What is it: This shows bitcoin's ROI vs other potential inflation hedge assets.
Why it matters: As with the historical bitcoin price table, we see bitcoin's extreme outperformance vs other assets here as well. Bitcoin's relatively small size, plus fundamental properties, yield extreme outperformance when even relatively small funds-flows find their way to BTC.

- The Path-Dependence of Bitcoin
- Finite and Infinite Games
- A New Epoch for Money
- Fiat Currency Always Falls to Zero
- The Separation of Money and State
EXCERPT
