How does your chart show it increasing with crypto? Bitcoin came out in 2009 and ethereum in 2015, and adoption was far before 2020.

BC was very esoteric in 2010 or 2012. I imagine it would have been impossible for average businesses to actually get the crypto to pay with.

By ~2016 that was far easier for your average joe.
