How can I verify those numbers? Would be a handy stat to use when I’m asked ‘why Bitcoin’

I don’t have a source for those exact numbers but I’m sure you can ask google or chatGPT about it

There it is! Didn’t even fact check it but was ready to bet the numbers were accurate. Standard fiat currency!

value_now = value_start / ((1 + inflation_rate) ** (year_now - year_start))

So for, 100k from 2006 to 2025 assuming a 2% inflation rate, we get

100_000 / ((1 + 2 / 100) ** (2025 - 2006)) = ~£70k
