INFLATION, A MOTIVATION TO INVEST IN CRYPTOFASHIONS

[Darker45]

In a sense, inflation is good because it forces people to spend. If people spend, commerce thrives, and the economy moves. There is no point keeping something when it rots over time. That's how fiat is. It's like a perishable food.

Second, inflation is good for those who borrow money. As money is losing value over time, what you borrow today is much more valuable than what you will pay in the future.

I'm not saying inflation is entirely good, though. And it seems that the tide is turning as far as appreciating inflation is concerned. There seems to be a paradigm shift and Bitcoin has probably played a vital role.

  I always wondered if inflation, in addition to all the bad things it brings to society, has some benefit that could be useful  for each of the people who are harmed by this type of case, and the truth is that it seems incredible to me that It comes only to cause anguish and destabilization. Or do you think it has some benefit? Because it seems to me that there is nothing good about this event attacking countries and the worst thing is that it is inevitable, everyone is or will be going through inflation, The only thing I see as good about it is that it forces people to look, for alternatives that could be useful and more profitable when it comes to future stability.

For a regular citizen inflation holds no advantage to them, since the price of everything goes up while their income remains stagnant or at best it goes up, but at a speed that is slower than the inflation.

But if that is the case then why inflation is a problem all over the world? Because inflation is great for governments, governments can print all the money they want, and even better, they get to spend that money before the prices go up as that money has not entered the economy yet, also governments can tax your income and your wealth with it and steal from you in this way, so it should not be surprising why inflation is so strongly associated with fiat money and it will keep on existing as long as fiat remains too.

Thanks for putting it so simply.

I don't think the basic premise that 'some' inflation is needed is going to change anytime soon. Like you said, if there was zero inflation, there would be no incentive to invest. People with generational wealth would simply sit over it and earn interest because they wouldn't have to care about beating inflation.

It is a vital part of the macroeconomic engine of our world. Its a necessary evil and like all things, balance is crucial.

Japan is often the cautionary tale of what happens when a wealthy, hard working but ageing population goes into the state where there is zero or no inflation. The Govt provides stable. low-paying jobs to a bunch of people, rest of the society breaks its back in a cycle of low-paying temporary or contractual jobs and 'work' becomes a big part of your being. In my opinion, you can't have the spirit of risk-taking and entrepreneurship that defines capitalism, without some level of inflation.

STOP!

Through inflation, you are being defrauded by the Cabal. All throughout our lives, we work for our salaries, and we are paid the same amount with probably some salary raise happening in between before retirement. BUT the money you save n your bank account is worth LESS, and the Cabal's money-printer will print more and more making your money worth less and less.

The only people that actually gain something from that are those who own hard assets.

[shinratensei_]

inflation forces people to think about alternative and thats true, it also kind of forcing people into finding new innovation through funding as an investment we all know how many moeny can be just sitting around if not for inflation these money are just probably will never get invested so I agree with some people that says it forces people to spend, I guess inflation is designed to be just that even though it also means that our money value is plummeting due to exactly that.

so far i can't see anything that benefits the ordinary people like us from this inflation other than just making our salary decrease and decrease every day not in literal terms but so far when everything increasing in price it just means we buy less. but we also need to know that investment that have apy of more than 10% which means we gonna be safe from inflation usually also carries risk that can cause lose of money, for example stocks, the one with massive market capital as valuation of the stock doesn't necessarily means its gonna be safe haven for investment sometime it could drop so much just within a year.

We saw it during pandemic when the USA. and many countries massively printed new money to their fiat currency supplies. People in the USA. and many other countries, received money from government drops and spent it to invest in stocks that helped the S&P500, NASDAQ to increase a lot during two years.

But in a long term, inflation makes economy weaker and growth from inflation is not sustainable. Governments and central banks globally try to reduce severity of inflation by avoiding to use Recession, but replace it with "Technical Recession". We must know, when they say about Technical Recession, Recession already existed.

[davis196]

Because it seems to me that there is nothing good about this event attacking countries and the worst thing is that it is inevitable, everyone is or will be going through inflation,

Why are you talking about inflation as if it's some kind of natural disaster?
Inflation is caused by the money printing machines of the big central banks. Inflation can be stopped, if the central banks stop the money printing and raise the low interest rates. The problem is that this will cause a long term recession and many people will lose their jobs. The modern day economy is "addicted to inflation" to some extent. And yes, inflation is the main reason why Bitcoin/crypto was created. The other main reason are the commercial banks stealing money from their customers. Imagine if inflation was really low 15 years ago and it stayed low for all those years. Would Bitcoin become so popular? I don't think so.

   Lately, these second options that I refer to deal with innovation focused on cryptocurrencies. Many businessmen are aware of this and apply it in their respective territories. To give an example, we have Spain, in a news story I read about this country in an article written in Spanish, is highlighted the increase in inflation and the interest that many retail investors have shown in focusing on the area of ​​​​technology and virtual currencies to cope with what is happening. This is what Laidler, a global markets strategist, comments on, providing his opinion on the situation that Spain is experiencing and the measures that retail investors have been taking, according to him:

Crypto is now the second most popular asset class after stocks for retail investors, with 34% of retail investors owning crypto and making it an asset class dominated solely by retailers. It is easily the best-performing asset of 2024 so far, driven by a fundamental contraction in supply and demand, with strong demand for new Bitcoin spot ETFs, and with just under 30 days left until the halving.

For me it is a strategic decision, because in any case it is expected that at some point what will dominate is this type of asset and the one that will improve the quality of life of many.

You're right, inflation can act as a catalyst. When traditional financial systems struggle to maintain value, people naturally seek alternatives. This often leads to innovation and the exploration of new financial solutions, like cryptocurrencies.

However, it's important to remember that cryptocurrency investments come with inherent risks. Security concerns, potential regulatory changes, and extreme market volatility are all significant factors to consider before investing. While cryptocurrencies may hold promise, it's still too early to say definitively whether they'll revolutionize finance and become a widespread solution for improving financial well-being.

People with generational wealth would simply sit over it and earn interest because they wouldn't have to care about beating inflation.

And banks wouldn't offer interest rate if you hand them your money, actually the banks will charge some fees in order to survive. The government know people wouldn't want to lose money, instead they create this system where people didn't feel they lose money and the banks can make more money by offer people to lend. Without printing new money, the banks can't lend.

Fortunately education is become wide and people now already realize if banks and fiat are the real scams.

Inflation creates bad times for people. During bad times, people are always willing to work more and are trying to find alternatives, including type of job, type of investment and etc. During inflation it's logical if someone googles how to earn money, accidentally will hear about Bitcoin and then decides to invest in it. So I think that inflation will motivate many people to invest in cryptocurrencies but it's difficult to say whether they'll get financial profit or not because many people start panicking if something goes wrong with bitcoin's price and they sell immediately, they can't hold it. So there is a high chance that many people will invest but will not profit Btw Bitcoin ETFs will be a huge help for many people to have an easy access to Bitcoin investment.

Banks used to perform a useful function in our society, by allowing those that had excess money to keep their money safe for them, while the banks lent that money to those that were in need of it for a fee, this way everyone won and this made the economy to move forward, but banks created fractional reserve banking, raised the interest rates for their loans and stopped giving any returns to those that deposited their money with them, so they became the only winners and made a lot of money, but because of this, people are slowly losing the trust they had on banks and they are looking for alternatives to save their money.

[yhiaali3]

Yes, in my opinion, there are two positive and negative sides to anything, so it is very possible that inflation has a positive side, as you mentioned, as people began searching for an alternative to inflated paper currencies.

Due to inflation, the weak foundations of the old monetary system began to be exposed, which made many governments consider abandoning the old approach and looking for a system built on stronger foundations that does not contain all these weaknesses.

Of course, the best alternative they can find is Bitcoin in particular and strong cryptocurrencies in general. Bitcoin, as a store of value and a hedge against inflation, has become the most strategic option for large companies and institutions, and perhaps for governments later.

Crypto is now the second most popular asset class after stocks for retail investors, with 34% of retail investors owning crypto and making it an asset class dominated solely by retailers. It is easily the best-performing asset of 2024 so far, driven by a fundamental contraction in supply and demand, with strong demand for new Bitcoin spot ETFs, and with just under 30 days left until the halving.

Bitcoin is one of the best performing asset and that's why it is ideal for everyone to invest and get into crypto. But when people talk about the term 'crypto', they're suggesting a lot of crypto and goes into memecoins because they're convinced that the gain is higher than of Bitcoin.

But the hype can be gone on an instant and you don't know how long you're going to see that upon buying those suggested meme coins

As for Bitcoin, you get the safe way of investing on this very volatile market and you get the top and most loved cryptocurrency and you're for long term and stability.

[Bushdark]

Does inflation attract people to invest in cryptocurrency really when the fund is not there to spend.
If you still have some spear money to spend and invest in cryptocurrency the. You are not so affected by inflation.
Thise that are affected are not able to pay their bills due to many reasons they would not want to explain expect you understand what's happening currently. We can always make money in crypto which is very correct but where is the fund to invest? This one one of the problem many are facing these days.

[pooya87]

I don't expect to see Bitcoin hits $1M next month or next year, because it will only happen if something really bad like nightmare happens with US. dollar, global economies.

I believe in Bitcoin but only hope to see its value increases naturally with time, not hit $1M after one night because if it happens after one night, there will be a terrible black swan event globally.

We all hope for natural growth which is going to be solid and will stick around. But reaching a certain price in a certain time frame doesn't make the rise unnatural. Keep in mind that we have had many massive rises in short periods.
$1 million price may look big but percentage-wise this rise to a million is only about 1300% rise, we had 10 times that rise in last complete cycle ($150 to $20000 which is 13000%).
Getting there in lets say 1-2 years is quite reasonable.

[bluebit25]

Every citizen feels how negative inflation can be. While it is true that some industries can profit to some degree from slightly higher prices because they can also increase prices along with the market, our wages tend to lag behind increases This. It's frustrating and unfair when prices keep rising with no end in sight, making it feel as if everything around is going up for no apparent reason. The decline also won't erase the problem it's causing for our wallets.

[gunhell16]

You know, honestly, if I look at it from another side, in the eyes of most people, inflation is not good for every person. But from another angle, it's like inflation is actually helping us so that we can release the full potential that we have to actually survive in life.

Cryptocurrency, or bitcoin, is just one of the answers to the problems we face in life, but there are actually many solutions, not just one. It's just because I'm here in the field of crypto space.

For most people, inflation is a negative phenomenon, especially if their monthly income remains the same as before inflation. This leads to the fact that the average person can no longer meet his personal life needs and has to start looking for other sources of income, which means that he has to work more, which means that he is more exposed to physical and mental efforts. However, inflation does not affect everyone in the same way, because the rich are still rich and have far more money than they need.

Lately, these second options that I refer to deal with innovation focused on cryptocurrencies. Many businessmen are aware of this and apply it in their respective territories.

People will ride any wave if it makes sense to them at a given moment, and cryptocurrencies are currently a hot topic not only in Spain but everywhere in the world. If the price of BTC was half as much and nothing significant was happening, few would decide on such an investment.

Therefore, I think that inflation is not the main driver (motivator) for investing in cryptocurrencies, but it is about the fact that the expectations for this and the next year are extremely high, and this optimism spreads like a virus among all those who think that they can make easy money this way.

[TheUltraElite]

Inflation exists and fiat will gradually get devalued with time making our savings less valued from what they are today. But that does not necessarily mean that inflation is always bad. On the other hand deflation has its pros and cons too, you can buy bitcoin today but how can you sell it to buy what you need if you are only looking to increase its price (through deflation) in the long run?

These things need to be balanced to be maintain the economy. From our perspective, keep collecting bitcoin and saving fiat, we dont know what the future holds for anybody.

[harapan]

Inflation can never be a good thing.  It is a curse for a country.  If inflation prevails in a country, no matter how much people invest, their standard of living is very poor.  Inflation can never be a blessing to any country or nation.  Fearing inflation, many people are investing money in Bitcoin. Is there any profit in it?  They have to struggle with that money to coordinate their daily life.  Inflation can never be good it is a curse for the people of a country.

Definitely,inflation is one of the highest barrier to a good and comfortable lifestyle.The challenges that comes with inflation  is relatively difficult to accommodate income,personal well-being,and affordability to improve a well deserved lifestyle and human experience in this generation.

Inflation is naturally accompanied with negativity,it ultimately reduces the purchasing power of whatever amount of money that someone has saved or invested,reduces economic growth and development,and enhances many other negative effects on the economy or society.
