It’s very useful to differentiate between price inflation and monetary inflation. Monetary inflation is whenever the amount of money is rising, but this is not automatically resulting in price inflation (efficiency goes against price inflation).
We (investors) surely want price deflation on Safecoin, eg. Safecoin going up in dollar terms in the long run. On the first look we could amplify that by eliminating monetary inflation (fixed supply), but is it really? Doing this could be appreciated by today’s holders but maybe, at the same time disabling the network to establish itself in the world, hence damaging the old holders by not getting great adoption. I think we should stick to the previous plans for Safecoin distribution, eg. target distribute the frozen 85% of total coins during 10-15 years after the launch. 100% monetary inflation during the first year seems legit to me. But more? Ending up with let’s say 60% of coins distributed after first 12 months would be surely damaging in my estimation. Just my 2 cents.
I think you are missing those 100 extra hungry new people with 0 wealth need to work from day 1 to keep alive. All those will contribute with their labor trying to obtain the goods the natives own. Natives fell the almost instant ability to sell their goods for higher prices and buying cheap labor from the newcomers. Its only on the second 1 the GDP remains the same. In that sense, you are surely right.
From what I have said it results that natives are richer because newcomers came. In the long run, the GDP will also tend to double.
Not only wealthy newcomers are welcome, but we also welcome the hungry ones.
