Funding streams
---------------
A funding stream is defined by a value per block (in zatoshis), a start height (inclusive), and an end height
(exclusive). The start height MUST be after the end of the mining slow-start (to make specification of the

A funding stream is defined by a constant value per block (in zatoshis), a start height (inclusive), and an
end height (exclusive). The start height MUST be after the end of the mining slow-start (to make specification
of the value simpler).
An active funding stream at a given block height is defined as a funding stream for which the block height is
less than its end height, but not less than its start height.

Consensus rules
---------------
Prior to activation of the Blossom network upgrade, the existing consensus rule for block subsidies is
enforced. [#block-subsidy]_
Prior to activation of the Blossom network upgrade, the existing consensus rule for payment of the original
Founders' Reward is enforced. [#original-fr-consensus-rule]_
Once the Blossom network upgrade activates, the coinbase transaction in each block MUST contain at least one
output per active funding stream that pays the stream's value to the stream's recipient address for the
block's height.
Once the Blossom network upgrade activates:
- The existing consensus rule [#original-fr-consensus-rule]_ is no longer active.
- The coinbase transaction in each block MUST contain at least one output per active funding stream that pays
the stream's value to the stream's recipient address for the block's height.
