The supply of cash is predetermined based on consensus protocol backing that spreadsheet and is agreed upon by its users. They partake and secure the spreadsheet because of the rules or "formulas" controlling it.
i.e We trust banks with our money. Blockchain is trustless in its native design.

Gee , I wish I'd bought 100 coins at $4. Story of everyones life.
