I’ve been thinking about high transaction fees lately and how they might compare to fees associated with fiat transactions in the future. This leads to the question: should #Bitcoin be considered a store of value (akin to property) or a medium of exchange (like currency)? High fees may be more appropriate for one versus the other.

Can #BTC be both now? If so, will it be both in the future?

Maybe it can become both in the future if a layer 2 solves the UX part and gets enough traction. I hope we get to experience it.

Lightning in its current form is not easy enough to use for most people IMHO, at least not with a non custodial wallet.
