With how volitile the USD is under ahem this administration, Bitcoin is probably the slightly less shittier option.

Seriously, I do not have faith in USD anymore. What's left of my paycheck after bills all goes to BTC, and I sell what I need on demand to cover day to day costs. Been doing this since 2019 and it has paid off handsomely.
