- venomsnake 11y agoBecause then you get all the "features" of the current banking system that bitcoin wanted to avoid. Bitcoin is by design deflationary currency. Fractional reserve banking is by design inflationary. No matter where you sit on how much inflation and what monetary policy is best - it is obvious that it is against the intentions of the original adopters and creators of the BTC network.
