I may not understand properly what you mean here, but isn't it the other way around?

Even if your 30-40% "inflation adjustment" is true (I believe it is closer to 25% since 2013, because there were long stretches of very low inflation rate, only in the last 2 years it accelerated), you get an inflation (=deflation) rate of -96% for the last 10 years (taking for 2013: a price of $500, and for 2023, a price of $15000), which (estimated without calculating it) is about -15% per year.

If you have a good valued $100000, then in 2013 its price in BTC was BTC200, in 2023 its BTC6,70.

At this moment, Bitcoin is deflationary. This may change, but we're still not there.

Yeah, but the main chain Bitcoin is still $15000 (in 2013 prices) or $25000 (in 2023 prices) worth, because you must add the market cap/price of the fork chains, not subtract it. The fork coins aren't fungible with the mainchain BTC. Or would you pay $10000 or more for a BSV?

If I'm completely misunderstanding, please elaborate  (sorta interesting topic, by the way).

Can you explain further your 30-40% thing? Cant see how you ended up with that number.

1. FIAT is just the trading pair. That's how markets work — you pair the asset with the most used asset for trading, which is fiat.

2. ? ? ?

"Chain-inflation": I can create my own version of the USD, but it wouldn't do crap with the economics of the USD. Same with with the bitcoin-forks.

Your assumption makes little sense to me, first being paired to fiat does not make Bitcoin "fiat bound". What does fiat bound even mean?
And Bitcoin did not suffer inflation at all to have had a worse inflation that fiat currencies, it's a deflationary asset.

This makes no sense again. Your banks are also supposed to show you the value in your account adjusted for inflation, no?

Partially i sensed it to be without fiat one would not be able to purchase bitcoin at the first place, being that for a trade to occur you must first make a deposit of fiat then possibly convert or trade to usdt before buying bitcoin. This is what i senses by op saying fiat bound, actually when dealing with bitcoin and fiat they both has interrelationship whereby to spend your bitcoin need a fiat and maybe, might be the same to stores that accepts bitcoin but in real life we must need to sell to fiat before finally spending it. However, Op should try to making his post a bit comprehensible for better interaction.

the OP chose a $1 btc on specific date of 2011 to try to set a bad premiss.. .. because in 2011 the price of bitcoin ranged from $0.30-$30
meaning he could have chose any other random date of 2011 and it would have produced different results

EG if he picked the $0.30 price date, the 'inflation correction" of today would show a different amount to his inflation adjusted position of $12k calculation

inshort if he picked the price of july 11th next month for a 2011-2023 comparison .. his maths would be totally different to this months math. making his math pointless

inshort if he picked the price of May 11th last month for a 2011-2023 comparison .. his maths would be totally different to this months math. making his math pointless
...
if you want to talk about inflation/deflation... use the CPI(consumer price index) as a measure. or more simply "the bread loaf purchase"

if in 2011 1btc was 1 loaf of bread and $1fiat  was one loaf of bread
in 2023 1btc is 10,000 loaves of bread and $1 is 0.4 of a loaf of bread

yep you CANT buy bread for $1 now, because now it averages $2.50
yet with bitcoin you can buy 10,000 loaves of bread for 1btc

bitcoin does not follow or react to fiat inflation.. bitcoin has its own market where deflation occurs. not inflation.

the mechanisms of fiat is that it buys you less produce. due to how the fiat market works
the mechanisms of bitcoin is that it buys you more produce. due to how the bitcoin market works

You raise some provocative points here, with an edgy touch! Has Bitcoin's growth been as stellar as we've been led to believe? What happens when we throw inflation into the mix? While your inflation-adjusted analysis holds water, I think it's worth noting that the appreciation of Bitcoin, even accounting for inflation, is impressive. Sure, 12k USD isn't 25k USD, but it's still an astronomical growth! Who among us, in 2011, could've predicted that?

On the claim that Bitcoin is FIAT-bounded, well, aren't all assets? Gold, stocks, properties, they're all quoted in terms of fiat. It's a byproduct of how our current financial system operates. As for Bitcoin forks, I must ask - do they genuinely count towards Bitcoin's "chain-inflation?" Each fork is a separate entity, with different demand, supply, and market perception. They're from the same family tree, yes, but they're not identical twins. You may argue that these forks dilute the Bitcoin brand, but that's an entirely different conversation, isn't it?

Are you curious about why the price of Bitcoin has increased in relation to fiat currency inflation? It may seem contradictory since Bitcoin is also part of the economy and can be affected by inflation. However, the price of Bitcoin has risen primarily because of increased investor interest and demand. Bitcoin has a limited supply, and with more people investing in it, the demand has surpassed the available quantity, leading to a higher price. This is the fundamental reason behind the price surge.

I want to sell you a coin for 40 000! Do I get buyers?
I want to buy a coin for 20 000! Do I get sellers?

I want to buy/sell for around 25000, I can get trades all over the world, then that must be the price!
Inflation is as relevant as the cum stains left on a hotel bed in June, 11th, 2011!

Bitcoin become a part of the economy now,most of the unemployed people working in the bitcoin to earn the money.The bitcoin supply was limited now,So based on the demand and supply the bitcoin price will increase subsequently.The demand for bitcoin will increase and not possible one for the entire demand fulfilled by the supply.Because the mining of bitcoin is stopped but the demand increase with every year.

Don't know what bitcoin you're using, but from my experience bitcoin since 2011 has remained Deflationary. It has retained and even increased upon its initial value if we'll use the 2011 value of bitcoin as a standard. It's not fiat-bounded, as bitcoin could persist without the support of the dollar or any other currency for that matter. In some countries it's even being used as a substitute for the dollar or their national currency. So it seems to me that all your claims about bitcoin have been wrong.

Idk about that bro, might wanna check your maths instead of trolling people here? Might wanna check the charts before supposing stuff?
