Not having your store of value debased preserves wealth at a minimum.

When wealth is preserved, people can save for the future and fund creative/passion endeavors. When you’re not forced to run on the fiat dollar hamster wheel, you can have more time to think and be creative. Creativity is a driver of innovation. It’s hard to innovate when the future is uncertain. Challenges definitely drive innovation, but debased savings means people cannot feel secure pursuing something that isn’t “profitable”.

Bitcoin is not about becoming wealthy, it’s about preserves wealth by maintaining current value into the future.

If I generate value today by providing a good or service, what happens in 10 years to that value? Is it worth the same? Depends on the money you’re using to store the value.

There is no yield. There is no get rich quick. This is what crypto misses.

It’s about creating value and storing that value over time. That means you have to work to provide that value. Some may siphon it off, but if your net value creation is negative on a Bitcoin standard, you go broke.
