In a recent Twitter exchange, lawyer Bill Morgan sparked a thoughtful discussion about the decision behind issuing 100 billion coins on the XRPL (XRP Ledger) and its implications for tokenomics. 
The conversation unfolded in response to a user’s <a href="https://twitter.com/Fayala_brash/status/1735426831686545460" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">observation</a> about SOL’s circulating supply being significantly smaller than XRP’s, prompting Morgan to delve into the rationale behind the XRPL’s substantial coin issuance. 
Fredo Ayala, the X user, pointed out that, while the rate of inflation might be similar, the vast supply of XRP is designed to enhance liquidity. However, Ayala argued that this abundance could potentially hinder price appreciation, raising concerns about the tokenomics of XRP.
