Siriuscoin is an experiment to create the next phase in the evolution of monetary system, from country based centralized monetary system to that of global based distributed monetary system.
From the dawn of mankind, man had created monetary systems to facilitate exchanges of goods & services. Early days currencies includes things like shells & stones, later precious stone & metals, like jade, silver & gold. As civilization advances, the need for money increases & physical type of money are too heavy to carry around, so paper currencies backed by precious commodities was introduced. In modern times, countries change their currencies from back by commodities to that back by basket of other currencies without transparency. This change in monetary system is mainly to free up the precious commodities concerned for trading/usage & cash flow of the countries. The current monetary system is flawed as the currencies is basically only backed by the trust of the concerned government, which as we all know, are not trustworthy. The other issue with current currencies is that the government, which supposed to be trustworthy, have abused the system & have been printing money like no tomorrow. With all these concerns, we have set out to find the next phase in the evolution of our monetary system. One that is free of abuse & truly fair.
Overview
Siriuscoin is created to be stable & evolutionary. To this end, the mining period have been extended to more than 300 years, with no adjust to the mining subsidy to keep the supply constant and stable. To keep the coin relevant over such a long period of time, the coin must be able to evolve as needed. To this end, a plan have been put in place to allow the coin to evolve over time, without effecting its value or functionality.
As a long lifespan coin, we have set up a system of reserve & budget to finance the upkeep, maintenance & developments of the coin. 20% of the coin is instant/pre-mined and kept in reserve to be budget out to the operation account over 500 years, on yearly basis, to ensure that there is enough fund for infrastructural upkeep, maintenance expenses & development of features as the coin matures.
