Bitcoins have different economic functions. It acts as a central bank. Bitcoins are known as fixed quantities as stocks have limited supplies. The rapid rise in prices has given us many different questions. What is the economic function of this algorithmic currency?
Exchange function of Bitcoin
Anyone with a bitcoin address can use bitcoin. It is impossible to know who controls each address. Therefore bitcoin must be freely exchanged. This means "sacrifice" that bitcoin has created. This free flow of capital can be from any source. This allowed the bitcoin to become worthless a few years ago.
When this currency is rising in value over time. This is due to the limited provision of bitcoins. While there is increasing demand for them. This is similar to how you bought Apple stock in 1980 during your IPO. You will have to pay $ 22 per share. Due to the limited supply of Apple shares and the increase in demand. Today it is valued at $ 520 per share
At present, Bitcoin is going down continuously, so is it a deflation?
I don't really understand your last sentence. Bitcoin is going down constantly, are you talking about its price or its supply is getting more and more limited?
If you talk about supply, it is really a deflationary mechanism that Satoshi really desires when creating bitcoin.
For this reason, supply is limited so many countries are watching Bitcoin as a solution to inflation growth too quickly.
