Yeah, that doesn't answer my question, and it's not like money, it actively discourages spending it because it's cast as a rapidly appreciating asset.
But yeah, knowing that $100 in bitcoin today might be worth $150 in a year does deter buying non-essential stuff. Why is that a bad thing?
Personally, It won't discourage me from buying a hamburger when I'm hungry, but maybe it would make me hold on to my iPhone for a year or 2 longer but you can do as you please and spend every cent you make.
