Might be a dumb question... But why is the total bitcoin supply such a random number when the block rewards have always been a multiple of 5? Will the end result be a nice even 21000000? Example below from latest block

Met a Venezuelan the other day that just moved to my area and spoke very little English. They never heard of #bitcoin and loves the US dollar. We're still very early or just highly regarded
Agreed. Also interesting numbers here.
2 billion in total transactions but 100 million in “criminal proceeds”
Shows that most of us are regular people that just want to optimize for financial privacy in a growing Orwellian world
