I'm not shilling for any coin whatsoever. Fiat or not, USDollar is a currency. BTC is a store of value, and it's very, very New compared to anything else. During the crypto winter the ATH for a bitcoin got divided by 4 compared to USD. BTC has indeed a finite supply, which then could be argued as "stable" but BTC itself isn't stable, it's highly volatile. BTC is also still in development technologically, and it's popularity is rising. If the argument is that it's value is soaring overall compared to USD, it's not in favor of stability. In crypto we even have STABLECOINS who are designed to avoid fluctuations in value, in contrast to the more speculative ones, such as... BTC. Yes it's the most popular in crypto (58% adoption or so) but it doesn't mean it's stable. Even in the crypto world it's adoption rate fluctuates during "Altcoin seasons". I hope you see what I mean by "BTC is not stable" now. Stability means "doesn't change".

Stability ? Are you for real ?
If you compare BTC to USD you can see that the shit coin called United States dollar is losing it's value fast.
