Yeah, you’d think higher inflation would push people toward Bitcoin since it’s anti-inflationary, but markets don’t always move that clean. In the short term, Bitcoin still trades like a risk asset. When inflation data comes in hot, investors start worrying the Fed will hike rates or keep them high, and that usually means risk-off across stocks and crypto.
Long term though, you’re right, Bitcoin was built exactly for times like this. The short-term traders dump on headlines, but the real hedge value of Bitcoin shows up over years, not days. That’s why hodlers don’t stress these dips.
HODLERs know better than these bigger whales and those who think BTC is as risky as buying any other crypto: because we know for a fact that BTC is the best and will surpass anything in its way toward the adoption, one way or another.
