We now have our halving schedule implemented until the BR goes to zero. The data was calculated via two new scripts which are in ./contrib : $ ./contrib/hush_halvings 1,12500000000,340000 2,312500000,2020000 3,156250000,3700000 4,78125000,5380000 5,39062500,7060000 6,19531250,8740000 7,9765625,10420000 8,4882812,12100000 9,2441406,13780000 10,1220703,15460000 11,610351,17140000 12,305175,18820000 13,152587,20500000 14,76293,22180000 15,38146,23860000 16,19073,25540000 17,9536,27220000 18,4768,28900000 19,2384,30580000 20,1192,32260000 21,596,33940000 22,298,35620000 23,149,37300000 24,74,38980000 25,37,40660000 26,18,42340000 27,9,44020000 28,4,45700000 29,2,47380000 30,1,49060000 31,0,50740000 32,0,52420000 33,0,54100000 $ ./contrib/hush_block_subsidy_per_halving 0,1250000000,1125000000,125000000 1,625000000,562500000,62500000 2,312500000,281250000,31250000 3,156250000,140625000,15625000 4,78125000,70312500,7812500 5,39062500,35156250,3906250 6,19531250,17578125,1953125 7,9765625,8789062,976562 8,4882812,4394531,488281 9,2441406,2197265,244140 10,1220703,1098632,122070 11,610351,549316,61035 12,305175,274658,30517 13,152587,137329,15258 14,76293,68664,7629 15,38146,34332,3814 16,19073,17166,1907 17,9536,8583,953 18,4768,4291,476 19,2384,2145,238 20,1192,1072,119 21,596,536,59 22,298,268,29 23,149,134,14 24,74,67,7 25,37,33,3 26,18,16,1 27,9,8,0 28,4,4,0 29,2,2,0 30,1,1,0 31,0,0,0 These show that the block subsidy for miners goes to 0 at the 31st halving and that the Founders Reward AKA Dev Tax goes to 0 at the 27th halving. There is also some current KMD internals code that we inherited that prevents the FR from being less than 10000, so that code would currently set our FR to 0 at the 14th halving and lead less HUSH being mined than the planned 21M and even a bit less than the amount under 21M that normally happens, such as in BTC. We have some time to deal with the bug, since halving 14 is in about 52 years.
Hush Contrib
This is mostly very old stuff inherited from Bitcoin and Zcash!
Do not expect all scripts to work!
Please fix bugs and report things you find.
Hush Tools
checkpoints.pl - generate checkpoint data for main.cpp block_time.pl - estimate when a Hush block will happen
Wallet Tools
BitRPC
Allows for sending of all standard Bitcoin commands via RPC rather than as command line args.
SpendFrom
Use the raw transactions API to send coins received on a particular address (or addresses).
Repository Tools
Developer tools
Specific tools for developers working on this repository.
Contains the script github-merge.sh for merging github pull requests securely and signing them using GPG.
Verify-Commits
Tool to verify that every merge commit was signed by a developer using the above github-merge.sh script.
Linearize
Construct a linear, no-fork, best version of the blockchain.
Qos
A Linux bash script that will set up traffic control (tc) to limit the outgoing bandwidth for connections to the Bitcoin network. This means one can have an always-on bitcoind instance running, and another local bitcoind/bitcoin-qt instance which connects to this node and receives blocks from it.
Seeds
Utility to generate the pnSeed[] array that is compiled into the client.
Build Tools and Keys
Debian
Contains files used to package bitcoind/bitcoin-qt for Debian-based Linux systems. If you compile bitcoind/bitcoin-qt yourself, there are some useful files here.
Gitian-descriptors
Gavin's notes on getting gitian builds up and running using KVM.
Gitian-downloader
Various PGP files of core developers.
MacDeploy
Scripts and notes for Mac builds.
Test and Verify Tools
TestGen
Utilities to generate test vectors for the data-driven Bitcoin tests.
Test Patches
These patches are applied when the automated pull-tester tests each pull and when master is tested using jenkins.
Verify SF Binaries
This script attempts to download and verify the signature file SHA256SUMS.asc from SourceForge.
