Excuse me for one moment while I keel over laughing...
One new line of code, please!
// COIN_LIMIT=2100000, old limit
COIN_LIMIT=121000000
Political expediency is the weakest link of any monetary system.
My prediction from June, 2021 (the miner crash already happened in late 2023)...
My prediction is an "emergency meeting" of various Bitcoin parties which increases the "21 million" limit to something like 100 million bitcoins. That would lower costs and keep the infrastructure churning out bitcoins for a few more years. Blockchain purists will be shocked and dismayed but the alternative is a crash-n-burn of the Bitcoin ecosystem.
My favorite Bitcoin graph... "unconfirmed transactions"
