Lies and complete FUD!! There is 90m cap. Not 20m new ETH a year. Quit lying.

Ok, having looked into it in a bit more detail:

If we work from the block reward up: around 5.7 ETH per block, 7200 blocks per day = 41000 Ether per day = about 15 Million new Ether per year.

On the other hand, if we work from the genesis block back, using this model for the calculation:

72 Million x 0.3 = 21.6 Million new Ethers per year (= 57000 per day)

I don't think that's FUD. It's just doing calculation based upon the best available figures I could find. If you have any more authoritative ones that conflict with these, please post them.

P.S. It's even acknowledged by the designers themselves in that "Issuance Model" document that Ethereum is not a good store of value - especially in the early years.

Quote
the constant issuance, especially in the early years, will likely make using ETH to build businesses in the Ethereum economy more lucrative than hoarding speculatively

The market has got away ahead of itself. In a few years time, growth in industrial use of Ether may outpace issuance to an extent that it becomes a better store of value than bitcoin. But right now, speculative valuations are no substitute for that.

55 thousand new Ethers per day coming into the supply.

Need to keep increasing the marketcap just to maintain the price.

1500 BTC in buys (per day) should do it  Wink

i liked to have one foot on ETH and the other in BTC but now i moved completely to bitcoin with only my eye on ETH lol

Good for you bro.
I don't blame users going into ETH of course we all want to profit. I even want to have ETH maybe if the price is still lower though. but now that the price is much higher, i just spit on it. i wanna see it dump real hard first before i will jump to the wagon.

I don't see any new thread about ETH this time. what happen to them users?
Although I'm expecting a speculation thread and it could sprout any moment this time, maybe " ETH $100 next month thread".

and what's become of the BTC halving (double your money) hype machine recently?

A good lesson to short-term speculators never to 'watch the kettle boil' as we say in Ireland.
