$BTC has officially crossed a major milestone, with 20,000,000 $BTC now mined.
This marks over 95% of the fixed 21 million supply already in circulation, underscoring the asset’s growing scarcity.
An estimated 3–4 million $BTC are believed to be permanently lost, further tightening effective supply.
With issuance continuing to decline after each halving, supply pressure is expected to intensify over time - unlike fiat currencies, where money supply continues to expand through ongoing issuance and central bank monetary policy.
