We're still printing them at a quarter million bitcoins a month, even if they are worth .00001 cent each.
If someone can logically answer why there is no mechanism to slow down the rate of printing then I want to hear it.
At price 10$ with all miners regularly selling, buyers have to put 2.16 million USD a month to keep the price stable. 1.08 million USD for 5$/BTC and 216k USD a month for stable 1$/BTC. PRICE is the mechanism, not printing rate!
