>very interesting article
https://medium.com/@100trillionUSD/modeling-bitcoins-value-with-scarcity-91fa0fc03e25

>TL;DR
Here is the thing fags: Scarcity (stock/flow = SF) drives prices. When it comes to BTC, the scarcity is intrinsically related to the happening of miner subsidy "halving", every 4 year.

An autistic used his math skills to predict BTC price thru a logarithmic model of scarcity.
His model fits the 2016 halving price of 8K (which happened with a 16 month delay) and the May 2020 halving price (which is happening now with a 10 month delay).
Gold & Silver interestingly fits his model as well.

He also notices that "The possibility of a power law with 95% R2 over 8 orders of magnitude, adds confidence that the main driver of bitcoin value is correctly captured with SF. [...] Every halving, bitcoin SF doubles and market value increases 10x."

>> No.28844433

the model predicts a may 2024 halving price of $500K.
next halving price could occur without delay this time, since crypto is going mainstream & central banks QE is massively flooding the economy with liquidity.

Bitcoin is a SoV asset now. You need to see the big picture. We are nearly at 1T marketcap, and 2T is easy now.

Bitcoin won. It isn't some speculative asset driven up by retail investors. It has established strong floors at 40k though institutional demand.

It is NOW too big to fail, it needs value, because institutions are now hoarding wealth in it.

TRDL - was sceptical at first by the whole btc burning, but it seems the peg of vBTC to BTC can be easily maintained. Competitor of REN at a fraction of their mcap
PLT - AAVE competitor at a fraction of their mcap. This one gets fudded a lot right now, but so was Rubic at the very start. They seem to be delivering so far which is a good indicator.
PRVS - pic related since this morning. An anon shilled this about one hour ago. He got only 1 reply (from me) but the thread died pretty quick. Unique use case, 2.5M diluted mcap, still on testnet. Might have to be patient with this one but it does feel unironically early.

My vision is that the Fed is going to set negative interest rates for the banks in order to encourage the monetary creation and the velocity into the real economy, no matter what. It's been the case for Japan and more recently for EU as well. The economy is in bad shape due to coivd (or rather, the hysterical government reaction to this Plandemic).
Either the crash is planned and you'll see a rush in tangible asset like PM and crypto especially BTC. Or, whats happening is beyond the globalists control and they are trying whatever they can to prevent a crash, negative interest rates being the last hope. They are driving us into a deflationary situation to prevent an hyperinflation which could happen anyway.

scarcity will soon drift from the model as years go by tho. unless inflation rate keeps up at an astronomical pace, there wont be enough money in the world to keep up with the model years down the line. a simple way to think about this is that the more money there is in a system, the harder it is to move around. its also why you get diminishing returns, not just btc but is any asset category.

Putting interest rates to zero has the opposite effect the fed believes. As future safe income from capital is destroyed it INCREASES saving as people try to save now to offset the lost future income, thereby decreasing the velocity of money in the real economy while driving up asset prices. The fed can’t see this as they unironically suffer from the 110 iq academic syndrome.

s2f assumes a continuous exponential increase, but you can easily see mining entire astroids made of diamond or bloating the inflation to make a cup of coffee cost a few hundred bucks still wont make the numbers match.
it should be more of an S curve instead, as all tech adoptions follow. but we're only at the foot so s2f is spot on. it will drift slowly but surely.

Central banks around the world have been lowering rates for decades in a bit to expand the economy by taking on more debt, and now these days when we have so much more debt as % of GDP (public/corporate/household) than we ever have (that is collectively, there have been times where public/household/corporate was individually higher than now), and they're shocked that people don't take out more debt just because rates are 0%? People are not as retarded as monetary policy "experts" think. Who in their right mind would take out a long term loan nowadays to buy something when they know that when interest rates go up that asset will fall in value so they'll lose equity in it AND their repayments will be higher? Taking out a loan in a long term low rate environment is literally shooting yourself in the foot. The only way can they eventually go is up and the longer they stay at 0% the more asset inflation there will be, and therefore the harder asset crash there will be. Negative rates have 0% chance of being implemented at the consumer level.

>> No.28855160

>>28854604
The key here is that the Central Bankers realise what they are doing. But they lost control. They tried to do the same thing they did to Japan in the 90s, Thailand later on, Greece, Ireland, Spain and Italy...they are trying to manufacture bubbles for the IMF and the World Bank and their interest partners (GS, JPM, BlackRock etc etc) so that their vulture capitalism can gobble up assets on the cheap.
The thing is that ever since 2007/2008 it became apparent that these bubbles happening in the EU and the US actually threaten the very assets and the power of the Central Banks and the other banks, so they had to bail themselves out through tax payers and then leveraged their cash and bought up the assets from normal people and middle class bankruptcies.
But now we are trapped in this ever increasing cycle and honestly the only way out that I can see is if the central banks collude with China and somehow manage to align their interests with chinese interests, essentially shifting the capitalist centres of power to china.

I agree with the other anon. As long as capitalist structures themselves dont shift away from the US - which we will not see due to the nature of capitalism, nepotism, family ties and so on - to China, the Central Banks of the western world have their hands tied to their backs. They might want to fuck the people and the governments over, but in doing so they would essentially destroy themselves, so this is not a very attractive proposition. If China does not become an attractive safe haven for capitalism in the next 50 years, we will never see an escape from negative rates. If China does become capitalisms new global HUB then the US and the EU will just crash.

Yes, that is exactly my point. China's government does not want to share power with capitalists, they do not see any net positives in that, as they can safely assess what corruption and greed does to formerly sovereign states: government becomes just another arm of the banker's interests. I look at this completely without emotions right now, sure, as a person it would suck for me, as I am German and while the EU would likely have a better position with China than the US, it would still mean that our quality of life would decrease. I am not even convinced that China will ever bend it's knees to Anglo-Saxon, Germanic and Jewish interests, I think their history has made them very weary of foreign influence.
