Bitcoin (BTC), Cardano (ADA), and XRP Supply Caps vs Solana (SOL) Inflation: Verified Tokenomics Fact-Check for Traders 2025
According to @ItsDave_ADA, only Bitcoin (BTC), Cardano (ADA), and XRP in the top 10 have a hard supply cap and thus fixed digital scarcity, while Solana (SOL) is inflationary, implying capped assets can compound value as demand rises. Source: https://twitter.com/ItsDave_ADA/status/1966946060598935669 Bitcoin’s supply is hard-capped at 21 million with programmed halvings that cut new issuance roughly every four years, limiting structural dilution. Source: https://bitcoin.org/en/faq Cardano’s ADA has a fixed maximum supply of 45 billion, with staking rewards emitted from reserves until the cap is reached, reinforcing a capped-supply profile.

Source: https://xrpl.org/xrp.html Solana employs an inflation schedule that started near 8% annually and decays by 15% per year toward a long-term 1.5% rate, indicating no hard cap.
