Explaining Fiat Money: What Is It and Why Does It Hold Value?

Video Transcript

What is fiat money? 

In simple words, fiat money is the money we use every day: like dollars, euros, or pounds. 

It’s not backed by a physical commodity like gold or silver, instead, it holds value because the government says so. 

Imagine it’s like a big game of make-believe where we all agree that these pieces of paper or digits in our bank accounts have value.

Now, let’s talk about how fiat money differs from Bitcoin. 

Unlike fiat money, Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency, a digital currency that operates on a decentralized network called the blockchain. While fiat money relies on governments and banks to maintain its value and regulate its supply, Bitcoin is limited in quantity, with a maximum of 21 million coins. 

This scarcity is one reason why some people view it as a store of value, like digital gold.

If you’re curious about investing in cryptos or want to know more about money and Bitcoin, don’t hesitate to reach out!

Cos’è la moneta fiat? In parole semplici, la moneta legale è il denaro che usiamo ogni giorno: come dollari, euro o sterline. Non è supportato da un bene fisico come l’oro o l’argento, invece, ha valore perché lo dice il governo. Immagina che sia come un grande gioco di finzione in cui siamo tutti d’accordo sul fatto che questi pezzi di carta o cifre nei nostri conti bancari abbiano un valore. Ora parliamo di come il denaro fiat differisce da Bitcoin. A differenza del denaro fiat, Bitcoin è una criptovaluta, una valuta digitale che opera su una rete decentralizzata chiamata blockchain. Mentre il denaro fiat fa affidamento su governi e banche per mantenere il suo valore e regolare la sua offerta, Bitcoin è limitato in quantità, con un massimo di 21 milioni di monete. Questa scarsità è uno dei motivi per cui alcune persone lo considerano una riserva di valore, come l’oro digitale.
