There has long been speculation that it could be a hedge against inflation because of how the code is structured but the amount of wealth in crypto is still far too small for this to be viable.

As a hedge against inflation, it’s a chicken and egg problem. You *do not* want to use a volatile asset as a hedge against inflation because the reason why you hedge is to escape volatility.
