Gold supply increases ~1.7% each year. That means that the global supply of gold will double over the next 60 years.

#Bitcoin supply will increase by ~5.5% over the next 115 years!!

Gold is great, but doesn’t come close to competing with Bitcoin on scarcity. Bitcoin, on the other hand, has a fixed cap of 21 million, and its issuance schedule asymptotically approaches zero.

The halvings ensure that Bitcoin’s supply growth slows dramatically over time, making it the first asset in history with absolute scarcity. This is why Bitcoin isn’t just better than gold—it’s in a completely different category when it comes to scarcity and monetary properties.
