Block Rewards
The block rewards start low (50 EBG) as the Trade Sanctions are pretty tight at the launch (and to have a fair launch). Trade sanctions start loosening on the coin every 251 blocks (every 3.4 days) and coin reward goes up by 50 until block 2268 (31.5 days from launch) when max coin reward of 500 is reached at which point Trade
Sanctions start increasing on the coin every 6480 blocks (Approximately every 90 days) cutting the reward in half until we go into a Full Embargo and only 1 coin is created every block.
