Here's Why Bitcoin's Scarcity Matters Now More Than Ever

Core Viewpoint - The inherent scarcity of Bitcoin, due to its capped supply of 21 million coins, is becoming increasingly valuable in the current macroeconomic environment where liquidity is being loosened and public debt is rising [3][4]. Group 1: Scarcity and Supply Dynamics - Bitcoin's protocol ensures a maximum supply of 21 million coins, making it resistant to arbitrary changes in supply [3]. - The upcoming 2024 Bitcoin halving will reduce the block reward for miners from 6.25 to 3.125 bitcoins, limiting new supply to approximately 450 coins per day, which will be the maximum daily issuance going forward [4]. - The accumulation of ancient coins, which are unmoved for over 10 years, is outpacing the rate at which miners can create new coins, contributing to supply tightening [5]. Group 2: Long-term Holder Behavior - Long-term holder supply is near record highs in 2025, indicating a significant number of holders are price-insensitive and prefer to store their coins rather than trade them, leading to higher prices for new buyers [6]. - An average of 566 bitcoins per day is aging into long-term holdings, further tightening supply if these holders continue to retain their coins [5]. Group 3: Institutional Demand and Market Dynamics - New buyers, particularly from U.S. spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs), are emerging, aggregating demand from retirement accounts and financial institutions, which prefer operational simplicity [7]. - Persistent cash inflows into ETFs are leading to a reduction in the number of coins available on exchanges, as more coins are being held in investment vehicles designed for long-term holding [7]. - Bitcoin's largest holders are reluctant to sell, while financial institutions are actively seeking to purchase, creating a supply-demand imbalance [8].

Core Argument - If an asset possesses immutable, absolute scarcity due to its monetary policy, its primary function is to serve as a store of value [1] - Perpetual credit expansion and the resulting price inflation represent the central crisis of the 21st century [1] - Bitcoin is positioned as a hedge against this crisis [1]
