		mrlala on Dec 16, 2020 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Bitcoin breaks above $20k Not at all, you know why? Because everyone talks about BTC relative to some other currency. The very topic of this post "Bitcoin breaks above $20k or $20,000 USD / BTC". How can something that can only be quoted in terms of another currency be inflation resistant?

Can't USD only be quoted in terms of other currencies/assets? (At least since we left the gold standard?)
