Report, today
Constructive backdrop
Near term cool, and at or below the long-term model trend. Historically a calmer setting for long-horizon holders.
Historical measurements, not a prediction, and not a signal to buy or sell.
Power Law model trend
A straight line on a log chart: price against days since Bitcoin's first block, 3 January 2009.
It is a published empirical fit (Santostasi and Perrenod), in US dollars. The bands at one and two sigma are the model's assumption, not a guarantee.
Other currencies use that day's own exchange rate between the two prices.
