I used to say "1 BTC = 1 BTC", until I realized that's like saying "1 USD = 1 USD", and it's not true. That's why USD-prices are usually related to a year: a dollar in 1960 was worth a lot more than a dollar now. And a Bitcoin in 2010 was worth a lot less than a Bitcoin now.

I beg to differ, please...

1 BTC = 1 BTC is indeed a true statement, but 1 USD ≠ 1 USD in terms of value.

Reason No. 1: Firstly, we know the total supply of BTC is fixed at 21,000,000 (regardless of the circulating supply). This ensures the statement will always hold true—today, tomorrow, or even after 2140, when all bitcoins have been mined.

Reason No. 2: The statement "1 BTC = 1 BTC" emphasizes Bitcoin as a standalone entity, completely untethered from traditional financial systems.

Reason No. 3: "1 USD = 1 USD" does not carry the same philosophical weight because its supply is unlimited. The Federal Reserve can decide to increase the money supply whenever they wish. While numerically correct, "1 USD = 1 USD" fails to hold true in terms of value.

Well the dollar has infinite inflation potential .
Btc is fixed and has zero inflation.

So I can see your point for inflation.

But for purchase power btc is not flat. So LoyceV has a point.

Maybe we need a different solgan.
