Bitcoin is exactly how it was intended to be. It's the most transparent and predictable asset on the planet. It is math. The reaction by unstable humans, opinions, markets, governments surrounding it are what makes it volatile. It only needs to exist to succeed.

Bitcoin disempowers the corrupt central banks. Peacefully. Instead of being forced into their corrupt manipulative fiat scam we have an alternative that has math based (fair) rules.
Lots more reasons, like energy, for example Bitcoin mining often uses excess (or otherwise wasted) energy to mine Bitcoin (see volcano mining El Salvador), heat homes (see RY3T ONE, etc), and support the only decentralized currency on the planet is a pretty good deal.
We can talk speed too, BTC using Lightning has the capability to process more txns than Visa & Mastercard combined. Not only that, txns are almost free and instant.
List goes on.
