That graph is hilarious. If euros looked like that, nobody would be using them.

    That's comparing apples to oranges. What you want to compare to Euros are charts for stable coins. Which, for the legitimate ones that are fully backed, are basically horizontal straight lines.

    The other commenter was trying to use that chart to tell us that cryptocurrencies are somehow better than fiat currencies as a store of value, despite their wild swings in value in the most stable one that isn't backed by fiat currency.
