There is no agency or body regulating the supply of bitcoin.

Incorrect. The supply of bitcoin is regulated by the open source protocol itself that creates and maintains the block chain. It is money beholden to its holders, not to any political power.

“The supply of bitcoin is regulated by the open source protocol itself that creates and maintains the block chain. It is money beholden to its holders, not to any political power. “

the problem is that thousands of OTHER crypto have been created by the trillions ... anyone can create them and have ... i created catnipmanbux (CNMB) via studentcoin.org in about 30 minutes on the ethereum chain ... and there’s absolutely zero distinction between any of them and bitcoin, other than more greater fools have faith that bitcoin is more “valuable” ...

If the answer to government is anarchy then that’s not much of an answer.
