As it turns out this almost exactly represents 4.3% inflation per year

1.25=0.16(1+0.04376)^(2025-1977)

Where the 0.04376 is the decimal form of 4.3% inflation

BUT 48 years is a long time

#BTC #HODL

IN REVERSE what is the buying power of 1 dollar over 48 years?

In 1977 $1-> gets 6.25 cans of soup

In 2025 $1->gets 0.80 cans of soup

So the USD LOST (1-6.25/0.80 ) ~ 87% of its purchasing power.
