I really don't like the fact that early adopters can own a huge % of the total currency that will ever be in existence. I wish the mining rate would taper off, but never go to 0. That way people that just hold their money get diluted eventually. There's no risk that Satoshi suddenly shows up one day with BTC worth $10 trillion

Early adopters currently own 100% of the bitcoins in existence, and over half of the total that will ever be in existence. We are all early adopters, if you think about how few people in the world have even ever heard of bitcoins. Anybody who wants can join us and be an early adopter too.
