Bitcoin: 100x Housing Costs Expose Fiat Debasement

Michaël van de Poppe underscores the slow erosion of purchasing power, where a 1950s property purchase at $7,500 now demands $800,000 in Amsterdam, equating to 100x appreciation over eight decades.

Historical data on asset inflation since the 1950s shows Bitcoin delivering superior risk-adjusted returns versus housing, equities and commodities in recent 12-month windows.

Price action on the 4h chart shows Bitcoin at $81555.51 inside the Bollinger Bands with upper resistance at $82690.59, while the EMA50 at $82216.95 and EMA200 at $82047.04 cap upside; the MACD golden cross supports continuation yet the neutral RSI at 45.64 suggests a likely retracement toward the $82216.95 EMA50 before any sustained push higher.
