No doubt people get "money back". Contrast this however with a system where "numbers" (= the new "Randomcurrency") were randomly, or evenly distributed among the general population, which could be done basically for free.

Compared to that, there is a cost, if you will. n powerplants had to be built, or x tons coal had to be burnt to do all the calculations. Does that make sense?
