Well, if it's infinite it won't be worth anything. That's Economics 101.

No it's not, that is a common misconception, deflationary emission can create security as well as lower volatility. There is no reason a currency should not restore lost or destroyed coins except to create a system that creates rarity of those coins and that is a SOV type system which has not been proven to be secure as of yet.

Standard economic models do not apply to crypto as they do not take the cost of the security of the currency into account.

Yes they do, they apply to everything that can be bought and sold.

Not those in "Economics 101"
