The post Zcash Founding Scientist Challenges Bitcoin’s 21 Million Cap appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
StarkWare CEO Eli Ben-Sasson, a founding scientist of the privacy coin Zcash, challenged Bitcoin’s 21 million cap this week. He argued that lost private keys will steadily shrink the usable supply and proposed a 4% annual issuance limit instead. The pushback was immediate, since Bitcoin supporters treat the fixed supply as the network’s founding promise. Zcash creator Zooko Wilcox answered with a rival design that keeps hard caps intact. Bitcoin Maximum Supply. Source: BeInCrypto Why Ben-Sasson Says Bitcoin’s 21 Million Cap Fails Ben-Sasson helped invent the STARK proof system now used across crypto and co-authored Zerocash, the 2014 design behind Zcash. His critique starts from the numbers on lost coins. Chainalysis estimated that 2.78 million to 3.79 million BTC were already unrecoverable by 2017.

The post Bitcoin is Seeing a ‘Textbook’ Bottom as More Analysis Brings Back 2022 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Key points: Bitcoin is repeating previous macro bottom behavior in a “textbook” manner, analysis argues. Short-term holders are taking profits on minor recoveries — something “characteristic of a bull market.” Doubts remain about speculators avoiding future capitulation.

Fetter, doubled down on conviction that the worst of the BTC price downtrend is over. “This is a textbook bitcoin bottom; I mean every bottom signal has flashed or is flashing, it’ll be very obvious in hindsight,” one post stated. An accompanying chart showed the 200-week simple moving average (SMA) for BTC/USD, along with
The post Could Bitcoin’s 21 Million Supply Cap Change? Zcash Co-Founder Makes Bold Proposal appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
In a post, Zcash co-founder Eli Ben-Sasson proposes rethinking Bitcoin’s fixed 21 million supply cap. According to Ben-Sasson, capping the supply of Bitcoin at 21 million BTC does not make sense. This is because, over time, keys will be lost. He believes that this will eventually happen over an infinite time horizon. The maximum number of Bitcoins that can ever exist is 21 million BTC. This hard cap on the total Bitcoin supply is a fundamental part of Bitcoin’s monetary policy, which is designed to promote scarcity and prevent inflation. Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto encoded this limit into the cryptocurrency’s source code.
