*最大的数字资产比特币（BTC）的供应有限，长期以来一直是投资者和发烧友讨论的主题。

* Now, Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley has brought fresh attention to what many consider the most defining feature of the top coin, its scarcity.

*现在，Bitwise首席执行官Hunter Horsley引起了人们的重视，许多人认为这是顶级硬币最具决定性的功能，即它的稀缺性。

* In a recent post on X, Horsley compared Bitcoin's fixed supply to other traditional stores of value such as fiat currencies and gold.

Annual rates of supply increase:

年度供应率增加：

* Global fiat monies: 14% (over last 60 yrs)

*全球菲亚特资金：14％（在过去60年中）

* US money: 7.4% (over last 60 yrs)

*美国金钱：7.4％（在过去60年中）

* Gold: 1.5-2%

*黄金：1.5-2％

* Bitcoin: 0.84% (and declining)

That means that supply of global fiat doubles every ~5 yrs!"

* On the other hand, Bitcoin has a 0.84% supply increase, which is set to decline even further.

* With over 19.8 million out of 21 million Bitcoin units already mined, the remaining 6% will take forever to mine.

*由于已经开采的2100万个比特币单元中有超过1980万，其余的6％将永远需要。

* Global fiat money doubles yearly, US money every ten years, and gold every 36 to 48 years, but the Bitcoin supply is nearly fixed, which makes it unique.

*全球法定货币每年增加一倍，每十年的美国金钱每36至48年，但比特币供应几乎是固定的，这使其与众不同。

* Economists at a recent Bitwise event drove the point home, which had a strong impact as many already understand Bitcoin scarcity.
