No, BlackRock Can't Change Bitcoin

The recent controversy surrounding BlackRock's educational video on Bitcoin's supply cap is overhyped, according to this article. While BlackRock mentioned that there is no guarantee that Bitcoin's 21 million supply cap will not be changed, the author argues that this is just a legal disclaimer and not an indication that BlackRock intends to inflate Bitcoin's supply. The author emphasizes that the 21 million cap is fundamental to Bitcoin, and the entire ecosystem operates on this principle. The power in the Bitcoin network lies with the economic nodes, not entities like BlackRock, and any attempt by BlackRock or others to change the protocol would be rejected by the network. The author asserts that Bitcoin's decentralized nature ensures that no single entity can control or change its terms.
