# Inflationary (no total coin limit) cryptocurrency where miners keep all new coins

(Asked by: username_0 on 2013-11-16)

Is there an inflationary cryptocurrency with following features?

1. No fixed limit on total coins (coins will be emitted forever).
2. Miners are the only source of new coins.
3. Mining reward (new coins) go all to miners.

I found several inflationary ones like Freicoin or Devcoin, but they seem to have various hybrid models where newly mined coins are (at least partially) transferred to other subjects than miners (various foundations, developers etc.).

PPCoin and its offspring NovaCoin have an infinite money supply - even though the reward for blocks gets diminished over time (as in Bitcoin et al.), as the money supply increases there will be more and more coins offered as reward for simply hoarding the coin.

There are also built-in deflationary mechanisms for *destroying* coins with every transaction, so hopefully the money-supply would self-adjust: increasing or expanding as needed, depending on how much it's actually used.
