Krypton Supply is capped
Emission stops for good once the reward reaches zero, at block 16,293,600. After that, miners are paid by transaction fees alone.
Reading live from the network
The reward halves
every 525,600 blocks.
Roughly once a year, the payment miners receive for a block is cut in half. It is written into the protocol, nobody can change it on a whim, and everyone can verify it. Here is where the chain stands right now.

Why it matters
Scarcity you can check yourself
No committee decides how many coins exist. The schedule was fixed at launch, it runs on arithmetic, and any node can verify it independently.
The date is an estimate
Blocks arrive when miners find them. The countdown is projected from the measured rate, so it drifts as hashrate joins or leaves.
Nobody can move it
Changing the schedule would require every node on the network to run different rules — it cannot be done by announcement.
Schedule
Emission over time
Half of everything that will ever exist was created in the first year, and about 99% arrives within seven.

The final total is 14,999,999.9078 KYP, not a round 15,000,000. Each halving is an
integer division, so a fraction of a coin is truncated every epoch — Bitcoin behaves exactly
the same way. The full schedule and every consensus parameter are documented in the
whitepaper.
