In the current financial system, your wages rise over time but you lose purchasing power.
1971: ~$10,000 average annual income could support a family of 4.
Today: ~$60,000 average annual income can barely support an individual.
Bitcoin fixes this.
On a Bitcoin standard, you will see smaller nominal figures over time for income and prices, but the purchasing power of your savings will increase over time.
In 2009: 1 BTC bought nothing
In 2012: 1 BTC bought 1 fast food meal ($12.48)
In 2016: 1 BTC bought 2 weeks of groceries for a family of 4 ($654.76)
In 2020: 1 BTC bought 6-8 months of groceries ($9,314.28)
Today: 1 BTC has the purchasing power to buy ~4-5 years worth of groceries ($70,380.64)
In 2028, what will 1 Bitcoin buy? What will 0.1 Bitcoin buy? How about 0.01 Bitcoin?
Bitcoin's purchasing power increases over time because it has a finite supply and can fulfill all the functions of money.
