I have an answer about supply inflation on Bitcoin Stack Exchange that I update whenever I rediscover it. I just included the numbers for 2025—the first year that Bitcoin had less than 1% supply inflation:

A useful resource for the endless barrage of bitcoiners saying that bitcoin is not inflationary.

The bitcoin "inflation" is known ahead of time and most users can calculate like if the inflation has already happened, and so it stops being useful to even talk about "inflation" as any useful concept in bitcoin.
For all intents and purposes bitcoin is not inflationary.

That's a great milestone to highlight. Crossing below 1% annual supply inflation is more than just a symbolic number—it reinforces how Bitcoin's issuance becomes increasingly scarce over time. Having historical figures updated each year also makes it much easier to visualize the long-term impact of the halving schedule. I'll be interested to see how the inflation rate continues to converge toward zero over the coming decades.
