I'm curious about Bitcoin. I've heard that there's a limited supply of it, but I'm not sure if that means the number of Bitcoins is fixed or if it can still increase. Can someone clarify if the number of Bitcoins is fixed? Is Bitcoin number fixed?

The purpose of this scarcity is to mimic the rarity of precious metals.

Gold, for instance, is also scarce and valued accordingly.
