I think it's a real problem already solved by hedging with real non-crypto things. Don't need crypto for that.

- darawk 7y agoAll of the other mechanisms of hedging inflation have issues. Crypto has issues too, of course, but the important point is that it's issues are different and uncorrelated to traditional inflation hedges. If you can hedge the same risk in more than one way, you should, because it will reduce your overall volatility.
