The store of value means an item acquired should, over time, either be worth the same or more. Some people think bitcoin will be the global store of value. Others think it's a kinda myth. Whatever it's, in my opinion, bitcoin in the hands of the right person can do amazing things. Have programmers and cryptographers who can use bitcoins underlying protocol to create magnificent things such as crypto currencies. So what gives bitcoin value depends on your qualifications.
