Fiat never was a good method to store value. over the years the dollar and many other Fiat currencies have suffered a devaluation exceeding 100%. That's why people choose commodities such as precious metals (Gold) to store value. Today, you can opt between Gold or BTC to store value. Which one would you use?

The greenback's "status as a funding currency or as a safe-haven currency for that matter is lost," writes Juckes. "Instead, it’s a barometer of the global mood."
