Currently there is a debate going on about reducing block reward, and the official vote is going on right now at: http://carbonvote.com.
This is a misguided move by the developers, who are also significant coin-holders. This is clearly a huge conflict of interest. Since reducing the block reward will likely result in a higher ETH price due to reduced issuance, as well as making sure current coin holders keep a greater % of the ETH for future staking purposes, this move is designed to help only those who already hold significant amounts of ETH. The only people who lose in this scenario are the miners.
Please vote NO for reducing the block reward.
