While I personally think, a deflating bitcoin can be used as an investing community, but not as a real currency, the proposed change not only deals with deflation, but also with centralization of power.

If bitcoins capture just 1% of current money market, each bitcoin will be worth 30 000 000/20*1% = 15 000 USD.]]></description>
