A lot of controversy has been stirred around a statement that Peter R. from BU recently made on Core slack.

https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/5poe8j/can_any_bitcoin_unlimited_devs_preferable_peter_r/

If we look at Peter R.'s actual words, he said:

I don't believe a fixed supply is a central property of Bitcoin.

Now, people have been attacking this based on their interpretation that this is referring to the 21M coin limit in Bitcoin.

However, shortly prior to that comment, Peter R. said the following:

So, IMO, the scarcity of bitcoins is a central property, scarcity of block space is not.

It's quite evident that Peter R. was talking about the supply of block space, and not about the 21M limit.

P.S.: I'm a member of BU. I haven't seen any members of Unlimited argue for a lifting of the 21M coin limit, let alone Peter. Having to quote him out of context only illustrates the desperation of those opposed to the concept of BU's market-driven approach to block size.

If there do exist any BU members in favor of modifying the 21M limit, they could provide a signed statement to that effect. I am sure enough that you won't see any such statements, so we can basically put this FUD about BU's developers to rest.

But even if there are supporters of inflation - their ideas would still have to pass a public vote according to BU's Articles of Federation. That would require majority support for Bitcoin inflation, which is nowhere to be found in the real world.

EDIT: corrected typo in postscript (block size limit -> 21M limit)
