Since you are still a beginner, I suggest invest in yourself first with sufficient amount of knowledge regarding bitcoin and the cryptocurrency market. That way, you will know based on your own understanding why people are investing in bitcoin and why do you think you have too.

However, to answer your question, people invest for financial returns and expect to get rich someday. Getting rid of inflation with fiat is just part of it. The more you invest in bitcoin, the more you can protect your funds from value depreciation.

What could made people decide to invest in Bitcoin?
Just check the price of bitcoin in 2009, you will see $0.003. What is its price now? Over $77000. That can let you easily know the reason people are investing in bitcoin. Bitcoin is a store of value and it can be used for investment and it is an hedge against inflation. Invest in it and see the value of your money grow, but you have to be patient.
Infact the value of Bitcoin is even the more reason why people are investing in Bitcoin.  Bitcoin has other important potentials that can attract people too but if the value of Bitcoin extremely drops today I'm sure people will abandon it. This is why when the price of Bitcoin drops the rate at which people gets panicked is very high. Bitcoin has gotten a good recognition because of the value and because of it value this why people are even getting more interested to invest in it.

There is something in bitcoin that people do not see it in fiat, decentralization and its being borderless and open. People invest in bitcoin because they want to avoid centralized authorities, and because they don't find satisfaction with fiat investment returns, hence they stick with bitcoin.

And most commonly, people invest in bitcoin for long term financial goals, for their future retirement and the future of their kids and grandkids. Bitcoin is free to accumulate regardless of its expensive price, and investing should not be big, you can start even buying a small portion of bitcoin.

I guess the answer to this question is highly obvious, people invest in bitcoin because it can guarantee good financial returns in the long run. People aim huge returns and long-term profitability, and by holding valuable amount  bitcoin, you are already earning and it simply grows depending on your timeline.

Eventually, you'll get financial freedom and stability without other people knowing. That's because bitcoin is pseudonymous, everything is tied to an anonymous name, without using your real identity.

Fiat value depreciates overtime like shitcoins and investors has lost their faith in the USD which has triggered a lot of people to see bitcoin as a good investment because it's a store of value overtime and it's opposite to fiat beyond human control. Some are investing to make profit, some to preserve their wealth and some to be in total control of their wealth and be free from government dictation on how to use your money.

Smiles, if you ask me, this is just a perfect illustration to clear his doubts or give him an understanding ot insight of why people invest in Bitcoin. No need to talk too much. If he can clearly make the research, check the figures and see the difference as to where Bitcoin is now, it's very clear for him to understand and think wether he is ready or not to invest in Bitcoin.

The Difference is mad. It is something too big, that is any investor had been keen on accumulating Bitcoin since then, no matter how little he would have been buying, and has kept it carefully till date, then he would have been greatly wealthy looking at his portfolio. The major question has always been.... Can you consistently buy, can you keep on HODLing without fear of a decline?

People invest in bitcoin because if you compare it to banks the interest is quite higher than the banks interest at the same time , in banks there is a fee's being deduct to the money when you don't deposit, unlike bitcoin the interest is when the value of bitcoin goes up same with your money, that is converted.
But also maybe because, people are tire of money that are being hostage sometimes by the banks, when i was putting money in bank, they were so happy but when I'm withdrawing the money they have lots of questions as if they are the one owning it, and is very suspicious.

The funnest thing  about  this  banks,  is the they will also  see that  you are the  owner  of the account and they will  keep  asking questions as if they are suspecting you😂
I understand what you mean. I also think the control banks have over people’s money can be frustrating sometimes. But as a beginner, I’m still trying to understand Bitcoin better, especially the risks involved because the price can also go down. Do you think Bitcoin is a better option for long-term savings than keeping money in a bank? And what would you advise someone who is just starting out?

i hesitate to say that Bitcoin is a place of long-term savings, because of its nature that has a continuous increase an also with price fluctuations that always follow bitcoin (including a decrease  that is a risk), then investment is investment, and savings is savings, these are two deferent scenarios in my opinion, but even like that depending on where you look at bitcoin, if you admit that it is a long-term savings, yes please and there is no problem with it, but the point is not to expect that it will be stable in value, price volatility is a thing that needs to be accepted.

People invest in Bitcoin for various reasons, it could be for privacy because it is decentralized whereby they can afford to do p2p transactions without a third party interferences, it could be to hold it as a hedge against inflation or as an asset to invest in because it is a store of value. Among the reasons that I mentioned the most common reason why a lot of people and institutions are holding Bitcoin is because of profit, Bitcoin had shown that it has the capacity to reach ATH and it's adoption is basically increasing due to this fact. Unfortunately some holders don't care about Bitcoin privacy, their sole purpose is for profit sake and they don't mind using centralized platforms where they comply with KYC verifications. Whatever reasons that people have for investing in Bitcoin cannot change what it is which is decentralized and with limited supply.

Acquiring the necessary knowledge can ease the understanding of why people are investing in bitcoin and why a lot of people sees bitcoin has something worth investing in. Reasons why people invest in bitcoin are complex but as soon as you start understanding the crypto market then easily you will get to figure out the reasons why people invest in bitcoin but if the OP aren’t interested in acquiring the knowledge at all and just want to know the reasons then many members have given you enough answers.

Some people might have other reasons of investing in bitcoin differs from others but all just end up resulting into one reason that is the profits and benefits of it.
