Because you have calls to make today.

Because we aren't falling for the much debunked deflation scare.

Why would you buy a pizza (or pot or anything else) when tomorrow your Bitcoin will be worth more?

Why would you buy pizza with any currency if you can earn interest by leaving it in a savings account?

I think you're onto something...

If you get tired of making all this money, sure, sell some of your BTC stash into fiat.

Then you can enjoy the hyperinflation for a while, or even balance the risk/reward of each.

Having BTC as a deflationary currency is good. Having the opportunity to use both deflationary and inflationary currency is even better!
