My favorite page on the StLouisFed .org (FRED) site:

"Buying eggs with bitcoins."

Since they started keeping track in January 2015 through July 2024, the price of a dozen eggs:

- In US dollars: Up +46.0%, from $2.11 to $3.08.

- In #bitcoin: Down -99.5%, from 925,406 sats to 4,903 sats.

CONCLUSION: Life gets ever more expensive the longer you save in dollars (or any government fiat currency), while it generally gets (much) cheaper the longer you save in #bitcoin.

Inflationary fiat currency versus neutral inelastic energy money...

The choice is yours.

There is so much talk about saving in bitcoin - what about earning in bitcoin? And not fiat denominated amounts. Imagine if your salary for a job was 0.5 BTC per year. Might not be sustainable for long periods of time but man would you have the cream of the crop applying for that job.
