"Hard money" means it's hard to produce. Monero has tail emissions and will inflate forever.
Hey dude, check this out — Monero’s gonna stay under Bitcoin’s famous 21 million cap for another 15-20 years.
Right now Monero’s sitting at about 18.5 million coins. It adds a tiny fixed 0.6 XMR per block (that’s roughly 158,000 new coins a year). So yeah, it’ll take till around 2040-2042 before it even crosses 21 million.
The bitcoiner ostrich with it’s head in the sand, will scream “infinite supply!!” but come on — we’re talking a super small amount added every year, and the inflation rate is already under 1% and keeps dropping as the total grows. It’s basically like gold with a little extra dug up forever to keep miners honest and the network secure.
No worrying about the chain dying when block rewards vanish. Monero just keeps chugging with steady incentives while staying super private and usable.
That’s why I like it better long-term, man. Real money that works forever, not one that hopes fees save it someday.
