Is there an infinite ETH?

Enrico Enrico Sun Jan 05 2025 | 6 answers 1403
I am wondering if Ethereum, or ETH, is infinite. I know that some cryptocurrencies have a limited supply, but I'm not sure about ETH. Can someone clarify if the supply of ETH is infinite or if there is a limit to how much can be mined or created? Is there an infinite ETH?

This means that, theoretically, there is no limit to the number of Ethereum tokens that can be created.

However, the actual implementation of this principle is subject to various factors, including the consensus of the network's miners or validators.

The Ethereum network operates on a unique principle regarding its total supply.

Despite the potential for an infinite supply, Ethereum has implemented mechanisms to control the issuance of new tokens, such as through mining rewards and inflation rates.

In contrast to other cryptocurrencies that have a finite supply, Ethereum's total supply is not capped.
