Why This Bitcoin-Like Supply Model Stands Apart
Bitcoin's fixed 21 million supply cap has become the gold standard for digital scarcity—MECCACOIN applies this same principle with its immutable 3 billion coin ceiling. Bitcoins fixed supply cap creates two key benefits: Scarcity, where Bitcoin's focus on scarcity is a fundamental aspect of its design that helps distinguish it from government-issued fiat currencies, and inflation control, where traditional currencies are susceptible to inflation because central banks can print more money as they wish.
The parallel is intentional. While Bitcoin uses proof-of-work mining with halving events to approach its cap asymptotically, MECCACOIN launched with its entire supply defined from inception. The coin is explicitly non-mintable—meaning the smart contract cannot create additional coins under any circumstances.
This design creates predictable economics. A fixed money supply, or a supply altered only in accord with objective and calculable criteria, is a necessary condition to a meaningful just price of money. coin holders can evaluate their position knowing exactly how many coins exist and will ever exist, without concern that future emissions will dilute their holdings.
