Cool. Now use the value of a dollar denominated in Bitcoin. Or do you only like cherry picking your statistics?

I’m as skeptical of fiat currencies as the next guy, but denominating in Bitcoin is the ultimate cherry pick.

The price of everything has crashed in the last 10 years when denominated in Bitcoin. If we measured GDP in Bitcoins, the statistics would show that we’re in an unprecedented depression.

Great. Do it against the European stock market and really drive home your point. Bitcoin versus the European market, indexed from 2010.
