April might have been higher measured in dollars... But we all know that the dollar is useless as a tool for comparison since it fluctuates like crazy with announcements of infinite printing of more dollars and lack of announcements of infinite printing of dollars. But if you use gold as a comparison Bitcoin did actually reach ATH in October: With log scale:

Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

What would it look like when priced against real estate, DOW, or SMP-500?

We're also at our all time high according to 7 day EMA. This is important as it implies that our current price level may be more stable than it was in April of this year. We were only above $200 for a very short period of time. Now we may be below $200, but we've been in this area for much longer than we were in April.

You could do the same calculation with CNY and get nearly identical results.

Thanks for this thread. And thanks for pointing out that site. Is there also a way to see automatic updating graphs like this?

The logic is that of Gold would go up that high, bitcoin should (in order to hold its value) go up as well. Which sort of makes sense, considering the similarities between gold and Bitcoin.

but that means the dollar increased in value meantime, shouldn't be the opposite considering printing money and debt problems?

1. Debt is deflationary. 2. Printing (at least in the US) does not happen without debt creation. 3. Gold fell during this time, which is why this chart looks stronger. 4. As explained above, these graphs have no relation to the value of fiat.

Not necessarily, for 3 reasons: 1) Much of the printed money is flowing overseas due to the trade deficit. 2) If you look, the public debt is decreasing, meaning the private debt must be increasing even faster. That's deflationary. 3) Gold is currently in an over-corrected state due to its last bubble crash. Gold does the exact same thing Bitcoin does, only to a lesser extent.
