No.
Measuring against fiat is a mistake. Bitcoin's success or failure is in giving people the opportunity to *opt out of fiat* and transact directly with each other.
Looking to fiat price to measure purchasing power is A metric, but it's not THE metric.

That isn’t something you decide. Fiat is a marker and while it exist as the dominate currency people will use it to determine the relative value of things. An alternative monetary network that constantly loses purchasing power is not successful because the state already provides that service. For bitcoin or anything else to be a success it must defeat Fiat. To defeat Fiat it must maintain its purchasing power and be low friction to use.
