Ethereum is equipped with a disinflationary mechanism to control the rate of new ETH supply issuance, which is currently capped at an additional 16 million ETH a year. The intuition behind this was to prevent arbitrary creations of money, potentially leading to hyperinflation or manipulation. Miners who successfully confirm a transaction and upload it to the blockchain receive block rewards for their effort, providing an incentive and attributing to the exponential increase in network usage. Block rewards began at 5 ETH, decreased to 3 ETH after the Byzantium hard fork, and decreased to the current reward of 2 ETH after the Constantinople hard fork.27 Like Bitcoin, Ethereum miners may also be paid additional amounts of ETH to account for transaction fees. FIGURE 4: ETHEREUM PROPOSED MINING REWARD TIMELINE28 Since inception, the history of block rewards is as follows29: • Block #0 to Block #4,369,999: 5 ETH • Block #4,370,000 to Block #7,280,000: 3 ETH (changed via EIP-649) • Block #7,280,000 to now: 2 ETH (changed via EIP-1234) 27. “The Thirdening: What You Need to Know.” Consensys.
