As per Satoshi himself, the value of bitcoin increases because people speculate, start using it more, speculate more, start using it more, etc.

The reason why it is capable of increasing, is because the number is fixed. Inflation would outstrip its value, if it weren't.

Bitcoin is useful. It has organic support. When it comes to storing value, other coins do not matter (nearly as much). Just ask PayPal, Mastercard, Microstrategies, Tesla, JP Morgan, GrayScale, etc.
