I took this picture at about block 416,220](https://mempool.marc26z.com/block/000000000000000003b64da342d6d24d066ea5c961e21fdf57cae4318eab3616)(June 13, 2016). The price of eggs on that day was $1.99, 16.5¢ per egg if you still measure stuff with the broken ruler we call fiat. What if we measured the price in sats instead? I found the price on that date from the bitbo calender. According to this website, $1.99 was worth 260,000 sats back then. Each egg cost 21,667 sats! Oh My Zeus!😱 I took this picture at about block [416,220](https://mempool.marc26z.com/block/000000000000000003b64da342d6d24d066ea5c961e21fdf57cae4318eab3616)(June 13, 2016).

I used this [mempool calculator](https://mempool.marc26z.com/tools/calculator) to see how much that is today. Turns out that it's $272.88 as of block 879,943. Since the fiat ruler is broken, the price of a dozen eggs also has NGU. I took this picture the last time I went to the grocery store. Eggs cost enough to shock fiat maxis. $8.99 OMZ!😱 I used this [mempool calculator](https://mempool.marc26z.com/tools/calculator) to see how much that is today.
