So when will we hit 23million? And what happens next? Hashrate down to almost zero?

Wait so there's a .3125 reward per VIA being distributed? I own some VIA how will I get my reward? I have it at Polo currently.

I have no clue how this coin (or any coin for that matter) works in general, but does the transaction fee really go to the miners? Or is it sent elsewhere, maybe to an address owned by the developers?

When you solve a block you will get the reward of 0.3215 VIA, with the current difficulty there is very little chance for a solo miner to solve a block, even with a very large ASIC miner it will take a lifetime.

Oh got it thanks. I thought there was a payout for holding didn't realizing they were talking about mining.

When do we signal segwit . I Invested 20,000 USD more into Viacoin as the code is strong and I believe that the dev would be able to take the development forward .

Maybe I'm mistaken but I always thought that transaction fee and miner rewards are two totally different things, and that miner rewards are created out of thin air, otherwise how can there be coin inflation? Of course you can program this in every way you want, to know what is really going on you have to examine the source-code in detail and that is something I never did.

That assumption is correct. I would recommend to read up a bit on it, because you're really asking very basic questions which are just a matter of putting a little bit of effort in (being inquisitive is good as long as your questions are about insight, otherwise it just seems a bit lazy). I would recommend reading this article on transaction fees: https://blog.blockchain.com/2016/12/15/bitcoin-transaction-fees-what-are-they-why-should-you-care/ (If you end up not being Dutch, I'm sorry for being so direct )

Big advantage when holding a big bag for VIA coins since a few weeks ago but I've sold it and re-bought some now for long-term investment.

What I mean that things holding for Bitcoin doesn't necessarily have to hold for another coin like VIA. It is not very difficult to build a coin by slightly modifying bitcoin core and give the coin a totally different behavior, everybody with basic understanding of C++ and public key cryptography can do this. The only way to determine how a coin really works is by examining the source of the specific coin, and yes I'm too lazy to do this because it doesn't interest me enough.

Happy you're Dutch, so I could be direct You can ultimately find the mechanism when looking at the main.ccp file in the source: https://github.com/viacoin/viacoin/blob/master/src/main.cppI think this is the main interesting part: } else if (nHeight <= (zeroRewardHeight + 10800)) { // first 10800 block after zero reward period is 10 coins per block nSubsidy = 10 * COIN; } else if (nHeight <= rampHeight) { // every 10800 blocks reduce nSubsidy from 8 to 6 nSubsidy = (8 - int((nHeight-zeroRewardHeight-1) / 10800)) * COIN; } else if (nHeight <= 1971000) { nSubsidy = 5 * COIN; } else { // (nHeight > 1971000) int halvings = nHeight / consensusParams.nSubsidyHalvingInterval; // Force block reward to zero when right shift is undefined. if (halvings <= 64) { nSubsidy = 20 * COIN; nSubsidy >>= halvings; } }
