My honest answer is no. I would not have invested in BTC if I were not getting anything in return. Everyone invests in Bitcoin for gains, and a very small number of users would use BTC for technological purposes. Most of us chose to become miners, investors, and traders because of the money and its economic benefits.
It helps us fight financial problems like inflation, and it protects our purchasing power from it too.
So, if BTC becomes as stable as the dollar, I might even sell it and hold gold.
Totally agree with you, it’s the ability to give value to people's money that make them choose Bitcoin so if wasn't a good store of value, people would've gone for other options, maybe invest in stocks like SPCX or other options, gold isn’t a bad idea too but we're grateful that Bitcoin isn’t like that and has the potential to progress better in future.
Honestly i might be forced to do same too, if it stops serving the purpose i choose it for then switching to another good option is the best thing to do.
People move towards those things from which they will benefit or benefit. If in the future something better than Bitcoin is created or becomes a better investment than Bitcoin and if the future of that object or coin is better than Bitcoin then everyone will move towards that. But at the moment it does not seem that it is possible to create something better than Bitcoin or that something better than Bitcoin can be created.
Bitcoin has become a much better asset than gold and silver. In the future we can expect much better results from Bitcoin than gold. Because everyone now wants financial freedom and wants security. Bitcoin is the best for this financial freedom and security
