As per Coinomedia, the U.S. has officially stopped minting pennies after 232 years of circulation. Rising production costs, now at 3.7 cents per penny, made the coin economically unsustainable. The decision reflects broader concerns about inflation and the value of traditional currency. The post also highlights Bitcoin’s fixed supply as a contrast to fiat currencies that can lose value over time.
