This is not how the value of Bitcoin performed. Bitcoin stored the value of your time the best since its inception / better than any other money.
How should I know. I can’t know. That is exactly what money does, it answers that question. But it can only do that reliably if it is not inflated randomly.
It’s becoming easier to use your BC as collateral for loans. If you get that right, then you only have the fiat that you borrowed. Since the origination of that fiat is now debt, it can have tax advantages too.
That’s supposedly how “the wealthy” do it (not necessarily BTC, but gold, property, etc.) and this doesn’t seem to be brought up oin this forum very much (or I missed all the discussions).
Live, borrow and die doesn’t get discussed much on these forums because it makes less sense in Switzerland than, say, in the US (or other countries) with taxes on capital gains.
Without taxes on capital gains:
your wealth tax doesn’t change as your taxable net wealth (taxable assets - deductible liabilities) stays the same (for the general case) ;
you pay more interests on that debt than you get tax deductions from (as your marginal tax rate would need to be at 100% to equal it and >100% in order to top it, which it can’t).
It can still make sense in the case of illiquid assets (real estate, long term liabilities/contracts/products with a maturity), if you are subject to very heavy fees for selling (though it’s likely you’d also be subject to very heavy custody fees in that case…) or in potential other cases.
If you want to short fiat and long Bitcoin, that is one way to do it so that might be another reason why you’d apply that strategy.
