It’s the same story with every fiat currency: as the money supply grows, your money loses value, and your savings become worthless.

This is why I’m all in on Bitcoin.

It’s the only way out of this broken system that’s designed to keep you enslaved.

I sleep soundly knowing my future is safe.

How can I verify those numbers? Would be a handy stat to use when I’m asked ‘why Bitcoin’

I don’t have a source for those exact numbers but I’m sure you can ask google or chatGPT about it

Checks out ✅

There it is! Didn’t even fact check it but was ready to bet the numbers were accurate. Standard fiat currency!

value_now = value_start / ((1 + inflation_rate) ** (year_now - year_start))

So for, 100k from 2006 to 2025 assuming a 2% inflation rate, we get

100_000 / ((1 + 2 / 100) ** (2025 - 2006)) = ~£70k

The guy had a perfect chance to say they’ve gotten “pounded” and said “screwed” instead. Almost as disappointing as the fiat debasement itself.
