GRIN: the simplest and fairest cryptocurrency

[tromp]

This topic is for any discussion about Grin that's unrelated to price.

I previously wrote about Grin's simplicity in [1].

Grin is the only cryptocurrency in which every generation gets to mine the same amount of coins,
thanks to its uniquely simple emission of 1 coin per second forever.

Phyro aka @orhyp compared Grin with Bitcoin and Monero at [2].

Adding a link that explains how we can construct a mapping of real world time to monetary units [1]. This enables us to run an experiment where time is money which I believe may be the first global, open and permissionless experiment of such kind. I think Grin (accidentally?) implemented this monetary experiment first in 2019.
