Pure linear emission implies starting from zero. I agree coins with pre-mines limit fairness from the outset.
In terms of fairness of coin distribution, 100% PoS < Ethereum < Bitcoin < Pure Linear Emission.
PoS effectively ends the distribution of new coins, with everybody able to stake to just preserve their share of the pie.
- DennisP 4y agoIf your goal is to passively hold coins without losing share, Ethereum is the best option I know of. With both PoS and PoW, a holder loses share when the total coin supply increases. On Ethereum at least, this is less of a problem with staking than mining, because staking is less costly so there's a tenth as much issuance. However, with sufficient usage, the ETH supply actually shrinks, because a portion of fee revenue is burned. This means non-staking holders actually increase their share.
