To clarify, price inflation is not caused by market production. Attributing the observed lack of inflation (eg fee %) to loss is an assumed relation.
Even if the amount of loss was known (which it is not), there remains an assumption in the correlation of non-lost coins to price. Demand determines price, not the amount of something in existence, hence the folly of S2F (1/monetary-inflation). e > On Jul 9, 2022, at 08:15, Peter Todd <p...@petertodd.org> wrote: > > On Sat, Jul 09, 2022 at 07:26:22AM -0700, Eric Voskuil wrote: >>> Due to lost coins, a tail emission/fixed reward actually results in a >>> stable money supply.
