start with an initial weekly emission rate of 1.9230769% in Week 1 and then decay by 1.65% week-on-week. Tokens will be issued at a constant rate in Year 5. After Year 5, no more new tokens will be issued. Within the week, emissions is constant per block. The total supply is still capped at 2.16b.

The current emissions schedule started on 21 Aug 2020.
