Someone asked: What’s the difference between circulating supply, total supply, and maximum supply?
I usually answer like this: Total supply generally refers to all tokens that have been created, minus those that have been burned. It includes tokens that are not yet in circulation. Having no cap on the total supply doesn’t necessarily mean severe inflation. What matters is how many new tokens are actually added each year and whether there’s a burn mechanism.
