RE: EOS vs. Ethereum for Dummies!

in #eos7 years ago

Serious question: One thing I fail to understand yet is the sustainable funding of the EOS network. Where is the incentive to run an EOS node/ mine EOS? With Ethereum it's clear, give computing power to the network, in return receive the gas fees, hence network grows as users pay for it continuously. But EOS? Once all EOS tokens are sold to users the miners don't have anything anymore to generate income to pay for the servers. They basically work for free. Tokens might explode in price or not, but they're only exchanged between users who initially got them during ICO. I'm sure the mechanism to fund the network is there somewhere. So, what did I miss?

Sort:  

Block rewards

Oh, so there come new coins all the time and the once created amount for ICO, devs, etc is not the max number. Apparently that's what I missed. Ok that is easy then. All in :D Thanks @dan and maybe see you in Portugal : )

What are the block rewards?
