 very nice... see, it does demonstrate my point, the data is much closer to a line in the log2

yes, i remember, actually, there is a nice simple web script you can make with a html embedding some CDN scripts and you push the data points into it and it renders a nice graph... i used it with a difficulty adjustment graph that compared hashrate to the block time

i think what i am digging at is that there is a particular curve that fits the chart closest to a linear progression, it could be log e, or maybe a little under 2, like maybe even the square root of 2 is a better fit

the purpose of the exercise is to illustrate how over 15 years there has been a fairly consistent path in the price curve that probably can be expected to continue, really, you probably can just overlay and offset the correct power curve line as the normal level but seeing it linear and scaled to make the SDs the same width helps a lot in understanding it i think
