The Clock Is Ticking

Not every project has a definitive supply, but when they do like COTI has then you do have timeline pressure. 10 years before the last COTI is distributed sounds like a long time off, but it really isn't. The maximum supply of 2 Billion COTI will be accounted for come 2032.

Currently the COTI token is 55% of the way through and has 900 million to still mint. This works out to around 7.5 million Coti per month for the next 10 years so there is a limited supply. Take into account that nearly half of that is staked in the treasury earning rewards then the amount of COTI available is very limited.

If we do a guesstimate and average out at 10% being earned for the tokens that are staked that would account for 60% of the future tokens being minted. Roughly 4 million per month heading back into the treasury which ultimately means there will be less and less each month available. The 7.5 million will be reduced to 3.5 million and decreasing by roughly 30K per month. Within two years that number will be reduced to less than 3 million per month so the time pressure is definitely on without many even knowing there is any pressure.

My first priority is to secure 100K Coti and then see how many I can achieve after that. Holding 100K would mean that there would be enough for 20 000 investors with the same mindset to each hold 100K. In the scheme of things we know many have far more than that already so the challenge will be to grab as many as possible before there is any pressure on the price.

We tend to not look so far into the future as 10 years does sound like a long way off but even places like Hive have tokenomics that will change supply.

For now, HIVE has an inflation rate of about 7.5% per year. The inflation rate decreases by 0.01% every 250,000 blocks. In annual terms, this is a decrease of 0.5% per year. This decrease will eventually stop at 0.95%. If calculated from 2021, the constant inflation rate will begin in the year 2034.

Sounds like a long way off and is really as that is 12 years and by then everyone on Hive should have enough Hive to never worry about where the next Hive is coming from. This is why staking is important as at some point things do change and stake will guarantee you an income no matter what.

I must admit I do shock myself with the long term thinking, but one has to be aware of what is coming ahead. Being aware means you can plan accordingly and possibly devise a plan to accumulate and stake more. I mentioned the initial plan is to have 100K Coti, but long term that figure would be far more as it is the earning potential of holding stake that is important here.
