Nah! Both supplies are the same, whether in figures or in market interpretation. Bitcoin is able to pull to this price level because of its limited supply. Remember that scarcity gives a thing its price value through demand. Anyday Bitcoin is increased to even as little as 50 million in max supply it will amaze you how fast the price will plummet. So you know that it isn't about inflation anything. It's the scarcity (apart from its pathfinder status) that gives Bitcoin an edge.

First things I do before picking a project is to find out its total supply and then its utility or use-case. I believe a lot of people also do that. Investors don't blindly throw away their money.
