Confused? Let me explain simply.
How Bitcoin works:
Unlike newer coins like ETH, where developers can make as many coins as they want, with BTC you have to mine it. Even the Bitcoin founder mined it.
More blocks mean mining gets harder. Miners confirm transactions. The founder knew mining would get easier with time, so he made a rule: rewards halve eventually, limiting supply to 21 million BTC lifetime.
