Now that interest rates are rising globally and liquidity is tightening, is Bitcoin still considered a dependable store of value, or is it more of a high-risk asset?


Any asset that increases in value over time relative to fiat currency can be considered a hedge against inflation, and bitcoin is one of them. But bitcoin is a volatile asset in the short term like stocks…so it is more suitable for long-term inflation hedging than short-term hedging.

So if you want to use bitcoin as an inflation hedge, make sure you hold it for the long term . If you are  looking for a short term solution, bitcoin is not suitable and is not the solution.
