Is Bitcoin anti-inflation?

[Inwestour]

No dude its not Anti inflationary as if you see its performance According to Quarterly but it is anti Inflationary in the Long Run still i think there comes many other points so for now I'm standing there that its not anti inflationary and its not even a currency consider BTC as an asset then you can see better results here.

It seems that bitcoin will fall further, today the fall has begun and so far everything looks bad, we can go down significantly. At the moment, it is very difficult to call bitcoin anti-inflationary, because it continues to fall. An anti-inflationary asset is supposed to hold its value during falling markets, preserve the purchasing power of your funds, but so far Bitcoin has not fulfilled this function. Hope now only for growth in the future.

i think yes , bitcoin is a anti inflation. As gold increases and the price of land increases, the value of bitcoin will also increase over time and inflation is not going to have any effect.

Well since bitcoin invented to become 'money' 'people money' i think when you encourage people to see more benefit in considering bitcoin as an asset is a sign people losing trust in bitcoin to be used as a currency in daily basis , that being said ... bitcoin might be affected by the inflation once a lot of people agreed with these kind ways to think.

Bitcoin are indeed perform better year after year against inflation but still it doesn't mean completely anti-iflation. Bitcoin just running at its own system while inflation running at the traditional banking system.

In may 2020,the American hedge fund manager Paul Tudor Jones said,  he will be buying bitcoin as a hedge against inflation, bringing what was once an alternative narrative into the financial mainstream. Today's inflation is said to be largely a result of unprecedented money printing. But as always, bitcoin has a finite supply of 21 million - no more coins can ever be created. Unlike the fiat currency, where its value and purchasing power decline as more is printed. That's what makes bitcoin safe against inflation.

Bitcoin is not anti-inflation,  "Scarcity" is anti-inflation.    Bitcoin just happens to have scarcity.    This Scarcity of Bitcoin, is not defined by centralization where someone holds a master key but rather "Scarcity" enabled-by "Proof-Of-Work" in place of a centralized cryptography scheme (like POS).  That is why "proof of work" , providing scarcity, is "anti-inflation".

Think about the facts, not your "feelings" on how Bitcoin fits into your clown world.

According to many analyzes, inflation is caused by the printing of money by the Central Bank. Excessive printing of money will create an imbalance in supply and demand, which will have a negative impact on the balance sheet.
As a person who really loves BTC, I want to ask, is Bitcoin anti-Inflation?

Printing of money caused inflation? which of the analyst gave you this information? Printing of excess money suppose reduce inflation since there is enough money to be spend in the country. If the money have been printed excess then the supply of money in the country or the nation will be high and the demand (spending rate) will also be high so where does the inflation comes in? Bitcoin is not here to remove inflation.

Zimbabwe does it right.

[odolvlobo]

It is basic economics. Money-printing causes (or at least contributes to) inflation.

If the money have been printed excess then the supply of money in the country or the nation will be high ...

Yes, and when the supply of something increases, its price decreases. The money is worth less so things cost more -- inflation.

... and the demand (spending rate) will also be high.

Yes, and when demand for goods increases, the prices of those goods increase -- inflation.

Zimbabwe does it right.

Exactly.

Bitcoin is not here to remove inflation.

I agree with you on this point. Bitcoin will actually increase inflation (as measured in government currencies) because it will reduce the demand for those government currencies, lowering their values.

is Bitcoin anti-Inflation?

It's hard to say it's anti-inflation in my opinion, because higher inflation will also affect the buying and selling power of btc itself, by looking at the current btc price chart it's difficult to go back up to 30k$ again, hopefully I'm not wrong about this problem. because I see the economic situation during this inflationary period greatly affects all aspects

[Artem Sereda]

Apart from the fact that inflation has already happened and Bitcoin has ""benefited"" from central and commercial bank money printing in recent years, not everyone invests in BTC for the same reason. While a significant portion of Bitcoiners bought a crypto asset with the idea of ​​never selling it again and using it as a store of value, there are also many investors who view Bitcoin as a technological investment. These are the sort of stocks that can be compared to Google, Apple, Amazon, and Tesla, so BTC behaves somewhat the same way as these assets.
For this reason, the correlation between Bitcoin and the Nasdaq 100, the American tech exchange, is high, and their prices have moved quite in sync for a long time. Like the Nasdaq 100, Bitcoin's price fluctuates as people seek safe haven in the ""safe"" dollar due to rising interest rates. Once these people exit the Bitcoin market, the crypto asset will likely start behaving like a safe haven again.
If tech investors pull out of bitcoin, so to speak, then it will again behave like a risk-free asset. An asset that is completely separate from traditional financial markets.

That is a question only time can tell. Theoretically it's possible bitcoin can be an anti-inflationary currency because we have a limited and fixed supply and the trust its blockchain system is incorruptible. But to make it work properly adopters have to trust bitcoin and go for it increasing demand. Few people aren't enough to make bitcoin anti-inflationary, there must be a high number of individuals involved on this process, acquiring more coins and using it as currency and investment, instead of solely trading. Within time we must see bitcoin getting stronger against inflation, while fiat goes on the opposite route.

It could be that Bitcoin is anti-inflation, because the limited stock makes it more difficult for us to get it. If we look at CMC data, the Bitcoin we can still get for free is less than 2 million coins. If mining around the world is active, I estimate that in less than three years Bitcoin stocks will reach their maximum.
That is, we can only get Bitcoins that have been circulating on the exchange. Of course this condition will make the price of Bitcoin higher. Then who will be the king of Bitcoin under these conditions? He who holds the most Bitcoin at this time will be the king of Bitcoin.

People are not realizing that inflation is increasing the price of things, that means inflation. It means that bitcoin would be going up as well, it’s not anti-inflation more so that it is pro-inflation because inflation means the dollar would devalue, and when that happens price of bitcoin would go up as well. Does that mean it’s better to own bitcoin when inflation happens?

Of course it does, but at the same time when government’s fight against inflation they are fighting against bitcoin too (example seen as fed increasing rates), so while you are benefiting from inflation, you are not really gaining anything since the prices go up anyway so your purchasing power doesn't increase, but when they are fighting against it, you are going down yet the prices stay the same.

I know there is the term and the word deflationary, which is what something like anti-inflationary means, and obviously BTC is of that nature and totally decentralized, for some countries with high inflation the one that has bitcoin and changes it to local currency is simply a king next to the others this is what bitcoin generates it is even above gold for the simple reason that bitcoin can have a much higher ATH than the previous one we all know it was almost for $70k which was a very good number and that everyone wants to see, but I think the next ATH will be much more inflated, and it will have a great madness when it happens, I think it will break the $100k barrier.
