I get what you are saying but it is still a wild sentence. I get monetary policy, debasement, inflation... but there is no rule/law that says "BTC MUST be a safe-haven alternative to inflation"
- marcosdumay 2y agoThe relative sketchiness between those two just had a significant change. Prices are set on the margins. Not at the absolute values.
- tucnak 2y agoNobody is alluding that it _must_ be a safe-haven w.r.t. inflation; just that it's less sketchy than USD. However, I personally wouldn't put my money there, because there exist cryptocurrencies with much stronger fundamentals. XMR is one of them: the cartels, major organized groups, money laundering industries are all doing their books in it. People often claim that Bitcoin is weak fundamentally, nobody uses it for goods and services, etc etc, well they should buy XMR—it's really strong, and indeed, stable like that.
