  Sure! The maximum supply of Ethereum (ETH) is capped at 18 million per year. This limit was put in place to control inflation and ensure the long-term stability of the currency. As of now, there are around 115 million ETH in circulation. It's important to note that the maximum supply does not mean that all the ETH will be in circulation at once. The issuance rate decreases over time, and it is estimated that the total supply will reach its maximum in the year 2140.

  The maximum supply of Ethereum (ETH) is an interesting topic. Unlike Bitcoin, which has a fixed supply of 21 million coins, Ethereum does not have a hard cap on its total supply. However, there is an annual issuance limit of 18 million ETH, which means that the supply will increase gradually over time. This inflationary model is designed to incentivize miners and secure the network. Currently, there are around 115 million ETH in circulation, and it is expected that the maximum supply will be reached in the distant future.
