This quote from a recount by Stefan Zweig of the Weimar hyper-inflation:

The State cranked up the printing presses to create as much paper money as possible but it could not keep pace with inflation so every town and city and finally every village began printing its own ‘emergency currency’, which would not be accepted in the neighbouring village, and later on when it was recognised that it had no intrinsic value at all, was usually just thrown away.

Bitcoin is today’s ’emergency currency’.

I believe that should result in fairly flat lines for the top 0.1% net worth and for M2, and a plummeting line for the bottom 50% net worth, which imo is both quicker to grasp, and a more vivid representation of reality.
