Hi all,
I understand this is a controversial proposal, but bear with me please.
I believe we cannot accept the current subsidy schedule anymore, so I
wrote a small draft BIP with a proposal to turn Bitcoin into a
limited-supply currency. Dogecoin has already shown how easy such
changes are, so I consider this a worthwhile idea to be explored.
The text can be found here: https://gist.github.com/sipa/9920696
Please comment!
Thanks,

Pieter
