I've been trying to understand Bitcoin’s role in today’s economy. Many people describe it as a hedge against inflation, but with its frequent price fluctuations, I sometimes wonder how reliable that claim is.
You seem to be worried about BTC's volatility, nobody is going to deny that BTC is volatile, but in its volatility it obviously beats inflation. O don't know what country you live, but imagine holding your country's fiat or BTC for the last decade, it is obvious which of them lost its purchasing power and which outpaced inflation. If it is BTC's volatility that worries you, and you'd prefer assets that beat inflation, but are not so volatile, then you can buy gold.
