 Okay so once again I pose the question if I can't compare BTC/USD and xmr/USD to show how one is out appreciating another. Or you don't like xmr/BTC cause the BTC price is based in  usd. 

How do you compare two assets?

Btw fuck Bitcoin magazine and David Bailey. 

Fuck those fuckin fucks

 There's no way to compare *any* two assets except through USD. 

That's the problem.

We need an energy-based unit of account in order to have accurate pricing.
Until we have that, pricing is fucked.

 The thread is just about the hypocrisy of Maxis using USD-denominated measurements when it suits their narrative,
but shitting on fiat measurements the rest of the time.

I was shocked to learn that they, in fact, don't understand unit of account at all.

oh
and how does Bitcoin magazine play into it?
