the need for a store of value only coin is almost non-existent, certainly to most westerners/non-zimbabweans/non-venezuelans. doge was for fun, eth is for smart contract utility, are these even comparable peers? all the crypto markets are 80-100% speculation at this point.
people prefer their cash to be price-stable BTC isn’t going to be even mildly stable before its saturated as a SoV

y would i use bit as SoV when it's massively volatile w/little utility beyond speculation, & when i have access to usd &gold? who is using it as a SoV? everyone expecting it 2 make them rich-purpose of SoV is 2 prevent loss of purch power-not make u rich-keep u from getting poor!

do you think Gold was perfectly stable 9 years into its discovery?
-
i still don't see the case for the store of value only/first story at all - still sounds like a scam. why would i need it if USD and gold are available? with greater stability and history as SoV, particularly gold?
-
it’s all about the rate of printing. USD supply expands at 6.2% per year while Bitcoin is already 3.8% per year and going lower every 10 minutes (and sharply every 4 years). The fact that no one can ever print more than 21,000,000 Bitcoins makes them very precious. BTC > Fiat.

Gold is around 1.7%, by the year 2028 BTC will be even lower than Gold. ***This is the most important aspect***

And the 21m limit along with several statements made by Satoshi support the idea that it did intend to compete with gold from the very beginning.
