That a volatile asset like bitcoin hasn’t kept up with inflation (at least since the last ATH) is a bit of a red herring when considering how far it has come. A bitcoin in someone’s wallet today, for instance, would be worth $48,395.13 in 2008, when it was first launched and didn’t have a market value at all. Bitcoin first hit parity with the U.S. dollar in February 2011, and has been gaining ever since.
