Does money serve as a store of value in the same way though?

Central banks target 2% perceived inflation a year and most don't get anywhere near that. The US is estimated to inflate currency by up to 8% a year to get the cost of living to increase by 2% a year. Most of Europe attempts to get closer to hit that 2% of printing power, most of those currencies follow each other and the dollar and inflation measured/percieved there normally ends up around 1%. Then you get random years, like this, where a 10-20% jump in a year isn't too unlikely - this would probably feel very stupid if it was written down and didn't affect people's survival...
