considering that many coins are lost and everyday some more bits are lost it may be that in the future the cheer number of bitcoins in circulation become fewer and fewer.
Yeah that's what I was getting at. In fact once all bitcoins are mined (21 million), there will be a permanent net loss every time someone loses a satoshi.
The net loss could happen every day, depends on how much BTC are lost/destroyed.
The mining of new BTC will become less every 4 years, until the capacity of 21 million is reached.
It could happen that someone loses 10000 BTC at once. This is going to have impact.
But I doubt it is all good. Every lost BTC hurts, as they are needed to keep the transctions flowing.
The less BTC, the less income from transactions.
Nope, loosing them is a bad idea.
And probably one reason why BTC wont survive the future.
A much better approach are DogeCoins.
The inflation will become less and less over time,
and if the capitalization is going to incrase steadily,
this will be the currency of the future...
