If the bitcoin halving makes you worried about "number go up" or whatever, go put your money in Bolivars or something until you realize that having a capped-supply built into the currency is a feature

I shouldn't be ranting about this like it's 2017. But seriously. The most basic feature of Bitcoin is that it transforms the artificial-digital into something with a finite supply that isn't subject to human whims. How does that not blow your mind

If you base your money on an artificial supply that you can print infinitely, humans will always be tempted to print more. Always. Gold's difficulty to obtain meant the supply wasn't subject to human whims. It could actually hold a signal.
