# Coal: Cut emissions by 50%?
## Summary
This proposal halved the Coal token emission rate from 15.625 to 7.8125 per minute (22,500 to 11,250 per day), reducing annual inflation from approximately 110% to 56%. The proposal also established a framework for bi-monthly decision markets to guide future emission rate adjustments, replacing the original post-launch schedule that was intended as temporary.

## Significance
This represents Coal's first major governance decision using futarchy to manage token economics. The proposal demonstrates futarchy being used for dynamic monetary policy adjustment rather than one-time decisions. By establishing bi-monthly decision markets for emission rates, Coal is implementing continuous governance over a critical economic parameter.
The original emission schedule included automatic halvings at 5% circulating supply increases, but this was explicitly temporary. Moving to market-governed adjustments represents a shift from algorithmic to futarchic monetary policy.

## Full Proposal Text
*Source: futard.io, tabled 2024-11-13*
Under the current schedule, the target emission rate halves with each 5% increase in the circulating supply. Following six halvings, the current emission target is 15.625 per minute (22,500 per day), resulting in an approximate annual inflation rate of 110%.
According to this schedule, the next halving will occur at a circulating supply of 7,350,000, lowering the emission target to 7.8125 per minute (11,250 per day) and reducing the annual inflation rate to about 56%.
This schedule was initially established after launch as a temporary framework and was never intended to be a long-term solution.
Moving forward, we'll conduct bi-monthly decision markets to guide adjustments to the emission rate.
**Details:**
If this proposal passes, the emission rate will be fixed at a target of 7.8125 per minute. If it fails, the rate will remain at the current target of 15.625 per minute.
A follow-up decision market will be held in early January, approximately two months from now, to determine the next rate adjustment.
