There is absolutely no chance of seeing global deflation short term, ignoring the money printing we experience a pretty rare economical situation when the economy needs to start, it wants to start and go back to normal, it is pushed with incentive but at the same time because of prolonged periods of shutdowns, a slowdown in activities and completely uneven break of supply chains around the world (for example the container situation) inflation will still be around for a while.

People want stuff, people still have the money to buy stuff but there is a shortage of it, until this clams down and an equilibrium happens again you won't be able to even dream of deflation. Some speculate we might see an artificial deflation period on annualized data compared to the park prices in May and June this year but it will be short-lived.


Nobody has a clue what will happen, it's a crazy world, and one tweet right now moves the market more than economic reports, so probably what is normal won't happen. Many argue that deflation is good for gold as periods of deflation saw better returns in gold investment than periods of inflation but I doubt this will be the same for Bitcoin.

A slight downtrend at the news about the US entering deflation, maybe! A massive dump? No!

The current situation is inflation. The price of Bitcoin has fallen because of Musk’s announcement of the suspension of payment in Bitcoin, as well as the policy impact of China’s ban on mining, as well as the high inflation rate in the United States and excessive inflation. , Will defeat the value storage function of the US dollar. Bitcoin is the only store of value in a deflationary economy in the world. If there is an overheating global inflation, money will flow into Bitcoin quickly, and this may be an unprecedented Bitcoin bull market.

The entire fiat world is inflationary. There may be times where due to lack of demand there's short term deflation in terms of prices of goods, but more and more money is always being printed because governments no longer know how to budget their money so they have to constantly print more money to cover expenses. Inflation is only going to get worse in the long run. At some point there may be a brutal global economic reckoning that leads to hyper inflation. The only escape hatch for us as individuals is Bitcoin.

I think what makes Bitcoin even more interesting than gold in a world of turmoil and increased individual mobility is the fact that you can take your Bitcoin with you everywhere in the world without having to carry another bag at the airport or having to fear getting your gold seized by a bank because you get caught escaping from a certain country. Bitcoin is highly mobile and agile and the simplest way to carry wealth all around the globe.

In regards to inflation Bitcoin will play a vital role in the future and its acceptance will only grow from here. I don't see a situation where I think the overall acceptance we have now achieved might somehow degenerate.

Chance of having a deflation is very low. It is mostly inflation all the time because of the system of printing fiat.

No, firstly deflation is very low possibility. Theoretically if deflation would happen, the effect on bitcoin price might be that lows. But this chance is very low because that deflation would need a complete system revamp which is practically not possible.

Hence whether deflation occurs or not, we can say one thing for sure, inflation in fiat is always going to happen. Hence buying bitcoin is a logically correct step to making profit. Still you will need to have fiat at hand.

Well said. Deflation happens rarely and as far I know it happened in Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Poland, Spain, Sweden  and few years back in japan, as well, and rest of world is facing inflation. Inflation can certainly pump Bitcoin as huge money will be available to buy Bitcoin but what can really affect the BTC Price  is behavior of Stock Market, there is very strong co-relation between Bitcoin and Stock Market. As Bitcoin Investors we should closely monitor Stock Market. Any dump in stocks will certainly trigger huge selling in Bitcoin.
