Basically in the plots anything going up or down is doing to relative to the asset the plot is denominated in.
Open Transactions markets are any asset vs any asset at any scale that is a power of ten. So you can trade any pairs you want with it.

Maybe you can explain to everyone how something like devcorp has estimated assets of over 4514647467611 dvc?
If people requested their dvc where would they get it from?
That is what happens when you try to use cryptocoins as "units of account".
It is just like what they do at those market cap sites. You take the purported current value of one coin and pretend that it will not change no matter how many you are speaking of.
You get the same kind of effect if you try to express the assessed tax value of a town or city and stuff like that.
Cryptocoins act weird as units of account. Dollars would maybe do the same too if you used them to try to measure things that are very large compared to the number of dollars that have been printed or even the number purportedly in bank balances.
Maybe the numbers make more sense when expressed in Martian BotCoins?
