Something that depreciates can still be stable. The US dollar loses value at a relatively predictable rate. We can see what an unstable currency looks like right now by looking at Argentina, where the peso has lost 47% of its value in a year.
BitCoin is more like the peso than the dollar, hence why its called unstable.

Currency isn't an illusion, it's a social construct, and its a deeply embedded social construct.
