Congress states in their report
BITCOIN IS SIMILAR TO A GOLD STANDARD
WOW
This is from congress report thats huge news
Therefore, the supply of Bitcoins does not depend on the monetary policy of a virtual central bank. In this regard, although a fiat currency, the Bitcoin systems operation is similar to the growth of money under a gold standard, although historically the amount of gold mined was more erratic than the growth of the supply of Bitcoins is purported to be. Depending on ones perspective this attribute can be a virtue or a vice.
