This is an interesting way to approach the 'real' price of Bitcoin... I've seen many people do similar things. I guess one of the most prominent being rpietila, you know the guy with the castle and the pink car. Haha, man... he's awesome!
He predicted 1 Million per coin back then. I wonder where does he stand nowadays and if he still believes that will happen and when.
He claims he dumped a lot of his bitcoins for monero. He may have been pumping and dumping.

He did, but he's only pumping Monero, not dumping it. Smiley

Yeah that was really puzzling me, seeing someone like him really falling for an altcoin. If any crypto succeeds it will most likely be Bitcoin, there's no reason to invest in anything else - it really is just exposing you to more risk.

I think altcoins breaks that theory cuz they reduce people interests to bitcoin.

Well they actually only water down the amount of money that goes into BTC. But since they only account for about 5% of the whole market cap they don't really matter at all actually. There is still no coin on the horizon that may be a real threat to BTC, maybe one day we will see one but I think the chances aren't exactly high.

An altcoin like Monero can succeed alongside Bitcoin in the privacy niche.

Please, Sirs, let's keep this thread clean.

There are other threads to talk about Risto or/and Monero or/and any altcoin vs bitcoin.

Thank you.

Trolololo thanks for the charts. Are you interested in releasing the spread sheet so that we can easily update the spread per your formula?

This is a good idea, besides that, can we have an update? Thank you for your relentless good work

Since some days ago we are in record undervaluation: -81%

When a model results in such a large difference with respect to reality, it's time to abandon the model.
Some may prefer to abandon reality though... Wink

Sometimes, if it looks too bullish, it's actually bearish

I'm working on a public Google spreadsheet that:
- auto-updates daily prices, and
- auto-executes the "solver" command to find the best parameters.

But it will take some time...

Hi Trolololo,

I love your graphs and I think they are a good estimation. Thank you.
I just think, that there are some wrong assumptions.

1. The price is depending on the dollar. That means, that the fed printing money or stopping can change that. In the worst case they can for example move a lot of money of the market and let everything dive into worst deflation. That could change the graph completely and turn it maybe upside down. I suggest to use GOLD as comparision currency. Can you use the graph estimation depending on ounces or grams of gold? I guess it could be a little more stable as well.



2. I don't think that the function is accurate for long term. With the dollar it may look like the right one an may also look like that later if the fed is continuing to ease. If you switch to gold you need definitely a function with a supremum. If the adaption is complete bitcoin shouldn't change much any more to gold...

regards
Oliver

I think I saw a infographic somewhere stating for BTC to be 1% of the world economy, it would have to be priced around $10,000 for 1 bitcoin.

Hi, Lord Oliver

1.- The resulting parameters would be almost identical. Dollar and gold relationship is very stable compared to bitcoin...

2.- The logarithmic function is quite nice for a medium term horizon (1 or 2 years from now) and it's much better than the linear one.
But it's not as accurate in the long term. As I have stated in former posts, I would prefer an asymptotic function for the long term.

Regards.

Yes I know, that its kind of stable compared to bitcoin, but still it defuses a little the spike in 2011 for example. That may make your graphs of the early years a little less diverge.
The only problem with gold is, that its price is manipulated. It would normally (and does sometimes, if manipulation failes) follow the bitcoin spikes a little as the bitcoin price is also (of course minor but still) driven by bad economy.

Cool chart, but the bitcoin price just overwhelms it. The trend lines look practically identical to what I've drawn on my own long term chart, priced in USD.

Trolololo, I don't know if you know me or not, but I'm a big fan.  How much of a donation would it require to get you to create a chart like this for Monero? (even though I know we only have a year of history to go off of)
