KASPA’s max supply is fixed at 28.7 billion coins, with an emission schedule that halves annually. As of May 2023, the circulating supply of KAS is a little over 18 billion coins. The KASPA Monetary Policy has two phases: the Pre-deflationary Phase and the Deflationary Phase. The Pre-deflationary Phase began at the mainnet start on November 7th, 2021, and ended on May 8th, 2022. During this phase, the reward rate was initially random for 1 to 1000 KAS per block for the first two weeks, then settled at a fixed rate of 500 KAS per block. The transaction fee during this phase was calculated as 0.0001 KAS per UTXO. The Deflationary Phase started on May 8th, 2022, and is expected to continue until 2111. During this phase, the block reward will decrease by 1% annually, eventually leading to a fixed supply of 42 million KAS tokens. The transaction fee during this phase will be calculated as 0.00001 KAS per UTXO.
