I know they’re not comparable but bitcoin has increased in value around 70 000%. There’s no centralised money printer so supply can’t be diluted and its other feature is its transparency. The funny part is how much value you can attribute to the transparency. It’s so easy for any system to have transparency but when it’s centralised it’s always a conscious decision by the designers to make it closed which will always attract suspicion and erode trust, as it should.
As long as there are bitcoin believers the trend will continue, it doesn’t matter if you personally think bitcoin is stupid or not. I personally think it’s ok but there’s probably better ways to preserve wealth transparently. The only question that matters is will everyone think bitcoin is stupid? As long as price goes up long term answer will be no. Keep in mind in 100 years from now the US dollars value will probably drop another 97% on top of what it’s worth now.
Isn’t regular money the same? I mean isnt it down 99% in 100 years or something?
Depends on your currency.
USD or EUR? Probably more like 20-40%.
Venezuelan bolivar? 99% is a pipe dream.
Since 1913 the US dollar has lost 96.8% of its value. So yes 99% in 100 years was incorrect
Hell, that’s still heaps.
