Vlog 205: STEEM is the perfect long term investment.

Do you think it's problematic that steem has no capped supply and will continue to inflate indefinitely?

No, inflation will get less every year.

is that true? do you have a source for that? does that mean that less steem will be given out in rewards, and to witness nodes, every year?

Yep you're right, I forgot. That makes me more super bullish on steem than i was before. Which was a lot already.

For reference if anyone else is interested:

"Starting with the network's 16th hard fork in December 2016, Steem began creating new tokens at a
yearly inflation rate of 9.5%. The inflation rate decreases at a rate of 0.01% every 250,000 blocks, or
about 0.5% per year. The inflation will continue decreasing at this pace until the overall inflation rate
reaches 0.95%. This will take about 20.5 years from the time hard fork 16 went into effect."

Still, it technically will keep inflating forever. Just not at a very fast pace. Seems fine to me though.

And it's interesting, it means the amount of steem paid out is decreasing every year...rewards early adopters, I suppose :-)
