截至2021年1月，ETH流通量不足1.15亿。与比特币不同，以太坊的数量没有硬性上限。新的以太币通过类似于BTC的区块奖励结构进入流通。然而，随着时间的推移，以太坊的区块奖励不会减少。
然而，现在每个以太坊区块都有两个eth奖励，而且仍然有一些基本的区块奖励。因此，以太坊的整体表现仍然是通货膨胀，但在1559计划之后，通货膨胀率已经降低。然而，以太坊的整体经济仍处于通货膨胀状态。
总体影响，在EIP-1559升级协议下，每笔交易都需要销毁ETH，矿工只能获得优先费用和区块奖励，无法获得基本费用。随着经济活动的增加，销毁的ETH数量将变得更大。当销毁率大于区块激励发行率时，以太坊将进入通货紧缩状态。通货紧缩和仓库锁定将直接导致流通量减少和单个价值增加。因此，对于以太坊的长期投资来说，这是一个不错的选择。

As of January 2021, the circulating supply of ETH is less than 115 million. Unlike Bitcoin, there is no hard cap on the amount of Ethereum. New Ethereum coins enter circulation through a block reward structure similar to BTC. However, Ethereum’s block rewards will not decrease over time.
However, each Ethereum block now has two eth rewards, and there are still some basic block rewards. Therefore, the overall performance of Ethereum is still inflationary, but after the 1559 plan, the inflation rate has decreased. However, Ethereum’s overall economy remains inflationary.
The overall impact is that under the EIP-1559 upgrade protocol, each transaction needs to destroy ETH, and miners can only obtain priority fees and block rewards, but cannot obtain basic fees. As economic activity increases, the amount of ETH burned will become larger. When the destruction rate is greater than the block incentive issuance rate, Ethereum will enter a deflationary state. Deflation and warehouse lock-in will directly lead to a reduction in circulation and an increase in individual value. Therefore, it is a good choice for long-term investment in Ethereum.
