This is statment is complete nonsense: "A scaled time axis, on the other hand, makes no sense at all, because we want the change from 2022 to 2023 to be exactly equal to the change from 2011 to 2012. The amount of time in a year is constant. If we were to log-scale time, we are effectively modelling the real-world time to pass increasingly faster. That is ridiculous." NO! It means that we are showing it takes longer longer for changes of magnitude in price to change in time. That is EXACTLY what a power law in time would do. Do you realize a power law is simply y=a t^n? Are you saying we cannot have an asset that behaves in that way? If such an asset existed and you plotted in on a log-log graph it would look bunched up in time exactly like BTC looks like. Please learn to understand stuff instead of spewing equations and not understand what they mean.
