How the Money Works
Flokicoin's monetary policy is hard-coded. Every number on this page is verifiable on-chain — no surprises, no changes behind closed doors.
Key Numbers
- Block time — 1 minute.
- Halving — Every 210,000 blocks (~5 months).
- Starting reward — 1,000 FLC FLC per block.
- Tail emission — A permanent 21 FLC FLC per block once halvings finish.
- Coinbase maturity — 300 blocks (~5 hours before you can spend mined coins).
How the Block Reward Changes Over Time
The reward starts high and halves on a fixed schedule. Once it would drop below 21 FLC, it stays there forever. That's the tail emission — a permanent security budget that keeps miners incentivized indefinitely.
Most chains with a hard cap will eventually rely only on transaction fees to pay miners. Flokicoin avoids that gamble with a small, constant block reward that never stops.
Reward Schedule
| Blocks | Reward | Approx. Halving Date | Cumulative Supply (million FLC) |
|---|---|---|---|
| → 210,000 | 1,000 FLC | 2025-11-26 | 210.00 |
| 210,000 → 420,000 | 500 FLC | 2026-04-20 | 315.00 |
| 420,000 → 630,000 | 250 FLC | 2026-09-13 | 367.50 |
| 630,000 → 840,000 | 125 FLC | 2027-02-06 | 393.75 |
| 840,000 → 1,050,000 | 62.5 FLC | 2027-07-02 | 406.88 |
| 1,050,000 → 1,260,000 | 31.25 FLC | 2027-11-25 | 413.44 |
| 1,260,000+ | 21 FLC (fixed) | — | - |
Long-Term Inflation
Once tail emission kicks in, new coins are minted at a fixed rate of 11,037,600 FLC FLC per year. Because the total supply keeps growing, the inflation rate drops every year:
Definitions
- Annual issuance E = R × B, where R is the per‑block reward (21 FLC) and B is blocks per year (525,600).
- Annual inflation (%) = (E ÷ total supply at year start) × 100.
Projections assume the average block interval stays close to 1 minute. Real‑world issuance varies with network conditions.
| Year | Total Supply (million FLC) | Annual Inflation Rate (%) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 424.48 | 2.67 |
| 2 | 435.51 | 2.60 |
| 3 | 446.55 | 2.53 |
| 4 | 457.59 | 2.47 |
| 5 | 468.63 | 2.41 |
| 6 | 479.67 | 2.36 |
| 7 | 490.70 | 2.30 |
| 8 | 501.74 | 2.25 |
| 9 | 512.78 | 2.20 |
| 10 | 523.82 | 2.15 |
