# The Daily Update

**For every new day that ticks over in the contract, these variables get updated:**

* **ETH Cost for Miners goes up +0.08% every day** based on day before
* **TITANX Mineable per Day of Mining goes down -0.35% every day** based on day before
  * this mimics the Bitcoin 4-year halving but does it every year, instead of every 4 year
* **tRank Bonus goes down -0.35% every day** based on day before
* **Share Rate goes up +0.03% every day** based on day before

This means that it always becomes harder & more expensive to get TITAN for every day that passes.

**The general rule for staking and mining is:** today is **always** better than tomorrow.

Here are the start & end values of TITAN. The daily update keeps increasing & decreasing things until the minimum and/or maximum caps below are hit. This will happen over a period of years.

***ETH Cost per Max Miner, Min & Max:***\
ETH Cost per Max Power Miner at start: 0.2 ETH\
ETH Cost per Max Power Miner at end (cap): 1 ETH

To make things simple to understand, here's how this works out:

* The "Cost to mine 1 TITANX" moves up 55,000x
  * (the cost per miner in ETH gets 5x more expensive, from 0.2 ETH to 1 ETH)
  * (the TITANX per day per miner goes down 11,000x from 8.8M to 800)
  * Combined together, that's a 55,000x price floor increase on the cost to produce 1 TITANX.
* Since share rate moves up 0.03% every day as well, from 800 to 2800, a 3.5x increase.
  * This + the thing above means the cost to produce 1 share in staking goes up 55,000x \* 3.5x = 192,500x

*The above is not a price prediction of any kind, it's just a description of the math inside of the protocol describing the cost of production over time until the protocol hits its caps and should not be used and/or looked at as financial advice in any way shape or form.*
