98% of Bitcoin trading volume over the past six months was in Chinese Renminbi

Thank you for pointing that out, mixed axis charts are bad enough in most cases, but to have one inverted seems a little sketchy.

So basically the chart really says:
It costs more Renminbi to buy a Bitcoin today than it did last year.
It cost more Renminbi to buy a Dollar today than it did last year.
Because of the inverted and truncated axis it’s hard to tell what relative change these two trends had.
My eyeballing says Renminbi to buy a Bitcoin is up around 200% while Renminbi to buy a Dollar is only up around 8%.
