That said though you can buy goods and services with crypto as a currency so I feel that is starting to change.

I was thinking about this last week and the lines are starting to blur between crypto and fiat currencies which with the rate the value of crypto is going up has to be contributing to inflation somehow.

Edit: Its far more nuanced than this and always changing but this should basically explain it.
