I would rather save my money in bitcoin. Bitcoin growth as opened the eye of a lot of people to the power of crypto currencies. Bitcoin been the most popular of them all have seen massive growth in the very first month of a new year. Which means there going to be more and more growth years to come . its bitcoin for me .
We all have money we don't spend. We either save the money in our local banks and can get interest on it over a period of time.
However, we have experienced a boom in crypto this year. Considering that major crypto currencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, ripples have crossed 100% yield since the beginning of this year.
Bitcoin was the highest big name gainer this year. Even cryptos like xrp,Bitcoin cash and Tron has achieved above 30% return so far.
Crypto is volatile unlike fiat currencies so would you save your money in major cryptos or local banks from next year?

Saving money in fiat currency is not a problem, as long as it is a good currency. Dollar, Euro, pounds can all have good value after years. But I think cryto is the best, and will surely guarantee good or better returns.

Personally I prefer to invest the money in a business, the bank accounts in my country produce losses due to inflation that constantly affects savings, and in the case of cryptocurrencies it is a risk for me, which I cannot assume, that is why the best decision I have . It is the aforementioned.

Saving money in cryptocurrency while it is highly rewarding it can also be risky especially when there is a drop in price. So I think it will be better to split it, half my money is saved in fiat currency and the other half is saved in cryptocurrency. There is no need to put all your eggs in one basket.

As my geographic area is backward talking about cryptocurrency and none of our merchants, shoppings, markets is eager to accept whatever cryptocurrency as payment form (shops owners may laugh to your face at such proposal:sick:), except some marginal online shop, I don't feel confortable to save non-markettable money. Not until prepaid cards cryptocurrences refillable become popular (currently only one exists and it's still not popular, so in fact I quite don't know what to expect). At least, what I do is maintaining cryptocurrencies earnings, but only until the good moment to exchange them to FIAT comes. I prefere to buy my country's government treasury providing interests 3% above inflation or a general interest between 5 and 7% yearly.

This is a great idea only that there is a catch in between that makes saving in cryptocurrency better. Yes, cryptocurrency do fall, but it never falls to stay in the falling state but rather its volatility makes it keep changing but unlike fiat currency, the banks just use your money they way they feel like.

I have not been a fan of saving in crypto currencies but I will start it now. Instead of saving my money as Fiat, if I had used it to invest in Bitcoin I would have made huge profits. So I will advice to save your money in crypto currencies.
Yes saving money in crypto is the best way of increasing the value of your money. It's better with coins with reputation like Bitcoin, Ethereum, litecoin, bnb and co. You're sure of getting more than 40% return on it over a certain period. Aside top fait currencies like USD, pounds and Euro, others devalue with time.

I'll rather save in Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is experiencing massive growth
By far the most popular digital currency is the progenitor of Blockchain technology. Bitcoin owns the lion’s share of the emerging market. Its trading volume is much larger than any other competing currency and its valuation is many times more than the second cryptocurrency of choice,

Additionally, Bitcoin’s exponential growth may portend good things for Blockchain currency in general.

Cryptocurrencies share many similarities with conventional fiat money, but also offer some interesting advantages.

  • Both can be used for payments and as a store of value
  • Both rely on widespread consumer trust in order to function as a means of exchange
  • Fiat money is issued and controlled by (central) banks and governments
  • Bitcoin is produced and distributed through a process called mining and is not controlled by a centralised authority
  • Bitcoin can be trusted because it is tamper-proof and cannot be spent twice
  • A Bitcoin transaction cannot be reversed, cancelled or charged back.

It's all good you know, saving in fiat and crypto it depends on the economic ecosystem. I could be in my country and save my money in a foreign currency while the currency appreciate and I could also save it in crypto with bright prospects. But sure crypto is more profitable.

Every human being – young or old, woman or man – needs freedom to have a smooth-edged sense of self, in fact, the necessity for privacy is a universal cultural feature. It gives limits of protection for the people to feel free and be themselves and go ahead to sightsee areas of their mind minus any interference, fear or panic that they will be attacked or arbitrated

You have got a good point about the kind of fiat currency one should even consider putting his money on because of how strong such currencies are just like USD, pound and Euro. I know a man who just deals on money exchange where he uses other currency to get USD and allow it to appreciate, then he sells it.

In as much as Crypto currency can give you up to 100% or more of your money, it is not advisable for saving purposes because the price drop which will make you lose lot of money, so it's best to only use bitcoin for investment not saving.

Between giving my money to banks that will use it for their benefits,I will rather put it in Bitcoin or etherum.. even though crypto currency doesn't have a stable price .. it's still better than the alternative.

I think when you have an investment in bitcoin, you are bound to look for a way to keep increasing your investment and in such essence you are already saving money in cryptocurrency. It's true the price of cryptocurrencies fluctuate from time to time, but in the end it's always going up rather than going down.

I will like to save money in fiat currencies, preferably the dollar, as most countries of the world use it as a medium of exchange when they do international trade. This was the plan I had this year and believe me, it has started on a good note too!

Dollars is called cash money for this reason. It's the only fiat currency that is generally accepted all over the world without any much hassle and to top it all it's a valuable currency unlike some other weak fiat currency other parts of the world makes use of.

That's true. I notice that most billionaires invest on dollars when they want to save money in cash and I never knew the reason till one of my mentors let me know that it is as a result of how stable the dollar can be amidst challenges that faces the world.

US is a world power and so is their currency. I attended one seminar and one of the speakers made mention of the importance of having dollars. He pointed out that as a young man, you need to find a way to earn and save at least one dollar in a day.

Saving money via crypto has its own advantages and disadvantages, if the coin rise, you gain, if the coin fall, you lose, if the coin retain as it is, no gain no lose... As for our local bank fiat, you will not gain in saving money rather u will pay for monthly charges... So most time I prefer crypto.

You are very correct with your assessment on how to earn from keeping your money in either cryptocurrency or fiat currency. The charges banks take from my money in the account pains me so much especially the one they call VAT.
