We all know rate of bitcoin production drops by 50% every 4 years.
But this is equivalent to saying half of all the remaining bitcoin will be created in each 4 year cycle.
So while it’s true 99% of all bitcoin will be mined by ~2032 and the last 1% will be mined over the following ~100 years, about half of that remaining 1% will be mined in the first 4 of those 100 years.
