Emission Schedule

Understand crypto terminology in the context of Employee Assistance Compliance. This guide outlines key terms and concepts essential for compliant practices.

Emission Schedule refers to the predetermined plan governing how new coins or tokens are created and distributed over time. Each cryptocurrency can have its own unique schedule, influencing how the total supply grows.For example, in Bitcoin, the emission schedule is designed so that new coins are produced at a decreasing rate through a process called halving, which occurs approximately every four years. This creates scarcity as fewer new bitcoins are generated, impacting supply and potentially influencing value.In other projects, the emission schedule might involve a fixed number of coins released at regular intervals or specific milestones. The schedule can also impact decisions regarding staking, mining rewards, and overall inflation rates of the asset.Understanding the emission schedule is crucial for investors and users, as it helps to predict supply dynamics and assess potential impacts on market behavior and price. It can also play a significant role in long-term sustainability and economic incentives within the cryptocurrency ecosystem.
