How exactly does PlanB utilize the concept of scarcity to estimate the value of Bitcoin? What specific metrics or factors does he consider in his calculations? Is there a mathematical model behind his predictions, and if so, can you provide an overview of how it works? Additionally, how does he account for potential changes in market sentiment or external events that could affect Bitcoin's scarcity and, consequently, its value?

Could you elaborate on the potential for Bitcoin to become scarcer than gold and real estate following its halving event? How might this affect its value and demand in comparison to traditional assets? Are there any factors to consider when assessing the scarcity of Bitcoin, and how does this relate to its overall potential as an investment or store of value?

Certainly! Allow me to pose a question that encapsulates the essence of the paragraph "Is Bitcoin more scarce than gold?" in a concise and inquisitive manner: "Considering the finite supply of bitcoin, capped at 21 million coins, and the ongoing mining process that gradually releases new coins into circulation, does this make bitcoin inherently scarcer than gold, which is also finite but has a much larger above-ground stockpile and can be discovered through mining activities? How do these factors compare in determining the relative scarcity of the two assets?

I'm curious to know, which cryptocurrencies have a limited supply? I understand that Bitcoin is a popular example, with a finite supply of 21 million coins. But are there other digital assets that share this characteristic? It seems to me that a limited supply could potentially drive up the value of a cryptocurrency over time, as demand increases and the available supply dwindles. Can you elaborate on some of the other cryptos that have a capped supply, and perhaps discuss the implications of this feature on their market performance?
