What is the total coin supply
The answer to your question is very tough because it's based on a couple of assumptions. The precise amount is unknown but a very rough estimate can be given. Skip to ** if you don't follow me or want a quick estimate.
Let's start with what we know:
20278 ETH was raised amongst 3322 participants (including pre-contributors) with a total of 486 693 DAY (on september 19th 2017).
The average amount of ETH put in per participant is 6.1044 and thus the average amount of DAY tokens per participant is approximately 146.50 DAY.
All those participants also have a TimeMint address and are mining the token with an average of 0.75% per 24 hours (the 'chronopower') in the 1st chrono-era (88 days, ending ~ december 16th 2017).
Disclaimer: for the average 'chronopower' i assume the median (halfway between 0.5 and 1% = 0.75%) for an easier calculation, but i know this is not accurate because the majority of DAY tokens in TimeMints is skewed towards the 1%.
Assuming nobody ever sells any DAY tokens ever, we use
https://www.timemints.com to calculate the average amount of DAY that can be mined. Inputs: ethereum initial investment 6.1044 ETH, TimeMint 1667 (half of 3333 total).
From that calculation we see that:
After about 10 chrono-eras (= 2.4 years) the total amount is more or less reached, so i use the corresponding number in the table under the column 'valor final' on the timemints site as the total (= 545.93 DAY).
** The total supply (for 3333 TimeMints after 2.4 years) is thus 1 819 584 DAY
There are a few very important 'buts':
- be advised that the largest increase in token supply regardless of trading will be in the chrono-era we are in right now; with the calculation example i used it would mean the total supply would be 942 439 DAY on december 16th 2017 (an almost 100% increase).
- i have completely disregarded the yesterday token and i assume that one deprecated.
We know that the tokens are being traded obviously:
- if tokens are bought on the market by a person that doesn't own a TimeMint address, they can't self mine. The impact of this scenario on the total supply will be the largest in the 1st chrono-era (now). The total supply will be less than my estimate.
- if tokens are bought on the market by a TimeMint owner with a higher chronopower from another TimeMint owner with a lower chronopower, the total supply will be higher than estimated.
- if tokens are bought on the market by a TimeMint owner with a lower chronopower from another TimeMint owner with a higher chronopower, the total supply will be lower than estimated.
I probably have missed some other possible scenarios, but how the tokenomics of this will play out exactly, we will have to see.
