Devtome Statistics
Devcoin generates 50,000 coins per block. 90% of the coins are sent to those who contribute to open source projects, are on the Bitcoin or Devcoin share list, have Devtome earnings, marketing earnings, or are Administrators. 10% remains with the miners. Devcoin is merge mined with Bitcoin.
Each round developers get 180,000,000 Devcoins. The number of shares is divided into 180,000,000 to come up with the value per share. This fluctuates depending upon how much work is generated by contributors. Devcoin is gaining popularity as individuals learn they can earn currency through work. This makes Devcoin the first cryptocurrency that is expressly made to compensate people for their open source and creative commons work.
Receiver files are used to load the addresses for payment into the mining operation. This is the first use of receiver files in cryptocurrency, and is a primary Devcoin innovation.
