BTC never did what it was supposed to do

I know that bitcoin has become to largest cryptocurrency, I fell that it failed to fulfill its original purpose, which was to create a digital currency that could replace real money. The reason why was because it was designed to be deflationary, and that inflation is one of the things that drives consumer spending. Please don’t downvote me to hell for this.
