Inflation is bitcoin supply is quite high, and will increase for the next years to come. Supply of money is also a matter of velocity, or speed, of money flows. Keep that in mind.

bitcion isnt good for invest cuz its all about marketplace mif big investor sell his coins for low the price wil drop as all others will sell and he buys again sorry for my english i with you got my point

Bitcoin is a great way to invest, because there are limited amount of it. There is no inflation, conversely, the price goes up.

That is more a statement about your risk tolerance than about the merit or demerit of bitcoin as an investment.  Anyhow, there are few large investors who can move the markets to a reset these days, and they are generally disinclined to sell at a discount.  I would suggest that mass movements resulting from, e.g. policy actions, are a more significant source of down-side reset risk.

Infrastructure for bitcoin generated from mining and we need a device that is not cheap. maybe in future after bitcoin can't be mining, the miner will mining other altcoin and payout in bitcoin like a multipool.

Bitcoin is money, it just has all the infrastructure ( Fraud checking and storage etc. ) already built in and only exists digitally, you just have a bunch of people who Bitcoin threatens denying everything and openly refusing to class it as money.
Again everything seems to panic. I never thought bitcoin money. But the means of production for the money, it bitcoin at the time. Buy items can be in any currency and to other currency was you, mining bitcoin and translated into real money. And then you will not have to worry about any infrastructure for Stay problems with the law.

It can't be either deflationary or inflationary by definition. In both cases you are making a price prediction with which you could make a risk free profit if it held true. Whether you have to go long or short, you would in the end trade away the expectation.

Um...how do I logic?

Congrats, you are replying to a spam bot, lol

4 years old chart about inflation? it doesnt makes any sense,we better get it closed for real.

An area dedicated to discussing the differences of these two terms and the theories supporting them.

I'm looking forward to an in-depth discussion on the subject! I've noticed that confusion between the two seems to come up quite a bit on the forum, and thought it may be reasonable to dedicate a thread on the matter.

Pulled from a discussion in Wall Observer



Price-Deflation is what you are used to hearing about in Bitcoin. That term is used to describe the prices of goods/services as they decrease, because the value of Bitcoin goes up.

Price-Inflation is the opposite. When prices of goods/services increase because the value of Bitcoin goes down.

So, when dealing with Price-Inflation or Deflation, there is an inverse relationship of price and value, in regard to goods/services and Bitcoin.

Example: As the Bitcoin price goes from $10 to $20, the prices of goods/services goes down from 20BTC to 10BTC. As the Bitcoin price goes from $20 to $10, the prices of goods/services goes from 10BTC to 20BTC!

Why does the price of Bitcoin go up and down? The price of BTC goes up and down based on the exchange rate, or market price, which is set by buyers and sellers, or traders. They directly trade the Bitcoin currency with all sorts of other currency, and even some with gold; the most popular being the USD (US dollar). They set the price when executing orders to buy or sell. I will get into the actual reason of why the price fluctuates in the last section.



Now that we've gone over PRICE Inflation and Deflation (which honestly, to me, is a term made popular by Keynesian's to hide the real facts, as price inflation/deflation is simply the market exchange rate, reflective of the money supply into a currency from itself and other currencies), let's go over the REAL inflation/deflation of a currency (otherwise known by many as Monetary Inflation).

MoneySupply-Inflation is when the value of Bitcoin decreases when the total supply of Bitcoin increases. In our current state, this is at a generation rate of 25 BTC every 10 minutes.

MoneySupply-Deflation will essentially never occur. It is when the value of Bitcoin increases when the total supply of Bitcoin decreases. This may happen, say, when someone loses their private key and all the BTC associated with it are lost. This effectively "makes the rest of us richer". That being said, there is a SET DECREASE in the generation rate of BTC, so you have sort of a "deflationary effect" in the value, as long as more exchange occurs for BTC at a rate which is faster than that set generation rate.

When all 21 million coins are produced, the MoneySupply will be neutral, and the value will continue to increase (prices will decrease, consequently), as long as people continue to exchange in BTC.

This leads me to the last section.



What determines the PRICE of Bitcoin? The VALUE of Bitcoin at a particular moment.

What determines the VALUE of Bitcoin? The SUPPLY and DEMAND of Bitcoin in the economy.

What determines the SUPPLY of Bitcoin? Currently, the MoneySupply-Inflation rate of 25 BTC every 10 minutes, and traders willing to SELL Bitcoin to BUYERS in exchange for other supplies of money (currencies).

What determines the DEMAND of Bitcoin? Traders willing to BUY Bitcoin from SELLERS in exchange for other currencies.


Therefore: BUYERS, SELLERS, and MONEYSUPPLY-INFLATION (miners) determine the VALUE of Bitcoin, which determines the PRICE of BTC as BUYERS and SELLERS trade based on that VALUE (or supply and demand) of Bitcoin.


We don't exactly know the totality of the supply and demand. Sure, we could try and aggregate data from all the exchanges, but we will never be accurate as there are exchanges which can not be accounted for (OTC). The cool thing is that we DO know the MoneySupply rate, and we DO know the exchange rate. From this, we can determine a real value of Bitcoin when simply multiplying the two factors; a sort of inflation-adjusted view of the currency.

Effectively, the quantitative analysis of supply and demand is really what the currency exchange traders attempt to accurately determine which is conveyed through buying and selling of Bitcoin, setting a VALUE via the PRICED exchange rate of the currency. On a side note, most of the big Market Makers (FX Traders) use this price movement as a way to make a profitable living, as well. Especially when price fluctuations are a consequence of hype or fear (bubbles, cliffs), not factual supply/demand data, and are wildly out of the real price range.

Thus, if you analyze the proper macroeconomic data in an attempt to forecast future DEMAND for more Bitcoin (price increase), you will realize some very interesting things, and have a more accurate picture of where the price is going...

Happy trading! Wink

This post is definitely helping me to understand on what proper terminology i should use. Many posters are confused between the difference and usage of its term and sometimes it appears to be the same when in fact it is different. I am thankful that you posted this on the forum it is of big help to me and makes thins more clearer especially the inflation deflation stuff.

The Bitcoin is a native response that gives the life , to the  degenerated financial system. He returns money  to their natural role as a medium of exchange. It takes the authority of politicians to artificially manipulate the economy.
Yes life is always as it is, the supply of money was highly doubtful to decrease for it is implemented by the bank and accepted of human as a means of value.
Just like BTC it could inflate in the next few years or so, having said that we could earn a lot from inflation but not in deflation.

This information is very useful to me who are beginners, because I've learned at this forum,

I have to agree. This is pages and pages of debate for sure but very informative debate.

The market cap of bitcoin is relatively small. Just above 9 billion. We might suffer from a small amount of inflation/deflation, but it's barely noticable.

While the share of BTC is relatively small in the global economy's inflation / deflation does not matter, except for speculation.

Price-Inflation is the opposite. When prices of goods/services increase because the value of Bitcoin goes down.
