I am curious. What price data are you using for 2009 and 2010? BTC/USD closed at 0.300 in December 2010 and the "pizza valuation" placed the BTC/USD rate at 0.0025 in May 2010.  387% is way low for 2010 by several orders of magnitude. My understanding is a BTC/USD rate of about 0.001 in January 2010.

2009 Exchange RateThis is a featured page
BitcoinDuring 2009 my exchange rate was calculated by dividing $1.00 by the average amount of electricity required to run a computer with high CPU for a year, 1331.5 kWh, multiplied by the the average residential cost of electricity in the United States for the previous year, $0.1136, divided by 12 months divided by the number of bitcoins generated by my computer over the past 30 days.
