By year twelve emission is under 1% a year and shrinking. Who pays for hashrate then?" Status: Conceded by decision, stated in the design doc. -Answer: True, and the design doc records the choice: "A 1% tail is the Monero model and the safer choice for security on its own." The argument for the cap is that Igneum miners keep earning from in-chain proving fees and external jobs after emission fades, which Monero's miners cannot, and that a hard cap is the number miners trust. Year 10 emission is about 31 million IGN a year, 0.8% of supply, approximate, roughly where Bitcoin was at its own year 10. Whether fee income replaces emission is unknowable today. A tail could be added by a 90% miner-signalled upgrade; nothing in the design prevents it. +Answer: True, and the design doc records the choice: "A 1% tail is the Monero model and the safer choice for security on its own." The argument for the cap is that Igneum miners keep earning from in-chain proving fees and external jobs after emission fades, which Monero's miners cannot, and that a hard cap is the number miners trust. Emission in years 9 and 10 is 62.5 million IGN a year, 1.6% of supply; in years 11 and 12 it is 31.25 million, 0.8%. Bitcoin's inflation at its own year 10 was about 3.7%, approximate.
