The "21 Million" Myth vs. Inflation - falkengra - Nov 15, 2025
We constantly talk about the 21 million BTC cap. But while we focus on the fixed supply, fiat currencies (USD, EUR, IDR) continue to be printed, making BTC's value relative to a constantly devaluing unit.
If the world moves to a truly deflationary digital asset, which altcoin (not BTC) is better positioned to become the global reserve asset?

Honestly, if we're talking about an altcoin that could act like a global reserve asset (without touching BTC), my pick is Litecoin (LTC).
Not trying to shill it, but it checks more boxes than most:
Fixed supply (84M) and no weird burn mechanics
It’s been running forever with zero drama
Super reliable, super simple, super predictable
No foundation that can wake up one day and change the rules
Most newer “deflationary” coins rely on hype or centralized teams. LTC is basically the closest thing to Bitcoin in terms of monetary policy, just lighter and cheaper to move around.
Not saying it’s destined to be the reserve asset of the world, but out of all the alts, it’s one of the few with an actual track record instead of promises.
