TEN employs an amount deflation model, and the maximum supply is 3,457,970. The maximum amount of TEN remained to be mined out is 446,252 (321,732 on Ethereum and 124,520 on Binance Smart Chain). On Ethereum, the initial block reward of TEN is 10, which lasts for 20,000 blocks. After that, the block reward is adjusted to 0.125, and decreases by 5% for every 40,000 blocks (one cycle). Mining is expected to conclude after 50 cycles. On Binance Smart Chain, the initial block reward of TEN is 0.2, which lasts for 100,000 blocks. After that, the block reward is adjusted to 0.025, and decreases by 5% for every 200,000 blocks (one cycle). Mining is expected to conclude after 50 cycles. ![](/files/-MLQMDj3GP5IYKzkMyCD) **Block awards by cycle** **ETH** | **Cycle** | **Reward per block** | **Total mining amount in the cycle** | | ----------------- | -------------------- | ------------------------------------ | | 0(Initial Mining) | 10.0000 | 200000 | | 1 | 0.1250 | 5000 | | 2 | 0.1188 | 4752 | | 3 | 0.1129 | 4516 | | 4 | 0.1073 | 4292 | | 5 | 0.1019 | 4076 | | 6 | 0.0968 | 3872 | | 7 | 0.0920 | 3680 | | 8 | 0.0874 | 3496 | | 9 | 0.0830 | 3320 | | 10 | 0.0789 | 3156 | | 11 | 0.0750 | 3000 | | 12 | 0.0713 | 2852 | | 13 | 0.0677 | 2708 | | 14 | 0.0643 | 2572 | | 15 | 0.0611 | 2444 | | 16 | 0.0580 | 2320 | | 17 | 0.0551 | 2204 | | 18 | 0.0523 | 2092 | | 19 | 0.0497 | 1988 | | 20 | 0.0472 | 1888 | | 21 | 0.0448 | 1792 | | 22 | 0.0426 | 1704 | | 23 | 0.0405 | 1620 | | 24 | 0.0385 | 1540 | | 25 | 0.0366 | 1464 | | 26 | 0.0348 | 1392 | | 27 | 0.0331 | 1324 | | 28 | 0.0314 | 1256 | | 29 | 0.0298 | 1192 | | 30 | 0.0283 | 1132 | | 31 | 0.0269 | 1076 | | 32 | 0.0256 | 1024 | | 33 | 0.0243 | 972 | | 34 | 0.0231 | 924 | | 35 | 0.0219 | 876 | | 36 | 0.0208 | 832 | | 37 | 0.0198 | 792 | | 38 | 0.0188 | 752 | | 39 | 0.0179 | 716 | | 40 | 0.0170 | 680 | | 41 | 0.0162 | 648 | | 42 | 0.0154 | 616 | | 43 | 0.0146 | 584 | | 44 | 0.0139 | 556 | | 45 | 0.0132 | 528 | | 46 | 0.0125 | 500 | | 47 | 0.0119 | 476 | | 48 | 0.0113 | 452 | | 49 | 0.0107 | 428 | | 50 | 0.0102 | 408 | **BSC** | Cycle | Reward per block | Total mining amount in the cycle | | ----------------- | ---------------- | -------------------------------- | | 0(Initial Mining) | 0.2000 | 20000 | | 1 | 0.0250 | 5000 | | 2 | 0.0238 | 4760 | | 3 | 0.0226 | 4520 | | 4 | 0.0215 | 4300 | | 5 | 0.0204 | 4080 | | 6 | 0.0194 | 3880 | | 7 | 0.0184 | 3680 | | 8 | 0.0175 | 3500 | | 9 | 0.0166 | 3320 | | 10 | 0.0158 | 3160 | | 11 | 0.0150 | 3000 | | 12 | 0.0143 | 2860 | | 13 | 0.0136 | 2720 | | 14 | 0.0129 | 2580 | | 15 | 0.0123 | 2460 | | 16 | 0.0117 | 2340 | | 17 | 0.0111 | 2220 | | 18 | 0.0105 | 2100 | | 19 | 0.0100 | 2000 | | 20 | 0.0095 | 1900 | | 21 | 0.0090 | 1800 | | 22 | 0.0086 | 1720 | | 23 | 0.0082 | 1640 | | 24 | 0.0078 | 1560 | | 25 | 0.0074 | 1480 | | 26 | 0.0070 | 1400 | | 27 | 0.0067 | 1340 | | 28 | 0.0064 | 1280 | | 29 | 0.0061 | 1220 | | 30 | 0.0058 | 1160 | | 31 | 0.0055 | 1100 | | 32 | 0.0052 | 1040 | | 33 | 0.0049 | 980 | | 34 | 0.0047 | 940 | | 35 | 0.0045 | 900 | | 36 | 0.0043 | 860 | | 37 | 0.0041 | 820 | | 38 | 0.0039 | 780 | | 39 | 0.0037 | 740 | | 40 | 0.0035 | 700 | | 41 | 0.0033 | 660 | | 42 | 0.0031 | 620 | | 43 | 0.0029 | 580 | | 44 | 0.0028 | 560 | | 45 | 0.0027 | 540 | | 46 | 0.0026 | 520 | | 47 | 0.0025 | 500 | | 48 | 0.0024 | 480 | | 49 | 0.0023 | 460 | | 50 | 0.0022 | 440 | --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://help.tenet.farm/tens-token-model/marginal-diminishing-returns-distribution-model.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
