XNM follows a yearly halving schedule. The multiplier is applied to every XenBlock found. In the first year, miners receive a reward of 10 XNM for each block they find. In the second year, the reward for discovering a block is reduced to 5 XNM, and so on. Est. total supply amounts to 620M XNM after year 15.
By offering XNM rewards to miners for their computational efforts, staking incentives are established that contribute to the protocols sustainability. XNM can be staked to earn XN yield on the X1 blockchain. Additionally, XNM serves further purposes in decentralized computing and other potential applications, enhancing its utility.
Consequently, XenBlocks operates as a hybrid of Proof of Stake (PoS) and Proof of Work (PoW), with its PoW aspect resembling Bitcoin's mining process through the resolution of cryptographic challenges and the discovery of specific hashes. Incorporating staking mechanisms, however, helps to alleviate selling pressure from miners.
