So it starts: Peter Todd lays out the case for "infinite inflation" in Bitcoin

We knew it would happen since the block size wars, and as predicted
today it started.

Peter Todd, a very influential individual in the Bitcoin development,
wrote an article trying to "demonstrate" that "all thing considered",
keeping a fixed block reward forever is "not inflationary" due to
"general lost coins".

I'm not making this up, you can read it by yourself here:

And of course a few other people commenting on the Bitcoin development
mailing list kind of agree that that can be a viable thing.
