Can $BTC Be Both Gold and Cash?

Bitcoin wasn’t created to be “digital gold.” It became that.
The original idea? A peer-to-peer electronic cash system.

But somewhere along the way, scarcity, volatility, and institutional narratives turned BTC into a vault rather than a wallet.

Here’s the core conflict:

📈 Store of value = HODL, minimal circulation

💾 Medium of exchange = Spend, circulate, transact

Trying to be both creates friction. People won’t spend what they believe will double in a year. And merchants won’t accept what might crash tomorrow.

So what’s the solution?

Make spending rewarding (cashback, instant swaps)

Use second-layer tech (like Lightning) to separate store vs. spend logic

Educate people: some satoshis are meant to moveGold never bought groceries.
But Bitcoin? It still might.

To win mass adoption, BTC must stop trying to be perfect—and start being useful.

Next time someone asks “Is Bitcoin money?”
Ask them back: “Do you use yours like money?”
