First of all this isn’t an original idea, I read something somewhere and will definitely go pull the source. The general theme was that as paper bitcoin increase(etfs,dats etc) there will be less circulating bitcoin and thus transactions fees will be impacted negatively. It sounds plausible, I’m a bit stuck on the a holder is a holder no matter where they are self custody or third party, but do you think this will have cause transactions to drop off over time as more adoption happens on the paper side?
It is wrong because it does not make sense at all. Paper Bitcoin increases the amount of circulating Bitcoin, not the other way around. Only real Bitcoin purchased and taken off of the market removes circulating Bitcoin. Stop reading FUD.
