Darkgold has been a nice change of angle of thoughts, wrapping your mind around a new and small crypto-currency?
Total coins: 1018308
POW coins: 1014991
POS coins: 1650
up to block 60524
From this, it shows most investors in Darkgold are not doing POS, the POS is proportional. Because only 45,000DGD is being used for POS, only 10,000DGD will be added in 12 months. Therefore, even though 10% more DGD can be added through POS each year, in fact, only 0.01% will be added by January 2016.
So, there is no real need to worry about Darkgold being inflated to infinity
Next, is the technical challenge of generating 0.005BTC of fees for Bittrex every 2 weeks to keep Darkgold on this exchange. Clearly this is a technical problem, when their is only 1 million DGD and its price is 0.000004BTC. All the coins produced during the initial POW stage are only worth 4.05BTC.
For example: if 10% of coins are on Bittrex, this would only equate to 0.405BTC volume, even if all the coins are sold, you only have 1 month when DGD moves above 0.20BTC in volume every 2 weeks.
I would advise investors to set up 2 Bittrex accounts and to buy and sell some DGD between their 2 accounts in rotation. This will generate 0.25% of fees for Bittrex income stream, which will keep Bittrex happy and maintain the exchange listing. It will also prevent the exchange listing from running out of DGD. It only costs 0.13BTC to maintain a small crypto currency listing on Bittrex for 12 months, which is good length of time to develop a new crypto currency - it becomes popular enough to be successful in the Long Run
This will leave investors and developers free to analysis long term questions of finding mechanisms to increase the frequency transactions in DGD
