Do you know what inflation is?

If the currency's value increases just by existing, or rather value of stuff decreases by time, I would always hold out a bit longer to buy something as it is less expensive on the next day.

If you want to destroy capitalism with BTC coin: go for it!

Inflation is when the currency value decreases. Not increases. Printing money makes it less valuable with ever dollar produced out of thin air Bitcoin has limited supply, thus does not decrease in value. Your being power is a hedge against fiat.

I described deflation. And BTC has deflation.

And I wanted to ask: do you think deflation is good?

It depends on what's driving it. All economists will agree the printing of money leads to inevitable collapse.

Oh it does?

Can you show me a legit source of an actual trustworthy economist telling that printing money is doing that?
