Issuance

Tracks the total amount of coins issued by the network through block rewards or protocol events.

Overview
Issuance defines how new supply enters the ecosystem — often linked to miner or validator incentives.

Interpretation

  • 📉 Declining issuance = approaching fixed cap (e.g. Bitcoin halvings).

  • 📈 Increasing = inflationary phase.
