There will be 262, 8 million beam in total accoridng to coingecko. com... current supply is only about 3,2 million coins... if this coin will once have 1 billion market cap, the price will be about 4 euros when all coins are mined. I think, 10 billion marketcap are realistic as a long term price target if this coin is successful...
Haha, 10 billion market cap ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) . Be more realistic, if Beam will have market cap like ZCASH it would be a success for Beam. So 1$ for Beam is a fair price I think.

Is there a Dev Fee for the OpenCL amd beam miner?
no. LolMiner and Gminer both have dev fees. Lolminer is 1% and Gminer is 2% you pay the premium for better miner software and the dev fees are well worth it for the hashrate you will get with these miners. You should be using lolMiner 7a4 for AMD cards. hope this helps. Thank you for the info. I've attempted to use Lolminer to no avail. For some reason windows continues to close the miner, likely due to windows thinking its a virus. I have windows defender completely disable thru the registry, so I can't figure out how smartscreen is still closing Lolminer. I had it running for 2-3 minutes then windows just shuts it down and will not let it open again. I'm currently using Bminer but the hash rate is significantly slower than Lolminer. OpenCL and Bminer and Gminer are comparable with hash rates so if OpenCl doesn't have dev fee, I might just use that miner. Thanks again. which cards are you mining with? 4 Rx580 8gb, 3 Rx580 4gb, 3 Rx570 8gb and 2 Rx560 4gb

If the next one is only 5 times bigger than 2017/2018, then 10 billions wouldn't be such a big surprise!

I had to downclock all cards, pump up the voltage and run them for a while before amending the settings to something that was mineable. I have heard, leaving them powered down for 24hrs sometimes helps too.. and it is exclusively ATI cards that do this. either that or yes, it's just winwoes being a dick. go kidnap a penguin.

Talking
you posted a link to a copy/paste coin. I asked the admin to remove it. this is not the thread to discuss your clonecoin.

Note: There is no problem discussing Beam's Founders' Reward, but using it to promote some Grin's fork is not acceptable.

Here is my take on the Beam founders reward, initially as a neutral miner - I took all of the following points into consideration when i decided to start mining Beam. For simplicities sake, lets call it 'the fund'
The fund is not a perpetual tax, it is a block reward which accumulates from miners rewards and is dispensed on a quarterly basis for the first 5 years only. When considering this, I weighed the difference between this method and if it had been taken as a perpetual 'fawcet' from each block directly into the treasury fund. The method used is preferable due to the fact that these funds (once every 3 months) will need to be utilised by the company for the entire three months until the next fund emission occurs. This means that the company will not just 'dump' those coins in one large selloff, once each 3 months... they will need to keep a float to stay in business and this is the float they have decided to use.
As startup companies always require capital to cover running costs... the fact this business is not a consumer product produced by the company, and that it is an open-source cryptocurrency freely available to mine by anyone with GPU mining rigs, makes it all the more difficult for the company to ensure ongoing funding. They too can mine Beam, but they also pay the same amount as an average of mining costs if they do so. It's fair game.
The fund is there to pay for continuing evolution of the mimblewimble protocol and the 'growing up' of Beam as a cryptocurrency and a store of value asset.
Nobody is going to hold your hand or push you to mine Beam, that is your choice entirely and the things i mention above with regards to the fund, to me, are decent methods of keeping a float for the running of the business. I am looking to invest in mining an asset with a long-term value. I appreciate that the fund will be spent to cover costs, and i wholly value the work that the developers are doing, as well as commitment to the roadmap which has been published.
I am keen to debate these points with anyone who wishes to share their own views on the matter, but please refrain from posting links to other projects, in this thread.

Please don't make yourself look like a child, hating on another child because they have better toys than you. i'm open to your insight, how exactly will "the fund will not contribute to beams success but to it's downfall."?

Some would say that a coin like ETH with unlimited supply has a destructive incentive, although in truth, it has been adopted en-mass and utilised in ways that would never have been expected a few years ago. Therefore you continue to make statements and continue to fail with the use of the term... "Because..." "It creates a destructive incentive because...." how does it create a destructive incentive, by what methods and to what ends?
