Four documents, the same five questions.
No throughput league table and no yield. The cells are what this library is willing to say about the text.
| Question | A finite monetary supply for Bitcoin |
|---|---|
| What the text proposes | BIP 42, A finite monetary supply for Bitcoin. Although it is widely believed that Satoshi was an inflation-hating goldbug he never said this, and in fact programmed Bitcoin's money supply to grow indefinitely, forever. |
| Who may write | Pieter Wuille |
| What is settled | Although it is widely believed that Satoshi was an inflation-hating goldbug he never said this, and in fact programmed Bitcoin's money supply to grow indefinitely, forever. |
| Load-bearing assumption | A soft fork does not bind a node that never upgrades. It binds the nodes that enforce the new rejection. |
| What this library says afterwards | Status in the source: Deployed. A reading of the public specification, not a copy of it and not a certification. |
