Bitcoin isn't for paying for college. And recessions cause the price of all speculative assets to drop. Bitcoin is supposed to be money to replace fiat, and it can't be a reliable store of value until after it does that.
Bitcoin's fundamentals favor it in recessions that threaten major financial company failures or repressive reactions (e.g. capital controls, haircuts or negative interest on savings). In milder recessions exit of short-term speculators as you cite may outweigh such fundamentals.

No it doesn't. You're insane. The next recession is probably a few years away, and BTC still has a higher inflation rate than the US Dollar. Its also not expanding as a cash usecase.
