Miami to Give ‘Bitcoin Yield’ From MiamiCoin to Its Citizens

Oh boy.

“We’re going to be the first city in America to give a bitcoin yield as a dividend directly to its residents,” Suarez said.

The yield comes from the staking of the city’s own cryptocurrency, MiamiCoin, which was introduced early this year and has already earned over $21 million in the past three months for Miami. Suarez noted that if you were to annualize that revenue, it would equal roughly one-fifth of Miami’s total annual tax revenue of $400 million."
