Fundamentals have been negated by the number of coins. 300 million coins in circulation - dump fest. Difficulty on 5 algos hard to maintain due to lack of profitability. Coins easely mined - dump fest. I pray to God we live to see another pump.
The growth of the number of coins is predictable and has been predictable since day 1. This is the same with any crypto currency. I have no idea what you're talking about here. If you know the coin's specs, you can predict how many coins will be in circulation at any month or year, no surprises here.
Part 1, the total number of coins:
What lead troll here doesn't realize (I prezume he does but ignores in order to further troll) is that when there is a fixed cap on coin production the actual number of coins is irrelevant.
Think of it as a pie, no matter how you slice it up, be it 2,000,000,000 , 2,000,000 or even 2,000 pieces it doesn't change the total quantity of pie you have. Same with a coin's value. If myriad would have had a total of let's say 2M coins instead of 2B you would not have 4 mil myr right now, you'd have 4000, and the total value would be the same. coin production would be of a total of 2800 coins per day and if now you could get about 600 coins per scrypt mh per day then you could only get 0.6 coins per day.
tl;dr VOLUME IS AN ILLUSION WHEN THERE'S A FIX PRODUCTION CAP BECAUSE IT'S DIVISIBLE AND CUTTING A PIE IN 6 PIECES OR 60 PIECES OR 6000 PIECES DOESN'T MAKE YOU HAVE MORE PIE.
Part 2, coin production:
The fact that the first halving is so far away ensures a fair and wide distribution for adoption purposes. Only scammers and daytraders would say that a short lived distribution is better because then the price is easier to manipulate since no new coins come into play. But a fast distribution will only make a few rich while leaving others complaining they didn't have time to understand the concept or the dev instamined the coin for quick gains or some other shady stuff, which really is true, any coin with a halving faster than at least 4-6 months is only doing it for the profits because there's no actual way you'd be able to ensure a fair distribution for your coin in such a short time if you trully intend to create a coin and not a trading asset whose sole purpose is to generate a quick buck.
tl;dr Long halving is good for a coin if that's what you trully want : A COIN, A CURRENCY, SOMETHING DESIGN TO BE USED AND SPENT NOT TRADED FOR A FEW QUICK BUCKS.
