Primary Account

10,000,000 Creative Coin will go to the @creativecoin account and can be used as the team sees fit to maintain the quality of the platform which will include the account @notcreative which will be used for posts with improper usage of the creativecoin tag.

Airdrop

The Creative Coin team will provide an airdrop to approximately 4500 accounts. We worked from a list of under 50,000 accounts that have been active in the last two months. We applied blacklists from trusted sources. We manually removed known multi accounts and focused on authors creating content that fits our platform niche. The potential max value is 20,000,000 Creative Coin. The initial drop will be an equal split among the approximately 4500 accounts

Ongoing Distribution (Faucets)

All financial systems relying on currency requires faucets for the currency as well as sinks. A faucet is how the currency enters the system. A sink is how it is removed from the system. Creative Coin will have 2 primary faucets that stem from token inflation: Proof of Brain and Mining.

Overall Inflation of Creative Coin will have an initial target inflation of 10% and decline every year by 1% until it reaches 4% and it will stay at 4% inflation.

Overview:
Initial Maximum Supply 100,000,000 Creative Coin
Initial annual inflation 10,000,000 (if all coins sold)
Distribution:
Proof of Brain: 75%
Mining: 15%
Management Team: 10%

Proof of Brain: 75% of inflation will occur through content creation and curation rewards on chain.

Proof of Management: 10% of annual inflation goes to @creativecoin for administrative tasks and to cover project and network expenses into the future.

Proof of Mining 15% of the inflation can be mined. Mining rewards are once an hour. 10 separate distributions are made every hour to accounts that have staked (Mining Token Name TBD).

Token Redemption (sinks)

Tokens can initially be redeemed for 1 of three things: promotion and advertisement.

Ads Banner advertisement opportunities will exist on the platform.

Post Promotion Users can promote posts on the site by burning Creative Coin.
