Fernando Nikolic: Bitcoin supply capped at 21 million contrasts with U.S. Fed’s flexible inflation target
Bitcoin fixed supply versus Fed inflation

Fernando Nikolic, founder of Perception, contrasted Bitcoin’s fixed supply of 21 million coins with the U.S. Federal Reserve’s stated goal of 2 percent inflation "over the longer run." He pointed out that while 2 percent is a specific figure, the undefined timeframe of "the longer run" makes the Fed’s target less concrete.

Nikolic has previously said Bitcoin adoption is slowed by rules designed for a niche group rather than pricing or user experience concerns, according to a prior article. He has also compared American Express paying a $350 million fine for failing to report $13 billion in suspicious transactions to wallet developers facing prison in another commentary. These views reflect his ongoing focus on regulatory clarity in crypto and traditional finance.
