Is there a maximum supply of Ethereum?

CryptoNinja CryptoNinja Fri Feb 14 2025 | 6 answers 1111
I'm wondering if there's a limit to the total amount of Ethereum that can be mined or if its supply is potentially infinite. In other words, is there a cap on the maximum supply of Ethereum? Is there a maximum supply of Ethereum?

Cryptocurrency supply refers to the total quantity of coins that have been issued and can potentially be created.

Bitcoin, for instance, has a finite supply cap of 21 million coins. This limit ensures that the coin's scarcity remains consistent over time.

On the other hand, Ethereum operates on a different principle. It does not have a maximum supply limit.

This means that, theoretically, an unlimited amount of Ether can be minted and circulated in the market.

The absence of a supply cap makes Ethereum's economic model quite distinct from Bitcoin's.
