Bitcoin supply refers to the total number of Bitcoin units that exist or are available. This includes both the circulating supply and the maximum supply cap of 21 million coins. The controlled issuance rate, governed by programmed halvings, is a fundamental characteristic influencing Bitcoin’s scarcity and perceived value. Understanding supply dynamics is essential for assessing potential future price trajectories and its role as a store of value.
Context
Discussions surrounding Bitcoin supply are paramount in understanding its economic model and long-term value proposition. News related to the halving events, the rate at which new Bitcoins are minted, or the total amount held by long-term investors are central to market analysis. The fixed and predictable supply schedule is often contrasted with inflationary fiat currencies, forming a core tenet of Bitcoin’s investment thesis and its potential as a digital store of wealth.
Bitcoin's available supply on centralized exchanges has hit a seven-year low, signaling strong institutional accumulation and reduced selling pressure.
