\begin{frame}{Bitcoin Mining Rewards}

Two sources of income for Bitcoin Miners, a Block Reward and a User Fee.

\textbf{Constant Miner Reward}
|

\begin{formal}
|
|
``The steady addition of a constant amount of new coins is analogous to gold miners expending resources to add gold to circulation. In our case, it is CPU time and electricity that is expended.''

%Current reward is 6.5 Bitcoin

\begin{center}

\textbf{Variable User Fees}
|
|
\begin{formal}
|
|
%The incentive can also be funded with transaction fees. If the output value of a transaction is less than its input value, the difference is a transaction fee that is added to the incentive value of the block containing the transaction. Once a predetermined number of coins have entered circulation, the incentive can transition entirely to transaction fees and be completely inflation free.
