Forget all indicators , sentimental and fundamental discussion! Did any one calculate the theoretical value of BTC and identify its variance from the actual price?

values (note the s) is the features and benefits.
value(no s) is the financial number

anyway value, based on how i view it. and it has worked well for me over the years to view the value window which the bitcoin price sits within at any given time

network hashrate   203,000,000thash
hashrate/asic unit   140   thash
hardware cost/unit   $11,620   
      
asics running      1,450,000   
hardware cost 2 year   $16,849,000,000   
hardware cost /block   $160,467   
hardware cost /coin   $25,675   
      
hardware kw/unit   3.01   kw
hardware kw network   4,364,500   kw
      
cheapest asic power cost per kwh $0.04   
cheapest network power cost per hour   $174,580.00   
cheapest network power per block   $29,096.67   
cheapest network power per coin   $4,655.47   
lowest 'value'   $30,330.13 (hardware+power cost per btc $25,675+$4,655.47)
      
expensive asic power cost per kwh $0.38   
expensive network power cost per hour   $1,658,510.00   
expensive mine power/block   $276,418.33   
expensive mine power/coin   $44,226.93   
highest value   $69,901.60  (hardware+power cost per btc 25,675+$44,226.93)

thus value window is between $30k-$70k
and no its not a coincidence that while hashrate has been in this range that the price has been bouncing between $30k-$70k

no one on the planet can mine for less than $30k. hense good buy support at $30k because no one wants to sell at a loss, as no one can profit at below $30k

everyone on the planet can mine for less than $70k. hense good sell resistance  at $70k because no one wants to buy at premium, as everyone can mine for less than $70k

6 months ago, previous asics were ~50% less efficient and the hashrate was ~50% less(balancing out). thus the window was about the same back then too


Between all comments that I got , I agree with you more than anyone else , but there are still countries may hire cheaper electricity !

Many Russian oligarchs recently changed their rubles to BTC, pumped the coin and shortly sold them out in trade with properties in Turkey and Dubai , maybe this is the reason that now bitcoin is playing between 30k and 31K.

Do you have any proof of this? I've seen that mentioned a few times by some youtubers and there were people who looked for any proof in the blockchain and could find none. Since the sanctions were imposed there wasn't any change in volume coming from Russia. The only pump that we've seen in the recent month was the one coming from Luna.

Bitcoin isn't trading at 30k because of the Russians. If you're looking for explanations, open a chart for Nasdaq for the last 3 months and compare it with bitcoin.

What is the real value? It's really hard to say, but I don't agree with people who say that the price we see on centralized exchanges is the value. In fact it has very little to do with real value and a great example of that is the crash in 2020, where 1 day it was trading for around 8k USD and 2 days later it was 4k, so what was the real value back then? 4k? 8k? A week after the crash iut was 7k again, so maybe 7 was the real value?
Exchanges suffer from lack of liquidity and they can't be used to measure value. All they can do is show price, but even that should be taken with a grain of salt, which is why we have moving averages.
