Forbes: Ethereum's supply growth rate has been slower than Bitcoin since its merger in September 2022

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