This might be a good time to clarify the monetary design behind Circles, as many people are confused about how it's supposed to work. 1. Circles is not based on scarcity: it does not have a limited amount of tokens (e.g. 21million) that will be issued at any point in time. 3.Circles is issued equally in time and in space, similarly to our friends at @duniter Every person in the circles system currently receives 8 circles a day, with an inflation rate of 7% each year. This is meant to incentivse circulation within the system, instead of accumulation
