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.
Generally, when there is inflation, the value of money decreases. The purchasing power of the common people also decreases. Inflation can be caused by various reasons, especially the government printing more money or global influence. In such situations, people usually try to hold those assets that retain their value for the safety of their assets, especially gold was given priority earlier. At present, Bitcoin is considered a digital gold. Because there is a fixed supply of Bitcoin. People have learned to understand that Bitcoin is the most modern and reliable system for gold or anything else where an individual can ensure maximum security through investment. Since there is no government or any central authority, no one can increase the supply of Bitcoin, which will increase the value of the asset.
