If you are in TIPS for the long haul then a 500 billion coin cap makes perfect sense. Obviously a bit of a push but there is over 7 Billion people in the world. That means if even 10% of the entire world held TIPS, they could only ever hold about 700 TIPS.

So when you think of it that way does it make sens to have a cap smaller, never for no coin ever, unless you want another hoarding coin. You have to think of the future not just the present.

Also, .....
That is the entire problem with the crypto community ridiculous crap like that, ya the markets are maniupulated its true, but blatently wanted to manipulate it to increase your gains at the expense of others, seriously money is great and super, but it is because of such greed the world is the way it is anyways, it is that greed that corrupted the current system in place, and now you all want to do the same to the crypto world, when the whole damn point of crypto currency is the change the garbage system in place.

Again though its just my opinion, theres nothing making me correct, just my two TIPS
