🌙 Bitcoin History — Bitcoin's Fixed Supply There will only ever be 21 million Bitcoin. Ever. This isn't a policy. It's code. It can technically be changed, but doing so would require convincing every node on the network to adopt the change — a nearly impossible political feat that would destroy Bitcoin's core value proposition. About 19.8 million BTC have already been mined. Roughly 3-4 million are believed to be permanently lost — burned wallets, forgotten keys, Satoshi's untouched coins. The real circulating supply may be closer to 15 million. The last Bitcoin will be mined around the year 2140. 🤔 Bitcoin's fixed supply is its most radical feature — no central bank can inflate it away. But after the last halving, miners will only earn fees. Do you think fee revenue will be enough to secure the network in 100 years? #Bitcoin #Nostr #Cypherpunk
