I've heard that there will only be 21 million Bitcoin in total. I'm curious about the reason behind this specific number. Why did Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin, choose 21 million as the limit?

To achieve this, Nakamoto incorporated a specific limit into the bitcoin codebase. This limit stipulates that the total number of bitcoins that can ever exist will not exceed 21 million.
