Bitcoin’s supply story is something most people still underestimate.
Since 2020, $BTC total supply has only expanded by ~10%.
Put that into perspective:
Gold supply grew by roughly ~15% over the same period.
USD money supply expanded by a staggering ~45%.
That gap matters.
With less than ~1 million $BTC left to be mined, Bitcoin’s future supply growth is mathematically capped and slowing every cycle. New issuance keeps getting cut, while demand doesn’t need to explode — it just needs to stay steady.
Compare that to gold. New gold deposits are discovered and brought online every year. Production responds to price. Bitcoin doesn’t care about price — its issuance schedule is fixed and blind to demand.
That’s why $BTC scarcity isn’t a narrative.
It’s a hard-coded constraint, and over time, that asymmetry becomes impossible for markets to ignore.
