Fiat currencies will tend towards becoming worthless over time due to their inflationary nature (with their unlimited supply currently being increased by the central banks at an accelerated rate due to the economic impact of COVID-19).
In contrast, Bitcoin’s monetary policy is disinflationary, with its supply increasing at a deflationary rate, therefore, its value is most likely to accrue over time due to its hardcoded scarcity, and exponential mining difficulty.
These projected long term gains are further catalysed by its capped total supply of 21 million coins, which will be mined by approximately the year 2140.
At present, many banks are either implementing or discussing negative interest rates, wherein they would be paying you to borrow money, which, on the surface sounds great, but the downside is that savings would depreciate over time.
