I am surprised no one has replied something like : "Buy bitcoins. Contrary to fiat money Bitcoin can't be printed by governments and as a result there is no inflation with Bitcoin" yet.
- camjohnson26 5y agoBitcoin is extremely volatile and isn’t directly correlated with inflation, it has the same problem with inflated asset values that everything does right now.
- camgunz 5y agoBitcoin also tends to lose value as inflation rises, so it's just a more convoluted way of advocating for BTC over traditional stocks.
- redisman 5y agoOr ETH2 as you can stake it for 4-5% ARP of ETH which is also deflationary these days and has basically no power consumption
- mattnewton 5y agoI think it would suffer from the gold problem though, where what you are buying is _interest_ in the underlying asset. So it peaks before the anticipated inflation, and then during the inflation it actually doesn't keep up as people offload it but don't buy more.
