Tokenomics & Algorithmic Emission Schedule
Zero pre-mine, zero venture allocations, and 100% Proof-of-Work issuance governed by an immutable halving curve.
Halving Era Emission Ledger
| Halving Era | Block Height Range | Block Subsidy | Era Emission | Cumulative Minted | Supply Share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Era 1 | 1 → 125,000 | 40.0000 WNX | 5,000,000.00 WNX | 5,000,000.00 WNX | 50.00% |
| Era 2 | 125,001 → 250,000 | 20.0000 WNX | 2,500,000.00 WNX | 7,500,000.00 WNX | 75.00% |
| Era 3 | 250,001 → 375,000 | 10.0000 WNX | 1,250,000.00 WNX | 8,750,000.00 WNX | 87.50% |
| Era 4 | 375,001 → 500,000 | 5.0000 WNX | 625,000.00 WNX | 9,375,000.00 WNX | 93.75% |
| Era 5 | 500,001 → 625,000 | 2.5000 WNX | 312,500.00 WNX | 9,687,500.00 WNX | 96.88% |
| Subsequent Eras | 625,001 → Terminal | 40 × 0.5^(era-1) | Decaying Subsidy | Terminal Emission | 100.00% |
Global Block Competition
Every block is a global cryptographic race. Miners compute double SHA-256 hashes over candidate block headers; the first participant or cooperative pool to discover a valid nonce seals the block and receives the 40.0000 WNX coinbase subsidy directly.
Immunity to Premature Depletion
Increased global computing power cannot accelerate the emission schedule. When block discovery intervals drop below 900 seconds, the protocol automatically multiplies cryptographic target difficulty, preserving the mathematical duration of each 125,000-block era.
Solo Validation vs. Pool Aggregation
Solo miners compete directly for the full 40.0000 WNX block subsidy per solved height. Cooperative mining pools aggregate hashrate from multiple contributors and distribute solved block rewards proportionally to submitted work shares.
