A store of value is an asset that can be saved, retrieved, and exchanged at a later time, maintaining its purchasing power. It must be durable, portable, divisible, uniform, and have a stable or increasing value over time. Assets like gold and certain currencies are traditionally considered stores of value.

Future developments to watch include the impact of widespread adoption and regulatory clarity on the perceived store-of-value properties of digital assets.
