For me there is nothing like Bitcoin when it comes to saving money in the future. It's not like the bank that when you save, whatever amount you save is the same, even if the amount increases, it's only a very low 1% per annum.

      But with bitcoin, 100$ that you bought now and hold for 5-10 years from now is possible that it will be x100 or more, it can also be lower than the price you bought after those years but it is unlikely that it will be lower at the value you bought.

Some will call this a stupid question 😅 but yea, it's just something that came to my mind today after giving a lot of thoughts about Bitcoin.

Is possible to open a personal savings account in the bank and always send money to that account and when you are ready to collect the money, bank will give it to you, my question is, is it possible to also creat a Bitcoin wallet and always send Bitcoin to it as a savings? if you do that for some year without going back to the wallet, will anything happen to your Bitcoin or the wallet?

Nothing will happen to Bitcoin (except just increasing and decreasing in price) and your wallet as long as you take very good care of it and keep it in a really safe place. It is a very possible thing to do and as long as you can take good care of it, nothing will happen to the wallet even if you don't open it every day to see the amount of the balance. So what do you think is impossible in this case now ?

Because bank accounts are now also digital in nature because you can see and control them via a smartphone device in your own hands, as well as a Bitcoin wallet, if you use a hardware wallet, then you can of course take very good care of it and don't just store it carelessly if you use it. You use the wallet for Bitcoin savings in the long term.
In fact cryptocurrency and banking are two tools that cannot be separated because for crypto investments we need capital from banks and for crypto withdrawals we also need a banking account. But you can control both of them and you can take them at any time when you need them. It's just that if Bitcoin is true, as you say, there are increases and decreases in prices that we cannot predict, this is a risk. Banks and crypto have different mindsets, different goals and of course different impacts, crypto is the best, nothing can stop this, it's only a matter of time.
The scary part is that if ever there is a bank that would hold your BTC in which in this case seems impossible, for sure if ever the price goes down they'll surely refund you only a little bit of amount. Do you think banks would want to lose? before you could actually complain to them for sure they'd immediately cut the loose ends.

It also destroys the whole concept of decentralization if ever there is something like this. You should be your own bank although it is undeniably true that bitcoin depends on fiat.

Bitcoin wallet it's self is a savings account. And your bitcoins won't be tempered with. The different between bitcoin wallet and bank is that bitcoin is decentralised, no other person has access to your wallet except you and there is no government policy. In banks, reverse is the case. And saving in banks  aim at interest. You can save your bitcoins by means if holding bitcoins for a long period of time which you can always make use of any time of your choice.

Bitcoin is very volatile, so it cannot be called savings, if you buy bitcoin every day, it is called accumulation and investment. And in investing, there will be profits and losses, you cannot expect a bitcoin investment never to lose.
Investing and saving are entirely different, so they can't be compared, saving is just saving money for the future for emergencies. Investing means we want to increase capital but also risk losing if we invest in the wrong way. To make life more convenient, we should all have both, they have different use cases.

   -   If you mean that you will accumulate bitcoin in your btc address, that is possible, and I think that is the purpose of that, let's accumulate bitcoin for the future.

And when you do this, you are the bank yourself, which is anytime you can take it out or put it in, that's up to you, mate. And that will not be lost as long as you have the password, seed phrase or whatever is important here.

There is no good point of mentioning a centralized exchange for anything related to holding, it is not your coin on blockchain and which means you have no full control over your own coins.

That is why sir Im not recommending it and I actually says DYOR first  Grin Maybe OP can see how the system work and of course, you didn't quote my message about buy and send to own cold wallet  Grin

Funny question though.

With bitcoin, you are your own bank, which means you can do what ever you like with you own money. You can decide to have a bitcoin wallet that is generated offline on an airgapped device, copy some addresses for backup, and also backup the most important thing which is the seed phrase, having the backup in two or three different locations. You can be sending bitcoin to the wallet anytime you want without spending it. But you always need the seed phrase backup for you to spend the coins, if lost, your coins are gone/lost forever.

You mean like automatically yes they do exist binance couple of months ago introduced a feature called https://www.binance.com/en/auto-invest/ basically they do buy and DCA and your bitcoin is locked for the amount of time. But DYOR because it happens on Centralized Exchange.

Bitcoin is created for our own privacy to invest . meaning we can keep sending our money inside and let it there as long as we wanted and then we can withdraw in time that we needed , in this we are free from hassle of banks and government , but this happens only if Bitcoin is not banned or prohibited in your country because things will change if your country has banning for crypto.

Ok, now you have to understand....

The goal with a savings account are to gain interest, so some Banks will offer fixed savings accounts where you constantly deposit or transfer funds into a fixed saving account to get more interest.

Bitcoin wallets are different, because you do not get interest on those bitcoins that are deposited there. Yes, the Bitcoin price might increase and you might get much more value from those coins, because it is valued more... but that is not interest.

The benefit of having bitcoins in a wallet are the accessibility of that money. (You can lock those funds with smart contracts, but it's a more complex process and I think it should only be applied to people that do not have the discipline to save those funds)  Wink

Yes it is possible.  This is a fairly accurate analogy....  

This is not very similar to a regular bank deposit, because a bank deposit carries interest, while bitcoin does not.  Rather, it looks like an impersonal metal account - this is a special type of bank deposit, which is denominated in grams of precious metals (gold, silver, platinum, palladium).  

An impersonal metal account does not imply interest on the deposit.

An impersonal metal account, just like Bitcoin, allows you to grow rich over time.

It is as long as you've secured your main wallet like banks secure money. You can be your own bank with your own money. You can send frequently bitcoin to your wallet as part of your savings, and most people do this, but some people just store or hold bitcoin one time and almost forget about it for a few years, and they will just open it if there is an emergency or it is time to sell. There's nothing that will happen to your bitcoin as long as it is secured.

When you send money to a bank, then that money is theirs already not yours. It's the same as sending BTC to a centralized exchange.
If you haven't heard already, banks are already started running and FDIC is out of money. Once the depositors will together want thier money out of the banks, they would have no cash to give.

But maybe they will give you digital cash which is already the CBDC.

As some answers point out, it is clear that you know little about the essence of bitcoin and why it was created.

If you were to study bitcoin, you would realise that it has been the most profitable investment since 2009. And although in the future it will most likely not be as profitable, you don't have to jeopardise your bitcoin by depositing it in a bank to get a little extra interest.

So why be greedy and earn some extra 2-3% per year and risk losing all the invested coins, if you can just hold Bitcoin and see its value double or triple in a few years?

This.

You don't need to have Bitcoin saving account in order to invest Bitcoin, just buy through P2P or exchange and send it to your non custodial wallet.

Yes, the best thing is this. Buy regularly to the best of your ability, and withdraw to your wallet, to a wallet where you manage your private keys.

You have to change the mentality, OP. Bitcoin if used correctly is completely different from the banking system. With it you are your own bank.

Yeah, the question might seem stupid but taking your rank into account and the number of posts i can say that you just entered the crypto-verse. So i must say knowledge of Hot and Cold wallets along with the pros and cons will give you an idea and will also tell you the effects that Banking savings include while crypto wallets don't.

1. You do not have to open accounts of wallets as you open for savings accounts of banks by filling in your all information.
2. You do not have to give custody of your assets and digital securities to the banks instead by using crypto digital wallets you are the one who will control your assets. If you own the money then why give custody to banks?
3. Yes it is possible to create a wallet address for BTC and to store any other currency (crypto) you want to store.
4.
Nothing will happen to your account because crypto wallets provide you the full custody of your wallets you can store as much as you can and for as much time as you can.
5. If you have fear of losing money then i must recommend you to read the following compilations

Here are some compilations from where you can start.

What you are asking about has been around for a long time and many people have been doing it until recently.

And you can also do the same with Bitcoin. You can set up another personal wallet to store your Bitcoins in one place and send some Bitcoins to that wallet regularly.

As long as you can keep it safe, you don't have to worry about hacking or someone wanting to steal your wallet because only you know where the wallet is. And you only need to send the number of Bitcoins you want to the wallet to collect them while waiting for market conditions to reverse.

Bitcoin saving account is only exist in a centralized exchange, it's not a wallet because you don't own the private key and you will lose all of your coins whenever the exchange turn become scam or get hacked. Bitcoin isn't a Proof Of Stake token where you can get interest by staking on a centralized smart contract, you can't make more Bitcoin except to mine it.

You don't need to have Bitcoin saving account in order to invest Bitcoin, just buy through P2P or exchange and send it to your non custodial wallet.

Yes, is possible to have your own personal wallet were you can save your money for future purpose which is the best idea that will bring light into your investment when the price of Bitcoin increase higher like never before in the market. There are some positive things you will start experiencing when you start saving your money into your wallet, because wallet is more secure and safe than bank when your personal details are safe in your hands. I think, Bitcoin investment is the best investment compare to other fiat investment that will take a long time before the income will manage to increase small.
