Odaily Planet Daily News Bitcoin has been hailed as "digital gold" for many years, but Ethereum has quietly surpassed Bitcoin in a key indicator in recent years: supply expansion. Since the merger (The Merge) in September 2022, Ethereum's supply has grown slower than Bitcoin, challenging the long-standing assumption that Bitcoin is the best form of sound money. Unlike Bitcoin's fixed upper limit of 21 million, Ethereum is designed to be adaptable, allowing its supply to expand or shrink based on network activity. Analysts believe that Bitcoin ensures absolute scarcity, while Ethereum is more adaptable and flexible, able to adjust to market conditions. If sound money means supply growth, it has unexpectedly surpassed Bitcoin in this regard in recent years. (Forbes)
