15,626,576 Ether minted by miners every year. Just think about that for a second... It's inflationary and designed to lose value, just like fiat. It's a major flaw.
I find 4,855,015 ethers per year (for 2 ethers per block and a rate of 1 block every 13 seconds: https://etherscan.io/chart/blocktime). This is a 3.8% rate, just like... BTC and BCH.
Awesome news. I thought the block reward was 5 per block. Thank you for the correction. It's still being mined by Genesis, in Iceland. What is your opinion on Genesis mining?
