The network tries to produce one block per 10 minutes. It does this by automatically adjusting how difficult it is to produce blocks.

Miners would just keep sending money to themselves to generate a bunch of new coins.

They won't lose any money to fees, because they won't broadcast their transactions-to-self, they'll just include them in blocks that they create.


So, evil miner does:

Gets some myselfcoins.
Creates transactions that pays themselves the myselfcoins, and pays BIG fees.
Does NOT broadcast those transactions.
... eventually mines a block that contains those transactions (they're a miner, they can put whatever transactions they like in their blocks).

Then does that again and again, re-using the same coins, getting richer and richer from the FEES+10%

How often do you get the chance to work on a potentially world-changing project?

Also how would the currency even start if there's no money and people to trade with at the beginning?

What do you mean premium reward? I thought you said there would be no block rewards.
