What about something like "1 gold bar price*7.4"? It would keep up with inflation way more. Currently 1kg of gold has a value around 135.992€ btw

[I am not an economist, i am just a random dude who thought it was a good idea due to gold value having always the same value or smth like that]

Gold markets are too volatile.
