Now have come with a simple question that will strike some good discussion here , and hope as time goes more related topic like this will come . So just like the title implies , we all know that the theoretical maximum bitcoin supply is 21M BTC . But will it ever actually reach that number ?
please drop your opinions .
Yes, the maximum limit of bitcoin is 21 million, but in reality, even if that number is fully mined, not all the coins will reach us. Because many bitcoins have already been lost due to forgotten private keys, damaged hard drives, sent to the wrong address, etc.
So theoretically there may be 21 million, but there will be fewer usable Bitcoins. And this is what makes bitcoin even more expensive and scarce. Such questions force us not only to imagine, but also to think deeply.
