And I can't understand that. They compare bitcoin to gold and think they will only use it to store value. They will take loan and spend fiat. That may work in the short term, but if we all do it that way, then fiat wins. The ultimate goal is for fiat to disappear, so we need to use Bitcoin constantly.

You have to accept both usages of Bitcoin :

- yes, it is a money for everyday transactions

- and also yes, it is a store of value, actually the best humanity ever had, better than gold.

Some people will use it as money only, or store of value only, and others will use it in both ways.

If Bitcoin is not a good store of value, it’s not a good medium of exchange. If it’s only a store of value, it’s not money. If Bitcoin is not money, it fails in the long run even more than gold did, because scarcity is not why Bitcoin has value in the first place.

Yes, scarcity is just one of the properties of Bitcoin.
